Planted August 4th. Popped above soil August 6th. Growing in a 3 gallon fabric pot with a solo cup of FoxFarm Happy Frog mixed with 25% worm castings in the center. The rest of the pot is filled with FoxFarm Ocean Forest mixed with 1 Tbsp per gallon Langbeinite (3 Tbsp).
Week 1 of veg for this random autoflower. This is my first autoflower and I couldn't be more excited. Especially since I moved and the first three plants (photoperiods) that popped for me turned out to be males. It happens and I'm not upset because now I get to try some autoflowers. Good luck and have fun with your grows :)

Week 2 of veg and they are looking short and bushy. Currently receiving around 480 ppfd. Day 1 of veg week 2 and I am thinking of moving my plant off the rack and into a tray. Lowering the ppfd to create some stretching. Currently all three nodes are extremely close together. Thoughts? Going to start the week off with a Silica watering for dinner to promote good root growth and strength. Will be Silica watering first day of each veg week.
UPDATE: Raised my light 1 inch to lower the ppfd to 440 ppfd. ***conditions section is adjusted to this update.

Week 3 of veg and I'm happy with how the plant is turning out. Going on it's 5th node at the end of week 2. Ready to be topped and given another feed of silica. I was watering only the center area until Day 19. I increased the amount of water given and the area covered. Nothing but positive signs from the plant since watering the entire pot. If all goes to plan I will top and feed silica Day 1 of week 3 and beginning LST (Low Stress Training) shortly after.
UPDATE: Day 22 - Raised light to 27 inches hoping for better stretching. Day 23 - Still deciding whether to top or not. Too short and stubby for me to feel confident in applying LST.

Week 4 and it is still in veg but was looking quite droopy with purple stems on Day 27. I thought I was going to lose her. Thankfully rain water helped but with the only ph test I have, it read 6.8. Which to me is a little on the higher side. So I caved in a purchased a ph meter and an air pump kit. Will oxygenate my rain water and ph to 6-6,2 for future watering. Will try LST on some branches if it comes back strong after a couple watering.

Week 5 and A1 has started to flower. Going to give nutrients again Day 37 and will continue LST. Day 39 added Epsom Salt water.

Week 6 and A1 is in full flower. Flowers are looking great but the plant has been so up and down. I may have given too many nutrients which is still half of what was recommended. Maybe it needs cooler temps and lower humidity. I am not entirely sure because my other plants seem to leave the grow space. Day 45 turned lights to 100%.

Week 7 and I am not sure how to fix my deficiency. I think it is a zinc deficiency so I will be flushing my plant this week hoping that it will help but I have maintained my ph at 6.2. According to everything I have read it could also be over watering which I don't feel like I have done. I let my plants dry out almost 2 inches deep in the soil. One day I will figure it out. For now I will do less and see what happens.

Week 8! Not sure how I got this far but I'll take it. Definitely nothing impressive and that's okay. We all have to start somewhere. Thankfully the dose of Recharge I added last week has stopped the spread of deficiency. Pretty sure I had lock out. Not sure why though. Either way she looks to be back on track and maturing quite fast. Will be checking the trichomes this week and continuing the silica and Recharge feeding (on seperate days).
