Fastberry Auto my first grow

Started growing nicely no issues with the plants, humidity is low where I live I later invested in a humidifier, then a larger one.

Plants still growing well but seem a little slow, I got a humidifier at the end of the week. Unfortunately I didn't take many pictures this week.

Plants aren't growing very fast and roots were kind of slimy. I found that my reservoir temps were getting high so I began to use frozen water bottles to cool the reservoir.

Plants seem to be responding well to lower reservoir temps. This is my first time growing so I'm not sure if I'm doing the LST correctly, but it looks good to me. The roots are still a little slimy so I bought ingredients to make compost tea for next week.

Started using compost tea I brew myself, says 48tsp per gallon because there's no option for 1 cup. Plants roots look much healthier and growth is explosive this week. I've hung my unused lights to provide more light going to encourage more growth.

Growth continues to be explosive 1 plant is showing a lot of purple the other don't have I assume just a genetic trait.

Trimmed the root tips just a bit, everything looks nice, maybe I'll trim some fan leaves later in the week.

This week I jacked up the bloom nutrient to see if the plant can handle it and if it'll make the buds bigger. Thursday, added some pictures. Noticed some burned tips and clawing, going to lower micro a lot and drop bloom around 10%

Smell is getting stronger, buds seem a little thicker, keeping an eye on the trichomes getting ready to see what kind of harvest we'll get. Took some pictures with my wife's camera, a little better quality but I'm still no photographer. And added some trichome pictures.

Everything looks good I trimmed some leaves at the end of the week and got rid of a couple tiny branches on one plant that didn't have much growth on them to divert to the main flowers.

Flushing this week and watching trichomes in the home stretch. I don't think they're too terrible considering the issues I had in the beginning. I'll update on weights when it's time to chop. 7/5 chopped my bottom two plants, I think the top two plants will be a couple days later. The bottom plants didn't have much side growth like the top plants basically one cola style of growth. I trimmed out some of the stem but left most of the leaves(mostly sugar leaves) wet weight for the bottom two was 67grams 7/9 chopped the top two plants they were much nicer looking. Got 134g off the top two plants. 201g total. I'll update later when it's all dry with the final weight. 7/13 was out of town for the past 4 days due to work. Trimmed bottom plants when I got home tonight, they seemed a little over dry. Final dry weight was 10 grams. 7/15 trimmed the top plants their final weight was 21 grams. So a total of 31g for the 4 plants.

Im sure I stunted these poor plants in the beginning so I'm just happy they recovered and gave me some buds. 31g final dry weight
