Not a terrible week just setting up the enviroment that I wanted and sustaining it. Seeds have been put straight into canna pro soil and will show their heads soon!
They seem to be growing well, the pictures are from day 16... going to try RDWC next as I’m not happy with the growth rate. One Plant which I will call #2 is slightly drooping I’m thinking this is due to my HPS lights coming on overnight (my grow partner was messing about).
In my first week I messed up with the lights and temperature could this have had a detrimental impact on the growth rate as they look very small for their age?
Autos are always like a time bomb to me...any set backs will cost you time. But if you still have new growth and other growth that isn't full damaged they'll pull through. They just might be a bit unique.✌️
It will have an impact but it wont be life threatning to your plant . Take it as a learning lesson and try avoid the same mistakes for your next grow :) This is how we learn . I also might suggest that you slow down on that nutrients . Thats a very strong mix for a plant that small . I would reduce the strength by half maybe even 1/4 and work your way up as the plant grows . You typically dont wanna start going hard on the nutrients early like this so that you dont burn the roots leading to what we call nutrient burns or toxicity of nitrogen or other compounds . Other then that your well on your way to getting yourself some nice medicine ! I hope this information helps shine a little light on whats going on here . - Happy Growing!
Hey! What you say is correct! That could've stunned her growth but with enough care you should see her growing again! Just remember to check your water and try to rise the air humidity for this stage! 70%~ would be ideal for seedlings and that will probably help with the growth!
Good luck! 👍
Slight leaf curling on one of the plants and a nutrient deficiency I am working on... I didn’t clock that I had planted in Coco and was treating it like soil, rookie mistake but hey ho!
Lots more growth this week they seem to have sorted themselves out a bit wondering whether to top the 3rd node on the larger plant and see what happens!?
First go at fimming on plant number one and it looks a bit messed up (hopefully it will grow out!), they both suffered from a bit of light intensity so the hps light has been moved upwards and I am going to start spraying the leaves with water every day or so.

Slight nitro burn (leafs clawing) I am giving half bloom nutrients for 2 days and 2 litres to flush the roots and get them back on track! Slight defoliation and lst
The cookies are the smallest and slowest girls in the garden compared to the LSD which have taken over height wise and the Tangie which are well into flower... they are getting there and look healthy besides the drooping leaves (I think this is genetics as they have been the same since seedlings)
Chopped down a Tangie plant that weighed in at 80grams and the buds looked and smelled amazing! The cookies and LSD are really starting to pack on with the cookies being much slower.
So at the beginning of this grow (my first autoflower trials) I was hoping for 100grams off of each of the nine plants up to now we have a total of 1277 grams with three plants left!
Edit - the last Tangie was cut alongside three of the LSD plants and yielded a whopping 250grams dry.
There are still currently 1x LSD and two huge cookie plants being flushed as I type.
Any advice on getting a better smell from the buds would be great!
Current drying technique -
All sugar leaves and fan leaves are trimmed off completely.
Plants are left drying in cardboard boxes in the grow room for 7x days (or until small branches snap).
They are then cured in jars for a further 7 days until moisture stops fluctuating.
Boom
580grams off of the big lady and 340grams off he sis...
What can I say... my photos don’t even get this big! Well done fast buds... smoothies/Tangie next time!!
I asked my friend if I could have some of his soil as his plants were growing really well and he just didn’t let me know and having never grown in coco before I just presumed it was a mix (silly me!)
@CoastGrower,hey bro tell me about it I am going to feed my whole family with this grow! I have just started @fastbuds smoothie auto and some more Tangie so hopefully they go just as well!! (Diary will be up Monday).
Fastbuds have promised a cap so hopefully they pull through with that one and Fenton can be their new mascot!
Hey mate I use advanced nutrients bud candy (mostly just sugar) and my buds smell
great. I hear u can use mollases which is what I will try out next I think.
Hey there LordT any chance you've thought about buying an infrared thermometer gun? I picked one up on amazon for 20 bucks so i could check my leaf surface temp because i was having the light and heat stress worries too. It's been extremely fun to use and way helpful.
You're well on your way remember that growing cannabis is always a learning experience :) If you ever have any question just ask the community and someone will surely help you :) .
-Happy Growing!
Cheers mate I think I will give that a go next time (or maybe both!?) I did use some terpenez but was just wondering if maybe it is because they are autoflower?
