I start this grow with 8 Amnesia XXL, it is my first try with autoflo seeds, They grow in plagron light mix in a 20L pots under HID 400W.
I have a climat controller onwn made, because on my previous diary i had problem with humidity.
The week is good, all are in flowering now, only Amnesia 4 is not.
I use dehumidifier because i reach 70%, then it go to 55%.
I set my HPS ballast to 600W and put the plants to 60 cm.
This week get a little problem, the leaves on two plants turn yellow/clear, I increase the fertilizer to 7.5 ml/L of Terra Vega.
I will introduce Flo fertilizer next week and do some defoliation .
The Amnesia 4 is in flowering now.
This week i got a big problem, my light ballast had a short circuit and the plants had no light, no air circulation for minimum 24h. I change to my old light 400W HPS.
The humidity is out of control now because of the short circuit and the weather outside.
The plants start to stop growing so I introduce Terra Flores in combination with Terra Vega.
The plants are between 66 cm and 105 cm. I remove also the nodes that are not to the direct light.
The grow is stable since the light stress from last week,, trichomes appear on one plant.
I use again both fertilizer this week because the plants still grow.
I remove also the nodes on the bottom 1/3. This spare 400W light don't do so well.
I apologize for the pictures quality, my old ballast is not very stable but I can't change now,, that will give more stress to the plants
This week, not so much to mention,
The grow in height is totally finish and then i reduce the Terra Vega fertilizer and i will stop it completely next week.
One plant still have nutrient issue, but stable.
The plants have not so much light in bottom parts because of 400W replacement light, i should cut some branches.
This week i tried to remove the Veg fertilizer but all plants are yellowing. The buds begin to grow large.
I did some defoliation.
The room begin to smell a lot.
This week all the 1/3 bottom leaves falls and 4/6 plants are yellow.
I use fertilizer combination like on a previous weeks.
The room temp increase as summer come outside.
No plant are ready to harvest.
The flowering is good, 4/6 plants have dense buds with good smell and trichomes, they need i think 2 weeks more.
For the others two (the biggest plants on pictures 1 and 2) the buds are very airy and no brown pistils, they need at least three weeks more.
4 plants are near to be ready , then i use water to clear fertilizer, the smell is strong now, the others two big one don't have a brown pistil and are still not dense.
This week I harvest 4 plants on day 104, remain only two plants that are not dense and not 50% brown.
I will do a single harvest page to count the yield .
The harvest is finally here. For the first 4 plants the weed is looking good with a lot of trichomes. For the last two the weed is not dense and worth after dry. These two looks like pure sativa .
For the yield is respectable for my first autoflo try and no use of pruning technics. The weight is 43 +66+53+40+50+35 + 20 small bud= 307g dry
