Something really strange happened: my autoflowering breed has started blooming at her fourth week. Looking on the internet I found out that it might be because of extreme conditions such as too high temperatures (although it was only 27 degrees) and dehydration, but still, I had been giving her enough water. I've also read that you shouldn't start training when the blooming's already started, but since the plat is still so small I wanted to try anyway. Since it is low stress training I think it shouldn't demage her. I'll wait and see what happens
Couldn't take care of them personally thi s week as I wasn't home, so my roommate did it. I'm very happy with the results, especially considering that the growing conditions aren't the best (it's been raining constantly this past week). I thought that she would've stop growing since she started the blooming phase, but she's actually growing faster that she was before. I'm not really sure how to properly do LST, still I did my best
She stopped growing up, but she's still producing new leaves and her flowers keep getting bigger. I think I'm probably gonna get about 10 grams.
I'm really worried though, because her lowest leaves are turning yellow and shows burn signs. I thought it was because of the hot weather, but her leaves should have been all bent down (this is what I read on the internet). Since the plant is overall healthy, I guess it might be just normal. Anyway, I found out that it also might be caused by a potassium deficiency, so I'll try and give her some. All been said, I'm still really happy with the results and I love her
This past week has been a struggle. I keep my plants on the balcony during the day and in the grow box during night and I inspect every single of their leaves everytime I move them in or out. A few days ago I noticed some kind of microscopic egg on one of her flowers and then some sort of parasites under her leaves.
Since then: panic. I searched for the name of the parasite (acarus) and bought some neem oil which I applied manually on every leaf (to prevent it from going on the flowers) and onto the ground.
Since then the parasites are almost gone. But now she has these "sad" leaves, with their points bent down and the margins as well.. I've read different explanations, but I think in my it might be the high temperature and the overwatering, together with the dammed fungus flies. I'll keep going with the neem oil and diminish the water.
Apart from all this, her flowers are still growing and producing so much resin🤤
These last two weeks I had trobles taking care of her because I was never home and it kept raining, but she stayed strong and her flowers are nearly ready, I'm guessing another week. I love how she's so small but with these enormous frlowers (in proportion to the plant). I still struggled with the mite infection, so I need to continue with neem oil, knowing it will effect the final taste. Nothing else to do though, I prefer a bad taste than smoking insects
