Indiemay23 Good day, Here is my first documented grow, I hope you have fun with it! I'm open to any criticism and inspiration. Day 1 . Both girls look very healthy so far, germination took about 48 hours without soaking. I placed the seeds in Jiffy Coco pads and planted them directly into 12.5L AirPots. The substrate is mixed with 10g/10L Automaticflow Hybrid complete fertilizer, which is specifically designed for autoflower and only requires water with the desired pH value. The lamp is set to the lowest level of the dimmer, only in vegetation mode, and is 75cm away. Temp - 24-26 degrees Humidity - 70-80% Water - 6.0 Light 16/8 6500k about 30w Update Day 6: Both are doing well so far, one is a bit paler but is already gaining more color with the second set of leaves. I activated the substrate 2 days before planting the seedlings, so it was completely soaked. The pots have become light now. I mist the little ones 6 times daily with pH neutral water. Tomorrow, I will give 0.5L of water to both pots, watering in a circle about 5 cm away from the stem.

Indiemay23 Hi, The girls are slowly starting their growth phase, they both look healthy and are standing stable, one is a bit lighter and has also formed an oddly shaped leaf pair. They are being sprayed 6 times a day, otherwise very little water to the substrate at the moment. The lamp is now set to 40% of the veg mode and is 60cm away. Update Day 12: They are now growing and starting to produce leaf pairs, both are very healthy. The light has been increased by another 5%, and I'm still being cautious with water in the substrate.

Indiemay23 Day 15 The girls are entering the growth phase 0.5l of water with a pH value of 6.0 Light at a distance of 45cm with 60% veg mode Automaticflow as substrate fertilizer is making a good impression so far. Day 18 Now they are entering the stretch and growth period, my favorite time! Since I'm using this fertilizer (Automaticflow Hybrid Substrate) for the first time, I'm curious to see how it will perform. Light is now at max (65w veg mode) with a distance of 60cm Water every 3 days 0.5l, pH 6.0

Indiemay23 Now the ladies are 3 weeks old and as you can clearly see, they haven't had to endure any suffering. Both are doing great and have reacted super well to the light adjustment. The fertilizer (Automaticflow Hybrid Substrate) will have to show what it can do in the coming weeks; the two are ready! Water 6.0 pH clear, 0.5L every 3-4 days, spray 3-6 times daily Light 65W veg mode 60cm height Update Day 27 The ladies are now 35cm and 37cm tall; I've decided not to train or defoliate them. They should come through completely without any stress, as I've used different techniques in other auto grows and I want to see the difference. The lamp is now running on full spectrum with 115W. I've given them a little dry spell and today watered with 0.75L of clear water at pH 6.0. So far, I'm very happy!

Indiemay23 Both have shown a strong stretch in the last week. You can tell they're getting thirstier; I'm going to install a drip system in the next few days. Everything else is great!! Update Day 32. The ladies are now in the pre-flowering stage! Today I made some adjustments; I swapped the quantum board for a Growking Rail 160. In the past, I've had very good experiences with the Growking during flowering. I also installed my DIY automatic drip system, which is set with a timer for 2x 15 minutes daily. The ladies are now 56cm tall, and their tops are drooping a bit; I probably used a bit too much fertilizer in the substrate. Water pH 6.0 55% humidity Temperature 24/22

Indiemay23 They are now visibly in the flowering stage of the Automaticflow substrate fertilizer, which is okay so far, but I wish for a bit thicker stems; let's see how it performs in the bloom. I had to remove the drip irrigation because the tent is too small for me at 1.80m height, and the ladies are already almost 110m with pots. Have fun following along! Update Day 41 I have now hung both Growking 160s, but as you can see, I installed both at the top corners of the tent; the distance is about 65cm. I have the lights running at 50% power via the potentiometer. The girls have really embraced the light and the better illumination, and they now need about 1.4l of water per day.

Indiemay23 The final phase has begun, the tent is all set up, I've now installed the Quantum Board, all lights are running at 50% QB flowering only, which totals 215w. The ladies seem to really like it! Update: Quantum Board was too much for now!

Indiemay23 Update week 9 or so! Unfortunately, I've had to realize in the last few weeks that the Automaticflow substrate fertilizer doesn't live up to its promises! One lady has developed an advanced iron deficiency that I unfortunately recognized too late, which means she's not absorbing any sulfur anymore. Last week, I added bloom fertilizer, and now it's just pH-neutral water. Since this grow is more about experimenting, I'm giving it everything with the lighting; of course, I'm checking regularly. Let's see how they develop further.
