48h after the seeds opened they are all up from the pellets rising toward the artificial sun. I helped them a little bit by removing the seed covers carefully and today (48h after they first arose from the pellets) all of them have opened their first true leaves.
Prepared the soil; 5l perlite, 5l vermiculate, 40l BioBizz All-mix, 10l Ugro XL Rhiza Coco coir and 250g Guanokalong pellets.
Feeding the soil with effective micro-organisms (EM-1) 10ml/1liter of water.
Foliar spraying with seaweed extract once in a while.
They are now under 450w HPS, and growing strong 💪
Did FIM topping and removed the lowest branches on day 16.
Started giving Bio grow with the hopes of lenghtening the veg period for bigger plants.
Foliar sprayed them with Jaakontaika.
They are recovering really fast from FIM topping ❤️
First pistils visible.
Started LST training on day 23.
Had a little accident in the grow room when the CO2 bag fell on top of a plant as you can see in the day 26 picture she lost 4 branches. Hoping she recovers and still produces something.
This is my first time growing autoflowers indoor and I am surprised how fast they started maturing. Usually they start showing first pistils at earliest at the end of week 4 here in colder climates in northern europe when grown outdoors. Now they did that at the beginning of week 4.
Despite the fast flowering, everything looks good in the grow room and even the damaged one is recovering quite well. One of the branches was almost completely detached but I tied it to the main branch and it recovered in two days. She lost total of 3 branches but the other branches have shown increased growth.
Flowering has really begun now in every plant. Blows my mind how fast they are.
The one that took damage has recovered so well that it is almost impossible to say that she lost three branches. What she lost there, she has gained elsewhere.
I am giving them nutes twice and then once water. Temperature was going up to 34c and more with tent door closed which I thought is a bit high so I had to run a pipe with exhaust fan in between from window to tent. Temp stays at 30-31 with tent door closed now. Also using a humidifier with a pipe attached to keep it outside the tent and air humidity stays at around 40-50%.
Hey friend those are some chunkers. Love the fan you got in there what model is it if I may ask? I am looking for some clip on's for my tent tutorial series. Would it be okay if I offered you some pointers? So im looking at your pictures before I even scrolled down I was able to tell those were formed at high temperatures I will tell you why, When we grow buds all the way through at temperatures over 80 we get bigger buds, But they are very airy and prone to foxtail. Also, the higher temps will prevent a lot of cake from forming & what does form the high temps can destroy them partially. Generally, we want to use temps of around 80-82 up to weeks 2-3 of flower then begin tapering it down to 77 with lights on by weeks 4-6. 77-80 MAX with lights on seems to be the best of both worlds size & density/cake. Also, one other thing when our plants finish their vertical growth by weeks 4-6 of flower depending on strain, Auto's you watch for it visually we want to begin to open up the temperature gap between lights on and lights off to more than 10 degrees less with lights off. At this stage, it will signal the plants to put extra energy into the budding process and resin production. It is a great tool and trick to finish those ladies up real nicely. Other methods are light deprivation to simulate cloud cover toward the end of the season and colder feed temps.
Keep up the awesome work those look beautiful. Check out my 200 light 7,000 plant diary and follow my profile. Happy growing friend!
Man the f...... size of them colas, wow. I'd love to know what's in that em1 if you get the time can you DM me what it is, seems to have had a major role and skill of course getting u der. Happy harvesting good luck.
