Germinated on 4/23/19 popped out of the ground on the 26th
I have started 3 Pineapple Express autos along with a few other autos for my second grow. #1 started out germinating the fastest and had a long ass tap root in 24 hours soak but still hasn’t made it out of the soil completely like #2 and #3.
5/1/19 Watered today. #1 looks either sickly or just behind a bit. Had another strain react to the soil being too hot maybe this is the case with her too.
5/18/19 Start of a new week.
5/20/19 #3 has been mainlined and is growing 3 fan leaves and it looks like 3 tops out of the ends of it, very interesting! #2 has been topped and we’re getting transplanted today, #1 has Had nothing done. New foliar spray caused the greasy leaves.
My plant seems to be a bit mutated, has anyone had one with three tops like mine looks like it has coming in? Usually it’s just the two leaves off the node but this one is in a triangle shape.
It's Fastbuds genetics my friend. They've defied the law that autoflowering strain will never be able to compete will photoperiod. I think there is enough evidence to prove the contraire on here such as your PE #3, monster!!!!
I think it's fine mate. Nature's nature you know.
I topped my sour orange and it was growing 4 lovely tops! And then the fan fell on it, broke a top off. And then it looked like it was growing 3 tops but actually kinda looks like she has 4 now. 😉
Sorry for the prolonged posting, new week started 5-25-19
#2 only had two branches tied down and is displaying a beautiful canopy.
#3 has the three tops which are growing nicely all except one, quite a unique mutation.
New week started on 6-15.
#1 is just now starting to flower, #2 is well into flowering and showing some nice hairy budsites, and #3 my pale pineapple is getting ginormous. I love it. I wasn’t feeding enough so she’s a bit lackluster but I upped the feedings and hopefully she will start to flower soon too! I can feel it coming.
Wish I could have posted more along the way! One never flowered and I didnt have the space to force flowering until July 5th! That's 2 days shy of 11 weeks of VEG for this auto. Shes a fucking unit. I placed her under a screen and got her about a foot shorter and filled my canopy immediately, I'm starting to think this 5gal pot isint enough anymore!
My focus is 100% on big bertha the other two are flowering nicely. Shes punched through the scrog and has stacked hella budsites. Shes getting a leaf strip on friday day 21 of flower.
This strain was pretty easy to grow, they took the longest, they also were the most staggered, I harvested two 3 weeks apart and one is still growing. Because it didnt flower.
Its on week 5 of flower as we speak.
The bud I have dried and cured smells incredible, it's a bit larfy just like all the other fast buds were, I will be staying away from their autos, the bud is good for some but I have much higher tier genetics I can run instead of fastbuds.
Hi @CraigGrowsOK! See why we call this technique "F*** I've Missed" :-) It seems your topping surgery turned into a FIMming operation. That's nothing to worry about, on the opposite, the more apical summits the more yield in the end! Happy growing 👊
@Stick, Oh it wasn’t a FIM. It was a top. There were just three branches that came from the top instead of the usual two, I know that sounds like a FIM but I assure you it wasn’t. She’s turning into a monster, hasn’t started flowering yet and she’s becoming quite the bush!
