Here they are! I soak my seeds in a water/ 3% hydrogen peroxide mix for about 12 hours before planting! I have had a 100% germination rate using this method🌱 I am growing 5 plants and each one is numbered so I can track each individual plants lifecycle😁

This will be my first time growing an auto-flower, and I’m super excited about it. This will also be my first time growing a Barney’s Farms strain, which I’m also very excited about it🌞 I have given them one dose of light nutrients including some silica just to make sure their stems are nice and sturdy throughout veg🌱

All 5 have simultaneously started stretching today😁 I gave some light nutrients yesterday including some silica because I knew the stretch was coming! It looks like the silica helped a lot by keeping the stems nice and sturdy!🌱 I will update again when I start seeing the start of flowering😁

And I went on a five day vacation which caused some under watering symptoms. As soon as I return to hit them with a nice nutrient dose and freshwater and they bounced right back. Every plant seems to be growing a little differently which is kind of cool but kind of difficult to deal with. I just started low stress training, I know it’s late but it’s better than not doing it all and I’ve already started to see bud size increase🌞

She is really starting to fatten up those buds🤤 i have had a few deficiencies pop up as you can see, but I feel trying to correct them at this point is futile and probably will end up stressing the plant more than anything. She has sucked nutrients out of a few leaves causing them to turn yellow! So I know she is healthy at this point🌱

@Kilbarrack, Yeah I’m using a 1000W SunRaise LED off Amazon! It’s amazing I had to buy two and only like $110!

@ApolloCannabis, I see you have a 1000w led? Man, I wish I had something like that. Im running a Migro 100w & a 200w red cfl. I'll keep a eye on how you're getting on.

@10ounzepounder, they are called garden staples! You can get them fairly cheap on amazon! And they are super easy to use i love them! 😁

Why are you LST/Tieing down your fan leaves?!?!?!?
ApolloCannabis
ApolloCannabiscommented5 years ago
@Beastlybaker, it’s mostly to keep them from lifting up and shading other leaves! Also creating this T shape makes for a very sturdy plant! I have used this method in the past and liked it a lot. Everyone is different though😁
