Purple Bud Auto

SunandMoon My thought is these will start to grow past the fat leaves but dominance still looks like its in the main cola. maybe they'll grow, I don't know, maybe I'll get 2-3 inch buds. Planted 7/26, my real journal of 8/4 says they all sprouted. Nutes:: 1-1-1 2 times a week Daily Inspection: ok Pests: Killed me a leaf hopper Weather: 2 days of sun then back to gray and windy, slightly drizzle but lots of wind Problems: The fan leaves pointing down don't re-direct real well Water: 10-15 seconds of a sprayer Canopy is flat and hoping the colas shoot past it soon.

SunandMoon I have 9-3 when I first noticed them flowering Its 9-15, so they've been growing. Nutes: My nute went from 1-1.7-1 to the last one I did Thursday at 1.5 -2.55-1.5, Kelloggs organic kelp at 3/4 strength and Budswell at 1 1/2 strength. watering at 300 ml. Weather: Considering a flower stacker, but all things being equal, sunlight is the weakest link. I get so little now. Wind was gusting to 30mph, fog, drizzle, ya true OG. Benefit of LST: plants don't cast a large shadow, these are well under 2 feet, I thought for sure they'd Jack in the bean stock 3 feet more.

SunandMoon Added my bi-weekly nute at 1-1-1. Previous nite was .5-.5.-.5 which was 5 times the back of the soul bag. At 1-1-1 I’m 10 times the soil label. Amendments: mykos Humic acid kelp meal azomite oyster flour crab meal vermiculite worm poop I will tea for N maybe I don’t know yet

SunandMoon Just did LST with the goal to get the main cola lower than the secondary colas. While the stems were thick, I just worked them little by little. Date sprouted: 7/26 7/28 LST 8/29 8/30 Anchor method: duct tape as opposed to spikes or weights Weather: Maritime fog, marine layer. Water: daily 200-150 ml I need to do a major watering but today is nute day (2 times a week) Daily inspection: Looks ok to me. Thoughts: Stick with following bottle directions cut half or quartered or full. Due a crab meal topper.

SunandMoon I’m just letting them grow and checking them. I changed nutes from a 2-2-2 kelp to a 0-7-5. Not full strength. It’s like 0-2.625-1.875. A change from 1.5-2.25-1.5 so I can deplete the N in the soil. I’m gonna keep that concentration then flush the last 2 weeks... maybe, I’ll have to see what the bud tops are doing

SunandMoon The takeaways from this my second grow. White Label phenos gave me a good variety. 2 plants had bud rot, some aphids and thripes on the plants. Buds are all about 2-3 inches. already flushed. The two dark ones will go into a dark box tomorrow for 2 days to see if they get purple some more, then they get taken down. On my first grow of NL I learned about genetics, amendments and curing, On this grow, LST, nutrients, and more plant problems. The takeaway from this my second grow is to learn about the root stimulators. I can control pests with a humic acid, kelp meal, and mykos amendments along with a veg stage neem schedule, I understand a nute system, and I understand what pests are in my area. I also understand amino acids and chitin. These should be tasty buds in about a month.

SunandMoon I've been smoking it, very stoney, I tried getting the trichome forest in there, but this is ocean grown and cured. Taste is decent, a little peppery harsh but it gets you there with a bowl. My next round I'm reformulating my amendments. The nutrient cycle L Amino Acids Mykos Azos Budswell Worm crap Humic Acid Enzymes - Maybe Humboldts My feed Crab Meal Alfalfa Meal Kelp Meal Calcium - Oyster shell flour Calcium - Bone Meal Mag Sulfur potassium silicate Iron Azomite - trace 3-3-3 DTE Starter box Once I have all my dry weights and volume fiqured out, i'll see how it does. I plan to have a top cover feed as well. My grow plan will be nute every other day 2-2-2 kelp through veg then Humboldt in week 1 flower. I'll try to create great flavor, I mean my crop tasted good until it resined so thick, maybe less resin is necessary. So, the recap, the animal: Autos Challenge: Increase Root mass Challenge: Get out of it the potential flavor from the genetics The law of the minimum Anyhoo, I got a trichome forest from this last crop and it's knock your ass down potent. Literally, it will knock you down.
