koolkat14215 —

koolkat14215 10 plants (aww) at beginning of week 3, and 8 followed behind at week 2. All good besides 3 or 4 in soil idl at all. Will weed out if necessary, with back ups for jic(abd or awc). Plants looking great, even the 3 or 4 in soil idl. Small side but healthy. Were 1 week behind the first group. We'll see on those... Flower switch on Sunday, and the start of week 4.

koolkat14215 4th week starting, switch to Flower/grow mode. No problems as of yet. Temps below 80. Humidity at 50-55%. Moved the light to 24-28 inches from plants. Will move a little closer if the flower mode doesn't burn.

koolkat14215 Start of week 5. Start of Signal Flower Hardener (TDS). Plants are bushier than taller... Topped 2 plants. Bent 3 taller plants(Experiment). Found a White fuzzy but. Picked it off, didn't see others, and sprayed soil and plants with Green Cleaner®️. I used this bug spray before with great success. Highly recommend this for the evil mite, and other infestation and white powder mold. This and a mild Co3 airing does wonders for the bad stuff.

koolkat14215 I have to pull a few plants. The 15 in the 4×4 is too much. Too bushy, not enough space for light penetration. Other than that, everything is healthy. Now to change the light cable to one shorter. Need to raise the light a bit. Photos later. June 10th. Trimmed the girls up a bit😳 June 11th. After the major defol, it helped with light penetration. After being a little droopy, they perked up and need lots of water. After a 10 year absense from farming, I must not be doing too bad. In my day...😅 June 12, LST on a couple plants that are taller than the others. Dusted the soil on plants with Dia. Earth for a few gnats. Had my large exhaust inline fan fall and take out a couple branches. Helpful hint: Use Stage light leashes on heavy stuff like lights and fans. Steel coated cables about 30 inches long. Could save your plants. Leash the stuff 😏You're welcome. June 13. LST yesterday, and already see all those forming buds, standing up like lil' soldiers. Girl Soldiers that is😏 It's my first time LSTing, so I'm excited 😳

koolkat14215 Beginning of week 7 and 45th day. All is healthy. Bud sites lining up little soldiers. Did some tie downs and bending. After the defol past week, plants perked back up after a day of droopy. Alternating nute water with plain water, to prevent nute burn again. Will follow up with pic tomorrow.🤔 June 16: Sucking major water/Juice.

koolkat14215 Week 8, and day 52 from seed. I thought Autos don't get this big?!?! Crazy town! Sucking massive water. No burn, all looks good with the spiked juice😀. Pulled one plant to make room for light penetration, and threw in the hot room, with the clones, babies, and mothers😀.

koolkat14215 Sunday June 28th. The start of week 9(6th of Flower), and day 59 from seed sprout. Plants are taking in massive amounts of water/juice. After a couple weeks of TPS Signal Flower Hardener, and Humboldt Sweet and Sticky, the flowers/sugar leaves are getting very frosty for being only halfway through the flower stage. I stepped down the Advanced Nutrient pH Perfect Trio, down from 10 ml(gal)each, to 5 ml to compensate for the double flower spikes, and the possible nute buildup. Continuing every watering per gal, with 2 ml Silicate, 2 ml AN Cal/Mag, and 2 ml Root Brew. Alternating 600 ppm and 350 ppm, both juiced w/Flower Power. The pH range is 5.8 - 6.4, and temps are at 74 - 78 degrees in the tent. 73 - 75 outside the tent w/AC. Humidity range is 50 - 60%. Sm Dehumidifier inside and out. No Bug problems other than a few gnats, that a little D. Earth dust on the soil will fix. Plants are lush, healthy, and tall for Autos. Height range is 26 - 35 inches. Very pleased with this crop, being my first with LED, and my first farming adventure in over 10 years. I still got the magi. Don't change a thing! Stinky😃

