Blackberry Auto

Week 5 Plant 1 - Although this plant is retarded as all hell it's producing bud very fast but I'm guessing they will be airy but looks like terpenes are developing and it's getting smelly so that's good. You can also see hues of purple all throughout the developing flowers. Plant 2 - This one has tight node spacing and looks to be growing decently well but no color on the bud sites however there is some purple color on the under sides of the lower fan leaves. Plant 3 - This girl is the only one that is hasn't been afflicted with retardation of some sort kind or another. It looks great so far and I love the colors on the flowers but I feel they are developing a little slow. Crossing my fingers this one puts out some decent nugs. I noticed rust spots on some of the leaves which may indicated cal deficiently so I added some in the feeding. Plant 4 - Absolutely depressing. When I lifted out of the tent to take pictures the fabric pot was heavy and soil still very moist even though I watered 2 days ago which tells me root development is poor. Most of the leaves are clawing indicating nitrogen deficientcy but this girl has been retarded since it first sprouted. I'm debating about cutting it down early but the little flowers it has is developing terpenes and I'm curious to see what I get if I let it go. So far this grow has been sort of frustrating. I use fox farm ocean forest with a little extra perlite but it appears as if this soil was too hot for these genetics as plant 1, 2, and 4 have been struggling since they first sprouted out of the soil. I treat all 4 of these plants exactly the same and I'm getting 4 completely different results which is very frustrating because I don't where I went wrong so I'm towards the conclusion that these particular genetics are just very sensitive to amended soil like FFOF and maybe next time I need to use a cocoa/rockwool seed plug or something so the first week of its life while sprouting it's not touching the soil yet. /shrug This is only week 5 so things are coming along fast but I worry I will only net a few ounces from this entire grow if I am lucky but we'll see,
