Back again with round two of my autos. I'm growing 3 different strains in 2 gallon pots. A total of five plants. 2 lsd-25 autos by fast buds. 1 kush-n-cheese auto by dinafem. And two blow dream autos by victory seeds.***however for the purposes of this diary I'm going to just focus on the lsd-25's
Week one after germinating has been great. All 5 seeds popped and started without issue and have been growing great.
Unlike my first grow which started inside and then moved outside after 3 weeks, these ladies will be staying inside the whole time. I'm using a cheap led from Amazon putting 150 watts true power but before I start to flower I'll have added an additional more powerful light
Another good week with great growth. I decided I wanted to fim the plants to create new tops but slightly less stressful than topping. They seem to be recovering great.
I got a second light to add to the setup. It's a 250w cob sunshine spectrum white light. Much easier on the eyes lol and much brighter. The plants are loving it.
The plants entered into preflower this week and have been stretching like crazy... Even the little stunted one. Definitely smell that paint smell that fastbuds describes.
A week and a bit into flower. It's very clear I have one purple pheno and one green pheno. The purple one looks amazing. The green one is catching up during stretch after being stunted in veg.
Due to my cheap setup and the very muggy wet weather we have been having here I feel like there was very little Growth due to high humidity and ventilation that's not good enough. But the weather has dried up and I see the buds are starting to put on a lil weight. They smell so good. Very citrusy and sweet after that hit of paint smell on first whiff.
Buds are finally putting a bit of weight on. I'm nervous as these should be done in a week or two and seem behind to me. I'll just keep an eye on them. Also pretty sure the plants have been going through heat stress, I had to move the lights up as they were too close.
Spent the last week trying to overcome some mistakes. I was over feeding the plants in my anxiety to see them start to put on weight. It resulted in a bit of nutrient burn as well there was some heat burn as I had the lights too close which I also fixed by moving the lights up a few inches. I also added a bigger fan as there just wasn't enough airflow. Today was the final feeding and I'm gonna start flushing these girls after today. They put on some nice weight this week by the looks of it as well.
Good final week. Decent growth. Have been flushing. Will be cutting these ladies down in a few days. Next post will be when I harvest and dry and have weights for you folks.
Overall a weird yet beautiful strain from start to finish. Harvest wasn't as big as I though especially as compared to the other plants in the tent. Very fluffy weird buds overall but the color was mesmerizing. Will try to grow again in 5 gallon pot instead of the two gallon pot to see if I get better results.