koolkat14215 Week 10 July 5th, and day 66 from seed sprout. All still good. Lush, green, no nute tip burn. Continuing the flower Hardener and S and S juice. Laid down some sticky traps for gnat control, and will follow up with D. Earth when soil is dryer. Buds are stacking up nice, and getting fatter, and with heavy crystals. 3/4 of the girls are a week or two ahead, while the 4 or 5 are genetically a little behind. Looking like I crowded the girls, and might have to crop the top halfs, and finish the bottoms(lot of lower air Buds). Live and learn. It is my first Auto crop, so I didn't know they would grow this big, with one hitting 40 inches. Getting fruity and stinky. Looks like I'm about 2 or 3 weeks from flush and harvest. Probably closer to a month to empty the room for the mother's, clones, and new Autos. Hoping I get to use my plant yo-yos for heavy buds. The waiting is the hardest part😏

koolkat14215 July 12th, Day 73 from seed, and the start of week 11. Just started flushing with Water/Final flush (AN)/Molasses. Tricnomes are fully cloudy with a few turning amber. Half the plants aren't quite ready for flush being a week or two behind, genetically, and continue to juice with Flower Power. Buds are gaining serious weight and girth, with a lovely scent, and colorful. Some of leaves closer to the buds are turning golden. Others purple and red. All set for harvest and cure. Drying racks, hanging drying bag, plenty of jars and humidity packs. Humidity is around 50-55 in and out of tent, with a temp between 75 - 78(AC). Gotta get the plants out, and make room for the new girls. Autos, Clones, Mothers, and new Fems(W/ mainlining try)/. I'm a hog, what can I say. All I have invested, I'm hoping this and the next batch covers the outlay$. Harvest should be day 80-85, or a week and a half 😃

koolkat14215 Week 12, July 19th, and Day 80 from seedling(Auto). 2nd week of final flush, and beginning Flush of the few plants that are a week behind. Fan leaves are turning Orange, while buds are fattening, gaining weight, and really frosty. Still flushing with AN Final Flush, Silicate, and English Blackstrap Molasses. 1 - 2 liters on average to runoff(200 - 400 ppm). My Tap water is 200 ppm, although it is reverse osmosis filtered, my runoff is the best it's going get. Need to get these trimmed and hung soon to make room for the new girls. Probably harvest one a day, till they're all replaced/harvested. 😁 I've learned a lot from this auto grow. Plants topped perform better imho. I left a few alone, the others I topped. While the colas on the non-topped make a larger main bud/cola, the other get a lot of slightly smaller bud, and more count. I need to do more pruning lower areas to prevent the air bud. I'll be doing more lst and my first attempt at mainlining. 7/18 Harvested plant #1 for 269g wet hang weight. 7/19 Plant #2 271g. 7/20 #3 231g. 7/21 #4 171g, 7/22 #5 121g but really frosty dense buds(no air). 7/23 #6 104g. 7/24 124g. Halfway there...Arggggghhh, my AC shit the bed! 88 in my tent😭. My friend is buying me a new one...new AC installed 😃Temps falling into the 70's again, with humidity 50-55%😃 Thanks for checking in...

koolkat14215 Day 87 of this crop. 8 harvested, 6 a couple day behind. Slowly cropping while clearing space for the next crop. #8 weighed in at 300 grams. Frosty, dense buds. Smells yummy, and sticky 😃 Will follow up with more during the week... #9 and 10 weighed in at 350, and 250 respectively. Nice frosty WW buds, and some air unfortunately. Live and learn. Tent 2 I have better expectations. LST, Mainlining, and defoliation 🙄. July 29: #11 257g. 3 more to go, and a fresh tent😏 The tent is empty of the big girls, replaced already😃. Harvest and trim of the last 3 girls tommorow. 3 month from seed to bud. Autos are cool. #12 - 322g #13 - 272g #14

koolkat14215 Buds not as dense as I like. Need a light boost(CHL315), and LED400. My first grow with an Auto variety.
