Surprisingly still kicking. The space bin is almost done, just need to line the walls with Mylar, but I got the fans and light all in place and moved the plant into a bigger pot.
Seems to be growing at a normal rate as it should be. Happy to see its feeling ok. Once it reaches 7 nodes I think I’ll try topping to the 5th node. As for the smell you can definitely tell when you walk into the room as there is no filter, but it’s not too bad and you get used to it very quick.
Plant looks good, is growing and seems happy. Some bottom leaves seemed a bit effected by a fungus, so I trimmed 4 small ones. I also just topped hoping it spreads out a little more.
Noticed these yellow dots two days ago. It is now 1 day until it has been 4 weeks of veg. Two days ago I have it it’s first does of nutrients, Miracle-Gro 20-20-20 plant food. Just gave it another shot today. Is there anything else I should do to keep the plant healthy? Thanks
I agree with PiusWaxis here and Ezzjaybruh... it looks pretty overfed yet you have no information on the nutes you're giving her, if any... but what the little dots are showing is a calcium deficiency - which MAY be caused by a nitrogen toxicity (plants do look very dark green) or a pH that's not at a good level (again, no information on that in your diary) - the pH needs to be maintained between 6.0 and 6.5 for a healthy grow in soil. If you can't fix the situation that caused the deficiency, it won't help even if you throw a whole bottle of calmag at her... she won't be able to get at it.
But all of this may not be anything to even try to do something about because you've topped a plant that hates anything more stressful than LST. While some are able to successfully top an autoflower, they can do it because they know how long the veg period is for the strain they're growing... but if you don't know that and don't know WHEN it's going to go into flower, you can't plan on providing it with sufficient time to recover and it's all over before it even starts. MOST autoflowers will go into pre-flower between week 3 and week 4 ... I hope yours isn't one of them...
Good luck...
and p.s... if you think you've got fungus issues, you would need to do a little more than just trim off the leaves... fungus spores go everywhere, they don't just stay on a leaf that can be tossed in the bin..
For a first time grow, I’m definitely learning a lot about plant sensitivity as well as lots of techniques when I will need to employ later. As for this plant, I will be trying to keep it alive so I can learn from it as much as I can, and hope it does ok. Now my big challenge will be trying to fix its calcium problem. Also I got this tent and filter for free which is nice, and will help for future grows.
Another week of grow, it’s definitely gotten a lot bigger. I have a ph measurement device on the way and will be repotting it tonight in hops for it to grow nice. Still some nutrient and ph issue seen on the leafs but it seems to be going away.
Still being pretty small on the updates because I’m away from home but definitely still checking on the plant as much as possible. Seems to be doing a lot better, very little new brown spots, flowers starting to form, and getting real big… pretty nice to see
Did a bit of defoliation this week to give some air flow and allow more light to the flower sites. Leaves look good with no noticeable brown spots, and a nice green. Interestingly is very spread out though, maybe due to the lack of stress training, but it still is good.
Another good week of grow. It’s getting pretty tall and ,it’s of flower sites around, as for ph and nutrients I’ll have to run some tests in the next week to see how it’s doing
Quite happy with the plant so far, seems to be starting to flower good. Did some ph adjustment and seems to be slightly acidic, however it was decently basic before so I’ll just keep and eye on it to come up. As for the flowers they all look pretty good sizes right now with a few nice big ones. Also had to have a cat - leaf play session.
