No experience with autos but it looks like these ladies are starting their flowering period. I started bloom nutrients at day 28. One plant is growing a little faster than the other and I did some defoliation and more lst on the bigger one at the start of this week, the second plants defoliation and lst will follow as soon as it catches up. Still watering when soil goes dry, full strength bloom nutrients and lights still 20/4.
Looking forward to seeing pics. I just set up a account and I'm also about to grow my first auto flower. I've been growing for over 25 yrs but never auto. I just ordered zkittles auto, Gelato OG, GSC Auto, candy kush auto, sucker punch auto , and Gorilla Zkittles auto. I ordered 5 of each strain and plan on starting grow indoors and outdoors. I've got a bigger space and I'm still sold on old fashion 600w HPS , but I agree with smaller grow LEDs seam to be the ticket! I'm gonna keep up with your grow to see how it turns out but I've done a ton of reasearch one thing I noticed when your plants were seedlings you should try no Nuets at all just water and root stim and folic and humid until second or third sets come out. Everything I've read auto like super low Nuets I've even been looking into Bio nova they have a pre-mix
I guess with autos there's no forgiveness in veg. I thought your plants looked a little shocked but was pretty impressed by difference between day 28 and day 34 looks like there taking off. Maybe I'm wrong but I want the same info about my grow hopefully we will be able to improve each other's outcome!! One thing I've learned in 25 yrs is you never learn enough and absorb all advice from beginners to expert. Hell I failed at growing the first 15 yrs in my own opinion look forward to more chats. Peace. Dr.GT73
@DrGreenthumb73, Zkittles is an insane plant! She will be your favorite. I'm growing her now with a BB from 420 also. Mines over 2ft and she's been topped. This strain loves light! Drinks like an alcoholic. But be wary of nitrogen after preflower. She will nute burn fast. I bought a product called Flower Fuel to fix it. NPK of 1-34-32. The 2 rating I was giving was burning her but I also have slow release nitrogen in my soil. Just watch those tips and cut back immediately when ya see burn. Otherwise the buds are FREAKING HUGE!!!
@Johnnyronco,
I have the same thoughts🤔.. also got a punch if AutoSeeds ordered and want to play with them in the next round. I think everything is dependent on a perfect veg, if so I think it's a possible way to train Autos. But I'm just smartass now. Also have to see how everything works. Just saw at Mrs_Larimars Club Riot Diaries that she topped the Autos on day 11.... 🤯🤯
Good luck anyways, cheerz 🤘Oim.
@@@OimRausch, well so far I’ve been trying to stretch it out! So small and bushy with no stretch. It’s hard to get light to all the bud sites so I basically laid the main stem down horizontally with the soil and lots of tying the branches to separate them. We will have to see how they turn out but I’m already thinking of mainlining or topping a couple autos after. I have a bunch of auto seeds so I think I will play with them for the next grow. People say you shouldn’t top autos but why not give it a try right?
Excellent diary, great job, congrats. Smoke sweet my friend!💚
A question;
Which is the size (4 grams or 8 grams}) of boveda's pack, you used?
Thank for your reply🙏
