March 7, 2023 Skywalker OG Day 45 Height: 34.5" DLI: 45 (below top) Wedding Glue Day 38 Height: 9.5" DLI: 25 Going into week 6, I expect to see massive bud production from Skywalker OG. She looks great and has a ton of bud sites and is stacking beautifully. She has also started her Bloom nutrients. I use Fox Farm Tiger Bloom. Wedding Glue should be stretching this week as well. She will certainly fill out even more and I'll definitely have to defoliate one more time. Everything looks great on her. Beautiful lush green and great form. Definitely will be super bushy. Then there is that clone I made from Skywalker OG. It rooted and seems super healthy. I planted her in a 1/4 gallon nursery bag with the 50/50 Fox Farm mix. So she is planted and living in the tent now. I'm going to die if I get a nice cola out of this. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.6° RH: 55.3% VPD: 1.19 kPa March 8, 2023 Not much going on today. Skywalker OG has some great internodal spacing. Looking great! Wedding Glue got a few more leaf snips. Opened the canopy right up again. Clone... Nope! She gone! I was mistaken. No rooting. Oh well. Grow System Environment: Temp: 71.9° RH: 55.1% VPD: 1.17 kPa March 9, 2023 Lots of filling in last night from Skywalker OG. I had to take a few leaves off that were directly covering bud sites. Nothing crazy though. Her buds are really well formed and growing rapidly. Wedding Glue hasn't stretched yet, but she is definitely looking about ready to. She is getting wider and I can only hope that she will shoot up during her stretch. She will be massive. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.7° RH: 54.6% VPD: 1.22 kPa March 10, 2023 Skywalker OG is stacking! The smell is still weak, but it smells great! Her buds are filling in quite nicely. I snipped 4 leaves that were becoming a problem for lower bud sites. Wedding Glue is looking great! Still slow growing, but robust. Branches are becoming nice and strong. She will definitely be able to hold a good amount of bud on them. She still has a bunch of huge fan leaves, but they seem to be helping her with developing a natural level canopy. She is starting to get a distinct smell from her branches and stems. Nothing super strong but a nice smell either way. Grow System Environment: kinda messy today. Temp: 71.8° RH: 55.9% VPD: 1.14 kPa March 11, 2023 Unfortunately I have run out of FishShit so I dropped it down to 1 ml per gallon for the rest of the week. Hopefully I can get more ASAP. Wedding Glue had a bump in her nutrient uptake from 1 ml to 2 ml for the week. Speaking of uptake, they have both gotten really thirsty in the past day. Both reservoirs were bone dry this morning. I have to keep a closer eye on the water levels. Finally, Wedding Glue is growing upward. Or at least starting to. Her branches are all reaching up now and most have broken through the canopy. I'll do another light defoliation when she really gets into the stretch. Just the biggest fan leaves. Maybe 10 total? Skywalker OG looks great! Trichomes are starting to develop all over the smaller fan leaves. Pistils are massive and stacking is getting impressive already. Most branches have some pretty good internodal spacing, especially through the top 8 inches or so, maybe 10? Either way, I hope to see some big and long colas for this lady. She also hasn't stopped growing either. Grow System Environment: Temp: 70.9° RH: 56.2% VPD: 1.10 kPa March 12, 2023 Skywalker OG looks great! She's building those buds so nicely and she is starting to get a beautiful pungent scent. So far just gassy. Wedding Glue is getting bigger and bigger. I believe she just started pre-flower today. Hopefully the stretch will be here soon. Grow System Environment: Snowing Outside Temp: 71.4° RH: 54.4% VPD: 1.17 kPa March 13, 2023 Final day of week 6. Wedding Glue will get a defoliation at some point in the following week. She still hasn't started stretching, but she looks like she is getting ready to. Skywalker OG looks great as ever. She is definitely too close to the light at the top, but the rest of the canopy is comfortable at a DLI of 45. The top is around 68. Much too high. She looks great! Pistils are getting bigger and more abundant. Even on the lower bud sites, the pistils are huge and numerous. Great end to the week. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.4° RH: 54.8% VPD: 1.20

Best to get a light meter. Photone or tentbuddy. Not sure what works on what phone but look into a meter for sure . Tentbuddy gives u outlines for veg and flower along with a VPD Calculator. It's hard to just say "lift it 24in above" the light meter will get u in the best range.

Why is my Wedding Glue Auto so short? She's healthy as can be. The issue here is that she is in day 30 with zero signs of upward growth and only 5.5" tall. Can I fix this somehow? Huge leaves though. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Look at the diary to see.

She is growing slowly.. But, I can see she's only around pushing up her 5 or so set of nodes. She will get bigger. She's just slow going atm.. had the same thing with my lemon pie and took her ages to flip. She'll put on most of her height during pre flower. Idk her traits but she looks mainly indica with her big fat leafs. Indicas grow much lower and have more girt. Sativas grow higher that have less girt. But, sometimes plants especially autos are unpredictable. Wouldnt worry about it to much. Good growing

After much research, I couldn't find anything on how to properly handle a really short plant. Does anyone have a thought about this? Or how to induce extra stretch? This is for documentation and research for this particular grow situation. Please see week 5 entries. Thanks all!

No need for defol right now. You’re at a critical point you don’t want to hinder anything. You have a great even canopy. Let her be.

