Day 35-36. Watered with just under .5 gallon of water this week and noticed she started drooping really bad (didnt get a picture). Tested water with PPM meter and my tap water is around 36 ppm. Did a flush and added .5 tsp cal-mag to tap water. Next day she was back up to normal and has stayed that way all week. Now that I know my tap water has a low PPM I will be adding a small amount of cal-mag to every watering.
Day 39. I'm assuming by the stretch (or lack of) this is going to stay a small bushy plant. Looking around I see it's common for the amnesia autos. Won't be scrog but the net has help spread out what is there. Did a large amount of defoliation exposed bud sites and cut big fan leaves not getting any light.
Day 40. Watered with ΒΌ teaspoon Cal-mag in half gallon of water. Ph 6.75, ppm 270
She's gorgeous! I hope my buds will look like yours in a week or so. I just started trying lst and hope I'll be able to keep my plants low like that for next time.
@Alpaca, LST is the safest route but you still always gotta be careful. I usually go a little at a time and make it a daily process. If you start early when she is about 3-5 nodes, that is best because she is still pretty bendy.
@Alpaca, thanks she is pretty stubby but I topped her which stunted her a bit more. I wasn't expecting it to flower so fast though because I was hoping to get a nice scrog. Instead I just kept the net in for some lazy lst and as support for later in flower. Your plants are looking good too. Happy growing!!
Looking good ... Just got done harvesting a Northern Lights Auto & a AK-49 Auto myself. Currently waiting on my White Widow Auto to finish up. I wish you the same success.Good luck with the rest of your grow
Great grow! I have one just coming into flower. Seems to be the shorter denser type like yours. Tried to LST her but the node length is so short that it is really difficult to open up her structure. Looks like you did well! Thank you for the inspiration.
Hello βοΈπΌπ½
Looking good πππΌ
How long did it take to germinate?
What method did you use?
How many grows have you done?
βοΈπΌπ
@Puffer_Bill, thanks!
1. It took 24 hours to germinate in paper towel. Then I planted it and took about 3 days to pop out of the soil.
2. I pre-soaked my soil to runoff and let it sit while I was germinating the seed. then I planted it in the soil and put a plastic dome over it. It worked out well and the first time I tried it this way.
3. I have done 3 grows now, just single plants. This looks like it will be my most successful so far but only time will tell as it goes through the process to harvest.
@Puffer_Bill, I have a small vivosun oscillating fan and it is blowing just above the plant. Enough to get a nice breeze and you can see it blowing in the wind. The marshydro LED is a bit on the hot side, so it really helps with the heat. I am awaiting my HLG 100w quantum board.
@Puffer_Bill, Yes, was hoping to do scrog but she flowered so fast there, it's just not gonna happen. Net will still be good support as the buds get fat and I can use it to tie her as needed. Really short and bushy for a sativa, resembles more of an indica.
@Drako921, yes I will update all the way to the end. It's comming soon too. Possibly this weekend already. She really started changing colors this week and I'll be adding my new week update probably today. This is my 3rd plant but first time trying grow diaries.
Hi, thanks for your visit. Your plant is beautiful, looks healthy, but I think your pot is a little small, I tried in pots of 7L (2 gal) in the past and the plant is smaller and the harvest a little less well.. Today I use pots of 11l (3gal) and the plant grows better, abundant harvest and big buds. π
@Servietsky,I appreciate you trying to be helpful however I grow in 2 gals for a legit reason. If you ultimately new the size of my grow space, you would understand the logic of why I grow in 2 gal pots. This is a stubby lady compared to my northern lights grows which were almost too big for my tent in the pots so I have no issue with the size of plant I get. Happy growing!! Nice plants.
