Starting my first Autoflower strain NYC Diesel feminised. this will be my second diary on here I will be growing 6 from seed at this point they have soaked in non chlorinated water in the dark around 70 degrees for 24 hours then transferred to a neutral make up removal pad (I use instead of paper towel) soaked in the water they sat in and capped with a second china tea plate on top then placed in ~ 77 degree environment in the dark
my other diary is a "Early Miss" strain auto fem
that have a 2 week jump on these but they will all end up in the tent together till harvest
5 out of the 6 seeds made it up to a height of 1- 2 inches by the end of week
just misted them with 6.3 PH dechorionized water I would count the mist pumps of starting with 3 sprays near base
up to 15 sprays to soil per plant
they are not getting leggy and I switched from 4 - 1.5 inches from CFL
humidity high with a cover varying the spinner vent on top to control
%
kept wet and high a lot
at end o f this week
I document my week at week end
I will pot up next week.
1 of the five is a little runty but good color and sturdy stems
I add a ight breeze for half the day on them so they twitch a bit to strengthen stems
switched from jus mist spraying them to adding ~ 150 ml per plant per day and topical misting
3x a day as well added sturdy stalk nutrient as well
NYC diesel all 5 went from green potter cup to 12 liter / (3 Gal)
soft and hard pots
into Promix HP
with 20 % Kryptonite living soil mixed in
gave them a first feeding of nutes.
all are doing well but runt is still a runt I think this might have been the one that tapped right out of its shell (see first week)
the temperatures and humidity in spring here are everywhere and trying to keep tent around 45% humidity and 70 - 85
degrees its tough in a 70 year old house
but I keep it within a reasonable window. in addition to up potting them and nutes and amended soil they moved into the main tent and out of the T5 incubation chamber.
expecting big growth this week
Big growth this week
heights vary from 5- 8 inches
I bring them outside for several hours in full sun as a bonus so my grow doesn't accurately support tent only growth but hey the sun
rules and my girls get as much as I can give them.
no indication of male or hermy
but its early water intake has increased I will top the biggest one today
and see the differences
Filling in this week and bud sites apparent. little smell starting topped the tallest one. introduced Terpenator to the feed. Lots of outdoor sun this week because I'm on afternoons
hot during week
then cooled down
this week is a lot of stretching 3/5 are clearly flowering
the other 2 are a little behind
quite surprised at the variances in the plants all grown from the same seed pack at the same time only difference is three are in 5 gallon
plastic pots and 2 are 3 gallon felt pots added support ties / posts and clips.
they have got approx. 4 hours of sun each day this week and really took to it . The runt is doing well short with stalky and great leave structure and color
the ones in felt pots are not drinking as much water
Started them on bloom nutrients for flowering
they are 4/5 in flower the last one and its the tallest one
has pre flowers but is behind for sure .
i have had them out in sun approx. 3 hrs. / day then back in tent
adjusted distance to light 20 about 20" on average
water consumption
has clearly increased
since flower
smell starting stronger but not "strong "
yet
Hot sticky sunny week again and they got outside full sun for about 6 hours every day except 2
smell getting strong
drinking almost 2 L of water a day
1 is still not in flower and I'm almost thinking its another strain they mixed up in shipping it has 9 point skinny leaves and the rest have 5 points and darker and fatter leaves.
they got a good rain soaking also one day
