Cream Manderine XL Auto

AutoCrazy Week one for my second attempt at sweet seeds cream manderine xl auto. First run was a failure. Made some rookie mistakes :-(. Second times the charm though!! She seems to be off to a solid start. I am struggling with low humidity but she doesn’t seem to care. She is getting plain pH 6.5 water and not much at this point.

AutoCrazy Week 2 for this cream manderine xl auto by sweet seeds. She is doing great! She has been the best out of the gate of the three ladies I have on the go right now. I introduced very light nutrients this week. 0.3ml grow big by fox farm in the 500ml she drinks every other watering along with 1 ml of root stim per 500ml of water. I am really enjoying this lady and hopeful for the coming weeks 😁

AutoCrazy Week 3 has been a fairly eventful week. She has grown a bunch and she was also topped (my first time topping). Topping her didn’t seem to slow her down at all!! I feel like she is gonna be a big plant. Much bigger then my Northern lights that is just two days younger. (See my other diary for that one). I am feeding: 1 ml of Grow Big per litre 1 ml of Root Stim per litre 0.5 ml of Floronectar per litre. She gets water every 3 days at this point. Although I have turned my second 1000 watt LED on so temps have gone up a bit so might have to start watering more often. Time will tell All in all I am really happy with this sweet seed xl auto so far. 😎

AutoCrazy Week 4 has gone reasonably well aside from a sign of nitrogen toxicity (see pictures). I have done a flush and she will be on plain pHd water this week or I may add a little fox farm big bloom (we will see how things go) The growth has been good aside from the nitrogen issue. She has really branched out and preflower has started 🤩. The exciting part is around the corner!!😎

AutoCrazy Week 5 for this CM xl auto by sweet seeds. Week 5 started out good but mid week she got really droopy and a lot of clawing in the leaves. There is a lot of red in the stems and on the branches which is a bit concerning. I tried a different mixture of amendments to my soil and I think I have created a bit of a hot soil as there have been multiple signs of too much N. I did a flush so hopefully things improve. I am only feeding lightly with Fox Farm Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom. I have been alternating them every other watering this week. I would normally still feed some Grow Big but I am having N issues already so that would just make things worse. I am sure this plant won’t reach its potential but I am going to give it my best to get her across the finish line. Enjoy the pics all. PS. Please feel free to write any suggestions as to how I can help remedy my excess nitrogen issue. Any tips would be helpful. 😎

AutoCrazy Week 6 has seen flowering start. Growth has really stalled this week (not throwing out many fans leaves and all vertical growth seems to have stopped). She is starting to show slight yellowing spots on some of the lower older fan leaves so I have started to add a little cal/mag. We will see if this helps things.
