Still progressing. Haven’t fed anything except cal mag water and occasional misting. Slowly lowering grow light, and still dialing in the temp and humidity. This week between 69-73 degrees Fahrenheit and humidity 40%-50%. Occasional leaf tucking

Slowly stretching, doubled in height and width. At end of week going to start feeding foxfarm trio at half dosage following feeding schedule. Growing steadily. Still slightly tucking leaves. Trying to give least amount of stress as possible.

Things are moving right along, been doing some LST on bottom nodes along with slight leaf tucking. Less stress is best with autos they say. After reading other diaries, I am assuming this next week she’s gonna start flowering. Might raise feed to 70% of what fox farm recommends, she’s been loving it so far! Have a diy co2 generator with yeast and sugar not sure ppm it’s producing but pumping it up.

Not much to update. Seen first set of pistols on top two nodes. Branches have definitely started their stretch, still early but might not grow that tall. Hoping for bulky 🤞🏾🤞🏾. Seeing what I believe is phosphorus deficiency could be needing flower feed but could just be wanting more, this is last feed of cal mag + week 3 foxfarm nutrients @50% dose. Going to switch to flower nutes @75% Temp 69.1-82.1•F RH 40-51%

Considering this the official first week of flower. Had light timer issues again smh, but got it fixed again. Plants doing great! Weakened led because the plant is growing right into it almost. Hoping she’s done stretching. Watered with week 7 Nutes @50%. Temp min 67 max 77 Fahrenheit Rh min 33% max 42% may need trellis to keep her from snapping when flowering. Still debating.

The bloody timer is gonna be the death of me but all in line and shouldn’t have this problem again. growing right along. Super cropped to even canopy and get some distance from lights. Wish she’d bud out quicker as the babies planted a few weeks back are growing more now too. But patience is key here. Max temp 84.1 Min temp 71.8 Rh max 34% Min 28%

Well according to grow site dark devil should be approaching her finish. As you can see we still have tons of new growth and pistils popping up. Feeding her week 10 nutrients at 70% strength. Upped water to 1.25 gals. Fed with ph of 6.2 runoff was 6.4 highs and lows high 82F w/47% RH low 68F w/40% RH. Just trucking right along. Tent is almost full to capacity having to give away the photoperiod. Taken a couple tester clones though. The main top that was HST has grown back to height of other tops now. Really learning a lot and wondering a lot more with this devilish little mama!

Cruising right along. Baby girl is definitely devilish. Week 11 feed this week ph 6.4 runoff at 6.6 environment high of 81.9F 51%RH low 67.5F 39%RH. She’s stacking at top still shooting pistils out slowly. Taking slot of real estate in tent had to get rid of one other plant :( but this one shall prevail. Super eager for the buds. The scent she leaves on your fingers after interaction is lovely.

Alright so I guess I ended up getting the wrong seed because this is clearly not an auto so we won’t consider it dark devil. Just a devil now haha😂, but got her in a new tent under the ts3000 now. I defoliate her and trellis net. We shall see where we go. I’ve taken some clippings will be up on my multi grow diary.

Hi buddy! Have you used any fertilizer before week 4? Sweet smokes, -Apolo
Bud_E_grows
Bud_E_growscommented5y
@Sweet_Seeds, she’s growing nicely. More than 2’ tall it’s cool.

Sweet_Seedscommented5y
@Bud_E_grows, Ok. Seeing as you're fertilizing these weeks, at the moment, just watch the plant grow. 😉 Sweet smokes! -Apolo

Bud_E_growscommented5y
@Sweet_Seeds, I started at end of week 3. Using fox farm trio at 50% dose. Using fox farm ocean forest soil.

Ehi man, very nice lady here, hope u will have awesome harvest. The mars hydro 1000 u are using is the quantum board?! Is it good?? Seems your lady love it!!! 💚👍
Bud_E_grows
Bud_E_growscommented5y
@CorsairGrow3r, I definitely recommend it, one of the best bang for your buck. I need to get myself a taller tent. 5’ seems like it can be filled quickly.

CorsairGrow3rcommented5y
@Bud_E_grows,Did the same man, I spent the last 2 years trying to understand this amazing plant.. I think I have som3 knowledge now but the road is long... I got a very small tent at the moment but when I will have a bigger one, the marshydro is one of the lights I'm thinkin about..
Bud_E_grows
Bud_E_growscommented5y
@CorsairGrow3r, yes indeed! Covering a 2x 4 doing fine, added a cheap blurple for flower. Thank you, really giving it my all. Watching tons of YouTube videos countless blogs and diaries. Never grown anything before.
VanCplGrows
Wow, 6 weeks veg! Ours started throwing pistils in week 3. I'd wished we'd have gotten more time in veg. You're gonna have a monster there... Very cool! I wonder if it's due to your environment or maybe just phenotype variation? Either way, I'm looking forward to watching your girl flower. Cheers!

Bud_E_growscommented5y
@VanCplGrows, yeah kinda worried she’ll get too tall. Hoping stretch is over. Can’t raise light anymore. Thank you! 😏

Looking great at day 15! Mine are the same age but at least a full node or two smaller. The time-lapse vids are really cool. Cheers!

@VanCplGrows, thanks man, been wondering if I stunted it accidentally.

Thank you very much for sharing a new diary with one of our strains. 😊 We hope you enjoy it. 😋 Sweet smokes, - Apolo

Bud_E_growscommented5y
@Sweet_Seeds, I am sure I will, from the faint scent it’s giving off now. Can tell she’s definitely going to be sweet😊

Great timelapse!
VanCplGrows
Looking really good! She still looks like she's vegging. Much different than ours at 6 weeks. It looks like you'll have a nice sized plant once she's done stretching. Great job!
WitheredEye
How would you describe that scent? I can't put it in words how mine smells
Bud_E_grows
Bud_E_growscommented5y
@WitheredEye, sweet but almost tangy smell.
HazeyBobby
That's one big mama you're growing there .. can't imagine how you're going to flower that one inside a tent 🤦‍♂️😁👍 It's a cracker :)
Bud_E_grows
Did have my timer accidentally change twice this week one day got 20/4 and the next day the devil got a full 24 hrs of light. Noticed they were super droopy and found problem.
Bud_E_grows
I also sleep in the room tent is in, so that’s gotta raise co2 in someway.
