This is the first time we have grown auto flowers and they seem to be doing really well!!! I took the Strawberry Banana and the Knows Candy out of the tent and put them outside. They where not showing signs of flowering yet and my tent is too small for 6 healthy plants. They are thriving outside!!! starting to shoot pistals. The autos do not like too much of anything and they seem to like even less light time then the 18. At about 16 hrs they start to droop. So this week we are lowering to 16 hrs. Also they need a good trim to let the light in a little deeper. Next time we are getting better lighting. Overall we are really impressed with these Fast Buds Auto!!!

@RonnieB, hello, I followed your advice and it showed results after 1 week!! The buds are starting to turn up in these last few weeks!!! I still think they will go until the 3rd week of October. The temp is dropping to the mid 30f at night and highs up to 70f during the day. I appreciate your advice and I will update pics and feed schedule later today. Thanks bro

@love_2_grow, Hey thanks! we have not watered in a week and deduced it to over watering. They seem to be bouncing back!

@CoosCanyonCannabis207, Overall, they look healthy although I agree that the reason the leaves hang in the first pic might be overwatering. The plants look a bit pale green but that could be the color of the pics. If they really are that pale then you might have a nitrogen deficiency.

Hey there friend. Congratulations on getting into growing cannabis! Would you be alright with me offering some pointers to help? So cannabis plants LOVE heat and humidity. It is the buds that hate it. In veg we want to take advantage of this fact to help our plants grow along much quicker and more vigorously. In veg we can look for temps of 79-84 MAX with lights on & no more than 9 degrees less with lights off. If we allow for too much temperature swing between lights on and lights off while the plant is still growing vertically up to day 20 of flower, We will cause the plant to stretch ALOT which we do not want. So in veg & early flower, Keeping our temperature gaps nice and close between lights on and off is key. Utilizing humidity in our rooms during veg will also help out a lot with more rapid growth but we must introduce it properly. In our rooms we have our temperature and humidity set-points, But when we combine those 2 it forms a third set-point which is the most important & that is called VPD, Vapor pressure deficit. I strongly recommend every new grower or old grower who has not learned it yet, To study and understand it & implement it into your room, Logging your numbers daily. https://cerescann.com/importance-of-measuring-vpd/ For soil, We generally want to go for a PH of 6.1 This website does a GREAT job of illustrating it with a nice graph & very good detailed explanation for soil. https://autoflowerseedshop.com/cannabis-ph-chart-guide/ As we briefly touched on before, During veg & early flower we want our temperature gap's nice and tight to avoid stretch. Why exactly our plants stretch in response to this is a genetic trigger being activated by the environmental stress essentially telling the plant the end of the season is closer than it really is. In veg & early flower the plant is still in its first stage of development which is to grow up wide and tall so when it produces seed, It can cast them out nicely. Remember, Whether we are growing our plants for seed or bud their genetic responses do not change as they do not know any different. Once the plant has finished that first stage of growth by weeks 4-6 of flower with most strains, It is by day 20 of flower. Autoflowers you have to watch for it, But once the plant has finished this goal its new mission is to focus 100% on producing nice big flower clusters & to get very sticky so it can attract pollen to it successfully. So once that vertical growth is finished, We actually now want to begin to expose our plants to larger temperature swings between lights on and lights off. This will help activate that genetic response and allow us to draw out the most potential from the strain utilizing the plants genetic triggers to environmental stresses at the right times. We can also take this a step further with doing light deprivation in the last 2 weeks using less light to simulate cloud cover. Very cold feed temps on the last flush is very good too. If you do not have them already, Get yourself a good PAR meter & thermal laser temp gun to monitor your plant top temperatures & optimize how much light your plants are getting. We are currently in the middle of producing a very comprehensive tutorial series for everybody to learn from & understand how to grow the highest level craft cannabis all on their own. Our first 2 installments are focusing on the basic fundamentals and we are using autoflowers for them before moving onto more advanced series with photoperiods. If this interests you please check out our youtube and subscribe. The first 2 episodes are out the next one is coming in a few days. If you should ever have any questions or need any help, Please feel free to follow my profile and shoot me a DM. I will gladly help you with the pull down & make sure you get the best quality harvest possible as it is the most important step of the entire process. Happy growing friend!

I dropped the ball with updating my grow weeks. We have a pretty big outdoor grow and coupled with the growing and harvest of these autos indoor, I have a million pics and they are easily mistook for one plant or another. so please bare weith me if you see the same pic in multiple weeks. I was not trying to mix anyone up. I have lost track of which one is which in many pics lol. if there is any clearification needed please ask and i will do my best to work it out. I still need to add and update these weeks and the harvest. We are very please with most of our bud and we will be growing again after we harvest our outdoor. We are going to have a ton of trimming to accomplish and i may have over done it a bit. I will keep you posted on the grow there as well. Thanks for checking out our first auto grow!!!!

We are going to start up again after our outdoor harvest. We have fast bud strains we put outdoors and they are almost 7 feet tall and look like a photo period monster!!!! I am going to start up a new grow diary with them after i finish these!!! We are going to keep growing Fast Buds and would love to rep you up here in Maine!!

Or it could be as simple as the plant reaching its end reading for harvest. Has water intake gone down? If so you're ready or almost. 1st sign of amber let the plant dry 10 days in the pot. If still watering use ice water. This will get you a few more trichomes.

Looks to be over watering and lack of nutrients. But at week 11? You shouldn't be be dosing any calmag at this point. At week 8-12 I use 1/8 top phosphorus, 1/4 potassium. 1/16 kelp, 1/8 humic, 1/4-1/2 silica, pinch of yucc, 1/8 full up, 1/8 omniA, 1/4 molasses. 1/16 enzymes, 1/4 amino acids along with 1 tsp of Bloom. I use raw npk though. Their npk values are extremely high. But ever since I added grow and bloom to this feed chart with 1 liter of runoff per watering and next weed ph water enzymes and algae. I haven't had any yellowing or drooping leaves. Have you checked your ppm of your run off compared to what's going in? If run off is higher. You need to skip 2 or 3 feeds
