Royal Jack Auto

Hi Guys. I'll grow 3 Royal Jack Auto plant. Not the first growing but i need to learn a lot. I have a homemade indoor place. 80x60x160 cm. Inside covered with styrofoam and mirror foil. Light is: Mars Hydro 300 (135W), 4 pcs of Hydroponics COB panel (50W/piece) and 3 CFL (23W/piece) Ventillation has 2 inlet 1 exhaust pipe. Light and ventillation is controlled by an Arduino controller with self wrote code. (Weeduino project) Ventillation switch on when the Temperature is higher then 23°C or Humidity is more then 70%. Mars Hydro and CFLs are on from 6pm till 12am. Because of the cooling on the COB panels are not the best the Arduino controller switcing them on/off depend of the temperature. Later on i want to control the watering system also with the Arduino but I need to find a reliable soil moisture sensor.

Unfortunately, one seed didn't come out and i think one more is also will die. I will let you know. I think it should grow faster, but something it not the best in the growing area. I will buy an Arduino data logger for monitoring the environment and a PH tester. But basically I'm using a garden well water without any nutrition.

From 4 seeds one didn't came out, one died so i have two plant. I don't really know why, but one has some root problems, and one is healthy. Trying to do with the small one. Hopefully became healthy that one too.

Slowly grow bigger and bigger. It is healthy. At the end of the week i will topping it,

On the 28th day i have transplanted to another pot. Basically it's a homemade super soil, I'm using some regular nutrients not special one. But it's working, no defficiency no issues. I have fimmed in the previous week and in this week i have topped 3 colas. Maybe will work on auto. I'm trying to make a longer vegetation stage with topping. There are no preflowers yet.

So Jack is still in vegetation stage. I have fimmed, topped, pruned and made an LST. Now i won't touch it. Healthy no defficieny or excess. Don't really know what should i do with the main cola, i'm trying to keep it down. Still get from regular nitrients, mainly it's for Dicotyledon plants, it's really working.

Flowering stage is started. So I will search some nutrient for bigger yield. I hope it will be success. Will be updated if i find something. Basically, i would like to use some "cheap" but useful nutrients. The cannabis in the "rosales" order so I will use some nutrients for roses. Trying is the real knowledge :D

Slowly became bigger and bigger. Still healthy. Every third watering is with nutrients. In the pictures doesn't seen but the leafes are dark green. So I think it has nutrient excess. The temperature is high, but i can't do anything. I'm using more fan without success. Basically i'm set the timer on at the night, to keep down the temperature. During the day from 10am till 6pm everything is off. In the shadow outside the temperature is 33-35 °C, my plants ar in the cellar where the temp is about 24°C. So 27°C in the grow box is not so bad. Maybe the high RH is good for them.

Not the best LST but I do my best. I have flushed again. So now waiting :)

Bought a tent. Setup is 120x120x200cm, 2x300m3/h vents, one inlet one exhaust. 600W dimmable ballast for 600W HPS in cooltube. Today is the 3rd day for the plant. She loves it. I'm curious, how big will be the Jack.

Dunno what's happening but still not ready for harvest...

... Still not ready. I think i made a big mistake. Should not to cut back the Autoflowering plant, I mean 3 times :D So now i have to wait. Ordered a digital microscope for the proper harvest time.

Slowly it became ready. So started to flush

I have 2 Royal AK Photo for motherplant. I've made some clone so i moved them into the Flowering Tent. But my Digital microscope came in the last days, so made some good photo :)
