Began using nutrients on all plants even the week old seedling. Using the Lucas Formula @ 1/4 Strength.
Had a lot of issues with heat and humidity due to outside climate effecting heat levels in apartment.
- Moved light down.
- Seen a lot of growth this week.
- LSTing has had great results. May have started a bit to early but seems to be working out so far.
- Very short and bushy plant so far
- A couple of branches have snapped due to LSTing. Newbie here, researched and found out branches that were not completely snapped could be saved
- This led me to discover bending branches until they "kink" can actually be used as a type of LST
- 5th seed ended up straightening out and grew normally. Happy I did not throw it out. Very resilient

First signs of flowering during this week
- Worried about overcrowding of leaves and not enough light getting through. Based on research it is not good to trim Autos but i found later in this grow that my plants were strong enough to trim and actually seemed to benefit from more light being able to get through to lower branches
- Lots of growth still even though flowering has begun and due to it being an Autoflowering strain it will keep growing
- Had a bent stem this week on one plant, splinted it and seemed to have regenerated
-
- Plants are all looking very nice at this stage.
- Flowering is well under way and the buds are developing nicely throughout this week.
- Have not started LSTing 5th seed and it is growing very well
- Last week of the MH Light. Switch to HPS for flowering stage
- Switch from a MH Bulb to an HPS Bulb
- Discover "Fimming" a form of LST were you bend the stem to maintain its height. Not ideal for autos but seemed to work based on a small sample size.
- First week were I trimmed leaves from the plant. From research I found that most people suggest not to trim the autos as they have less time to recover. I found that if you have very healthy plants it can be done but to a point
- Had some brown spots forming on the leaves. From what I could figure out it is called Leaf Septoria and is caused by to much humidity and not enough air circulation. Trimmed all leaves with brown spots which was only a few
- Last feeding for the big 3 at 1/4 strength
- Flushed the big 3 with water only
- Still gave nutes to 5th seed
- Used microscope to check out trichomes from up close
- I will be doing a sequential harvest starting at the top and leaving the bottoms to develop longer.
- Harvested a few buds off big papi. May be a bit early but I was excited
This was my first grow and I did a bunch of research but I mostly figured it out as I went and I really enjoyed this strain. It was very resistant and took about 90-92 days from germination to harvest. The strain seemed to bounce back extremely well even after a heavy trimming. Did not really run into any health issues with the strain other than what I diagnosed as Leaf Septoria which is caused from to much humidity and not enough circulation. But overall will grow again and was very accurately advertised by Canuk Seeds.
Ended up with 256grams from this grow which I was pleasantly surprised with. Saved all the shake and made Cannabutter and Bubble Hash. Both turned out okay but with room for improvement in the future.
