Started germinating seed at 1.9.2022 just after midnight.
Put the seed into water and I'm waiting for it to sink.
Day 1
Late evening it sinks and I put it in a wet towel, waiting for it to sprout.
Day 2
Seed sprouted. I put it in soil.
Having problems with high temperature (32+ Celsius ) .
Fuck global warming, always above 30°C in here.
Day 3
Nothing happens. Just patience.
Temperature 25-28°C all around the day.
Day 4
Lil bro peaked out of the soil!
Opened one of the lights (54W) and ready to roll.
Distance from plant is 50cm.
Temperatures around 30°C morning / 27°C night.
Day 5
Lil bro has stretched at around 5cm.
Just one lamp is open (54W).
Distance from plant is 45cm.
Temperatures 29-30°C morning / 27-28°C night
Day 6
It has reached around 6cm with a small curve.
Temperatures 27-28°C all around the day.
Day 7
Bro keeps expanding nicely.
Temperatures 27-28°C all around the day.
Day 8
Bro started growing 2 extra leaves.
Started using Root Juice, hopefully it gets extra strong.
Temperatures 27-28°C all day.
Humidity keeps dropping towards 30%, so I keep putting a wet towel around the pot.
Keeps humidity around 40%.
Day 9
Opened the second bulb (108W draw now).
Keep them about 50cm above my friend.
Temperatures 29°C morning / 28°C night.
Humidity 50%.
Day 10
Closed the second lamp due to temperature issues (31°C).
Now I have only the first open, hanging at 35cm. Should be OK for now. Plant gets enough PPFD.
Humidity 47%.
Day 11
Bro is still growing nicely.
Changed from 18/6 to 20/4.
Temperature is 29°C all throughout the day.
Humidity 46%.
Day 12
Temperature at 28°C all day.
Humidity 45%.
Day 13
Bro is tilting a bit, so I rotate the pot in order to get vertical again.
Temperatures 27°C all day.
Humidity 47%.
Day 14
Using a string to kinda low stress train the main stem cause it had a curve. All going fine.
Temperature 26-27°C all day.
Humidity 52%.
Nada de que preocuparse, cuando eso me pasa lo asocio a la genética de la planta, cuando todas las hojas tienen los bordes mirando hacia arriba el problema se asocia a estomas cerrados. Eso ocurre por altas temperaturas.
Yo veo tu planta bastante bien, si consideras que hay riego excesivo espera que el sustrato esté 80% seco antes de regar de nuevo. Buenos humos!!! 👌
Day 15
Starting new week strong. Buddy is around 11cm tall.
Temperatures 27°C morning / 24°C night.
Keeping humidity over 50%.
Day 16
Temperatures today rise at about 30°C with high humidity at 60%.
Letting soil to dry a bit, for the roots to spread nicely.
Day 17
Bro is now 15cm tall.
Temperatures around 29°C till afternoon with 70% humidity. Started using dehumidifier, but still it rises the overall temperature.
Leaves still like to curve, I concluded it is because of the high temp and humidity.
Day 18
Temperatures all day at 29°C..
Humidity at 30%.
Wattered a bit, not a good idea, but gonna recover.
Temp at night 24°C.
Day 19
Saw some yellow leaf tips on the new growth, guess it was from nutrient burn.
Gonna use water, water, feed method.
Temperatures 28°C morning/24°C night.
Humidity 40%.
Day 20
Temperatures 28-29°C day / 24 night.
Humidity 35%.
Day 22
Yo I'm expecting big growth next week, tucked some huge fan leaves under the new nodes, as advised from a question.
Temperature sweet 25.5°C all day.
Need more humidity though cause it drops at 30%.
Day 23
Started using LST. Trying to spread the new branches so they all get the light they need.
Temperature 25°C/22°C night.
Humidity 40%.

Day 27
Still tucking her leaves, so she gets an even canopy. Counting 11 branches.
Temperature 27°C day/24° night.
Humidity 50%.
Day 28
Temperatures 28°C day/24 night.
Humidity 40%.
for soil 6.0 is too low, target 6.3-6.4
Look at any nutrition absorption and ph graph
https://www.growweedeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/hydroponics-ph-chart-marijuana.jpg
calcium cut off zone, when plant cant utilize - 6.0
hope its clear, overwatering is bad thing too
lift pots, have a habit, you will catch it soon, best and ONLY way !!!
Day 29
Currently recovering from an overwatering issue and some slight pH imbalance.
Going strong though.
Temperatures kinda high today (28°C day /25°C night).
Humidity 50%.
Day 30
Watered with a bit of Calmag with 6.5 pH.
Temperatures 29°C day / 25°C night.
Humidity 50%.
Hade to be away for a few days.. So..
Also changed the light schedule to 18/6 cause of high current prices.
Day 33
Lower leaves started getting yellow.
Don't know the issue, I have indications that she has nitrogen deficiency, but a lot of guys tell me that 4ml of fish mix is a lot.
Don't really know the problem.
