White LSD Auto Fem Summer 2018

Germinated using paper towel and distilled water, sealed in a plastic sandwich bag. 3 days later planted in soil. 3 days later the sprout was over one inch. On the seventh day, I put the sprouts under a 1000w LED light, inside a foil lined veg chamber, for 24/7.

5 seeds started. 3 germinated. 2 Sprouted and started growing. 1 took off like a monkey from a box, nice big fat healthy looking leaves. The other plant had a definite and obviously slower growth rate. The second plant, it's sprout looked great, normal cotyledons. The second and third set of leaves appeared on time but growth stagnated for about ten days. Three weeks into the grow the two plants are called Alpha and Beta for the obvious size difference. Beta's growth rate has normalized. Obviously, she won't catch up but she is an estimated ten days behind in development. Even though the seeds were germinated, planted and sprouted at the same times. Their growth rates are obviously on different paths. Overall, they're both looking good and happy. I'll move them both to the tent and 2k light next week.😃

Both Alpha and Beta are coming along very very nicely. I am impressed with the automatic flowering. Flowering started right when expected and without any change to the routine I've established for this grow. (18/6) In the pictures, you can see Alpha is flowering nicely, and Beta has just begun flowering about four days ago. Still ten days behind Alpha, but with normalized and timely growth patterns resumed. Alpha is 88 cm tall - older leaves have started to yellow and drop Beta is 65 cm tall - healthy green and strong (remember, these germinated and sprout at the same time) Leaf structure is thinning towards the top I counted 22 branches on each Alpha and Beta (ikr) Pleasing order developing,to me almost a lemony tinge to the odor This week - this grow diary is up to date with the grow

Both Alpha & Beta are doing very well. Alpha's cola is developing nicely and starting to fill in. Beta's flowering is growing strong. Both have a nice bud to branch ratio. Given that I am using LED lights, I am very happy with what it is producing. Of course, if I were using HPS or natural light, those nugs would be a bit more dense. Alpha is 90cm & Beta is 82cm I am trying to compensate with longer hours 18/6 and higher wattage at 2K. In any case, they are growing well and heading into turn 3 on the final lap.

Alpha is 94cm Beta is 90cm Alpha is working on a 21cm cola, easily 5cm+ on most other branches (22). There is about two weeks remaining on the calendar for Alpha. Hoping she will fill-in the gaps and get a little more dense. Will feed her one last time and then she will be on water only. Oh yeah, she is starting to smell pretty loud, in a very pleasant way. Beta is a few days behind and developing nicely. She is also a little more lolly-popped. So I'm hoping her nugs will be a little bigger. 😎

Alpha is 95cm Beta is 89.5cm Both are cruising along very nicely. Alpha is still showing good sign of new growth and gaining density. Beta is still about 10 days behind, but on par with Alpha's rate of growth. Although Beta did get lolly-popped a little more stringently than Alpha. Alpha should be about done next week. I sure hope so, she is looking and smelling luscious 😎

Alpha is about 95.5cm Beta is 92cm On Wednesday, I started inspecting Alpha's trichomes and found way more amber than I was expecting to see. By Friday, a couple of spots showed several bursted trichomes and an increased number with color. By the clock and calendar, she has 24 hours more, so she's a short timer. I'll take her down tomorrow night. Over the last week, Alpha has thickened up nicely. Very strong appealing smell. Sticky OMG! Flowers look like they've been sprinkled with sugar. It's going to be tough to wait for that cure.... MSNL nailed the grow time. Beta, even though she was germinated at the same time as Alpha. She had a rough time getting started. I've guesstimated her development to be about 10-12 days behind Alpha. She was lolly-popped sooner than Alpha on the timeline, and I believe that is why Beta's flowers are showing more girth than the flowers in similar positions on Alpha. Overall, I'll take Alpha tomorrow and let Beta finish out. 😎 I'll keep the diary going 'til Beta is harvested, and I'll have pics of Alpha's harvest next week.

Obituary: Alpha, was a good soul. She had a happy life. Made lots of friends. Grew to 95.5cm in 71 days. She'd still be alive today if she hadn't shown so much amber. Hadn't looked so fat and tasty with all that shimmering goodness glistening in the morning light. She weighed 54gr when she was placed in her favorite color jar, and carefully set on the shelf in the cabinet. We will think of her fondly, and often over the next few weeks. Then I'm gonna smoke her up 😎 Beta is doing great. She started showing amber yesterday. I figure she'll be coming down in two or three days. She is still showing a lot of new growth. Her flowers are getting nice and fat, some are starting to have cat ears. New growth on the flower pointed in a new direction.. Her trichomes have turned milky, she's getting close. Also, she's developed a lean, getting top heavy. Overall, I'm calling this a successful grow. Good test of the auto flowering seeds. MSNL REALLY nailed the grow time frame.

First diary, but not my first grow...so I couldn't enter the newbie contest. Had started building my own grow diary when I came across GD, so far I like it a lot. I'll be more prepared with the numbers on future grows I track here.
