Will skip from week 1 to start of week number 4.
Important notes in the progress are following.
1: Day 1-16 only water enough for it to dry up one time every day when the light cycle turns of.
2: Between day 16 and start of weak number 4
we cut of the stem at the fifth nod.
for us to easier control the size of the plant and for it to yield. We also applied stem traning this whole period of time.
Start of week number 3, here you can see the result of cutting the top of the stem. We water about 0,4 liter water every night when the light goes out.
Any suggestions on defolaition or other things i can do to improve the growth of this plant? Im a little bit lost on what i could remove or do to improve the quality of this beauty.
I would make cross wrom fat soft gardening wire or from cotton gardening line and secure all 4 tops clser to center and further from walls. That way you will maximize light ( all works best in the centre and loose power further from it, now your most effective spot is used only for bootom suckers ) and will create less stress for plant from rubbing leaves into walls , plus stems will get extra support ... pull them 3-5 cm closer to center .
That i would do ;)
I did Burn the top of my buds so i had to LST the 2 main colas and the result was more sun for all the flowers, Now its mid of week 8 and the carbon filter is still rocking hard! Only gonna give it nutrients one more time since im not going to flush the roots.
Hey pal. So, looking at your diary.
Your plant/environment could do with some basic tweaks..these should improve your quality of end product overall..
Nutrient wise. Make sure you are giving something that had sugars/resin. This will help during fattening/ripening. Also, make sure you are feeding Calmag at least once a week (solo feed 150ppm of calmag added to your tap)
Keep your main NPK feeds low, 4-600ppm max. Bloom stems, enzymes sugars, don't add to NPK ppm. So, make sure if you're making mixes you get proper measurements and try keep all your feeds (water/Nutrients) any mix, the PH should be kept within range of the sub. So soil 6.5-7, organic nutrients don't really matter ph wise. But the like of calmag you need to make sure ph is right. And atm, she's showing serious calcium def..
Also, if you can lower those 2 big colas to make more of an even ppfd map across your whole plant surface area. So, since pre flower is WAY over. You can HST those big colas..Fell them to an area that is away and not covering the middle.
That light will struggle to finish that with it being so big. Those top colas will take up so much ppf away from your lower parts of the plant so lowering them so they sit sideways will allow you to lower your light and help wit all the bud sites. Try open up with leaf tucking as much as possible and if you have to remove some big old fan leaves to allow light to reach deeper into your plant.
Feel free to DM me if you need any more detailed tips.
Hello mate, looking your photos tha plant appears to be ready for the harvest but without a microscope it's very difficult to see the condition of trichomes. Anyway if the trichomes are cloudy it means they have already cannabinoids and terpenes. The effect will be more cerebral otherwise you could wait one week more.
Are you using a loupe or microscope?
Make sure to look at the trichomes on the buds and calyx.
Don't pay attention to leaf trichomes.
Some strains won't ever turn amber.
Some other signs a plant is ready to harvest,
Buds are no longer growing
Swollen calyx
Most of pistils amber and curling
Reduced water uptake by plants
Where you want your trichomes is going to change depending if it's a Indica, Sativa or Hyrbid.
Royal Jack Auto is a balanced Hybrid so I would aim for most of the trichomes to be milky.
amber starts very weak in color and is hard to see in early stages. But you dont need to see them, if the most of the trichomes ON THE BUD is milky, just harvest the bich
Easy to grow even if we kinda helicopter parenting the shit out of it. No good strain for sleep but amazing for creativity and up'ing your brain activity for daily purposes. Got 110 dry grams out of 1 plant

Alohaaa! I'll be popping the same genetic from Seedstockers next week!!
Quick note on your 3rd week of VEG, you should not irrigate while is "bed time", you should be irrigating in the morning after they 'wake up' or earliest as possible during the day.
Cheers from Colombia!! 🤘🔥🔥🔥
