Blue Dream Auto

I scrapped the Strawberry Eclair it wasnt going anywhere and it couldnt fit into my grow room for photos. So starting fresh with blue dream from fast buds. Medium : coco buffered twice mixed with perlite (70/30). I buffered the coco twice with 1 gallon of tap water and 7.5 ml of calmag 8 hours apart. ph of the run off according to the test indicator was showing a yellowish colour which means it was between 6-6.5. After buffering the coco i flushed it with phed water to drain out any excess salts and the tds meter was showing the same 270 ppm as my tap water which im hoping means ive flushed any salts out of it then added my perlite mix. I have my seed germinating in a paper towel after soaking for roughly 20 hours.. It should show a root by the end of the day. I will be feeding initially with 270 ppm tapwater for the first couple of days then slowly incorporate rhizotonic into the grow to help the root growth in the initial stage. As I have been advised I should add rhizotonic as early as possible but keep it to only 30 ppm.This is my first grow and i might not be filling these journals out the ideal way so any criticism and advice on both the grow and diary entries would be greatly appreciated.

The leaves have flattened out thankfully. The humidity is fluctuating alot between 45 and 65 ill have to wait it out until i get a humidifer/ dehumidifer. I added some mycorrhizae. I am planning on adding my base nutrients around day 11 with 10% run off.

Was expecting my temperatures to drop but for some reason it's just not getting any colder outside. Hoping the armorsi will help to reduce any damage due to heat stress. Plant started very slow but is picking up the pace now as I'm feeding it a stronger mix hoping for it to keep stretching like this before it flowers. If anyone notices any problems please let me know.

its been around ten days since i updated this and since my lst attempt the plant has really exploded and become super bushy to the point where im not sure how to lst it further and get light to all the main stems. right now there is 6 main stems and im hoping i can keep them even throughout the next month and a half to allow all the colas to grow evenly i dont know how its gonna turn out but a man can hope! Im curious as to how long there is left before it enters flowering mode. lets hope it keeps growing nicely.

This one is really really bushy and im not sure how to deal with it lol he grew vigorously over the last few weeks but with all the leaf coverage i dont know how to penetrate the light into the lower sites which are mostly shaded by leaves. I want to defoliate but i dont know how because ive heard you cant just snip the leaves with scissors otherwise you will bleed chlorophyll into the stems maybe some leaf tucking would be safer for a noob like me. All things considered though this is easily the biggest plant in the grow room.

Buds starting to slowly fatten up I increased the feeding to 1.5 EC hope it does not burn the plants. Im seeing a few orange hairs on the plant from top buds to lower buds could this be a problem ? Other then that going pretty smoothly hope it doesnt take too long before I can chop her down!

Sorry for the gap we were abit all over the place for a while had to check some trichromes and try to get the drying room ready. She will be starting a flush soon hopefully in about a week or ten days. Because of the weight of her alot of her branches are basically horizontal lol heres to hoping she pulls through

Im getting closer to harvest so decided to upload some trichrome pics. This plant and i think most plants in my diary are a week older than they show i think it was because I lost track a while back and some weeks I uploaded a day before or a couple days after a week my bad anyways three of the plants have been getting closer to harvest so decided to upload trichrome pics for this week I would really like some feedback on possible harvest time as a first timer it can be a little confusing.I want a sativa high from this plant so based on the current trichromes when should I cut her down ?

She is one or two days away from the chop. I want her trichromes to be mostly cloudy with as little amber as possible. I think tomorrow might be the day.
