DAY 57-63
I couldn't take care of this lady while I was on holiday, but I have to thank my Grandma for the help with watering because I found her like this π when I came back π
The budlets have been forming constantly, I can't really say if that's fast or not but I liked to see them grown π
Green nice leaves, no signs of overfeeding, overwatering or deficiencies whatsoever, at least to my newbie eyes π
I found some aphids under the leaves and removed them by hands, it was a couple of them though, I just applied some Neem Oil to prevent it to spread all around.
This update isthis short because I wasn't here during this week of course, but I'm already writing the new one so you'll see how is she doing right now, so stay tuned for more π
Thanks for passing by and enjoy your growing π
Did you already transplant her? A 11L pot is on the small side.. try to germinate your Autoflowers directly in the final pots because transplanting autoβs will keep them small because of the stress you give her.
Good luck!π
@CoastGrower, yes man I did π I had these 11L flower pots and thought were enough, I think I must have read it somewhere. Im planning to put down another auto very soon and I will definitely go for a bigger one and follow your advice.π thanks again and good luck with yours too π
Your plant looks quite strong.

I'm growing NL autos and germinated in rock wool then put into final pots 11litre. The plants did slow down for a week. In future with autos I will be germinating in final pots from start.
@Puffer_Bill, thanks for the link man, it was an interesting reading, I ever considered specifically the issues with a too big flower pot, I made my mind to go for coco jiffys for germination, organic pots for the first leaves level growing and then to just pick up a final decently dimensioned container according to the type of plant. However, I will check the roots once harvested and then have a try with a 25L one so to make a comparison βοΈ
@Germano, I'm already back man, I was a couple of weeks behind with posting so I will show soon how I found this lady once back π anyway I had my Grandma water the plants, she was hwre I guess 3 or 4 times in 10 days, so I think she watered once every second or third day, which even though it was like crazy hot was just enough, all the plants were just fine π however, I'm projecting a system to water remotely, but that's the next level and I will work on it just for the next season in case. Enjoy your growing βοΈ
The sidebranches are going to pop now :).
I would use a bit thicker strap.. the one you are using could cut in your plant if itβs windy.. thereβs a diary on here were a guy lost the top of his plant.
Sheβs looking good!
@CoastGrower, thanks buddy, I will :) it happened on my Cheese too, a storm damaged the top and I had to cut it off, and now it happened againg on this one (just by some strong wind, it will be in the next weekly update), so I will go for thicker ties to avoid repeating the same mistake!
The plant is still going to grow for a few more weeks. Mine stopped growing around week 9-10. Your plant is going to love LST. Just be a bit carefull :).
