An earlier update this week than usual. 3 ladies lost their heads yesterday after only 55 days from seed. All 3 main colas loaded with amber trichomes and the lower buds screaming for more light I felt I had to do it. Together on the scales the 3 colas weighed 92g trimmed wet. All LST ties were undone and the lower branches starting sending the buds towards the light, I made sure they were all very thirsty before the chop, The reaction to being chopped, untied and watered with a dose of nutes was amazing to watch. Today all 3 plants are looking as if nothing happened. In fact they are imo looking better than ever. The lower buds are getting so much more light now and will hopefully fatten up over the next week or so. Feeling very optimistic and looking on cue for a 4/20 full harvest of the 3 if they can, and I can wait that long :) *Uploaded pics of how the ladies are doing 36 hours after the chop. *4/20 update Happy 4/20 to everyone :) It's been a very busy 10 days and im still staggered harvesting. Lemonade - 100% harvested Cookie - 50% - 2 chops Banana - 25% - 1 chop Glue - Glue has has now taken center stage and is benefiting from all 5 lights now. After a lot of problems with her she now seems to be picking up and could drop the most weight out of the 4 strains. Plants are handling this all very well, lower buds are getting fatter and exploding in trichomes and no signs of stress at all. S All strains are already smooth, tasty and very moreish :) Have weed in jars, weed drying and weed still on the stem plus 5 new ladies ready to take over the space. Best ever 4/20 for me for sure. I'll do a harvest update for each strain as they finish.

My first grow and can't help wondering about how much dry bud I can expect judging by the photos of the 4 Autos I have in their 7th week now. Thx for any input ๐Ÿ™

maybe 30g on the small ones and 60-70 on the bigger ones? 150-200g dried/cured? really depends on how they fill out. some buds are denser than others and can surprise you. when it ripens, imagine the buds shrunk to about half the size of what they are on the plant and can guess more accurately. Some of those colas might end up much fatter than we can tell from theses pictures. Photoperiod plants can have more consistent outcomes and if you want can run them on same timeline, more or les. Though you may need more powerful lights for a 12 hour cycle vs autoflowers (18h -> 12h requires 150% of intensity over 12 to provide what was once given over 18, same cost in watts, though)

Have you got any hermie plants in your area as some of them look like they have pods if they have the other plants will be seeded buds and they will not be as potent as they will concentrate on seed production

Good job on the grow and making it to harvest on your first run!

@MrGrowthSpurt, I have a magnifying glass and to get an even closer look I use a camera and zoom in on what is being shown in the magnifying glass then view the image on a big screen.

@thaigrow420, awesome!!! That would be sweet to Harvest on 4/20. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ How are you determining whether or not they are ready? I'm assuming you have a loupe or microscope to zoom in on the trichromes right?
Thaigrow420

@MrGrowthSpurt, Thank you, not quite there yet though. If the plants and myself can wait 8 days until 4/20 then that will probably the harvest date if they are ready by then. I'll update with a few pics of how they are looking now a bit later on after dark time.

I can't give you any advice on feeding as you are using different nutrients than i do , but you could definitely top the banana purple punch next time , it responded perfectly in my case at least. By the way your plants look healthier than mine ๐Ÿ‘Œ

@thaigrow420, You WILL get some rewards from your ladies . Don't worry about that. The first grow is always a hard run. Especially with autoflowers. Because it's all about timing. Light, Water, humidity, nutrients. But i bet you will learn fast. So just keep it up . ๐Ÿค›

@Dakaka, Considering their rough start I am so far well pleased with the plants. The way things are looking, it looks like I should get something to taste from the ladies :)

Fantastic grow. Very well done for a first-time ๐Ÿ˜ƒ especially indoor since that is more difficult. Reading throughout the journal i would have feared for budrot with the high humidity levels u had to deal with but very good it didn't happen. I bet u had a lot of airflow going on in the room? I hope for a very good and tasty harvest and I'm gonna follow along with your next grow. Happy growing ๐Ÿ™

@Clutch, Thank you. Things are turning out great even after a rough start. 100% of Gorilla Glue and 50% of Banana are still on the stem growing, the rest is drying/curing. The staggered harvesting seems to be working well, I didn't expect it to take so long though :) Will update with harvest details when its all in jars.

Well done, I really enjoy the holistic approach to pest control and simply achieving a harvest, I have no doubt that your next run will be even better than this one. What made you interested in growing your own crop, and what affected your choice of strain?
Thaigrow420

@Addonexus, Thank you :) Very close to the finish line now, I will be checking for amber trichomes later after they wake up. Maybe harvest on 4/20 :) The main reason I started this project was the expense of quality weed here in Thailand with 1g costing more than the daily average wage. With growing becoming legal here it was a no brainer, I just should have started earlier :) Strain choice was mainly for high THC content, other than that it was pretty random. The drying process is going better than expected, I'm drying next to the grow space in a wardrobe. 22-24c and 50-60% RH. Im keeping the drying space 5c cooler than outside by placing a frozen solid 6 liter dunk of water in a big bucket with a lid. I'm running a PC fan that was not doing much in the tent this gives a nice gentle ventilation. Outside temps are 27-34 celcius so the AC is already busting the bank, the ice block will save me going bankrupt :) Last night the plants together had lost 67% of weight and were dry enough to smoke, even without curing all 3 strains were a smooth, very sticky experience equaling any top shelf available here. Most probably they go in jars later today.

I've found better success putting my dry nutrients into water and bubbling it for 36 hours before feeding. It helps the plant balance into the food easier and I would also raise those lights further away when growing.

Lovely looking lady, very lush and full bodied. Plant is also nice. ๐Ÿคฃ Has very lovely color. Some nice fade. Good luck with the rest of your grows.. cracking 1st attempt. To deal with such a large amount of pests in an indoor grow.. crazy. Ants and everything. I hate creepies. I find Yellow Sticky traps are great. Also, ethanol 1:2 mix with water will help kill any larva.. also Hydro proxoide H202 3-6% 1-3 r 1-5 ratio with water will also help. They're so many many better products than neem oil. You'll find, much better. But, the yellow traps or sticky paper, wipe underneath your leafs, as that's were mites lay their eggs. H202/ethanol for the ants, until you get something for them, i know you got to your harvests. So, next time. I'm sure you've found your own ways.. Congrats, especially with you dealth with. Hope you get a bountiful harvest
