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!
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Perfect time to start LST, the plants still bend and recover easily👌
not like when they get a little older and stiffer(I can relate LOL)
Good Job👍
Grow Big!!
Hey, plants look great👍👍
I wouldn't worry about those leafs changing colour, the plant is on the last stages of it's lifecycle,
colours should get more pronounced in the next few days(purples, yellows,reds and greens)👌 try lowering the R.H to 40% and the temps a little lower if possible 20-22c daytime, 18-20c nighttime,hope this helps.
Stay Healthy and Grow Big!!
Hey there, nice start👍
About those flies in your tent,Probably fungus gnats,flies don't hurt
anything, they lay eggs in the damp soil approx. 1'' below surface. producing more flies.
Larvae from the eggs attach to the roots stealing energy and nutrients from your plants.
Yellow sticky tabs work well for the flies.
I had the same problem,check out my diary
Good Luck and Grow Big💪
there are other products as well Gnat knix is one that comes to mind, Later👊