Day 34
Still the lower fan leaves turn yellow...
! Kinda bent the top to have even canopy.
! Lights give about 42 DLI in a good area.
Temperature 24°C morning / 22°C night.
Humidity 40%.
Day 35
Looking better today tbh.
Temperature 25°C morning / 23°C night.
Humidity 42%.
Going into 30th day being a bush.
Should I cut some leaves from the top of the bottom, or should I stick to leaf tucking? She's an auto and I'm kinda scared to cut her leaves.
Hi there
Be selective.. you want to take off leaves that are blocking light to lower bud sites dont go mad as you don’t want to shock her,
Just a little thin out .. tuck back leaves if possible rather then remove them do you want to create light and good airflow through the plant 👍
Best of luck 🌱
Guys/girls please help!
Lower leaves have started getting yellow. I really don't know the issue.
Is it of nitrogen deficiency? A lot of you have told me that 4ml of fish juice is a lot, so is there a possibility of nutrient burn? How can save her?
It could be leftover from watering issues and probably nutrient lockout from the high amounts of feed you've given. I'd not give nutrients for a week, focus on watering correctly and then re-assess. If the yellowing hasn't advanced, you've fixed the issue. The already damaged leaves won't really fix themselves, they'll eventually die off, but I wouldn't take them off yet. If it continues to get worse, try to just continue feeding. When you continue to nutes go with 1ml/l fishmix (or grow), 2ml/l biobloom. If there's lockout causing deficiency no feeding helps because they can't intake any of it before the lockout is fixed. If possible, check the pH going in and out. High pH means too much nutes.
Day 36
All cool. Some old leaves at the bottom drop on their own.
Kinda flushed her cause runoff water was at 7.2pH. Going to water her with regular water for a bit. I think I caused nutrient burn last week, so gonna go smooth.
Temperatures 23°C morning 22°C night.
Humidity 40%.
Day 37
Well, me and my bro decided it was time to flush cause he checked the pH of the soil and was too high. After flushing, we kinda watered the solution with the new nutrients.
She seems happier now, I think the yellow leaves start turning to normal again.
Temps 25 / 23
Hum 40
Day 38
All seem pretty nice for some reason. The yellow leaves start getting their color back.
Temps 25 / 23
Hum 40
Day 39
Temps 26 / 23

Same tings
Day 41
Watered her and ready to go
Temps 25.5 / 23
Hum 45
Day 42
Watered with nuts, adding a bit of fish mix.
Buddy still struggles to keep his leaves 😢.
I don't know what to expect anymore.
Temps and hum same.
Hey guys and girls.
My buddy is at her 40th day of life and has gotten into flowering for good (check my diary).
Will she grow taller and thicker or not?
I think I caused nutrient lockout last week and she started flowering earlier than expected. Will that affect my yields?
No, she will not grow much taller, but the buds will fill out heaps more.
Nutrient "lock out", real or not, does not affect flower timing in autos, this is all controlled by genetics.
If you are after a more satisfying yield in future, grow photoperiod (fem) plants and that way you can control the flowering cycle and not end up with one foot plants flowering as can happen with (stupid) autos. (yes, I detest autos!)
You also use a ton less electricity growing photoperiod plants.........autos 18 hours of light a day for the entire cycle...........photoperiod plants, 18 hours a day for a few veg weeks, then 12 hours a day for flowering......do the math, it may surprise you..........over a fairly typical 12 week run (as an example), you can save roughly 330 hours of "lights on time"!.......
12 weeks at 18 hours for autos = 1512 hours of lights on time
Photos = 4 weeks at 18 and 8 weeks at 12 for a total of 1176 hours of lights on time........a difference of 336 hours of lights on time!
I know which electricity bill I would prefer!
Day 43
All going good.
Temperatures 25°C morning / 22°C night.
Humidity 40%.
Day 44
Showing some deficiencies, I think the soil pH might be off again.
Temperatures 24°C morning / 21°C night.
Humidity 45%.
Day 45
Finally medium was dry enough to feed her nutrients. Liked them.
Temperatures 23°C morning / 21°C night.
Humidity 40%.
Day 54
She seems to be close to harvesting. Still giving her the nuts, I think the next week it's time to flush.
Temperatures 23°C day/ 22° night.
Day 55
Same stuff
Day 66
Buddy is kinda still for the past week. She develops her buds.
Sorry for not posting week 8, just forgot to take some photos. I was very frustrated that she did not grow as tall and she won't have much wields as I thought, and I did not care for the diary.
Anyways, she is still going strong, has developed amazing colors and is full or trichomes. Buds are getting dense, but they have not covered the whole branch, but hey, what do you expect while having no leaves.
So, I'm waiting for the pistils to turn orange on all the buds, while I'm already flushing from the past week.
I think I maybe have one week left.
Best of hopes buddies!
Peace.
I think that some overwatering, or overnutrient problems stunted the growth leading many of her leaves to drop.
Small harvest, but bud quality seems outstanding.
