Two Outdoor Skunks Autoflower

haschischhelmut The other two Skunk Autoflower. They were planted 10 days later than the ones from my first grow report. They germinated right away with perfect weather and grew well because of it. The last few days the weather has been rather bad. Starting from May 8th, the weather slowly got better again, so both have been growing great since then until May 12th.

haschischhelmut The week starts with a lot of sunshine. Hopefully, the weather holds up. Interestingly, one plant is about 2 days ahead of the other, even though both germinated on the same day and had the same positions. I’ve now figured out why one might be bigger than the other: the larger one received more direct sunlight in the evenings than the other. Now the smaller one is in a different spot in the evenings and is catching up nicely. Especially on days 17 and 18, both have grown significantly. Since I wanted to try out LST, I thought I’d use the smaller plant and see what happens.

haschischhelmut The plants have both grown well this week, although the weather wasn't good in the first half. The one with LST has adapted well, feel free to give feedback on whether the LST is okay. On day 26, there was Guano fertilizer 4-1-2. The bigger plant (without LST) already has a slight smell when you hold your nose close to it.

haschischhelmut On the 31st, I used Guano fertilizer (NPK 4-1-2). Both plants have grown well despite the difficult weather, and the big one is now showing the first pistils by the end of the week. Unfortunately, I only noticed too late that the wire was too tight on one plant, which has caused the stem to be a bit deformed.

haschischhelmut Both have developed well, especially the one with LST, which has grown quite a bit more and the side shoots are coming up now too. I also removed two leaves from the bottom of this plant that were really heavily shaded by other leaves. I could have definitely taken off a few other leaves, but I didn't dare to do it. The big plant without LST is now also showing more pistils and it has really grown a lot this week.

haschischhelmut At the beginning, I probably overwatered the big one, which is why it's drooping its leaves. Otherwise, both are currently in the stretch phase.

haschischhelmut The little one of the two already has some trichomes :). The other one is now already bigger than my very first plant.

haschischhelmut This week it was very warm with lots of sun. Both got flowering nutrients for the first time from compo sana grow. The smaller one with LST is, for some reason, already significantly further along in flowering and should definitely be ready to harvest in 2-3 weeks, even though the buds are very small and thin.

haschischhelmut Good weather. I'm trying to use my phone camera to see how ripe the trichomes are. It's working out semi-well, I think I'll order a magnifying glass.

haschischhelmut Good weather. The magnifying glass arrived over the weekend and the trichomes look good. I would say almost all are milky and no amber. I will wait until the end of next week for the smaller one.

haschischhelmut Top wet. Unfortunately, the pot from the smaller plant fell off the chair and broke in a stronger breeze. But I will harvest it anyway next Monday when the temperatures are a bit more pleasant.

haschischhelmut The larger of the two is still left. It takes a bit longer but has a much better bud structure and has also grown much bigger.

haschischhelmut The smaller of the two was harvested on 07/22 and hung outside to dry. Let's see how much it yields. Unfortunately, it grew weirdly in terms of flower structure. But it has a nice autumn color :)

haschischhelmut From the trichomes and the calyx size, it still has some potential. It will be harvested next week on the 8th or 9th and hung up to dry.