I'd say leave her be my guy. You need those leaves for photosynthesis. To make those nice beautiful flowers! Besides she doesn't really have an abundance of leaves from what I can see. I hope this helps.

I've always wondered this and never asked. Should all cannabis plants go through senescence? I only ask because I've only ever had 1 plant that went through it. Am I harvesting too early? Or does it even matter? These are autoflower grows.

If you're nailing the nutrition, don't do a pre-harvest flush, and the genetics don't support it, then there's a good chance you won't see senescence and there's nothing wrong with that. As long as you're happy with the trichomes on your grow, then no one can you tell it's the wrong time to harvest. There's a lot of debate about "flushing" and what it can or can't do for your plant (including a lot of recent research on this). Many top professional farms don't flush at all and as a result they see little to no senescence in their crop. That said, I always flush - probably due to habit and/or bro-science - and I do always see a "fade" as a result. I've no way or telling you if this actually improved the smoke or quality though. Latest research suggests that it doesn't really help, but that probably won't stop me doing it every harvest! 😂

I normally don't ask more than one question a week, but I believe I'm at a critical point with my wedding glue. She hasn't grown at all in the last 2 days at 14.5". I haven't defoliated yet because of stretch, but I think she's done. Should I defoliate or wait a few more days?

Another question?! Anyway, what the hell is this browning? I think it's light burn. But why is it lower too? PH? Magnesium? Nitrogen toxicity? Par: 1300 PPFD Fox Farm tiger bloom 7 ml/gal. Fish Shit 3 ml/gal. See diary for environmental conditions. Thanks for the help. Again.

That is helpful @Prilyfe13. I think we can definitely narrow it down to two things - a lack of Calcium (which matches your description of brown dots progressively getting worse and becoming more blocky), and possible light burn. If the issue is only affecting the very top of the plant nearest the light, then I believe you may have hit the nail on the head with light burn. Looking at your photo dated 19th March, the issue wasn't present in it's current form then, but I can see the sides of the leaves starting to curl up. This is THE classic light burn symptom. It begins on the sides of the leaves (rather than the tips, like nutrient burn) and then progresses inwards. But, you've obviously described a classic calcium deficiency as well, as I said... so perhaps it's six of one and half-dozen of the other! When it comes to living soil, I am certainly no expert, but my understanding is that you don't generally need to add too much in the way of nutrients as this is mostly in the soil already. Hopefully someone with more experience than me in this field will be able to help you... That said, if you don't get any more expert advice, I would probably err on the side of caution and raise/dim the lights (as you have done) and then maybe incorporate some Cal-Mag into the next few feeds, just to be sure it's getting enough. I don't think I've ever seen calcium or magnesium toxicity myself, so if you're using the small recommended doses, I can't see that it would cause any harm even if it doesn't need it. RE: Fish shit - I don't think this is the cause. So long as you're only using the recommended dosages, it should be fine. RE: an equipment list - don't even get us started or it will never end lol. All you technically need is air, water, soil and the sun... that doesn't explain why my spare room looks like the inside of Area 51's weapons testing facility. 😂 PH and TDS/EC meters are great, but I managed to grow successfully for years without them - particularly growing in soil which is much more forgiving. Its the same with basically every growing accessory I own. The main thing, to me, is managing the growing environment: keeping humidity high in veg and low in flower, keeping temps in the ideal range in the day and at night, etc. Those are the hardest things to do as you might be fighting against building itself, weather and geography etc, which are not battles that can be easily won. In future, if you want to keep your plants smaller and spread out the canopy more to avoid light burn and increase the PPFD or what would otherwise be lower branches, I would recommend that you start practicing LST or SCROG'ing, but that's more a technique than an accessory - other than the plant ties you'll need to make LST'ing easy. 😁 Good luck!

Week 10 question for Wedding Glue. I know there is a lot of controversy over trimming autoflowers. Let's say it's semi safe. She's super bushy again. Should I do another defoliation? OR wait another few days? I'm worried about timing. I have very little left. Thanks all!

Hi, I follow @LegacyMarketFarm here and on you tube. He indicated there should be final defoliation 3rd week after flowers start. This forces energy to all remaining bud sites. I did this with my plants to keep down any mold issues since I couldn't control humidity. .I will say, however, there are many different thoughts on the 3rd defoliation. Happy growing and have fun 👍

So I have a bottom feed wick system. Works great, but now my plant is dry on the bottom and seems to have slowed down to a trickle of water uptake. What does this mean? The soil is also drying out pretty quickly as well. See Diary for further details. What do I do? Thanks!

If this was my grow, I would be watering from the top since she's not taking it up from the wicking and is drying out.... the last thing you want is for your entire plant to turn crispy. Water until there's some runoff and then wait to see if the runoff is soaked back up into the pot - if it is, give more water until it stops soaking it back up and then throw away the excess... Good luck!

What do I do with this overly leafy plant? I'm pretty sure the foliage caused very airy buds and tops. What should I do here? Major defoliation before 48 hours of dark? Leave it, cut the branches off when harvested and run a dry trim or with this should I run wet trim? Thanks!

This plant is looking beautiful! I would not recommend to defoliate this late in the growing phase. Just make sure that there will be enough moving air around this plant to prevent fungals. The only advice that I can give to you for this plant is to cut down the nutrients a bit. You are giving too much. 75% from what you are giving now is more then enough till harvest.
