Humidity at around 60% temp around 72. Waiting for another plant to bloom, carmelicious autoflower. Than I am switching to 18/6 light schedule. Transplanting to fox farm ocean forest in a couple of days. 3.5 gallon pot.
14 days since sprouting. Transplanted to a 3.5 gallon pot with a 70% mix of ocean forest and 30% of coco coir with some used coffee grounds mixed in. Adding about 1500 ppm of grow big once or twice a week. Was finally able to collect a bunch of rain water. Havnt done a runoff test yet, but this week I will. Watering at 6.2 ph every 2 or 3 days depending on soil dryness.
Coming along nicely. Going to start LST in a couple days. Have a whole new ac infinity setup coming with T4 cloudline fan and T3 humidifier and 48x24x72 tent. Dropped light down to 19 inches away from plant. Super excited for my new equipment.
The Do si Do is blowing up like crazy. Biggest fan leaves I have ever seen so far on any plant i have grown. Probably be defoliated in a week or so. Just started LST Training couple days ago. Smell is starting to come on. Switched my light to flowering. Watering about every 3 days. Going to start with the tiger bloom next Watering.
42 days in and not seeing great signs of flowering. Another strain I have is 35 days in and pistils everywhere. Should I be concerned? Same nutes, water, soil, and tent.
Hello Mnbuds, when I look at your diary I can see that she started to grow (stretch) a lot faster this week compare to the weeks before. I do expect that she starts to flower (show pistils like your carmelicious) within a week from now.
If not then there is just 1 option left and that is to give her 12 hours darkness per day to trigger the flowering phase (I would give her max 2 more weeks from now before doing this). But be patient and I do really believe that she will start to flower very soon!
Day 49 getting a little worried. Autoflower is not flowering. Everything else looks great. PH and ppm are spot on. Plant is stretching. Going to give it another week before I change light schedule.
63 days in, no pistils. I hope this thing flowers because it is big. My other Auto is doing great in same tent. Might have to go to 12/12 with this one. Plant looks great otherwise.
70 days in, no pistils. Getting big. I don't want to switch to 12/12 until my other auto in same tent is done, roughly in 2 more weeks. This is supposed to be an autoflower from a good seed bank. What do I do, put in different tent and go 12/12?
Based on the information you've shared, I would recommend transitioning your plant to a photoperiod of 12/12 hours of light and darkness. Although it is an autoflowering plant, if it hasn't shown signs of flowering yet, it's better to ensure that it enters the flowering stage soon. Otherwise, you might lose control of its size, and it may outgrow your cultivation space. By adjusting the light cycle, you can encourage the plant to initiate the flowering process.
Changing the light cycle to 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness mimics the natural conditions that induce flowering in cannabis plants. This shift in the photoperiod will help trigger the necessary hormonal changes for your plant to enter the flowering stage.
Keep in mind that different autoflowering strains have varying characteristics, and some may have longer vegetative phases before initiating flowering. However, if your plant has been in the vegetative stage for an extended period without any signs of flowering, it's best to transition to the 12/12 light cycle to avoid further delays.
I wish you the best of luck with this adjustment and hope your plant begins flowering soon. Remember to monitor its growth and adjust other environmental factors as needed to ensure optimal conditions for your plant's development.
If you have any further questions or need assistance, feel free to ask. Happy growing!
70 days in...switched to 12/12 to get flowering going on this autoflower. My question is can I switch back to 18/6 once I get pistils going? Last question lol
Surely that's not an auto. Would be at least pre flowering by now. Switch to 12/12 and keep it on that. Don't forget to increase your light intensity with 12/12 as you lights are off longer.
77 days in. Switched to photo period schedule. 13/11. Was supposed to be an autoflower. Going with advanced nutrients for this run. Seeing signs of pistils coming so that is good. Stretching and becoming a beast. Stem is like a tree trunk.
Finally this thing is flowering! Supposed to be an autoflower but had to switch to 12/12 to flower.
Pistils are Finally coming in. This is going to be a good one, stem is a tree trunk! Trying advanced nutrients with this one. Just mix it with tap water and perfect ph.
Coming along nicely. Getting stinky. Still not sure if I have a huge auto or a small photo. It seems to have stopped stretching at 32 inches.
I am keeping it on 12/12 light schedule since that is what made it flower.
Just maintenance at this point. Cutting small popcorn buds hopefully to get bigger colas. Smell is picking up. Watering or feeding 1/2 gallon every other day.
This plant is 🔥. Minty, skunky, piney smells. Super sticky. Started flushing end of this week. Most of the trichomes are cloudy. Buds are fattening nicely. Maybe another week or so before I chop down.
Just waiting for a few amber trichomes to show up on the buds and this thing is coming down. Plant is looking beautiful. Biggest one I have grown so far.
Chopped down. Hung to dry. I dry at 60% RH and about 68 degrees. Usually takes 6 to 8 days. I cut most of the fan leaves off and will finish with a dry trim. This plant was so sticky it's going to be 🔥 lots of purple sugar leaves should add some nice colors to the buds.
