215 grams wet with the stem, I have to have the stem to hang it up I'm guessing real weight is about 100 grams. Can't wait to see final results in a week or so
Final results real weight was 33 grams so an oz. Not bad off a freebie
@raptor65, thankyou, this one's going great I'm worried about them syncing up before mid March as the NYC diesel is a bit behind for one of them and I'm not sure how to speed it up.
Nice looking grow, you'll get a decent yield off of these.
A couple things I'm noticing:
1) What soil are you using? I give my 3.5L or so every 4 to 5 days, I lift the pots every day and I only feed when it feels really light - like there's no more water in it. I just noticed they looked slightly droopy, could be a little too much water, but it could also just be the time of day you took the pic. Right after lights on and a bit before lights out mine always droop.
2) Are your lights as blue as they look in the pics? Blue is good for veg, but these are definitely in flower and need a lot more red light.
3) Also, you don't have to stress over training them, I did all that my first grow and hated all the work too. Now I pretty much let my autos grow how they want, I just pull off leaves that shade out the bottom bud sites. I'm getting better yields that way and enjoying growing a LOT more.
4) I just alternate between a plain water feed and then one with nutes, but I'm going to go with super soil my next run, all this chemical mixing is a pain.
5) Everyone has their own grow style that works for them, I'm just sharing what works for me, please just ignore whatever isn't helpful.
6) MOST IMPORTANT: Don't get discouraged, they're growing fine and it's all worth it when you get that taste of home grown...
@Iamthejazz123, cheers man lets hope they go well, i got my honeymoon coming up on the first of april so i needed them to be done by then but atm seems like thats not going to happen...
@Lolberries, it sounds like you have things pretty dialed in. I hope the new tent gives you enough vertical space.
Autos can be a wild ride with all the variation you get between plants, even if they're the same strain. My journal is 3 NL autos in a single tent, same pack of seeds, same germination date, everything identical, and one is 21 inches and 3/4 of the way through flowering while the other 2 are almost 3 feet tall and barely into flower. With autos, you just gotta see where the ride takes you.
Enjoy it, don't sweat the small stuff, your plants look good!
@Iamthejazz123, thanks man i needed some advice here, cocopeat is what im using so it doesnt hold much water. the tall plant in my nyc diesel auto diary needs watering pretty much every single day and i just do the others every 2-3 because theyre smaller and hold it for longer but im making up a 10ltr batch every time because its easier for amounts when it comes to reading the feeding chart. as for the LST i was very big into it at the start but i did it wrong and i completely missed the point of the even canopy and it started to drain me alot the last few days i just wanted to try something different so i took out all the bottom LST wires and bought 2 tomato cages and because of the previous training they just bent out easier over the cage so i have pretty good light distribution overall, i can just see one or two colas not getting much light because they are so little in length they cant reach out for it.
as for my lights im using a variable diode viperspectra light so i can use them independantly at whatever percentage i feel. right now they are all back to 100% i turned the red down yesterday because i moved it up to 100% with the blue and white that were already on 100% and in 4 days she grew really tall and started touching the light which was at the highest point in my tent and started getting burnt so to reduce light intensity i turned the red back down until i got my new tent which was about 6 hours ago and in that time shes grown another 2 cms taller so fingers crossed she stops very soon! im using viperspectra's spectrum guide for my light and it recommends all 3 at 100% during the flower cycle. i have been told blue is good for veg but i have also been told it is very much as important to flower as veg and they need a good dose of both and the fact that i have two smaller plants in there it would be better to have the blue in there to see if they may stretch a bit more. the height of these two strains is 75-110cms indoors, one is 89cms now and the other one same strain is at 47-50 as it is the same with this one so i really need them to stretch a little more especially with how bushy it is. iv done some defoliation but i have to constantly do it because the new leaves tower the lower ones and i can only shock the plant so much.
