No nutes yet, just few ppm of calc-mag and great white shark microbes. She will be moved into 200 MH soon.
=======
Day 19
I had to spray with some neem oil!! saw some walkers around, some of the lower leaf didnt enjoy it but they will recover :(
======
Day 21 she is at 8 inches now, not pistils yet, still recovering from the neem oil spray
Starting week 4 no pistils yet.
Day 26
====================
No pistils yet!!! vertical grow keeps going on
Day 28
=====================
She keeps growing, not pre-flowers yet, new home looks cool
Starting week 5 she keeps veggin haha which is nice, the first preflowers are visible, side branches are coming nicely.
=====
Day 31
She keeps the vertical growth and no sign of flowering yet, just some pre-flowers , she is going to be huge when flowering kicks in.
Day 33
=====
She is huge, no sign of flowering yet, impressive size for an small pot.
Day 35
===
No sign of flowering yet, maybe she will start flowering in the next coming week. only few pistils, main branch is growing like weird.
Starting week 6
=======
Day 36
I think she is preparing for flowering, she is huge standing 23 inches, with nice side branches, i just hope she starts to flower now i still have 8 more weeks after flowering starts.
=====
Day 38
Looks like vertical growth has stopped now, i can see more pistils, hope she is switching to flowering. She is big.
Day 41
======
She is on transition to flower which is good, she took longer to veg, however i can see a lot of tops from the side branches, she needs water almost every 2 days.
From now she will need 8 more weeks to flower.
Day 42
==============
She is finally started to flower!! she is big for a 3gal smart pot, not to much to share, first time i see an auto with this structure.
Day 45
==============
What can i say, she is my favorite lots of tops.
Day 50
She is just huge hahah, i keep battling some agressive calc-mag def :(, she likes to sleep for some hours and then wake up in the middle of the day, weird.
Day 52
She looks like happy after the feeding, i had to increas the ppm to 600-700ppm, because she is getting huge, she drinks a lot so she is using the nutes, next watering will be clac-mag and bud candy as she is wide open now.
Sorry guys i didnt update my diary in about a month or more.
She is huge, i had a lot of issues i mean alot!!, calg-mag def and some other issues, she outgrowth my small tent lol. I never had an auto this size for a 3 gallon pot.
Day 91
==================
The PPM run-off was at 380ppm after watering with ph 6.2 tap water at 280 ppm!! I think she was about starting to eat herself. So i feed her again with over 900ppm to recover not sure if this will work.
The smell is low,she is hairy and buds are gaining weight , trichome production is not that good i think because of the stress she had.
She probably still have a month to go!! This is a 80% Sativa and probably 10% ruderalis im my opinion.
Any suggestions guys??
Day 97
Starting Week 15
=========================
She is finishing!!! Top colas are starting to gain some weight, the smell to sweet/diesel is starting to come out, i think im only going to water with bud candy and overdrive from now on. I have reduced the light hours from 20/4 to 18/16 and now to 12/12 to promote trichome production and accelerate the swelling of the buds as she is sativa dominant she needs more dark hours.
Harvest will be about 2 or 3 weeks i think.
After flushing the plant started to eat all of the remaining nutrients which its was pretty good.
ITS HARVEST TIME!!! i will be updating this as the harvest continues over the next week.
I have harvested the top cola from my plant on day 104 from seed! the wet weight for the top cola was 152gr wet it will be like 30gr when is completely dry which is impressive, in my experience with autos i never see something like this.There is still a lot of colas to harvest!!
Day 104
==============================
I chopped the top cola , the rest of the plant can still wait for another week
Cant comment on the smoke yet!!
Diesel Automatic its a good strain and not newbie friendly.
@BoneCrusher, These plants are getting so thirsty and hungry its scary. Mine Auto Diesel drunk half liters over night.... Calmag pro, hesi phosphorus, plagron green sen
@ClubRiot,My comment is gone lol, but yeah light mix let the grower decide the feeding schedule, but FFO is hella hot, one friend of mine ran a 12week auto with no nutes except some calc-mag in veg and mag-sulfur during flower, he pulled like 3 oz dry.
@BoneCrusher, I always do this, lol. I forget something is an auto. lol
My bad, ignore my statement. Topping will only stunt it so keep her as is :D
Trying stress training her sideways completely when flowering and try training all the branches to be tops. That is something you can do to trick the auto into giving you a giant canopy or tops ;)
@BoneCrusher,no problem you will know for next time , autos need to go in final pots , no transplanting , not many people have the problem the plants get too big , you must be doing something right 👍
@BigDaddyK, yes sir, she is getting feed today, she is just big for a 3gal pot 😁, she drinks like a single mom on friday, the roots are coming out the smart pot. My mistake was to increase the watts and not the nutes.
@Green_inda_scene, thanks! she is a monster and she took more veg weeks for some reason. Autos start to flower around week 3 or 4 she started to flower on week 7.
@BoneCrusher,I’m glad to hear that I’m waiting for that to happen very frosty strain don’t you think mate and the smell is 10/10 I’m definitely going to do this strain again I fell in love with her
@@Tryhard,Yeah she is impressive for an Auto, i think we probably have a different pheno. My plant started like a indica and then streeched like a sativa.If i were you, i will probably try to get more watts on her. She looks froosty but she is no creating the big colas like she is supossed to do and looks like she is expecting more light. I normally veg with X watts and then when flowering kicks in i put 2X watts on the plant.
Another factor that promotes flower developments is more dark hours. I started on 20/4 then to 18/6 and this last week at 12/12. I think the plant likes the dark hours as roots transfer all of the energy to the roots, bigger roots = more fruits. Longer nigths means winter is coming, so she needs more flowers to protect its seeds, this translate into more bud and weigth.
@bonecrusher do u come on much still, was still wondering if u had a light height ideas on a ufo roung light 150?,i do have a 50 aswell and going to use as a side light??
@SKYWALKER1980,You should put your lights as far as you can, this strain will grow big, i think i used 95w T5 during the first 2 weeks, then 200 watts MH for 1 week, once flowering kicked in i switched to 300 watts HPS + 200 watts LED. That is why she was too big. Smaller plants needs less light. As rule of thumb you will X watts during veg and 2X watts during flower. If not the yield is small plus CO2 during flowering also helps.
@bonecrusher>im too growin this als,any tips on growing this?.love this!!👍👌
if mine looks anything like this then im gonna be over the moon,dont get me wrong i like the look of mine but my good its a slow one,but time will tell?
