Some of the dates on the plants may be off a couple days but the sprout date for both Skywalkers is 10/22 and the FS / 3 Bog is 10/29. The Strawberry Nuggets was turned into a house plant as it simply couldn't compete for light with the other plants. The FS/3 Bog despite having a rough start and never really perking up during veg has really taken off and completely taken over the entire 2x4 tent. If it wasn't tied up it would envelop the entire tent. I have a manual loupe that I was using to try to look at the trichomes but its hard for me to focus while holding it but I will attempt to take some photos of the main colas under the loupe. Interestingly enough there is only a few diaries online of the Forum Stompers / 3 Bears OG cross freebie that were seen to completion and they all seem to be beasts of a plant like this one is. There were multiple reports of the strain herming out but seems to be doing well despite all the issues it faced in my first novice grow. I also for some reason didn't see the responses to my last question until it was too late but perhaps using some type of plant food would have been good but I figured the HF/OF would be able to see the autoflowers out til the end. One of the biggest mistakes as well was not filling the 3 gallon pots to the top with soil and just not having a good understanding of the way the roots drink and how important the VPD is. I have sourced a few bottles of nutrients as it appears that the plants will need more nutrients beyond the soil to reach there potential. I have a bottle of Cha Ching, Open Sesame, and Beastie Bloomz, I will also consider ordering the Fox Farms Liquid nutrient mixes after I do some research and figure out what is my best option budget wise and will continue to monitor the trichomes. I am am also going to try to get a better phone for taking some better pictures. Appreciate all the advice and great information from the community couldn't have done this without you guys. Week 9 shall begin tomorrow with some extensive photos to begin the week.

See some curled tips, discoloring, odd growth on the smaller plants and the discolored curled tips on skywalker #2 are concerning. Would appreciate any advice.

Wow your VPD is crazy high. That means your plant is transpiring at a massive rate. VPD is the measurement of vapor pressure in the leaf, as it relates to the vapor pressure in the air (air humidity) With a 78F temp coupled with 30% humidity, your plants Stomata are wide open and cranking up the water and nutrients at a rate that is too fast and can cause excessive nutrient uptake which can lead to toxicity in your plants, and can deplete nutrients in the soil much faster than necessary. Your relative humidity in your space at this stage of growth and at the room temp of 78F your humidity should be up around 70% NOT 30% Get yourself a humidifier, or dump water on the floor of your space. You can roll up a towel and lay it along the edge of your tent and soak it. You can leave a tray in there with water, like a baking sheet or something. The more water surface exposed to the air the high the evaporation rate. Next feed i would do a 400ppm mix at a 6.2 pH The other thing is the plant in question looks like it's suffering from light stress. Back off your light a bit with a dimmer, or just raise it a foot. There is such a thing as too much light and it can cause your plants to bleach white and yellow.

Seem to be having some issues week 1 of flowering, red stems breaking down the middle, Skywalker #1 has lines developing on the stalk, the runoff PH's are all in range, temps have been a bit lower but 74-75f seems reasonable. Am worried I may have botched this.

Cold temps, Wrong or lack of right food Light burn Genetics. Last two impossible, genetics goes gradually, light burn effects stems of leaf not plant itself. That leaves you with most probably for me from look - cold temps. But you need at least 18 cel or less, you are far from that range. That leaves you with food issues. You been offered 3 versions Sulphur - bleaching of leaves, going pale , colour from green change to lime. I had once, heavy, you are not in that boat 99.999% Magnesium - yeah, if progressed heavy, stems of plant will get pinky red, but leaves will be way earlier tiger stripy ... Not that case. Potash - most likely if feed was issue, light paling of leaves, red stems of leaves, can progress to plant. Overwatering and lack of oxygen can play such tricks too, but again then you look at stage of leaves and plant, think its not the case too. From look i would say cold night spell, from info - most prob potash.

Honestly for young plants they look quite well to me! Definitely would be good to get humidity up. Humidifier would help or if you can slow you exhaust if temp doesn't rocket it may help some as well. I wouldn't think at this stage cal/mag would be making a huge issue on the plants. My personal advice on a first grow is not rushing to fix anything especially this early. If you can definitively identify issues correct them but if you aren't certain, I find waiting to get a better idea of the issue is more often better than throwing solutions at problems till 1 sticks. You will learn alot from your first grow even if it doesn't turn out perfectly. So far it looks quite well for a first grow imo! Good luck!

You good bro try the wet towel method to raise your humidity to least 58/60 constant they should perk up godbless.maybe try your light cycle to 18/6 22 hours you got now is maybe to much light with your humidity problem just sort humidity out first allbest bro
