These auto’s are growing beyond a normal rate, with a mixture of well balanced nutrients, a very specific feeding schedule and light positioning ( with right amount of light produced ) they are rocketing from their once struggling, weak stemmed stage. Averaging roughly 8 inches of growth per week, I cannot recommend nitrozyme enough for twice weekly foliar spraying. Initially I was spraying 4 times a week, just to cover the canopy, and this resulted in an explosive growth rate. So far the leaves are luscious green and stems are very strong and far from brittle, I have noticed one plant has dwarfed, I have also removed 1 plant from this system and it didn’t even show signs of growing back in the earlier stages, I just forgot to mention. 7 plants in total now with 1 dwarfed. After a good trim these are now ready to enter the flowering period.
@DankDudez, very well done, Dark devils are not so easy. but it looks as i youve done a lot things right. they loved to grow without soil or medium that keeps them.
@Mrs_Larimar, Thank you for following this one, this is my first ever Auto grow so its been hit and miss at the best of times, a learning curve most definitely! These are now soon to be totally harvested other than the 2 i have already done. Keep your eyes peeled!
@Mrs_Larimar, Hydro in NFT is very much a missed method nowadays, as beginner as it is, its also very complex due to the root spreading and interlocking root mass, so if one plant gets bad, you cant pull it out. Precision with water is crutial. But yes i totally agree, my methods have tweaked a lot from running photos in an NFT to Auto's, but i think we have it nearly nailed :)
@Sweet_Seeds, not a problem at all! Only had 1 seed not germinate and 1 dwarf out a little, but other than that they are really reacting well to these growing methods. The room is a temporary room but once i start my next it will be complete. I will be adding week 7 flower photos shortly.
Thanks again for the reply!
