Germination
8 months ago
Auto from Sasha - Joint Doctor. 24h in water, then transferred to soil - Canna Terra Professional in 20L plastic pots. Pots are specially made for autoflowers - they are 40cm in height - so they can grow somewhat bigger before they flip themeselves - will see if that works as expected. This one was hardest to germinate - I had to manually break the seed with sandpaper to free the seedling. She managed to germinate and root after that - but seems like growth cone is somewhat damaged. She is still very slow and weird - but I hope she will get over this issue 🙏

This one almost did not make it - but it pulled through! He just started to build normal nodes and I hope it will speed up soon - it's far behind and it does not does not bode well for an auto yield to be this stunted. We'll see it the end what's on the scales. 😎

Yesterday I transfered it to 3x3 tent under Lumatek Attis 300w set at 60%. It produces 300-400 μmol/m²/s for at canopy level. I'm not topping them - only bending (LST) and some leaf tucking and light defoliation if absolutely needed. It's not flowering yet - which is great. Longer veg = better for me. It is the smallest one - had some issues germinating - but it pushed through and is doing it's thing. It is far behind the rest - at least a week of growth - but I hope it will just start flowering later than it's sisters. We'll see. I'm just happy it's alive - I almost gave up on this one. 😷

She is doing it! Every week she feels better and grows faster. I'm proud of her. Luckily she did not started to flower yet so has some more time to build up branches and nodes - yeah! She will be ~2 weeks behind the rest but I'm happy she pushed through. Well done tyke! Now she gets 80% from Lumatek 300W and gets ~600 μmol/m²/s for at canopy level.

She is doing great. Almost did cach up to the rest but needed a little help to not get overgrown - she's on a 14cm platform to make it even-ish with rest of canopy. She started throwing pistills like 1-2 days ago so soon she'll flower at last - great moment for that - she is big enough! They all got a little defoliation today - I removed some biggest leaves covering budsites and overlaping other leaves - creating moisture pockets. Everything seems fine as for now. I'll be back in a week with next update! 😎

All Doctor's Choice girls are doing great! Healthy, stacking tight and stacking like crazy. They exceed my expectations so far. Bravo Sasha! I have to do a little defoliation from time to time - it's very dense canopy and I need to by wary of leaves touching and making moisture spots. DC #1 did some rocket fueled growth this week - she was on 14cm platform to make her even with canopy - but now I removed the platform and she still is BIGGER than the rest. Crazy, crazy girl. Was the weakest of them all - I almost discarded her as seedling - but now she is giving back for sparing her life 😅😍

I did overfed all of them. EC did skyrocket up to 5, pH did fall below 5. Not good. Whole week I've been giving only water with pH 7.5 to help them recover. This one got the least damage - but she is super tall and almost touching light now. It was my weakest link and now it's becoming a monster - her size probably helped absorb some excess nutes.

I burned them. No point of keeping until the end. Chopped and used for bubble hash.
