Auto SFV OG - Dutch Passion

GhostByte They both popped the soil 2 days ago. Lost one seed, taproot was stuck to the paper towel and snapped off completely. I popped another seed (different strain) directly in the soil and she is popping the soil right now.

GhostByte Girls are looking good. I watered a little too eager shown by the green algae on the top soil. I will let them dry out completely before watering again. Theyre growing fast and healthy and seem to be happy for now. Will start adding nutrients after this week.

GhostByte Bend them over on day 14. They are growing at a good pace. Trying to create a bush structure so light is evenly spread over the canopy. Introducing a small amount of nutrients this week and we will see how they react. 30/4 Lowering the humidity to 65% 1/5 Upped the humidty to 70%, had some high temperatures in my house due to hot weather outside. Temps reached 29c in my tent. 3/5 Reduced the humidity to 60%, the hot weather is over.

GhostByte The last week of veg has started, i want to get as much vertical growth as possible this week before they start to flower. They are smelling a little. The smell reminds me of basil. A few leaves have been cut off that were blocking light to lower nodes. Lowered the humidity to 60% Lowered the humidity to 55% She started throwing pistils at day 26

GhostByte Been training her last week to create a flat canopy with multiple colas. She started throwing out pistils a couple days ago. Switching to bloom nutrients already while feeding a higher dose of sugar royal which has an npk of 9-0-0. Cutting off only leaves blockin light to lower nodes and will let her do her thing during the stretch period. Been upping the light a little as the middle ome was getting a little too much. 13/5 upped the humidty to 60% because of higher temps. 17/5 theyre growing nice and wide and are starting to take off vertically. We'll see how big they get!

GhostByte Nothing done to her this week. Will let them do their thing as she stretches. No budlets have formed yet just pistils and bud sites sprouting at the nodes. Might try to spread out some branches this week as theyre getting really bushy.

GhostByte Did some defoliation and lst this week. Spread out the branches a little better because they were too close together. I lollipopped them a couple days ago. Theyre growing very wide, bushy and fast. Budlets will form any day now. Giving her one last shot of sugar royal. Only one of them isnt getting it because she looked quite packed with nitrogen. Dont want the same like my last grow to happen this time. :)

GhostByte Gave them one last defoliation round. They still seem to be stretching a little. The first budlets are starting to pop up through out the plants. They also start to give off smell which is quite intense for the stage she is in. She almost instantly regrows leaves as I defoliate her.

GhostByte The buds are growing quite slowly due to too much nitrogen. I really gotta ease on the sugar royal :| Ive been flushing them both and feeding just green sensation with silica this week to still feed P - K and no nitrogen at all. Terra bloom has a small amount of N which I dont want rn. Excess N locks out phosphorus and calcium (seen by the little brown spots on a fee leaves) So i want to keep flushing for now until she looks better. They also start to smell pretty dank as trichomes are starting to form I got myself a tds meter so ill be filling in the tds aswel to keep track of it and maybe not feed my plants excess N next time ;). They seem to clear up a little I just tested the runoff after a flush and 900 ppm came out, good range to hold now and replace the N with P n K.

GhostByte Its been really hot outdoors here passing 30 celsius and its not going to stop by the looks of it for the next coming weeks. Ive been venting the air outdoors but my lungroom is a unconditioned attic. So it gets pretty hot there. One dat my temps reached 32c which is way to high but they pushed through. I reduced the schedule to 18/6 because of 2 more hours of cooling down. I have an ac unit on the way to deal with the temps a little bit. Humidity is also a struggle right now even with a dehumidifier. Ranging between 50-60% which is fine for now Been reducing the feeds a little because one of them is still a little high on the N. Buds are growing nicely right now and getting pretty frosty. They smell really nice, this is known to be a stinker. But i have been venting to outdoors through a carbon filter and dont smell a thing around or in the house. Not even in the lungroom. Only when i open the tent the smell comes out a little. Lets pray the ac unit will save the day, or my girls are going bien cuit over the next weeks. :/
