At the very start of the week I noticed the bottom starting to yellow out bad, this made me sure that there was some form of deficiency. I began to research some of the common causes and came upon a MASSIVE mistake on my part...
I purchased the wrong nutes for this grow, feeding "Micro" while I should have been using "Coco Micro". This means that since germination, she has had low nitrogen levels as well as a Magnesium and Phosphate deficiency. I got the correct nutes on day 26 and gave her a healthy helping. While I could see the change in a few hours with leaves darkening and growing a bit more, I am convinced that she will not manage to recover fully.
I will continue the grow however in an attempt to learn about the viability of rescuing an autoflower in future. I hope that others can learn from my mistakes so that your next grow is absolutely awesome๐ฑ๐ฅ๐ฌ
@Staggerlee, thanks so much for the comment, I actually have 2 other plants at the moment that I am LST'ing, they are already looking way better than this girl and went through some of the same stunts. I thought as this is my first grow, I would leave this girl all natural to see the difference between training and not, although I would have loved if she grew a bit more normally!๐
