popped seeds, just waiting on them to pop now. This grow is going to be with Gaia Green dry amendments. After 3 days the seeds finally popped and broke ground, hoping for some quickness from this point out. If they are anything like the auto's I grew 2 years ago I figure by day 14 they will explode.

The plants have a single real leaf and are working on more currently. I am hoping in the next week or 2 that their growth explodes. the other plants in the one pic are unrelated to this grow, they just happen to be in the same tent for the sake of eventually having biweekly harvests hopefully.

The chocolate skunk auto's are progressing well, I am wondering if a few hours of lights off would be beneficial however.

Started with a super low dose of massive bloom now that my flowering has started on these, it was recommended by the hydro guy and I wanted to use something as just the organics has not been thickening up the way all of my bottle grows did and I think it is due to a lack of PK. I also added in some myco spores on vermiculite that I got from the hydro store as well, figured it would be beneficial for the roots during flower and likely should have had it the entire grow. I have tied down my one plant in more places as a test to see if it will produce better than the other 2 which were only tied in one spot.

My plants got slightly yellow tips which looked like either iron or mag deficiency so I dropped the pH of my water slightly and added in a little cal mag and bloom booster. The plants are coming a long well showing lots of branching and tops, should make for a solid amount of bud when these plants are finished in a few weeks. It still amazes me that these plants are barely over a month old. The odd shot may show the edge of other plants but I am not journaling them as they are serving a specific purpose that I do not feel like journaling.

I always feel even with autos that they always benifited from a few hours of dark.

@Drtomb, It is something I am seriously considering, especially once first pistils pop to give them that rest period during stretch.

I had to stop updating this journal, was experiencing too many problems trying to update from my phone and it was too frustrating for me to bother with. I will try a harvest update but am unsure if it will work either.
