Lst for each plant on 1st day of week 4. Broke a 2ndary branch on LSD 2. However I feel like they liked it. In the space of 8/9 hours they want back to some normal keeping growing fast and strong.
lst adjustments 2nd and 3rd days. Broke another 2ndary branch on LSD 2 again ....Fourth day of week 4 lst addjus
tments too :) Idem day 5 !
No lst on day 6 but scrog installation: No time to take pictures before "night". uninstalled scrog on day 7 after reading it's not adapted for autoflos.
Flowering started in the middle of last week, maybe a few days earlier when it started to stretch. The plants's size easily doubled in the space of 8-10 days.
On day 38, I changed the MH 400w for the HPS 600 W and connected the carbon filter to the cool tube.
On day 39: Exhale CO2 bag. T° :25,9°C Hygro: 49 g/m3. Flowers are slowly coming out
On day 40 purchased something to lower humidity that rose up. To take full advantage of CO2, I should not extract while lights are on but then... T° rises too much. It has 3 speeds so I now run it on 1st speed. No intraction at all but a small extraction and ventilation to keep things under 30°C+. It works for now. When light are off, I open the tent apertures and turn the extractor back on its full capacity to renew quickly the air inside.
Day 41: Struggling to keep hygro under 60 %... Plants keep on growing fast and flowers are slowly coming out.
Day 42: Installed a programable deshumidifier to stay in the limits of 60 % while using CO2 from a bag in a sealed room.
Day 45 : started to add Bio technology Boost + ( every time now, in combination with the Auto A+B for one more week) and Bloom H (foliar 1 or twice until the end of the session).
Day 46: The weak LSD has been removed from the growth space
Day 47: Black soap + neem (some guys like the plants too much :) )
T° is announced to rise by 10°C within the next days.
Day 48: Black soap+neem, 2nd part, focusing under the leaves. Everything looks clean. Starting to wonder if it's still going to grow more in height...I don't have that much space left for dozens of centimers. Would be nice to remain in a <= 1 m range.
I had all the girls out in the kitchen for the 2nd black soap/neem oil seance: A nice little forest ! :)
Day 49: Add Inducor R and inctuor F - foliar- ( both only twice during floration): with bloom H =>increase trichomes's number/size and bud size. We'll see..
Day 50: Summer... heat is rising.
Day 51: Replace 600 w hps with a 400 one.
Day 63 :The buds are getting bigger as I was staring to worry about it. 3 and 4 days ago, I cut a lot of small branches at the plants's bottoms in order to redirect the work on main ones.
Day 64: slowly growing. Has a look at the trichomes with a microsocope: 100 % clear. I guess +/- 2 weeks before harvesting.
I'll start flushing next week.
Day 69: Buds are slowly getting denser. Trichomes have grown a lot. They're 80% milky. Tomorrow i'll start flushing for the two next weeks.
Day 70: Flushing started. Smell is here.
Day 71: Flushing started yesterday. The next 6 days should be ok but the last week is unfortunately going to be very hot.
Day 73: Flushed each plant separately in the bathtub until the water coming out was clear and then good watering with clear water with ajusted pH, cleaning solutions and Elycitor. It took more or less 3 times the pot's size in water (+/- 35 liters) for each plant to have clear water coming out from the bottom of the pots. I think that watering only as usually would not be enough to flush correctly (at the best 5/6 watering before cutting meaning +/- 10 liters at the most. The plants are going to eat using what they stocked, get and look old and taste and flavour should increase a lot or at least be "natural" :).
It took a few hours but I'm happy it's done !
Day 77: First watering since day 7. Second week of flushing starts tomorrow
Day 78: 2 phenotypes for the lsd auto (but not the purple one).
2 plants( one of each phenotypes)are more advanced. Each of the four plants has a slightly different/distinctive smell. Lots of citrus, sweet chewing gum, earth.
Cheese xxl has a different smell, very sweet and deep. I cut a cheese top branch to test it: after curing, 14,5 g of wet buds. It's time to test the wedryer :)
Day 79: Up to 32,4 ° C in the tent today, most of day above 28°C. Hopefully, Elycitor and CO2 help the plants to stand the heat...
Day 80: 2 Cheese and 1 LSD harvested= > 158 g of wet buds for the 2 Cheese xxl and 205 g for the LSD + 88 g of trim for the 3 plants.
A few more days for the 3 LSD left which are bigger and should give more.
Day 82: Cheeses and 1st lsd are still drying. I'll give another 3/5 days to the remaining LSD as buds are still changing.
Day 83: 2 more LSD harvested: 215 and 225 g of wet buds + 82 g of trim. Last LSD not quiet ready yet
The harvest isn't that terrific (20 g / plant).. But conditions (especially heat) haven't been optimal and it grew "in the shadows" of the LSD's auto
I like very much the plant smell ! It's getting better everyday.
Taste is nice and improving everyday.
Very relaxing.
Day 86: The smell is nice now. Lots of pistils still green, same for leafs. With microscope, I can see lots of still translucide trichomes.
It's still not ready yet for harvest.
