Hi, and welcome to my new diary! This time I would like to grow more than 1 plant so I spent some more seeds to germinate. I am again far away from providing ideal conditions for my plant(s): this time the weather temperature is so hot, that the plants have to stand 29-31'C and they are obviously feeling bad. Hopefully they will recover.

During week # 3 I understood that I have stressed the plants seriously again :( They almost stopped growing and looked very "sad" with leaves looking down. I was so sad and depressed that had no wish to take any pictures. This week is empty because of the way how helpless it felt. I thought of cutting the plants and starting a new grow cycle...

As soon as day temperature has fallen to 28'C the plants have stabilized it's growth and appearance. I plan to finish this grow to answer the question: How a 2-week heat stress may affect the harvest :)

So good so far :) Well, after 2 weeks of Dubai season in my box (up to +32'C) the current +28'C seems to work pretty nice, as the plants look "green" and healthy IMHO. At the same time I have noticed they are a bit stretched and do not have a lot leaves - any confident advice here is appreciated.

I can't believe my eyes, the plants I wanted to cut recovered so well, especially if you look at the big one 😎 Comparing my current and previous grow cycles, I can say that most likely heat stress affects autoflowers lesser than topping😄

Looking good :) The middle one is my best plant ever. Also i made some bending to the bottom kolas, so they can get more light. At this stage it is easy to distinguish the difference between strains.

This week has proven I need to change the nutrients. It is great to use ready-made complexes, but in a situation like I have (it is visually clear 2 out of 3 plants are lacking of N), I need separate nutrients in order to increase the amounts of specific nutrient but not the A or B liquid. The big plant looks great, it has relatively many yields. The other two plants changed and despite a lot of yellow leaves, they look different and I am not sure now these are the same strain. Will definitely dry them and store separately to feel the difference.

The right one looks over-fertilated :( So I will probably cut her earlier. Not sure if it is recommended, but I feel it should work. The middle one is sick! :) Especially considering the high temp stress they all suffered at early days. 😋

Harvest for the right one. Number 2 is still my very best and favorite LOL😬

Both AK-47 are harvested. Waiting for the thickest one to get ready. She is insane, very solid with thick buds. Hopefully it will feel as it looks :)

Well, this time I got appx 100 gramms from 3 plants, which is much better than my previous experience. I am learning and getting more clear understanding of how not to make those crucial mistakes.
