Technique
OK so I've hit week 2 of flower stage. She has finished pre flower and bud sites are forming.
Looking sooooo good, smelling sweet already. The deep purple is amazing and the best I've ever grown so far even in this early stage I can tell she's going to be a phenomenal taste.
What I have done to prepare for flower:
Added a cane, to later support side branches. Using atm to tame main colar as I'll need to keep bending back and forth now to keep inside tent π€¦ββοΈπ.
I have noticed a slight overfeed sign, end of leaf tips turning a bright yellow but only the very tips. So I have reduced Base nutes and raised pH to 6.2 now.
Start of this week I noticed it stopped and she has started to return to pump out fan leaves.
I may need additional advice / support on how to tame a main color this late into it, as I'm running out of ideas π
.
So day 11 flower. Lst working well allowed alot more room for buds to grow, she has accepted it nicely too. Look at the development daily π€€π
Happy growing everyone πππ

Grow Questions
pifflestikkzstarted grow question 8 months ago
I have noticed rusting on the autoflower leaves, it is within its last 2 weeks of cycle, but looking into, it looks like a cal mag deficiency.
Is she just hungry? Do calmag every feed and water?
I'm trying the latter to combat the problem, any advice for future ref is appreciated

LSchnabelanswered grow question 8 months ago
It looks like a cal/mag deficiency but I would not worry about it this late into the game. Youβre nearly to the finish line by the looks of things.
I would just water with pure pH balanced water from here on out. Let the plant use up as much of the stored energy as it can, in my opinion it really helps the cure process.
For future grows, I would boost your cal/mag up slightly during flowering, especially the first 3-4 weeks. If you wish to run cal/mag during your whole grow it would be best to find a nitrate free source of CalMag to do that.
I hope this helps.

@James, hi James, I have added a cane, and tied down sides the most I can, what else can you recommend to try tame the main colar without stressing to much, should I just try to work her down to a 90' Bend like mainlining but from 3/4th node down? That's my last idea but I think I could cause more damage and stunt than necessary.

@James, thank you James, advice taken. I've tried to lst her sides down literally to the brim of my pot now, I'll update tomorrow with a picture. If I struggle and she keeps climbing, I may need to ask for recommendations about height limits as she only has 45cm till surface of lightt now!!
Getting worries was not anticipating this monster π
she's taking up over a 3rd of a 1.2 x 60 cm tent. So hopefully I can keep pulling her back or possibly supercropping? Never tried on a auto before though.

@GrowsHimself, I'm so shocked at what this auto has provided on a wet bud weight after her initial wet trim.
Amazing.
Thank you so much for following and showing support growmie ππ
I'll update dry bud weight and smoke report soon βοΈ

Looking very nice, 10 different nutrients,that would drive me nuts!

@MrJones, thank you π she's doing herself proud atm π.
I know tell me about it, takes too long, but on the other hand, using advanced nutrients like this was expensive but I want to rest the yeild, to doing the same run before Xmas but with just base and possibly 2 or 3 of the extras.
I was using RQS easy tabs but they didn't quite deliver on the quality of buds when it came to flower.

@MrJones, thank you, I have just noticed my pH pen is out of calibration so I need to sort today, but she is still swelling. Think this will be last week of feeds for her, but yeah advanced nutrients are bloody expensive if you want to do the works, I'm doing these 2 runs on them to see if more beneficial or just stick to base nutrients and odd extra.
Thanks for commenting βοΈπ

@GrowsHimself, thank you π honestly the best pheno I've ever done. Don't know if I was lucky to get a purple or if they have now dialed the pheno colours down perfect.
But the plant just impresses me daily.
Like you say for a auto she grows large, wide and tall like a photo, but minumum effort.
If popping these, I would advise LST to prep for her stretch as she does climb πβοΈπ
Good luck growmie π€
