Mexican Airlines has really taken off even though early part of the week has been indoor due to cold/damp outdoor weather.
She did get about six hours in the afternoon two days so far. I'm quite impressed by the rapid growth.
Second watering this week will be at day 28 and will be the last with extra nitrogen. Will dial it back to 1ml/gallon as well as I expect she's headed quickly towards flowering stage. Weather is prone to thunder the next few days so will end the week indoors.
So the big question is ... how tall a girl will she be? At this point, 30" looks easy but I'm thinking in the 40s after stretch phase, maybe more!
The rapid growth of Mexican Airlines (and Whiskey Zulu) creates the need to put risers underneath the other auto and my CBDs to maintain a roughly 14-16" gap between top of plant and the lights. Even though they are independently adjustable, I don't like to have too big a difference between lights. This weekend the entire garment rack will be raised by placing on milk crates or cinder blocks.
I did not mention earlier, but I do not bother with LST. At some point I expect I'll need to add support once she flowers. I also have two smaller lights which can be mounted vertically to provide side lighting to make sure her interior gets enough light.
Hey there,
Thanks a bunch for growing our Mexican Airlines Auto, and for sharing this diary with us :)
We love your photos!!
Hoping that it was a good experience, and that you enjoy the harvest!
Have a good one

(sorry if you got this twice):
What do you recommend on this girl for harvest time? She'll be through 11 weeks in a couple days and I am seeing all cloudy tris with a handful of amber. Normally I would chop in a day or so but I hesitate as she is really not dropping any leaves and only a few have yellowed at the tips. Other grows I've had lots of leaf drop/yellowing at the same time as tris moving towards amber so not sure whether to leave it alone to see if buds can fatten more or just call it a day and be happy?
Thanks for any advice, cheers!
