Bro your PH is too high : 7ph in coco isn't recommended, you should try to stick to 5.8 to 6.3 with a sweet spot at 5.8 so it is the 1st reason why your plant could/will remain short and have deficiencies. I see in the comment that you found a solution against spider mites : I would recommend neem oil to keep it organic. Concerning the temps I would try to settle a difference between day and night temps just to imitate the natural environment parameters. Last observation : your feeding chart looks weird , try to find the flora series coco chart on Google and tweak it a bit if you want And don't forget that coco requires more nutrients than a soil grow 😊👍

To be honest with you at that very moment what you need is to read some articles about coco growing because a short or even long answer will not correctly feed your need to learn more about coco grow. So I am posting a link to a well known website for you in the comment section 😊

That has a lot to do with how you want your plant to look . At this point it may be to late to just trim off some of the branches as that will cause lots of stress to your plant and slow down growth , possibly even stunt it or turn it hermie . I would say that 20 branches is too much because some of the canopy will be to thick and some of the lower branches may not get the light they need to fully form the flowers .Usually when growing you would remove the lower branches on the plant in order to try and achieve and even canopy so that you are ensured all your tops are getting the same light and grow evenly . At the end of the day tho its up to you on how you want your plants to look and grow . I hope this information helps you understand the choices you have and the proper time to remove lower branches on your plant . -Happy Growing!

i am impressed i am smokeing her already for 2 weeks regulary i have already smoken about 20 % ))) but she is still a monstar. she has a very sweet aroma never smelled anything like that before. she started as the breeders said and i had a high tempriture in the box and it helped foxtailing. so i am happy and pleased. recommend this strain !!o UPDATE: everything u see pn the photos are 95 gr ))))) WoW and as i said defore i have already smoked 4 avarage buds it would be 15-20 gr so i harvested from this monstar MOBY DICK XXL around 115 grams woooooooooooooow !!!!!!! auto flowering monstaaar !!! P.S. The bong is 40 cm )))))

to get rid of spider mites look up and buy live ladybugs, there are companies that send you some and this works

@DinafemSeeds, i do not have pen i am using PH indicator drops so everything is correct :((
DinafemSeeds
DinafemSeedscommented6 years ago
@balansa, I know this may be a stupid question but is your ph pen calibrated correctly? Do you have a basic ph test kit to double check your ph run-off? By the sound of things you either 1 have a bad ph pen that need re-calibrating 👍 2 have a lot of built up nutrients in the medium 👍 All the best ✌️ Mark..

The yellowing on the leaves could be a potassium deficiency at a early stage or a simple nitrogen deficiency. At that stage maybe they need a bit more nutrients
OutForReal
OutForRealcommented6 years ago
@balansa, Yeah when you have different strains you sometimes need to prepare 2 separate feeding to fulfill each strains needs 😒 and it can be complicated like you said . Concerning your plants I would not bet on the light , to me it's just that the yellowing one did not have enough nutrients during the stretch and she must still searching for some because she is now using the nutrients stocked in the leaves which is making them yellowing , I think you should increase the N amount just for that one but I'm not 100% sure 😓

@OutForReal, i added more nuts but its still progressing now i took lamp a little bit higher. i think its not good to have different trains at the aame time in a little box ))) its getting more complicated ))) one is feeling great the other is not ))))))))))

Another AutoDinafem adventure up and running on the grow diary platform and this time is with our Autoflowering Moby Dick xxl 👍 I agree with other members my friend. When your lights are out you ideally want the temperature to drop. I like a 10o(f) which is roughly 5o(c). Taking my light on temps from 79o(f)(lights on) to 69o(f)(lights out). Try to not let it drop to much though as this to could cause issues 👍 Good luck with the grow mate. Let's see what you can do with our Moby dick xxl auto 👊 All the best ✌️ Mark..

@balansa, I would start training early with those side branches to maximize light distribution and I would not top just yet! Give her another 7-10 day's before you top. Ideally at node 5-6 👌 Looking good so far my friend and thank you for diary update 👍 All the best ✌️ Mark..

@whitebeard, I'll happily give you a few suggestions my friend 👍 Any of our XXL strains will produce big yields but so will Auto Blue Kush Auto Blue Cheese Auto Sour Diesel I've seen amazing results from all 3 of these autos and they are not XXL variants. They grow like a XXL autoflowering strain and produce big yields with amazing flowers produced 👌 I hope that helps mate 👍 All the best ✌️ Mark..

Our Moby dick xxl is well into bloom now and starting to pack on that weight 👍 I am a little concerned at the yellowing of the leaves at this stage of the Grow. Personally to me your plants look hungry and could have used a boost in feed 👍 Worth keeping in mind for your next grow buddy 👊 We will keep dropping in as you update mate 👍 All the best ✌️ Mark..
DinafemSeeds
DinafemSeedscommented6 years ago
@balansa, Your at day 63-65 now and Moby dick xxl auto typically take a 75-80 day's total. So she still has a good 14+ days to pack on that extra weight 👍 Do you have anyway to check trichome colour and development mate? This in my opinion is the best way to judge the harvest window 👌 I'll keep dropping in as harvest approaches my friend 👊 All the best ✌️ Mark..
