Excited about this strain as ive only grown autos before and this is a fast photo variety. It fits into my shedule perfectly if i can do 7 weeks of veg and then 7 weeks of flower so will see. Ive got 3 under a Migro 100.
Only grown autos before which i know are light feeders and i only started them off with plain water then root booster until a week or so old and was wondering should i do the same with these photoperiods or should they be fed more even at seedling stage?
Always start low and build up until you see a little nute burn then back off a bit. If you have an EC meter then that will be pretty helpful to gauge how much you are actually feeding em and make sure it is accurate. I just ran a batch of autos and I actually fed them full strength mega crop and they loved it. One of even wanted more potassium. So I'm not sure all autos are light feeders, but maybe mega crop is just less likely to burn in general? Either way, I would start feeding them right away. In coco, I feed a low dose of mega crop and calmag around day 3-4. I usually shoot for a combined EC of 0,5 or 250ppm. Also, just an FYI most photoperiods won't finish flowering in 7 weeks. Very few even finish at the 8-week mark. You are more realistically looking at 9-10 weeks of flowering. If thats gonna mess up your schedule Id shave the time off veg as long as the plants wouldn't be too small.
Just started feeding canna a&b along with the rhizotonic. Slow growing so far but i am uses to autos. Really looking forward to growing these might learn something new. These are photo hybrids so they only take 7 weeks to flower.
Just boosting the ec a little, these seem to be dojng well its my first photoperiod run so going to try and learn as much as possible and even maybe translate that into better growing for my auto-flowers.
Upped rhizo and added silica, going to uo A&B on the next watering too and really get them growing. Looking good for the time being thinking of trying my hand at manifolding/mainlining them 😆
Took a lot of courage on my part to chop my beautiful plants up. This is my first photoperiod run and my first time doing any high stress training, all ive done with autos is LST so it took a lot for me to chop these girls in half 😆 going to be trying my hand at mainlining, think ive put an extra two weeks onto the veg time by doing it but hipefully its worth it 👌
These are growing really well and seem like the perfect strain for my first photoperiod. Theyve taken to topping nicely and are growing a nice shape. This is my first ever go at mainlining/manifolding so fingers crossed 🤞
keep adding an extra 0.5ml of a&b with every 5 litres of feed. These have grown so well im itching to flip that switch 😆
1ml per litre of silica and 2ml per litre of rhizo
The strain throughout the veg is amazing, it bounces back so well ive been doing some extreme bending and de-leafing and theyve done so well theyre really shaping up. Just dropped the rhizo down as theyve got a really good root system now going to veg a few more days then flip that switch 😆 really looking forward to these 2 of them are going to have 8 colas and then the 3rd im experimenting on having 12 colas.
Flipped these they looked like they was ready but i had to go away for 4 days and when i got back god they got bushy!! So many side shoots etc so ive had to trim them again take a lot of side shoots out but hopefully they didnt waste too much energy on them, going to leave them a day or two before i trim again didnt want to do it all in one go so they are looking a bit shabby at the min but they will get back on track. Got to say this strain has been really good to grow so far and its had a really good recovery and growth rate also up to now ive had no nutrient issues all the leaves have been perfectly green which is a first for me 😂,
This grow is going really well apart from the fact that they are outgrowing the tent 😂 humidity has been a bit high due to so much vegetation in the small tent so just been combating that. These have been my healthiest plants ive ever grown all the leaves have been perfect no sign of any deficiency or stress. Great plants to grow so far so easy and done well in their first week of stretch.
Everything's going well, just got to reduce RH a bit but going to wait another week before removing all fan leaves to help with that and to get light to all bud sites.
Gave these another trim got rid of all the fan leaves to get light to all bud sites and to maximise my small grow space. Humidity i cant seem to get down u fortunately but ive got lots of air movement inside the tent. Just started with the Pk so lets see how much size they can stack on, starting to get frosty and smell 😆
Gradually adding more PK, they are starting to pack some weight on but think the big difference will be the next week or two. These are getting strong smelling and the smaller of the 3 is getting really frosty. Going to try my hand at making some canna coconut oil with the trim from these 😆
Packing on the weight now the tallest of the 3 has got some nice colas on but the smaller two are a lot more frosty. Really looking forward to the chop theyre smelling like citrusy lemon. Struggled with high humidity all through flower so they must of had reduced growth from it but even so i think im in for a good run 😆
Really enjoyed growing these they responded well to all the high stress training i gave them, the leaves where always perfectly green they never had any deficiencies or problems at all. So easy to grow. They have a great lemon scent to them. However my yield was the lowest ive ever had i got around 1oz from each plant which is far below any plant yield ive had before, the buds are also the airiest and lightest ones so far. I dont know if it was down to the environment or if its the fact these only take 7 weeks in flower so you loose about 3 weeks off the bud building. I used the trim and some bud to some canna oil with these and turned them into gummies. The rest got smoked. There was one plant that was extra frosty which produced most of my good trim 😆
Wow, you are a true artist with your plants! I'm going to use this grow as a primer on how to mainline my next run. I just wanted to verify - you are getting this kind of growth with a 100-watt Migro light? Might have to consider switching over if true. Keep up the beautiful work!
@G_mang_0,sorry for the late reply. Thank you so much for your kind words! I am also just learning and improving with every grow, this was my first attempt at the mainline. Yes hard to believe but the migro 100 i have used from seed to flower and different levels of dimming. We will see what weight i get from this migro 100 but whatever it is i can already tell its very efficient watt to bud ratio 😆😂
Looking cood, buds are building nicely!
In my humble opinion and with no harvests yet, I would defoilate now. I say this as I did twice, once a week before flower and the second time between two and three weeks after the flip. For what it is worth, it seemed to work with my plants. Food for thought.
Happy growing!!
@BarrieGrower,thanks for stopping by! I was putting off defoliation due to being worried as ive only grown autos before and they say never to really do that with them so with the photos its a lot different and seems alien to be stripping their leaves haha but i have seen it done before but thanks for the advice and from that i have now stripped them and they are looking a lot better for it 👌 most the light is going to the bud sites now which is great!! Cant wait for them to start smelling 😆
The topping looks to have gone well my friend 👌
Quick Critical will perform very well using the "mainlining" tech. This is going to be a very cool and interesting grow 👍
All the best ✌️
Mark..
@DinafemSeeds,thank you so much for your kind words!! I cant believe how much they do bounce back. I did one last heavy de leafing and as a friend said they looked “dead” even though i knew they were fine but anyway the next day they looked so healthy again and now theyre thriving again. Going to flip ina few days due to a holiday ive had to work around but im really happy with them these are my favorite plants ive grown to date. Im just really excited about what theyre going to produce for me
@BuddingBudda, They are responding very well to the topping and training. You do have a talent for plant training and manipulation 👍
Beautiful work which is definitely going to pay off in the flower phase 👌
How much longer do you plan on vegging for my friend? Another week maybe 2 then start the flower show?
Please keep the diary update coming. We really like what we see so far and want to watch this grow progress 👍
All the best ✌️
Mark..
@DinafemSeeds, thanks man! These have responded so well to topping theyre growing really fast cant wait to upload the photos of how theyre doing now. So far so good 👌
Oh yes, Quick Critical is well into bloom now and packing on some serious weight 👌
Your at week 5 now and QC is finished in 7 week's so I would feed for another 5 maybe 7 day's then get the flush started in preparation for harvest 👍
You look in great shape mate 👊
All the best ✌️
