1st week of LST. Slight defoliation (more like pruning). Mixing nutes in 1L, but only one feeding .5L/24 hr. + 1g/L Recharge, on 1 day of week 4. Reduced minimum RH from 68% to 63%

Equalized the Part A & B and gave a full 1L. Looks like he didn't like something about it. Will back off and just give plain water for a day or 2 and see the response. Very bushy. Will continue minimal undergrowth pruning.

1st full week of 1L/24h, will bump to 1.25L or 1.5L. I was very inconsistent with nutes. Hoping this week will be ok for a 50-50 mix of Mega Crop A & B. Did another light round of Recharge. Added some epsom Salt to correct Mag deficiency over 2 feedings. Watering 1L twice a day. Lots of drinking and stretching this week.

I would love to hear some thoughts if anyone thinks there is a nute excesses or deficiency this week. They don't look as green as I think they should. Thanks.

Hey Growmie, This looks like a magnesium deficiency which is normally caused by improper ph. Correct the ph and use magnesium supplements to correct this issue. Hopefully, this answered your question and remember ..."Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time"

Increased GN Part A & B. Drinking a lot. 1.6L/day + an extra L when it feels light. I thinks it's in flower or at least pre-flower maybe. I did more minimal-moderate pruning. Trying to be more consistant with 5.8 ph.

Was more consistent with PH last week at 5.8. Watering 1L 2x/24hr. Moderate pruning at bottom 1/3 of plant. Most pruning of any week. Won't do much again since in flower. Getting too tall for the space. Should have started LST earlier and more aggressively. Flipped to 12-12 to begin Week 9.

Tent has run out of head space and the main cola damaged before I moved the light. Light distance is a high as it can go now, so not sure how the main cola will fare if it reaches again. If harvest/dry/cure goes well and I decide to a 2nd grow, I will need to invest in a larger tent. OR I might try more aggresive LST and topping. This 1st grow is kinda on the cheap. Added 1 dose of Ep Salt and 1 dose of ReCharge + 4.9mL (1tsp) of molasses for the week. Upping PH to 6.0-6.2 range for flower as my research indicated.

Based on the heaviness of the pot, I only needed to give 1L of water per day. Cut off a couple of branches that won't get the light it need to be productive.

Week in Flush. Main cola had 3 heads to it and were bunched together causing mold. Had to cut out one of the heads.

Grow_With_Mecommentedweek 125 years ago

I'm about to start a new grow with this exact plant (Seedsman Northern Lights auto-grow), and have a few questions about your experience with it: -> how tall are your plants now? -> did you start with the 12/12 hr. schedule right from the start? -> how many plants are you growing in the 2 gal pot? -> any other advice or insights on growing this particular strain (I'm doing mine in soil) I'm a complete newbie at growing. so any and all insights are appreciated. Thanks.

@Grow_With_Me, This is my first grow. I have 1 plant in a 2 gal pot w/coco. It's about 36" tall (excluding height of pot) now and has been for about the last 2 weeks or so. I did some Low Stress Training to keep the plant short, but was very hesitant since it was my first time. I think I only shortened it by couple inches. I did 18/6 light from seed until flowering around week 7 when I flipped to 12/12. I'll repeat the guidance of experienced growers I've read...Don't stress over the grow, just have fun and get your 1st grow behind you. I found rollitup.org forum and YouTube to be a good resources. The amount of info and opinion is overwhelming, but I just picked out the info that made sense to me and could be applied my situation. Good Luck!

Curious I’ve hear to let the light stay 18/6 for flower, did it help the buds on 12/12
