Royal Critical Auto DWC My fav

GreenEldritchGardens Roots finally touched water, at least from my experience this is the moment the plant stuns a bit before exploding in grow week after

GreenEldritchGardens After being stunned for some days, now she developed long and healthy roots, coming explosion in growth in next weeks From this week I stopped the upper irrigation (its damn laud), and added more oxygen to the water by the a diffusor

GreenEldritchGardens I've grown this already 2x, but this is the first time growing in DWC. As far I remember it is the same size as my older grows, she seems healthy and putting a lot of energy in the roots. Next week probably she will start blooming and then we shall see her real size!

GreenEldritchGardens This week Bloom should start, pre flowers seems to be appearing and today was cleaning day. So I decided to switch nutrients to Bloom. Small defoliation on bottom to prepare for lollipop and leaftucking. I'll leave a big defoliation for 2 week Bloom. Those auto critical does not seem that beautiful for me in veg in all my grows, this not different. But blooming is another story with her big sense buds and amazing effects.

GreenEldritchGardens Maybe she needed some defoliation on top but my focus was to clean the bottom half, she is is growing naturally into this bush shape so I will just leave her be. First first week stretch she drank a 10l+ of water plus good nutrients consumption, during my soil grows from this strain I almost always had some yellowing, so she seems to consume a lot in stretching phase!

GreenEldritchGardens Some top defoliation as needed because of high humidity. She is growing very wide now she has a bit more space, very bushy as previous grows on soil. Also she drank a lot this week, had to fill the pot almost twice. Another interesting thing from my soil grows with this strain was that she had some yellowing in the second week of flower, now on DWC no signs of deficiency at all. Going well let's get fat next week

GreenEldritchGardens Some defoliation on top but even so she is quite bushy, starting now to show trichomes and smell like candy/bubble gum like. Hope this pheno goes more to candy side. Roots big and well and bud formations a bit slow but not under the schedule. What's weird is that her main cola turned into 3. Without any toppings

GreenEldritchGardens Buds are fattening and sweet smell intensifies! This strain in really recommended if you search for sweet + classical taste + big buds on a Auto + amazing effects even with low THC. Starting to move now to PK, next week then stop Bloom nutrients and add Fade and PK to finish her up. 2 weeks is more or less my goal for harvest.

GreenEldritchGardens Moving now to only PK and Fade. She is looking good, smelling like Tutti frutti/Candy. I had to defoliated her more and remove some Branches/Bud and put it to dry because she was too full. I've should have done this before to promote airflow and light penetration.

GreenEldritchGardens My second hydro grow and it seems I failed a bit here: 1. Too little defoliation and airflow 2. More light to mid and lower branches. Low light and low airflow made the buds stretch a lot and be airy, not taking much light made them white and mostly tasteless (cardboard taste). Upper branches brings the sweet taste of this strain up but effects were quite low. Even thou the high is enjoyable and taste from upper buds are tolerable. Lower and mid buds gone to trash unfortunately. I'll stop for this Summer with Hydro, but will try my 3th time in winter
