Apple Strudel & Orange Sherbet Auto

BudHunter420 Started the first week of veg on 08/05. So far, both have developed really well. I haven't given them a drop of water yet since the pots still have a good weight from the last watering. I’ll water only when the pots are noticeably lighter or at the first signs on the plants. 08/06. Oops, the Apple Strudel had a little lay down 😁. I added some soil. The pot of the Orange is noticeably lighter than the pot of the Apple Strudel. So, I will water both with my pressure sprayer. In total, I will give 2L at pH 6.52 with 6ml Root Juice, 2ml Acti Vera, 2ml Bio Heaven, 1ml Bio Grow, and 0.6ml Calmag. Orange got about 1.2L and Apple Strudel got about 800ml. 08/09. In the 11 days since they both broke through, they have developed well. The last watering was probably necessary; it’s great to finally see progress instead of setbacks.

BudHunter420 I'm also starting the second week of veg on 08/12. Both are developing really well. I'm a bit concerned about the Orange Sherbet; why are its leaves relatively small compared to the Apple Strudel? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments. The pots have gotten quite light again, which means tonight after work, each plant will get 1.5L at pH 6.4-6.5. I'll mix the whole 3 liters with 3ml Bio Grow, 10ml Root Juice, 6ml Bio Heaven, 4ml Acti Vera, and 1.8ml Calmag. I think the two ladies will have some fun with that for now. On 08/16, the two are now 18 days old, and I think they have a Calmag deficiency. I'll add more Calmag during the next watering, but I believe the VPD hasn't really been right either, which might be causing the deficiency. (There's a YT video from Sanlight that explains it, for example.) I'm curious to see. The VPD value is better now since I currently have 26.8° at 60%. It was definitely drier before. I hope the two get out of the deficiency. Keep your fingers crossed for me! On 08/17, the two are 19 days old and ready for the gym. Started with LST, and before the LST, there was a pre-workout shake. Overall, 4L for both pots were feather-light before watering (2L per pot). In that, there were 8ml Bio Grow, 8ml Bio Heaven, 8ml Acti Vera, 7.2ml Calmag (I calculated how much I need with my tap water to have the optimum amount of Calmag), and finally, 16ml Root Juice. I hope to see the two explode in a few days 💥 🤯

BudHunter420 I hope that more happens in the growth soon. And I hope I've finally got the Calmag issue under control. On day 26, the first hairs are showing. The Apple Strudel is getting a bit tricky to manage with LST. I've cut off a few leaves from both the Orange Sherbet and the Apple Strudel that were just in the way or lying on the ground. On day 27, both get 3.5L with 14ml Bio Grow, 7ml Acti Vera, 7ml Bio Heaven, and 5ml Calmag at pH 6.41. Both had to be defoliated a bit. I'm doing this for the first time with autoflower, and I hope I don't get any attitude back for it. Ppfd is around 550-570. The Apple Strudel is growing quite compact and developing a ton of leaves, which makes LST difficult and I regularly lose track of things 😅

BudHunter420 27.08. The two are really growing strong. Unfortunately, I injured the orange a bit and I'm running out of space in the pot to keep the main shoot down. Therefore, I will leave the main shoot alone and only bring the side shoots further out. I have to do the same with the apple strudel. In 1-2 days, both will be lightly defoliated again. 28.08. All side shoots bent further out. Orange sorbet has lost 12 leaves and apple strudel 14 leaves. The orange has shown no aftereffects from its injury. On 30.08. The two each received 2.5L with a total of 15ml Bio Grow, 10ml Acti Vera, 10ml Bio Heaven, and 6ml Calmag at pH 6.46. Right after watering, both were slightly defoliated. How quickly the two are putting on new leaves is crazy. And then I continued to try to bring the side shoots further out.

BudHunter420 03.09. Both get 2.5L. The total 5L contains 15ml Bio Grow, 5ml Calmag, 10ml Acti Vera, 10ml Bio Heaven, 5ml Bio Bloom, and 5ml Top Max at pH 6.50 at 22°. 06.09. The pots are light, so another load of 2.5L per pot. The total 5L contains 15ml Bio Grow, 5ml Calmag, 10ml Acti Vera, 10ml Bio Heaven, 5ml Bio Bloom, and 5ml Top Max at pH 6.50 at 22°.

BudHunter420 09.09. (Day 42/BW2/BT14) Both are getting 2.5L according to the BB schedule week 3, with a total of 10ml Calmag at pH 6.37 and about 21.8°. 12.09. (Day 45/BW2/BT17) Both are getting 2.5L after week 3 with a total of 11ml Calmag at pH 6.46. Orange sherbet had 4 tiny shoots taken off from the bottom as well as 11 leaves. Apple Strudel had 2 tiny shoots taken off and 23 leaves removed. The light is now running at 100%. Distance is 28cm and 29cm from the main stem. At the main stem, about 630-640ppfd. Further down between 520-600ppfd.

BudHunter420 16.09. (Day 49/W7/BW3/BT21) Both are getting 2.5L after week 3 with a total of 11ml Calmag and 20ml Bio Grow 17.09. (Day 50/W7/BW3/BT22) Both were lollypopped and defoliated. It hurts so much to cut away healthy shoots even when you know they won't amount to anything. 19.09 (Day 52/W7/BW3/BT24) Both are getting 2.5L after week 3 with a total of 8ml Calmag and 20ml Bio Grow at pH 6.28 21.09. Both are getting 2.5L after week 5 according to the schedule including 10ml Calmag at pH 6.28

BudHunter420 23.09. (Day 56/W8/BW4/BT28) 26.09. Both were very thirsty, the Apple more than the Orange. 5 days without water is definitely too long 😅 Both are getting 2.5L after week 5 according to the schedule, including 10ml Calmag and 6ml TopMax instead of 5ml at pH 6.28. They have wonderfully recovered after watering 3 hours ago, and you can't tell they were thirsty at all. I have to say I personally like the buds of the Apple a bit more, but I find the structure of the Orange overall a bit cooler. I'm so curious about the harvest and especially how the two will taste. I'm especially looking forward to top-notch Dry Sift Hash from the trim of both plants. Man, I'm so excited 🤩🤩

BudHunter420 30.09. (Day 63/W9/BW5/BT35) Start of the 5th flowering week and the start of the 9th week of life. 01.10. Both are getting 2.5L according to the Biobizz schedule after week 6. Bio Bloom with 4.2ml/L, 10ml total Calmag at pH 6.19. You can slowly see how the buds are gaining mass. I hope in 2 weeks both will be ready for harvest because I will most likely go on vacation then and I trust no one with my ladies 😅
