Day 56. They are all in flower now but still haven't went full on bloom, except the Monster....who is ever hungry. The 3 others finished their stretching and are about a foot shorter than the Monster plant. This is presenting an issue of sorts. I got a bit of light burn on the big plant (40" tall) because it was about 10" away, so I've raised my light up about as far as it can go on 6ft. tent. So, the Monster is now about 14" away and the rest are about 24", quite a difference for flowering. The small plants may suffer a bit because of the distance away from appropriate PAR levels. They all seem healthy, the stunted one has caught up in stretching. Some nutrient tip burn, but the seem to want to be over-fed: saggy, furled between feedings.
The Ghetto SCRoG is a success so far, I feel like I would've had to pull the large plant without doing it (insane!?!). A nice(ish) even canopy exists with the Monster ever looming in the back, right corner. This truly is a FULL "meter squared" of growing tops, per manufacturer yield standard. Its all trimmed up/lollipopped, so hopefully this is the downhill part. The day temps are a bit higher and I might open a window up to cool them off... @NewfieFarmer just harvested his RQS NLA at around 13 weeks, I suspect mine is the same schedule.
Food for thought. Feeding these girls is a pain with the SCRoGing. Its difficult to get to the coco surface to water. When the buds come in full effect, this will be even more tedious. I have rigged up my one gallon can (see pic) with a 2ft. piece of 16/22 aquarium hose (I hope my coral don't mind). This allows me to pour while directing the stream. Sort of like taking a wizz......
Any suggestions on how to better water, SCRoG, grow is always welcome. Thanks for reading!
This is the most unpredictable auto flowers I've ever had. It will be 50 days soon and only preflower on one plant. Ive used a 12/12 light schedule on autos before. Should I try this on these plants? If, so keep it 12/12 untill the end? No turning back to 20/4 when they go?
I see a trained Plant in Preflowers. There is no Need to Keep 12/12 on her. She will go into full Flower soon, and love the Minimum of 18 Hours. I see you topped and trained the Plant, that will be the reason for alittle later Flower than usually, but shes in the " timewindow" to Flower. No reason to be sad, she just does what she can do. If you trrain those Plants you delay her alittle. But Training and topping bring her a open canopy with some nicely exposed budsites
Day 70 and I have a plant that has preflower stretched for almost 4 weeks now. No bud sites or pistils really and is massive. 4 auto seeds, same strain. All crazy different, all very different needs. Pull it, keep it, defoliate hand sized leaves, 12/12? Grows 2close to light
hi Bezzy@, your plant should not be automatic, some phenotypes of some strains of automatic plants show stability problems and are not autos, they are feminized. you will have to change to 12h / 12h for it to start flowering. in order not to harm the other automatic plants wait until they have the best shaped and fattest buds and put on 12/12 the last 2-3 weeks. I already finished the last weeks of several automatic plants at 12h / 12h and I never felt harmed in the harvest for that. good luck mate 👍
Looks like you're gonna have a nice crop there!
Same thing happened to me with the uneven growth. It was just uncontrollable! Even with wire!
I got a monster too, and it's fantastic!
This strain is THE BEST!
Greetings from Russia! Your plants are simply magnificent! Develop in the same spirit! If you are interested in following the adventures of weed in Russia, subscribe to my diary
Fair to say the genetics of RQS Nl has gone a bit haywire, having the same issues in my grow with 2 completly different looking plants 😂 shame as the small one is a little beauty, but the tall plant is becoming a monster 😂 all good fun, keep up the good work 👍
