Just_A_Grower_ Grows well, a nice bright green

Just_A_Grower_ I integrated Plagron's Power Roots to fill the pot to the max. It's growing well, a nice green color 🌿 It looks promising, now I have to manage the nutrients well. I'm thinking of switching to 20/4 light 🌞

Just_A_Grower_ Topping at the fourth node and removal of the first node. Aiming for 6 main branches. I've switched to a 20/4 cycle, the plant is in good shape and is developing well, especially in height. I've added CalMag because I've switched to osmosis water. Now I'm letting it grow without touching anything, at most a little low defoliation at the end of stretching.

Just_A_Grower_ Excellent health, it has recovered well from the topping, now it has six branches that are growing well, the green is strong, it will have a good nitrogen reserve for the stretching. It will definitely flower next week, and I will start to decrease the grow and increase the bloom. In the meantime, the VPD values are much more stable in the mini grow box. I don't plan to touch anything, I will remove some fan leaves at the end of the stretching.

Just_A_Grower_ The flowering has started, and it stretched 20cm during this stretching phase while maintaining a nice flat canopy. I had issues with pH or magnesium; it showed signs of chlorosis, but I think I avoided a significant nutrient lockout just in time. So, I switched back to tap water, which is much more manageable than osmotic water. I have a fixed TDS value of 300, EC 0.6, and pH 7.3, which is easy to handle. I want the essentials. I switched to flowering products, which I will then increase the doses of. Overall, it looks strong and healthy, and the flowering seems fast, very vigorous, and this gorilla is starting to eat more! 🤣

Just_A_Grower_ The growth seems to have stopped, about 75cm for the canopy, it has developed a lot. I decreased the grow and increased the bloom. The plant has gained much more vigor and a brighter color since I switched back to tap water. The flowers are developing well; I removed the lower leaves. I will continue like this until the 4th/5th week of flowering, then I will increase the bloom doses again.

Just_A_Grower_ It has developed very well, now it has stopped stretching and the flowers are getting bigger and bigger. I applied a low defoliation. Just 1/2 weeks left and I will start increasing the bloom doses and decreasing the grow. Even though the space is limited, the plant has taken up all the space in the small grow box. Great vigor.

Just_A_Grower_ It's developing very quickly, I've noticed a slight nutrient excess. I've only given tap water for one cycle. I'm still waiting for the flowers to form well so I can defoliate the plant and make space for the lower flowers. It's looking very promising!

Just_A_Grower_ I cleaned up the canopy a bit from the fan leaves to let the light through better. I've still been low on nutrients, starting next week and for the next two weeks I'll increase the flowering doses until the flush in the last two. The red of the buds is becoming more pronounced and they're developing very quickly.

Just_A_Grower_ Still three weeks before the harvest, the buds are developing well, just one more week of nutrients and then I'll start the flush. The leaves are already yellowing, seeing the burnt tips I can't figure out what excess the plant has, but the flowers seem to be developing very quickly, even the lower ones.

Just_A_Grower_ We're almost at the end, I thought about leaving it for another two weeks but it really seems to have reached the finish line. So I've started the flush, the buds are really compact and hard, the pistils are now brown and there are plenty of trichomes. I've lowered the intensity of the lights. Just a few more days of ripening and then I'll harvest. Very satisfied with the result 😊

Just_A_Grower_ I'm happy with the harvest, I expected more compact buds but 350g is a great result for an autoflowering. I'm expecting 60g to 80g of dry buds.
