Basementganja Day 36 - Start of week 6! soilless media was ~90% dried up since the last watering (5 days ago)! Today she was fed 1 gallon dosage of the above nutes! I'm expecting that she'll be dry in 4 days from now, since she's closer to the light, and more rooted into the pot! Day 38 - defoliation Day 42 - End of week 6 - selective de-leaf

Basementganja Day 49 - Buds are coming in nicely! The flowering plants that were raised closer to the light have all shown signs of excess light, so they're now all sitting at the same ground level height!

Basementganja Day 56! Buds are getting thick! I think the signs shown on this plant(and my other flowering plants) are caused from to too high PH. PH has been adjusted down from 6.5 to 6.

Basementganja Compared to her sister, this Pineapple Express auto flowered very early! I LST'd her while I could, and defoliated what was necessary. She turned out great! Although the yield for this phenotype is at my lower limit for acceptable. I'm happy that I'm growing a second one, that vegged out longer, making for a much larger Pineapple Express!

One of my two FastBuds Pineapple Express Auto plants' leaves started turning brown halfway up the colas overnight exactly like they are in your Week 7 photos. I initially freaked out and thought it was nute burn but it looks like it's just something that happens with this strain. Have you had other Pineapple Express Autos that do this? Your grow/harvest looks amazing! How did you know when was the right time to harvest? @Basementganja

@jamjam887766, Thanks! I usually try to peak at the trichomes (20x cell phone clip macro lens), and look for 30% amber on the buds... But a lot of the time, I just Flush when the growth slows down dramatically, then harvest a week later! I think the PH on this plant was too high, but I'm not certain.. The issue didn't occur on the other PE I grew. I have only grown one other Pineapple Express, here's the link to her :) https://growdiaries.com/diaries/44329-fastbuds-pineapple-express-grow-journal-by-basementganja

Hi, they look beautiful, thank you for sharing. Please a question: how much water do you give them and how often? Thank you.😀
