Another Barneys edition. I always look forward to any Barneys strains. I found this one trying to grow sideways in the medium, so I helped it up above ground. Hope it makes it. At least colyton turned green. Update: she’s standing now but no leaves only colyton. Any suggestions? Update: some growth coming out finally. Im not starting 1st week until 1st set of leaves are properly out.

Grew well in the past week. Going to transplant into bigger pot sometime this week. Transplanted today as it was getting too big for the small pot. Give it a say to settle then im going to top it.

Did the first topping, planning to top one more time. So far this plant has grown well considering it had a slow start.

Another week by still making its grounds building itself. Growing smoothly without issues so far hoping it keeps that way. No sign of pistils yet hopefully by coming week. @barneys Day40: was getting thick and messy with leaves all over the place. Reduced the thickness of leaves and kept it clean.

Everything seems fine except height. It is in mid stretch now and it is not growing tall. I noticed this with my first mainline there was no height just stayed short. Confuse why it is not stretching more like some other growers have with their autos.

Hi bro, your main-lining is 💪. Me I am afraid to do that training for Automatic, I made some lst, topping and I was unhappy with the results. I will follow your grow to see your result's technique. Have a nice sunday. 💪🌿🤘

Use a bottle of water and read the PH on the information sleeve. Adjust your pen untill it says that number. I do it that way too. That water has to be correct ph from food administration laws. I also think she is a bit overwatered. She can still bounce back friend, 🙂🙏

@Clutch, my new pen arrived today. Lets see if there’s any improvements now hopefully

@Chilipadi, i always calibrate in beginning of the grow with test solution /liquid. After that with water. Some bottles are 7,2 ph, others are 7,5ph. It's accurate if u check it every week 🙂
Chilipadi
Chilipadicommented3y
@Clutch, oh i do that every feed actually. I have some solution and I calibrate the pen every use.

Beautiful training, nice manifold👌👌.. One day I'll try to manifold an automatic, just never seem to find the time, Auto's always seem to start flowereing to quick. So topping and training works well for now!!! Sending some luck!!!

@northernMike, thanks mate! Not all autos respond the same its a matter of finding the right strain. Sometimes u just need to test it to find out which im doing
