There comes my second plant. Germinated directly into the Substrate after 3 days. Like with my other plants I will start her indoor at the window with a cheap grow light and move her outdoor as soon as the temperatures allow. I'm using BioBizz AllMix in a 4 liter grow bag. I put some normal growing soil in the middle top section for the first weeks (BioBizz AllMix would be to strong at the beginning).

I messed up LST. The stem broke and I had to fix it. Used some tape and also added a stick for support. Top of the lamp is below the bigger lamp, the side of the plant is under the small lamp. Hope the LST pays out. Meanwhile the plant entered flowering stage. Feeding her with some BioBizz Bio Bloom. Weather still bad so I keep her indoors.

Plant is looking good, the unintended HST did not harm her. Flowering looks good. To me trichonomes already look milky, but I think she still needs some weeks to develop. Weather still bad and cold. She sleeps inside and I move her outside 2/3 days per week.

Buds looking great now as I have moved her outside permanently and she gets a lot of sun. Looks like LST went quite fine, many buds with the same size and light intensity.

Another week outside but with not much sun. Trichonomes look milky already. 2-3 weeks to go I guess

Happy Harvest Day!

Critical Automatic was easy to grow and harvest was ok for the small effort growing and bad conditions (only cheap 25W lamp and mostly inside because of the bad weather). Total: ~ 48g which resulted in ~ 15g dry

Good luck and happy growing mate 🌱

Looks nice so far! To which direction is your balcony facing? Mine is northwest - so I have only 5h of direct sunlight. I started my critical just on may the fourth - hoping the force will do it instead of sunlight… since you are 2 weeks ahead I now have a comparison for my grow.

@Springtime, thanks, looking forward to your growth directly at the balcony! my Balcony is facing south with sun between 1pm and 8pm. But at the moment and also for the next 2-3 weeks she will stay inside at a window facing east with only some sun in the late afternoon. So the cheap growing light has to do a lot of work as she barely gets direct sun.

Broken stem = stronger resin production 💪 Broken Stem = HST = High Stress Training Give her time and love and she will pay out with liquid gold
