02.08.20 - Plants are moving along nicely, I would think they would be further long but 35 days into the grow - Fast Buds state "Full maturation takes roughly 60 days" and "These Pineapple Express seeds produce large auto-flowering plants, so make sure you have the proper space to account for its beastliness." Will be feeding with a compost tea on Monday and will do another top dress this time Bloom Boost in 10 days from Organically Grown and a Second Compost Tea - this should carry the plant through harvest. 02.10.20 - Today just watered the plants with my first compost tea, it looked amazing, had a beautiful white protein foam on the top - I will have a look at the plant's first thing in the morning and see if they are dancing! These Plants have been slow to grow - I do not think they are responding well to an organic environment, a friend said that they really love a heavy Nutrient Regiment - we will have to see! 02.11.20 - So today the day after the compost I did a little more defoliation, as well as a bit of LST on Plant #3 and Plant #2 02.12.20 - Letting them do their thing will be doing more defoliation this weekend / maybe lolipopping

Grow Questions

MrJonesstarted grow question 5 years ago
Anyone growing or grown FB Pineapple Express do my plants look like they are on track, I feel they are not, at only 12/14 inches at the 35-day mark - would like to hear from @Fast_Buds as well, I am growing organically no chemical nutrients here - thoughts?
Solved
Plant. Too short

It looks great ... Autoflowers don't really grow in height until flower where they stretch almost doubling in size. If your plant is already 12-14 inches , expect her to be over 2 feet once she ends the stretch. Just keep doing what you're doing the plant seems to be loving it !!!

@OutForReal when growing with Dry Amendments even in COCO the sweet spot is 6.8 when growing in COCO and using liquid nutrients then it is 5.8 / Natural dry amendments at least the good ones have Soil Conditioners to help balance pH and make nutrients more available in the soil. Achieved with ingredients like bat guano, worm castings, limestone, molasses, and humic acid It is not a PH issue - thanks though, I have read most of the FB Pineapple Express Diaries and the plants really growing fast are the ones using Chemical Nutrients.

@MrJones, Hi bro, nice harvest ๐Ÿ˜ you achieved the gram per watt ( so close )๐Ÿ‘ It's really interesting to see how the ph range can be different from a type of nutrients to another , I mean before I saw that diary I was persuaded that 5.8ph was the sweet spot in any cases and I am excited to try a dry amendment coco grow โœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ Cheers , keep up the good work ๐Ÿ‘Œ

@MrJones, Bro you are the 1st one to break my "illusions" about coco growing so off course I'll follow and check that diary till last day ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘ I need to better understand your medium mix and maybe reproduce your method because it seems great

I think plant #3 needs a bit of under cleaning - growing buds, not leaves :)

I would definitely say your right on track! Just like me. Weeda said you really get the height during week 4,5,6! Most autos if you get close to 30 inches indoor then you are doing well!! Just make sure to use LST to spread your canopy out to get more light penetration!! Itโ€™s really important when using leds!! ๐Ÿ˜Ž
MiPotFarm
MiPotFarm
@MrJones, no problem ๐Ÿ™ LST can definitely be time consuming lol constantly adjusting as the plants grow! But it definitely pays off! ๐Ÿ’ฏ good luck ๐Ÿ‘

@MiPotFarm, absolutely I used about 15 wires per plant there for a while, just pulled the last few out this morning, thanks for the great feed back!

p.s stressing them [even lst] will require recovery time - can be useful on occasion!

@MrJones, Appears that most if not all major bud sites are exposed so looking shweet on that front gromo! microbes and funghi always part of the regime - got to nurture that rhizosphere innits!
MrJones
MrJones
@mr_h_kovert, I have done all the training with these ladies that they are going to get, time to let them ride, they are all clean from the 3rd node down, just a bushy group. I will try and get a few underneath shots tonight, I think the microbes in the soil are finally waking up and they are loving it.

Looks great. Seems like you have the indica pheno. Iโ€™m excited to see how yours finish. I like how you used 5 gallons pots. I think once they go into flower youโ€™ll get some height. Also with a 100% organic grow thatโ€™s just awesome and I know once they get rolling they will smell unbelievable. Iโ€™ll be watching your grow. Everything looks perfect ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’š

awesome diary! I'm getting close to harvest for my Pineapple Express Autos. How did you decide when to cut them down?

@MrJones, that is super helpful! I found a page about drying and curing on that same website- I'll be referencing that, too
MrJones
MrJones
@jamjam887766, Awesome thanks for stopping by! I use a USB microscope, to check Thricomes, I like at least 80/90% cloudy and about 5% of those bein AMBER. now my wife likes more Amber in her smoke, I am going to link you a very short article that is just packed full of information, once in a while you have to harvest early because of environmental, the dry and the cure were the hardest for me to nail down! https://cprosolutions.com/2019/03/the-different-stages-of-trichome-development/

@hornato420, Growing organic is a bit slower and requires a little more patience but I am very pleased with the state they are in now, and truly appreciate your positive comments!
