1st Auto Grow - Girls Scout Cookies

eightleggeddj Girl Scout Cookies doing well, biggest and quickest of the 3 seeds I planted. Seed casing is stuck on the main stem but I'll see if it falls off before intervening.

eightleggeddj She’s growing lovely, biggest of the three girls so far 👍, got them into a nice 4 day wet dry cycle already so I’m hoping for lots of root growth. Watered so far with Ecothrive Biosys. Was going to water yesterday but pots aren’t light enough for now. May give a 1/4 strength feed as surprisingly the 1st node leaves are fading.

eightleggeddj Made the good lady wait 8 days until she told me she needed a watering, pot was nice and light. Haven’t had to add any grow nutes yet as the soil is doing a good job so far. She exploded over night after yesterday’s water, 4th true node shot up and I could top her now but I’m not going to on my first auto grow, just some leaf tucking and lst and as little stress as possible for now. 😀 Update Day 20 - Shes getting thirsty, watered with Magne Cal+ and Biosilicon, decided to try some light bondage 😀

eightleggeddj She was the first to go into preflower but not stretching much, sat at roughly 15 inches for the last few days. I was thinking they needed their first feed as both plants were fading a little, then they promptly dumped as much green as possible that day! Fed now and happy, should green up again soon. Was hoping this would stretch well like the LSD 25 but she seems to be a bit of a squat pheno at the moment, hopefully nice and chunky!

eightleggeddj She’s a short one but she’s gonna be a fattie... am I allowed to say that? 😂 Had a day where she lost a lot of colour, put a stop to it but a few leaves were too far gone, anywhoo she’s growing up but very slowly however the bud she’s starting to pile on is hopefully going to look tremendous. 👌

eightleggeddj Had to flush as I’m not happy with the soil, locked out all my plants and have since read the ph of the soil drops dramatically in flower. Haven’t got a ph meter but I think I’ll look at another soil next time, jeez B&Q verve was better than this! She’s looking good considering she needed the flush, packing on big rock hard colas, shame it’s only a small plant, can’t wait to try her. Trichromes are all milky and spotted a few dark ones, won’t be long now. I’m convinced the 24 hour light schedule makes them advance quicker than a day/night schedule. She’s going to be ready pretty much about the breeders date if not before! 😀

eightleggeddj She is pretty much done. It will be 8 weeks tomorrow and she is rock solid, fully cloudy with quite a few amber trichs. I would love to see how far I could take her as although small she has piled on the bud and it’s like rock 😀 I would love to take her a bit further, but I need some medicine soon so she may accidentally lose a small limb 😬 That said the ambers are appearing fast so I don’t want to wait too long. Reckon the 24 hr lighting does a lot for growth times when you factor in the extra hours of light over the course of the grow it does make sense to me. I will keep a close eye on her but my scissor hand is getting twitchy! 😂

eightleggeddj Completely done on week 8, a joy to grow and the buds are like granite!
