Stardawg 2 is doing it's thing. Still got some budding to do so another 2-3 weeks I think at least. Partly because I have moved to a 12-12 light cycle now for #1 to try and flower, as well as a couple of photoperiods I have in the tent. I have attempted to supercrop the tops of #1 as it's above my reflector now. Too big lol. About 70-80cm.

Grow Questions

Ashbashstarted grow question 5 years ago
Basically, my question is: Can it be normal for an autoflower to not flower by day 54? #2 has started budding, but #1 is still just growing. Leaves are less rough too so I dont think its even started the change yet?!?!

hello friend, of course, an autoflowering can come to bloom in the 6th even in the 7th week, it just happens that the flowering period will be a couple of weeks shorter, some varieties like fastbuds says they are harvested in week 9 but some are can lengthen to the week 12 or 13, and is because the vegetation has been longer, may be for the number of hours, if you want a plant to flower before you must lower the hours of light to 11 or 12. greetings.

Force that air into one of the intakes if you can, the fan would do the job likely. Whats your extraction?

@Ashbash, Found this youtube vid, shows the relationship between heat and humidity and how the effect on your plants can be mitigated. Frankly I am so shocked mine survived and why no one mentioned this stuff. www.youtube.com/watch

@Ashbash, Yeah its a common additive, roses and tomatoes use it in particular IIRC. Lot of similarity between canna and those plants. I ordered this when I ran out of the other brand. General Hydroponics Armor SI https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E5JX7HU/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_3?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

@rhodes68, Thanks bro, you're a legend! I'll post my temp minutes and max later after the intake has been on for 24hrs. I'll try get some silica at the weekend would it be sold at hydro shops?

My #1 pheno at week 4 is very dense already. #2 stretched a full week longer but is showing signs of nice dense flowers with tight nodes. You are going to love that hlg. I’ve got 4 different units from them.

@Ashbash, I’d say so. In my 2x4 veg tent I have the 100 and I’m going to try and flower a rescue to see what I can get. I might add a couple reds to supplement.

@ThatoneAKguy, Looks like you've had more luck than me haha. Been waiting zto get a board for a while. I understand that the 150w will be enough to replace the 250w hps in a 2x2, would you say that's the case?

You are fighting so many of the same things as us. Taught me never to let a plant get tall in a tent again. Looks good, hope you find out the deal on flowering. Good luck hope Fast Buds makes things right for you otherwise.

@Ashbash, Yeah I am going to just stick with low stress training but I am going to be REAL attentive to it :)

@rhodes68, The height is a real problem lol. I thought it had done the flowering stretch, but it was just vegging out. But, at least it should mean a decent yield despite losing the main cola. Thanks for the input bro. Means a lot haha. Hopefully for the next one I'll have a 135w QB.

Hey there! Shame your temps are so high! Let us know what you end up doing with her=)

@Ashbash, sure! Why not, right?? We will follow along to see how it goes =)

@Fast_Buds, Thanks for the support fastbuds! Been thinking about it and I reckon at this point I'll just keep it going as something is better than nothing haha. At the very least I think it'll be a good learning experience, plus others can see the effects of excess heat. Then I'll grab a few more seeds and run again when I have a cooler light. Really disheartening to see them like this though :(

Wow! 10 weeks of flower. Did you finish? I have some stardawg going now too.

@ThatoneAKguy, Hey man, sorry for lack of detail in diary, it didn't end as smoothly as I would have liked. It did indeed finish, pic of bud posted. I think it grows naturally airy as others have been dense under the same light. Unfortunate about the heat, but I have a quantum board coming Monday for the new ones. 150w with much higher efficiency than the 250w HPS. It's not fastbuds best strain, I much prefer the zkittlez and lemon Ak, and it's definitely not like the stardawg I've got off the plug before, but it's a decent smoke none the less. Good luck bro

That 250 hps burnt the crap out of her. How tall is the tent? It should have been 24-28” above it. The nice thing with the hlg is you can get on top of them. I’d still keep it a full 16” minimum to distribute light evenly. Try to keep the tent temps under 90 and when using soil you should be watering 3 day a week. Like Monday, Wednesday, Friday, let the plant dry out until Monday again so it gets oxygen to the roots. Try this strain again and also make sure you have a fan moving air. It makes for bigger stalks, keeps pests down, lowers RH and compacts the flowers. Doesn’t need to be much.

@ThatoneAKguy, I really struggled for heat this round. Tent is 4ft high in total, not really room for more. I really underestimated the amount of stretch. Next time I'll stay on top of the LST. I'll try again soon, hopefully yours turns out well!

Your plant is eating himself. Feed him . The one on Flowering day 7. His grow rate is high. Now he is hungry ... Or in lockdown mate ;))

@AsNoriu, Ya man, I need some more bloom nutes, I think the Biobizz has gone off. Gonna grab some at the weekend, sure she'll love it!

don’t go too crazy with the LST on them. I use rubberized twist ties to pull the branches outward to get air and light to each cola. I did top them on their 3rd set of leaves too. They veg a little longer than most autos and that’s my opinion on what makes them monsters. I like the hangar cables on the hlg lights but what I did was knot the cable so I could get it as high as possible. I’ll take a photo and post it tomorrow.

Well look at it this way it seems to think its flowering, maybe hit it with some shock? PK or dark? I have been fighting heat-cold-low humidity and my freaking mistakes and yeah heat can kill quicker than anything though its not something that hides on ya at least. Im getting an air cooled hood next month before the serious heat starts here.

That's a shame bud, that you have an heat issue but at least you have the right mind set. It's a learning curve and something is better than nothing. G'luck I hope you pull through just fine.

Hi mate, I was using biobizz and had loads of issues. So I’ve started my next lot in palgron bat mix and touch wood no issues what so ever
