The Zkittles auto broke ground on a Tuesday morning. Within the first week, she grew to about 4 inches tall and was showing very strong and fast growing characteristics.
I didn’t feed her at all during the first 7 days of life; I just kept her warm and humid.
Off to an amazing start.
OH...AND, this is the first time I’ve ever grown cannabis. First plant ever and she’s doing amazing.
The little lady really took off this week, so much so that I was able to start a little lst.
She’s doing great so far for being only 14 days old...or at least from what I can see.
Whaddya think?
This week was extremely easy. My lady has been growing so vigorously that I feed her a little heavier than other plants. Usually I would only use about a half a litre of water every feeding just to keep my medium as well as other environmental factors under control, but, iv been dumping on this one. She gets at least 2 litres a feed now, however, I don’t water for another 4 days after, so it’s convenient.
She’s absolutely exploding with growth, she’s taken LST VERY well, and I also removed a few fan leaves that were in the way and she’s not even phased. I can’t wait to see how she finishes.
So, it was nice and warm finally here and I decided to move ALL of my girls outside. There’s no specific pics of the Zkittlez auto here but you can see 4 happy, healthy plants. The ladies are all growing really well and I’m really excited about the not-so-distant future flower
This next week after a TON of wicked heat and sunlight, my girls have absolutely exploded. All 4 of them have double in size and weight, are drinking twice as much, and as you can see by the pics, a little heat stroke has hit them, but, a nice nutrient rich watering brought them back by the next morning so no harm done.
Flowering has just started to show its signs and we’re now off and running.
This week really showed me how much fun it is to watch my babies start to flower.
Being the first time I’ve ever grown cannabis, I was really anxious but also very excited for this next stage of growth.
I switched up my nutrients as I ran out of my Sensi-grow and just ordered another ph-perfect product.
I should point out that I have NEVER ph’d my water. I don’t even have the meter, but you would never know it based on the growth. That’s not to say I won’t, but for now, I wanted to grow in the easiest way possible for my first time.
I’ve been doing a lot of defoliation (apparently a no-no for autos) however, my girls are loving the hair-cut. Not one sign of stress whatsoever.
Because of their size, I found it hard to specifically tie down her stems, so what I’ve done is actually just use a little weight physics and I’ve hung garden staples off of her to allow her branching to shoot out sideways and allow the maximum amount of sunlight into her core as I can.
Hit me up in the comments with any more advice or info you think I might be able to use.
All in all, I’m happy with my progress so far. Thanks for checking me out.
So this week was pretty well the same as last. Kept up with feedings and watering, no real changes besides height and new growth.
Still doing some minor defoliation on all plants.
I know this diary is for my zkittlez auto but I’ve also got 2 moby dick plants which are photos and are not flowering as of yet but are growing like, dare I say it, weeds, lol.
My zkittlez and sweet tooth autos are doing great and showing no signs of issues at all. One of my moby dicks that I have been training in a 5 gallon pot is more than 4 feet wide and showing a ton of growth tips. Loving it.
Should be putting out a pretty good yield on this first ever grow.
I’m hoping for more quality than quantity so only time will tell.
