Day 77. Slow going still. The monster plants pistils are starting to go amber and the other 2 seems to be catching up. I suspect I'm still a couple weeks out and likely more on at least one plant (back left corner). The pistils on that plant are 3x thicker than the other 2 flowering. They have a blue hue to them and the bud sites are super leafy. All trichomes are still clear.
The photo-auto is now 43" tall. I got some root powder and will take clones next week to put under a old T5 aquarium light. I think I'll veg those out and flower the "mother". If it turns out to be a good plant, the clones should be ready to flower when the mother is done. This will work in perfect world, but I suspect this process will be sketchy and completely unreliable.
This kind of sucks still. I should be into my dry and cure. The crispy leaves worry me too, making for a harsh smoke. RQS claims this strain is "perfect for beginners" and "ideal for indoors". In this batch of seeds, this is simply false. You'll need a tent/area over 6ft tall and I can't imagine 4 plants (same strain) that require vastly different care is good for anybody, let alone a beginner.
Fingers still crossed....
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 👍
