6/11 day 55 day 56. Officially 2 months of growth. Somehow I've kept an auto flower in the vegetative stage for quite a bit of time. They are flowering and have stretched a ton. I will get actual measurements for each plant this
Pheno #1 looks more indica (they all are) than the others. The pistils are shorter but more of them and the node spacing is a tighter than the others and she's stayed the shortest(least amount of stretch) and has thicker leaves(maple leaf style) her pistils started white and now have a pink tone to them and on closer inspection, some of the sugar leaves are purpling. This one could be expressing it more so because of environment. This week we've had lows and rains and cloudy weather. The other night it was in the low 40s, so in hindsight it might be environmentally expressed.
Pheno #2 is the one that's been the most well rounded the whole time. Popped quick and has always been steady and not too tall and not too short. Her pistils are bright white like roots or an initial taproot. But the calyx are a deep deep purple. I believe this purple expression to be a genetic phenotypical expression rather than environment. The purple clashes with the white so beautifully. They just makes it all pop with the green. It honestly looks like a purple clover flower 😄
hey i saw you mentioned airy buds in week 12, has the issue become better ? and if yes, what6 did you do ? i think mine has the same issue and imn not sure iff its a defficeency or i just gotta give her more time.
@losgehts, i tried sending you a message but i saw you had a question a bout a leaf issue on one of your plants. my suggestion is to make sure your plants are recieving water without chlorine. i have started boiling water and then cooling it down in a bucket outside and using that. they look very similiar to calcium def and if youre not careful and keep adding calcium to help, it can cause issues as well. but try to dechlorinate your water. it makes a huge difference
@losgehts, yeah im not sure man. i think it could be genetics plus environment. these ladys have had a longer life than most autos. ive done so many things wrong but somehow they seem to be mostly fine. like they spent almost 2 months outside in shotty spring weather and then i even transplanted them mid flower. but in my opinion, i think these may be a nitrogen sensitive plant and vould probably do with less than what i was providing them. that could also show in the massive stretching that i had with them. my nutrient formula is a 711 npk value and it suggested to use it in conjunction with the bloom for the forst 4 weeks of flower, which worked magically with my photo periods but i think i shouldve dialed it back and even possibly only added the bloom, which is a 374 npk i believe.
i shouldve treated them more like autos than photos lol
so they all 3 have airy buds on the bottom half. the top cola is pretty solid on all 3 even with the airy bud structure. some are more airy than others. i will have to see how they dry. also i normally would trim all the lower larfy stuff and i just didnt this time. i really didnt think they were going to make it this far. they stalled like the first month of their life. but i just wanted to see what they would do without manipulation from me.
@modmyplants, will do. these may go towards hash. the trichomes are fairly pronounced and the trichome to plant matter ratio seems higher than other cultivars that id smoke.
