Autoflower & Autopot

Whodeletti All 3 seeds from 420 Fastbuds have germinated and are showing on day 4 after planting. The "humidity domes" will stay on the seedlings for another 2 days. Since the soil is still moist around the sprout, no watering will be done. Light set to 225 PPFD, 45 cm distance.

Whodeletti Day 14 Switching to Autopot system (20 L, 25 ml Plagron Grow, 12 ml Plagron Roots, 20 ml CalMag) EC 350 PPM Day 13 I watered twice with 1 L each time. 1 ml/l Roots + 1 ml/l CalMag. Day 12 First LST The Banana is developing the best so far, maybe due to the drip water from the air humidification hose.

Whodeletti Day 20 Further LST, first leaves removed. Autopot emptied and refilled with 20 L. (Terra Grow 1ml/l, Power Roots 0.5ml/l, CalMag 0.3 l/l) Day 16 Tops of the plants further tied down with wire (LST). Pots rotated because the leaves couldn't handle the warm air from the fan. The autopot system is working well, the tank is already half empty. The Banana Purple Punch has developed the best so far.

Whodeletti Day 23, I did a bit of re-training (LST) and secured the plant tops to the outside of the pot. Day 24, lightly defoliated. Day 28, defoliated and LST, took out 3 liters from the tank and filled in fresh 20 liters (15 ml Calmag, 20 ml Grow, 20 ml Bloom).

Whodeletti Day 31 Further LST and removing sun leaves that were overshadowed

Whodeletti On day 40, I dismantled the Autopot system because the water kept flipping over and the pH level rose to as high as 8.2. The Gorilla Z is showing light leaf tips, likely due to the incorrect pH level. On day 41, I lollipopped and defoliated the Banana Purple Bunch and Gorilla Z. The Papaya Cookie is lagging a bit, and I had to put a box underneath to maintain the same distance from the lamp.

Whodeletti Tag 42 Some defoliation, and the Papaya Cookies is slowly showing signs of flowering. Fertilizer Terra Grow 1.0 ml/l, Terra Bloom 5.0 ml/l, Green Sensation 1.0 ml/l

Whodeletti Tag 54 The lamp on the left has been hung lower because the Gorilla Z on the right has shot up too high. Today, I watered the Gorilla Z for the first time again after flushing, using half the recommended fertilizer. Resume from Day 43 - 52… Banana Purple Punch: Good growth and flower development. The plant is 55 cm tall, receives 2 liters of water every 2 days, and shows no signs of deficiency. The plant was further defoliated to expose all the buds to light. Papaya Cookie: Rather stunted and compact in growth, the flowers are just starting to form abundantly. The plant is 25 cm small, gets 1 liter of water every 2-3 days (just doesn’t drink more). Defoliation and raising the plant to match the same distance from the lamp as the other plants. Stunted growth might also be due to the autopot system?! Gorilla Z: Overall good growth with strong stretch, but the flower development is rather puny buds, with very small distances between the many growing buds. The plant is 70 cm tall. The Gorilla showed strong, persistent pH lockout signs. Therefore, it was flushed on Day 49 with 30 liters of water (pH 6.2). I suspect that due to the previous autopot system, the strong pH increases, and the fact that the plant was the last in the hose line (thus receiving fresh water last), such pronounced symptoms appeared. I’m now waiting for the substrate to dry out and will then water the Papaya Cookie with half the recommended amount of fertilizer.

Whodeletti Day 57 and the plants are doing really well. The Gorilla Z seems to have recovered. The pots are noticeably light after 2 days, so I can water again. The Banana Purple Punch & Gorilla Z are getting 2.0 L and the Papaya Cookie is getting 1.5 L.

Whodeletti All 2 out of 3 plants are now getting different watering. Banana Purple Punch = 0.0 ml Terra Grow; 4.0 ml/l Terra Bloom; Green Sensation 1.0 ml/l; 0.7 ml/l CalMag Papaya Cookie and Gorilla Z = 0.5 ml/l Terra Grow; 5.0 ml/l Terra Bloom; Green Sensation 1.0 ml/l; 0.7 ml/l CalMag Banana Purple has 1 week left, trichomes = a little amber-colored The other two need about 2-3 more weeks.

Whodeletti Harvest on day 66 because there were enough amber-colored trichomes. After 5 days, the buds were dried and went into Terplock bags. 80.6 g dry weight

Whodeletti Harvest on day 75. Wet cut. Dry weight 56.7 g