Day 91: Leafs are now quickly turning yellow. Trichomes say it's... not ready yet. That said, it is now very hot: 38¨C today, 36° yesterday and the same for the next 4 days: 32/33° in the tent. Elycitor and CO2 seem to help a lot but it doesn't prevent trichomes from "evaporation".. From the smoke tests I did with what is already harvested the plant will be cropped within the next 3 days.
Very strong, resistant and productive plant !
5/5 seeds germinated ( one didn't develop well enough and I had to cut it during the stretch).
Reacts very well to lst. Didn't turn hermaphroditic despite I cut branches at diiferent stages of growth and flo and- especially- despite several big heat episodes. At the end I have at least 2 phenotypes. And plants gave each from 180 g up to 340 g of wet buds.
LSD 1/2/3 gave 180+215+225= 620 g of wet buds. After drying: 132 g of dry buds.
LSD 4 gave 340 g of wet buds , 72,8 g of dry buds and 61 g of trim. Total yeld: 205 g dry buds+ 45 g trim.
Rather happy for a 1st grow..with autoflos, indoor... and finally only 400W during most of flo. And It can be much better for sure.
I could only test 3 plants out of 4. It's better everyday.. :) Each plant has a different smell and taste. Effects are 1st relaxing almost immediatly then a warm high with physical buzz leaving you in a rather creative, dreamy state for a good while.
Overall all good despite the number of phenos (at least 2) and a non homogeneous production ( 180g min / 340 g max).
I will grow it again.
Blowing me out of the water, I'm literally a month behind you as I enter day 35, I think I will be vegging another month, my bad for oding them on Protek early on, recovering & back feeding now at least & all are still alive. lol
@@Weedelfe, Oh shit I overlooked that these are autos, I thought they looked different, Barney's bred the original photo LSD plants that I assume mine are family to, anyhow I don't feel so bad, through behind schedule, I just fed for the second time yesterday & they are already showing a fair bit of improvement.
@Naturalist,1 of my 5 lsd auto started to turn yellow on week 2 or 3 and i couldn't manage to have it back on its feet despite adding Fe, cleaning, changing soil etc.. All your plants now look good.
@Naturalist,Good that you are not growing an autoflo LSD. It looks like your plants recovered and they should grow nicely with an additional 3/4 weeks.
Hey! how are you doing?
Already flushing? I feel mine will take a little longer, let's see..
your plants looks really nice, congrats! cutting next week?
@@Weedelfe, Hello, all good here, thank you!
Exactly, that was my doubt too, I was expecting them to be ready by now that I'm starting week 11..
Thats a good plan you have, sounds fantastic!
Hopefully we'll have good crops as it's passed the time. I only expect good results now after all.
I'll give it another week and I'll start flushing from next week, when it's about 10/15 days to crop.
Trying to get one, but in this country is hard to get anything passed the customs in less than a month. Now with the pandemics...mamma mia I'll try and use my macro lens on the camera. Not the best, but will help. the digital microscope will be used on the nex grow I think
@TheGourmetWeed,
Hey Gourmet ! I'm fine thank you. How are you doing ?
Yes, after lots of hesitations I started flushing on day 70:
They say ready in 65-70 days from seed but mine aren't ready after 73 days. ( 1st day germinated seed was put in earth was my day 1).
Looking at other LSD auto diaries, most of them took more than 10 weeks so I didn't worry too much. That said, I can see some leaves turning yellow, plants don't grow since a while only flowers (not even sure on the last days), trichomes are milky, plants need less water ,...I went a little too hard with nutriments 10 days ago and I want 2 good weeks of flushing.
So I started it betting the plants will be ready for harvest in now...11 days.
If it's not ready yet, I'll wait flushing always
If it's ready before, I'll have to flush "stronger" (my bathtub and +/- 35 l of water per plant once or twice before harvest). For now, only stoped fertilizers and I'm watering as usually adding a flushing solution to my Ph 6,2 clear water. I also keep on adding Elycitor for the soil and to help with heat.
I saw your LSD auto. I think that you are going to be very happy ! :)
I think it is not ready yet. Your buds( there are lots of them) are not finished with growing and they are going to be still bigger and you are going to be very happy ! :)
I'd say another 3 weeks + including flushing.
Do you have something to check trichomes ?
@@Weedelfe, going well thanks, I'm very happy with the genetics of this strain. 100% Germination ratio, likes soil, nutrients and plenty of light and fresh air ehehe
Happy grows 👊
@TheGourmetWeed,Hey ! Thank you :) I had a look at your babes and read that you were thinking of toping them ?
I would rather use lst in order to avoid stressing them too much.
@TheGourmetWeed, Hi Gourmet ! I'm fine thank you. How are you ?
Summer is here.. 32°+ outside today and more to come within the next days. I have to do without air conditioning... we'll see.. !
I'm looking for more pics of your plants.. :)
Have a great week !
@TheGourmetWeed,Thank you The Gourmet !Wiyjin a week , temperature is going to raise a lot here. I have my fingers cossed for the ned of the session.
Your plants look beautiful too. I had a look yesterday and they're growing fast now ! Congratulations !
Weedelfe
