RQS AK AUTO x2 (SECOND GROW)

mcjordan So doing again AK Auto strains, this time only two, because ran out of space last time. Using RQS fabric pots. Will do more LST etc and learn from previous mistakes! Seeds are just planted in pot. Left plant uses "flowering" soil, right plant uses "greens" soil. Will update more!

mcjordan Week 2 started, plant heights - 6 and 4 cm, right plant struggled to grow I guess, so is 2 cm smaller. End of week 2, left plant growing nicely, right plant still kind of behind. Noticing small flies in grow tent :( They dont really do anything I think

mcjordan Week 3 was very small progress, plants just dont want to grow that much, probably shouldve added nutrients?

mcjordan Week 4 started with some LST and nutrients

mcjordan Week 5 passed with lots of LST and preparing for the upcoming rapid growth. Increased the nutrition amount. Started flowering near week 5 end.

mcjordan Week 6 is already in flowering. Seeing really increase in growth, trying to manage LST, plant is going wild. This week plant grew very tall, but trying to keep it down using LST. Lots of leaves, doing small defoliation.

mcjordan Week 7 started with adding bloom nutriens.

mcjordan Week 8 started, plant L is growing nicely, LST is working great. Plant R is growing more in height, kinda failed at some places to do LST correctly, also it doesnt have that dense bud sites as plant L. Upping more flowering nutritions, starting to lower start nutritions. Week started with defoliation, and some LST improvements. Hoping plants will heal nicely, and that removing some big fan leaves wont affect bud sites that much. Week 8 ended, and right plant is still stretching, which I dont really like, struggling to manage the height a bit. Flowers start to look nice, increasing nutriens.

mcjordan Week 9 - buds are getting more dense, starting to notice more brown colors, also seeing few issues with nutriens on leaves, if they keep progressing, i'll decrease nutrient amount i guess

mcjordan Week 10 passed, reduced nutrients, seeing also lots of what seems like nutrient burn, that got worse on left plant, at end of week also right plant started to show symptoms. Will start flushing next week. Plants did grow much in height.

mcjordan Week 11, started to flush, still seeing lots of issues with leaves, nutrient burn im guessing, smell is quite stronger now. Also did small defoliation with burnt or not needed leaves.

mcjordan Week 12 is now second week of flushing, looking at trichomes seems like is almost ready for harvest, went from clear to almost cloudy, will wait out a bit, and see next week if its ready for harvest, trying to aim for the perfect moment. Plant on left leaves are now quite bad, right plant leaves also starting to show some weaknesses, hoping that flushing and clearing plant is brining it all out and its preparing for harvest.

mcjordan I decided to wait out a bit more few days for harvest. Week 13 was planned for harvest, but then harvest moved few days later, so it was in transition from week 13 to week 14.

mcjordan Harvested at end of week 13, drying buds currently at week 14, will update when buds are trimmed and cured a bit. Wet weights: * Left plant - 281g * Right plant - 316g Did dry for almost 10 days, but they dried much faster, I think around 7 days were already done. This time zero mold which is great! But should've made drying a bit slower. Two plants yielded total dry weight of 110g which is good I think.
