She's stretched a bit toward the light, so I've added support and lowered the light to about 8 inches away. Making a nutrient schedule to implement either the end of this week or the start of the next. Plain ol' waterings til then :)
Added my (approx.) 600w LED board into the tent. This oughtta aid in robust growth. Nutrient feeding schedule coming thursday/friday. Going to be taking a less is more approach with this girl.
Watering with extremely light nutes this week, and going to be hitting them with 1/3 strength the next. Week 6 will likely begin full strength. Still bottled water as far as base water goes.
I've heard topping autos is ill-advised. Any advice on the topic? Should i just let this girl go on naturally or should i top her? I want to milk her for the best yield possible.
You can top autos...but definitely top the ones that are very healthy to begin with, then there's less chance of slowing it way down. The #1 thing that helped me get bigger buds on the autos was cleaning up the bottoms. Right before flowering and right after go through and pluck or cut away any budsites/branches that are gonna be the shady ones, and some leaves too.
Happy growing the plant looks great this week hope the calmag helps it out.✌️
Began feeding with 1/3 strength mutes. Will be feeding mutes twice a week, starting from week 2 in the Fox Farm Soil feeding schedule. If they respond well, I will continue feeding 1/3 strength until week 1/2 of flower. Spotted signs of K def. Or light burn on Sunday the 27th of October.
So she seems to be growing well aside from her lower leaf coloration which is showing signs of deficiency or light burn. Almost positive it's a calmag issue, so once she dries out, I'll hit her with some Calmag plus. No other nutes this week though. Unless she's deficient in something else. Tangerine dream is also showing signs of calcium def.
First sets of pistils were spotted on Sunday and so I decided to make today the official first day of flower for this plant, woot! Gave her a 2/3 str. nute feeding and will be monitoring her closely. This week I added in 5mL of the tiger bloom when I mixed my 1gal of nutes.
Thursday update: Got an Exhale CO2 bag hung up, super excited to see how much they help my plant! On other update news, i decided to do some super-cropping on account of her rigourous growth. One of the branches snapped just a little, but enough for me to get the tape. Other than that, all is well! She's drinking plenty of water every day and I haven't fed her nutes since Monday.
Monday update: Ordered some Exhale CO2 bags for the grow tent that will be arriving thursday!
Fed her a 2/3 strength dosage of the FF trio today. Gonna let her dry out then proceed to feed her pH6.8 water with molasses. Already showing trichs only 2 weeks into flower, I can tell she's going to prosper!
Monday, 18th update: Added a video showing buds right after a molasses watering - frosty ;)
She's a beast! Trucking along, just doing her thing.... I hit her with a molasses watering last night and she frosted up today! And now she gives off a super sweet, kind of tangy scent. Dont worry, I rub the branch calyxes, not the buds haha. I will be feeding her with the usual ratio of FF nutes(10ml Big Bloom, 5ml Grow Big + Tiger Bloom). Also up until this point, I've been giving her foliar spray with 5ml/1gal Calmag+. I will no longer be doing that to combat relatively high humidity I've had over the past week.
It's been a downhill battle working with the humidity within my tent this past week. The temps have been dropping down to 70f at times but usually stays at 75f.
But the girl doesn't seem to mind it at all, she's getting visibly chunkier this week! Filled with scent she's producing a super sweet Skittles kind of smell. Remains the forerunner in my tent ⛺.
Cheers growers, less than a month til harvest!
So far I've just fed her molasses this week. Only 2 weeks away and I'm super excited for it! She's been a treat :) Her scent is very sweet and tangy/gassy... Wish we had smell-o-vision x.x
Her next waterings will be nuteless until harvest aside from molasses one more time.
Update: So I guess I made a rather convenient miscalculation - harvest window begins in three days! Wednesday, Dec. 4th officially marks day 67 from seed. The breeder's claim it is ready to be harvested day 70 from seed and she sure looks it. Excited, because this means I can begin my next cycle of plants. I will pull out my macro lens to take some close-up shots tomorrow. Also, I am planning on upgrading to a bigger tent, probably a 3x3x6 tent. I think that'll be good enough to make some waist-high plants. I'll likely be getting this upgrade sometime next week.
Awesome grow! Definitely could have yielded more but I'm pleased with the overall quality of the strain. Easy to grow with only a slight Calmag def. Showing up halfway through. Other than that, she's extremely easy to grow and rewarding at that.
