Start of second week, just started feeding some nutrients the other day. First time trying out auto flowers so we’ll see how it goes. Will be taking outside in a few weeks.
So far it’s been growing a little bit slower than I expected but I think it may have to do with improper storage of the seed. Despite the slow start it seems to be healthy, hopefully this week the growth will start to take off. Lowered light height from 30” to 27.5”.
So far it’s been a really slow start, I think in a week I will transfer into a much larger pot when the weather is a bit better outdoors and hopefully things will get a bit better.
First signs of flowering started a few days ago. A bit smaller than I was hoping for but considering the size of pot she started in I can’t complain. Transplanted to a 1.5gal pot yesterday as well as starting first bloom phase feeding.
Second week of flowering. Pretty happy with the size of her considering the size of the pot it was in for most of veg. Bud sites are looking better and better. Really nice glossy dark green leaves as well.
Pretty happy with the size of her so far and the bud sites are looking pretty good however having some issues with the leaves. I’m guessing some type of deficiency? I’ve only fed her once the entire grow so I don’t think I over fed (the feeding was also a fraction of a regular feed). Any tips/ advice would be very helpful, thanks!
Any idea what problem I’m having with my plant/leaves? I’m guessing some type of deficiency because I’ve only fed once and it was a few weeks ago. (Check photos in most recent week). Any advice/ tips would be awesome, thanks!
this is definitely overfeeding and not a deficiency... the dark green leaves indicate too much nitrogen..
you said you only fed her once in the entire grow, which could still be a bit too much, in case of pre-fertilized soil..
also during the mid-to-late flowering phase the plant doesn't need much nitrogen anymore (compared to the veg-phase, or the beginning of the stretch phase in early bloom)
Given you grow on soil, i suggest reading this about fertilization: https://www.mandalaseeds.com/Guides/Fertilizing-Smart-Guide even when it might not really apply directly, when you use pre-fertilized soil, however the pre-fertilization might still be too strong for your specific environment.
Any suggestions on how I can increase the quality/size of the bud? First time growing autos so any tips would be great. I’ve also only been watering to try to help with the excess nuts in the soil.
don't judge them yet.
the only thing you can do is provid emore light. there is such a thing as too much light.
~100 umol/s per 1 sq. ft. is toward upper end without pumping in CO2. don't go by watts as that's silly. if the light doesn't provide this spec, good chance it's a crappy light.
But, like i said at the top... give it some time. those will ripen a lot more than you think right now. get worried if that whispy stuff doesn't populate a good stretch of stem at top... after that it takes forever and a day to ripen when you look at it everyday.
Pretty happy with how she’s looking so far. I’ve been watering a bit more than usual to try to help with the excess nuts in the soil and it seems to be working. Fed her a little bit of bud candy and big bud (both no nitrogen) today so we’ll see how she reacts to it in the next few days.
Really happy with how the buds are starting to look, all are starting to dense up thick, some purple colouring also starting to come in. Moved plant along with others into a larger tent for the rest of the grow.
Really happy with how she’s looking, massive nugs for the size of the plant and really caked in crystal. Nice dark colours starting to come in as well. Was hoping the nugs would dense up a bit more but I’m happy with how they’re coming along. Another 2 weeks or so and it’s time for harvest!
Can’t wait to harvest this one.. buds are starting to get really sticky and some really nice colours with lots of crystal. Will probably give another 2 weeks until harvest. Hoping to get a half oz from her but I’ll be happy with atleast 7grams for the size lol.
Can’t get over the buds on this one. Couple more days and I’ll be cutting it down! Really strong smell coming from it and the buds have been getting crazy sticky as well.
