Hey now, I hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend. This little deformed lady is still going fairly strong, she is not growing quite as fast as the other two autos in the tent, but I think she could still put out some nice flowers. I am still feeding her silica, cal mag, and just veg nutrients. I did top her yesterday on day 34 as she is still not showing many pre flowers, so I just topped her so she doesn't get too tall. I have not done much LST on her yet but I may do some this week.
I did change the Medic grow spectrum to the F1 spectrum this week which is the flower spectrum. I am also running the UV/IR bar for about 75 minutes every day before lights off, and I now have the light cranked up to 100%. I will start to transition to flower nutrients probably next week, depending on how tall she gets and how soon she transitions to flower production.
Not much to do this week except keep the reservoir clean, full, and in the proper PH range. If any colas get crazy higher than the others I will correct, but other than that she can do her thing from here on out.
Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪

How Interesting! So we both use part of the GH flora line. I’m gonna have to look up what ya mention above and put that into my spread sheet. Lovely details. Thanks for posting! 🙂💚
@Tweezer, omg yea strain 6 has been insane. Just about to update the final weeks and harvest for that plant now. I was stuck in trim jail forever so haven’t been on too much! Love the girls above. And the tomato plants!!!
So Interesting about the leaves. I hadn’t realized that most of strain 6 was 3 leaf fans, or 5 at the most. Lol. I love all the little genetic differences we can find along the way of growing. Hope you having a great one! 😃
Dope notes! For seedlings, I use my "Cup Inside of a Cup" method:
Two "solo" cups, with the 1st solo cup's bottom removed and then the remaining cone is sliced in half. From there I fill the 2nd cup with about an inch of aquarium gravel and insert the two halves from the 1st cup (to make a cup inside of a cup).
When transplanting, I remove the outside cup and then place the plant into the hole. Then I gently slide out each half of the inside cup. One thing to note is that the new Solo cups have a weird shape that is not good for cup in cup. I had to switch to an off brand like Hefty.
Another cool thing is that I can check the progress of the seedling by briefly separating the two cups to check for root growth in the aquarium gravel.
@Tweezer, I just added some photos to my Germination week diary. I planted clones in their final flowering containers this around, so I do not have any live examples to show unfortunately.

@NegotiatedBubble, Hey now, I have heard of that technique but never tried it, do you have any pictures of the two solo cup technique? I want to try it but not really sure how to set it up...If there is any way to shave off even 24 hours in the seedling stage of an auto grow auto grow I am all about it....
