TokenHippie I germinated directly into Mothers Earth soil. I
had one seed that grew two plants which is a first for me. Plants are healthy and all five have sprouted from Fast Buds. PH water to 6.5 and I am watering every two days. Humidity has been consistent at 70% and temperatures steady between 75 degrees Fahrenheit to 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, I added one quarter strength of Advance Nutrients PH Perfect Micro, Grow, and Bloom. At the end week 2 I will be transitioning to Cronk Nutrients Bonnie and Clyde, CalMag, and The Sticky Bandit Terp Builder since they are the only nutrients geared specifically for autoflower plants!!

TokenHippie I gave them half strength of nutrients for the second week of growth. Plants are responding well to the nutrients and the transplanting that I did 4 days ago.

TokenHippie This is the end of week 3. Somehow it won’t let me edit to add more pictures in week 2. Plants are thriving and growing. Tons of nodes are popping up on the plant and you can already smell a faint smell of gas in the leaves if you barely rub them and then smell your fingers. Any suggestions on what I should be doing at this point in my grow since this is my first every grow?!?!?!?!?!
TokenHippie I am in week 4 of veg and I have my Spider Farmer lights at 18 inches annd on a schedule of 20 on and 4 off. Im also running at 90%. My ppfd is 763 which is supposed to be in range for pre-flowering. My DLI is slightly high but my plants aren’t stressing nor burning from the lights. I introduced some far red lights at 13 inches from canopy. So far my plants are thriving and I highly recommend bud clips and gardening pins for lst. My branches run parallel to the soil and then bend 90 degrees for maximal lighting on all bud sites. Slight odor permitting from the tent which is very exciting!!

TokenHippie Plants are looking great and terps are starting to build slightly on the leaves of the bud sites. Taking water every 2 days now instead of 3 days. Feeding nutrients every other watering and introduced a trellis for support and to help train these buds even more. The smell is gradually building and I couldn’t be happier.
TokenHippie Week 6 going strong and the buds are starting to stack up nicely. Plants take a gallon of water for every plant every two days. Throwing nutrients full strength which the plant is loving. Still doing lst and defoliatio. Onward to week 7

TokenHippie On Day 50/Week 7, the stretching has slowed down, and now the bud sites are really starting to swell up. I moved two plants outdoors to finish so all the plants get a fair shake at equal light distribution. I'm guessing this will be an 11-12 week run until harvest time. I've lowered my pH to anywhere around 5.9-6.4 growing in Promix HP soil and using 5 gallon grow pots.
Good luck and enjoy! That strain is stunning, gorgeous, tasty. strong, makes top shelf rosin, with excellent yield. They respond well to topping, then LST and some defoliation!
@GTools, I was thinking about topping but since it is my first grow I'm just going to use the bud clips in order to get a feel for the growing process. I did transplant on Saturday and the plants have shot off like a rocket ever since. Is it normal for them to grow kind of slow at first then to take off? I'm at the start of week 3 of vegetation and need to update my diary here.
