She grew amazingly without causing me any issues. Very closely matched the description provided by Mephisto too. Now to wait and see how yield and final smoke will be.
Decided to harvest today rather than giving a compost tea feed. All pistols have turned brown and breeder recommends harvest between 75-80 days and I have to totally agree with their guideline.
Smoke review
Got way less final weight than I was expecting. I definitely over trimmed her in the beginning (removing the lateral branches didnβt have desired effect of more dense bud) and in so doing I have greatly impacted final yield. I had expected her to stretch more when I was defoliating. Still very happy with final quality of product and all my other ladies appear as if they will be yielding more.
Well done, my friend! What a stunning lady!
If it's not too much trouble, I have a question for you. I've been looking your diaries and noticed that you begin administering the Compost Tea in the third week. Is there a specific rationale behind this timing?
I've seen some videos of them suggesting to start around day 35 in autoflowering plants, since Ive seem some people complaings about flowering issues with Biotabs, I was considering beginning around day 25 since the stretching phase has commenced, and I'm already noticing lots of pistils.
What is your perspective on this?
@GrowsHimself, Thank you for the insightful explanation, my friend. I'm currently employing the "only add water strategy," alongsid Tea + PK. I truly appreciate your suggestion of gradually introducing small feedings with Tea early on. As for your suggestion regarding giving tabs on day 1, it seems plausible. I sought guidance on utilizing Biotabs (Nice guys btw, even sent me free stuff) with autoflowers since the available information is rather generic. They advised giving one tab a week after transplant, followed by another 2 to 3 weeks later. However, they also shared a success story of a grower who applied the tabs immediately after transplanting, yielding excellent results.
@Lambeta, oh and also auto add itβs not a trouble at all π im genuinely so glad you are following along and getting info from my grow. This is the greatest hobby in the world
@Lambeta, oh and also to add, I am currently adding the biotabs at the first sign of pre flowers. I havenβt come across any issues this way yet so Iβd definitely say you should go for it yourself π Are you using the other dry amendments in the range?
@@247420, the first strain I grew by Mephisto was their Illuminauto Sweet nβ smelly (my profile pic is one of her buds). My personal favourite so far has been ManBearAlienPig then Double Grape a close second!
@Mastr, 1.7kg wow Iβm impressed bro! I have seen some people attach a spoon to a drill and using that to automatically stir the mixture (might be something to consider for the sake of your arms lol). How did the last batch of hash that you made smoke in the end?
