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.
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.
