Seed germinated in 3 days. I planted it with tap root about 2 cm long. Popped up in 2 days. This is my first time growing so any pointers are appreciated.
Doing some heavy LST and tucking. Absolutely amazing how much this is growing. Seed was germinated on OCT 20,2018. Looks like it is starting to preflower? I’m not going to defoliate or do anything besides LST. So far I’ve just been giving it PH water and it is growing in PROmix Organic soil mixed with some compost soil that I got from my buddies worm farm.
My dark devil auto has just started to flower, not even a full week in yet. I have it planted in a 13” terra cotta pot (~2-2.5gallon) and there are a couple roots coming out of the bottom of the pot. Should I attempt to transplant into a bigger pot or is there anything I can do?
Judging by it's size, it has not fully populated the pot, meaning that transplanting will definitely disturb or damage the roots, which will be disastrous yield wise. Terracota pots are very tricky to transplant out of; if you want to do it, wait until the plant is bigger so the roots have filled the pot.
Still not home. Roomie says she’s getting real sparkly. A couple more days of nutes then going to flush her. Hopefully she’s ready to harvest before Christmas!
How long does it take from the stage my plant is at now until I harvest? I know what to generally look for (milky triches) but should I continue nutes at this stage or start my flush? Some lower yellowing leaves and the very tips turning yellow, only had nutes twice in 2 weeks.
Hey Bertabud, you're right to look for milky trychomes that's the only way to tell ! just a reminder you want to get a magnifier at least 40x and preferably 60x for comfort in order to see them. That's really the only way to tell, another good way to tell is simply to add 2 weeks to the recommended time from the breeder. So if the breeder says 10 weeks, then it will be 12 for sure ! Finally what i can say is that harvest for dark devil auto usually take 10 to 13 weeks, so you'll be ready in 3 to 5 weeks - basically last month ! That means wait another week at least before flushing. The yellowing is totally natural, but the burnt tips are a sign of nute excess, so cut the nutrients by half and respect the water - water - feed - water - water - feed schedule. You're almost there my friend, good luck ! 🚀
A lot of the leaves are turning yellow and curling up/ falling off. Not sure if it should be happening to this excess at this stage or if i’m not doing something right. Triches are still clear, buds are very frosty. Hairs are starting to turn red, about 25-30%. Smells soooo good/citrusy
Smells danky with hints of citrus. Got 1.25 oz off my first grow. Could have definitely done better if I was around more to take care of her. Smoke tastes soooo smooth and citrusy! Very much a “head” high
Very easy to grow. I wasn’t home a lot to give it much attention and would go 2-3 days sometimes without water. With a bit more care it may have done better but I am happy with the results for my first ever grow.0
Congratulations on your harvest my friend, You buds look amazing and this grow clearly shows that you put in the hard work over the last several months. I wish you the best in smoking these buds and hope you have even better success in your next grow. Cheers!
For your next automatic seed take the final pot after germination. They dont like transplants. Maybe think about airpots there you can transpalnt automatics very well. and for your situation now, i would say wait until she filled the pot and then because 2.2,5 gallon are small for her
The best way to get her out of the terracotta pot is to water the pot from the outside and then taking ahammer and smash the Terracotta pot. so the most roots sty intact for growing big and nicely
You can let her grow in that pot too , it will be a smaller yield but you dont have any transplanting stress
