4/16/19 Start of a new week.
4/17/19 Watered and plucked a few leaves off that were covering prime bud sites. Keeping the defoliation light since I have room in the closet and the lights penetrate fairly well.
4/20/19 Noticed the slightest Cal deficiency, upped the cal mag a touch.
Wow looks awesome🔥 , how much water do you exactly use for your flush and how long before you cut do you do it ? I am trying to collect as much info before I attempt my first crop .
@Ktims420, I’m giving them 2 weeks for flushing using only clean PHed water, you just water normally only eliminating any nutrients so the plant can feed off its self and use up what is stored before you chop it down.
Looks great! Mind if I ask a couple questions? What light (s) are you using? And I see you are on a 12/12, when did you flip over and what benefit did you see? I’ve got a Moby Dick xxl that never did get very tall and I’d like to get to the bottom of that. Did you do any defoliation?
@ThatoneAKguy, she’s under a Kind 600 LED, A 300 true watt, I switched to 12/12 because I have a couple photoperiods in my flower tent and I needed the Autos out of my closet to use it for Veg. She’s still growing noticeably every day probably a little slower but that’s fine. Honestly with all of my plants I do the least possible, the least amount of moving, the least amount of stress and the least amount of fertilizer, not necessarily the least even but hopefully you get the point.
I did top her which made her shorter and let me spread it open, I also did some selective deleafing, I wouldn’t say defoliation because it would be like 3 or 4 leaves that we’re getting giant that we’re blocking too much light.
Now that's some beautiful looking flowers produced from our White widow XXL auto 👌
Amazing work so far and by the look of things your entering the final weeks now👍. Another 14 day's maybe 21 at maximum left then it will be harvest time for these stunning looking flowers 👊
Please keep the updates coming as harvest approaches and thank you for doing great work with our genetics on the grow diary platform 👍
All the best ✌️

Perfect timing if you asl me! @DinafemSeeds,
All the hairs have curled back, trichomes look right where I want them, I am extremely happy with that wet weight and I am hoping for right around 150g! Tha ms for the support guys, I'll be sure to.come back with a smoke report when shes dry in another week or so.
@CraigGrowsOK, It look like you were spot on with your harvest date my friend and some amazing looking flowers produced 👌
With a wet weight over over 700g your end yield is typically around 20-25% so I'm going to take a guess and say 140-150g once fully dry and cured 👍
I would call that a very successful harvest of some Fire🔥 looking flowers👌
Congratulations on the harvest mate and thank you for the great diary 👍
Please drop back in with your thoughts on our White widow XXL auto when you try here. We would love your thoughts and opinions 👊
All the best ✌️

@DinafemSeeds, Getting bigger every day! I am very pleased so far with her, I was thinking another two weeks or so just based off other journals but I guess we will see when she ends up being ready!
I just have one question, i havent grown Autos since Diesel Ryder/Low Ryder days. Why do you top that the auto WW? I have some memorys back in my mind that topping autos will result in less yield? but maybe autos have gone a long way since low ryder i grew 😝😂
@FavoriteCookie, well this one is an XXL so it’s supposed to be a bigger plant and it has a longer life cycle so you have more room to top successfully, I topped as soon as I could pinch the third node off which was around 14 days. So far it’s never been to early and they recover almost immediately.
Yields depend on a lot of things but I didn’t want one main cola and LST is easier when it’s topped.
