Day 35-42 (June 4th - June 11th)
(Day 36) After it stops raining I’m going to amend some 2 gallon pots and get some of these clones planted.
Tuna recovered nicely from topping. The wind keeps impaling the slurricane leaves on the mini garden stakes.
If everything goes to plan, I will be transplanting all the slurricanes and tunas into 5 gallon fabric pots on the 21st. If they recover nicely I will flip them on the 30th.
(Day 37) It’s looking like I fucked these autos up pretty bad with the hot soil mix and low night temps. It was a dumb idea to sow directly into amended soil. I guess I’ll just leave them and see if they can push through the nutes.
The 4 meatbreaths I’m going to transplant into 3 gallon smart pots in a few days. They won’t be transplanted into their final containers until the 10th of next month.
(Day 39) God I wish this rain would fuck off soon. I want to get some of these clones transplanted but can’t in the rain. Forecast says sun for the next few days then more goddamn rain.
None of these plants are liking these low night temps. It’s currently 6 degrees (42f) which is guaranteed stunting. Zone 3 problems..... I honestly should have waited a little bit before planting the autos too.
(Day 41) Weather finally let up. Got all of these clones and meatbreath’s in their new homes and looking happy.
(Day 42) The gelato 33 autos are definitely doing better than all the rest for some reason. Grapefruit, Dr seedsman and exodus cheese haven’t even pushed their second set of leaves yet. Their containers are definitely too hot for seedlings but I will just leave them and hope they recover. Maybe the gelatos are just heavier feeders. Next year I’m going to establish the autos in coco before I put them outside. Or just start them outside in coco and transplant.
Anyone here have experience growing an auto that’s been severely stunted?
I direct sowed into a rich soil and have had very little growth in the last 3 weeks.
Will a stunted auto start flowering once it reaches a certain height? Or will I have 5 inch tall dwarf plants?
In my early growing days i had a few stunted due to lack of knowledge and too much feed etc. In my experience once its stunted that bad at week 6 sad to say i dont think you will get much from it at all. time will tell ..
