These are my 3rd and 4th autoflowering seeds from RQS. I always start them in their final soil, and as the previous two, these were quite fast too. The Gorilla came out in 4 days, and the Haze Berry in 5 days, so as a beginner, I'm very satisfied. In the first 1 or 2 weeks I never watering the plants, only spraying them with water every day 1 or 2 times. Pests don't like dry environment, but the plants still looking fine, I recommend low humidity to everyone, who had bad experiences with pests.

Well, for the Haze Berry it's still the first week (2 days difference in age), but they're like same. Only difference is in the color, if you check their stems. Only spraying them with tapwater, nothing really special.

Ok, now I'm worried. It's the 4th week, and they have only the first leaves with five fingers, and they don't look too strong... I wanted to start LST on them this week:/ And another thing... Haze Berry just showed its first pistils(?) It looks really strange in this period, I expected more leaves before it happens. The previous plants had the 6th nodes at week4 (check my other diary). Last week we had high temperature (never went above 28°C), and also high humidity (never went above 70%). I grow indoor, my cabinet is not closed properly, so that was the best, I could achieve. I didn't change anything else, small amount of water, same lamp-distance, same light period, BUT I had to open together the veg and the flowering boxes, so now they receive some light from that lamp too, which is a 2100K CFL. I also have Terra Grow, but I didn't wanna use it due to the lack of ph/ec measuring tools. Now, I don't know, what caused this, and how to solve it, please, help!

I mentioned above the situation, please read that, and help me: - is it the heat and humidity? - is it the lamp? - is it the pot? - should I use Terra Grow without measuring ph and ec? - or...? Thank you for your answers!

Based upon stretch from day 21 to day 23 in your diary, it stretched quite a bit. Get the light closer or increase intensity an other way. Do so incrementally and slowly.. wait for plant to show you what the change caused. Get that internodal distance a little shorter. the stem might turn pale and weak shortly, otherwise. as far as other stuff... plant looks healthy.. status quo, otherwise? as long as that new growth green fills in quickly, it's likely nothing.

They don't show real improvement, so I give a try to Terra Grow. Not much, only 2,5ml/l, and let's see. I'm loosing the war against high temperature, sometime it goes above 30, that also can slow down growing, as I've read. It seems, I need to invest in technology, as I've tried a lot of other practice, like the bottle of ice in front of a fan... Haze Berry looks like it's almost flowering, but as you can see, she's very undeveloped for that, never seen such thing in any other diaries. I'm really confused at all. Thinking on topping, but isn't it too late?

Last weeks' horrible temperatures forced me to move the whole 'veg-box' to a better place, so I did it. Now they have almost perfect conditions, and the improvement was visible instantly. Unfortunately the Gorilla made a male preflower, I removed it, hopefully that was the last. Anyway she got a lot of stress, the heat, fimming, but it wasn't really successful, bending, which was, I think the best move, but also a bit stressing, I guess, and also they have some bugs. Haze Berry was topped, but too late, I think, now it seems, she started to build two flowers on the top, and that's it. Last week I started to give them Terra Grow, but she got overfeeded 2nd time now, so I don't push it. Gorilla reacts well for feeding. I'm very curious, it will be a big lesson for me, not hoping in a big crop, but a lot of experience.

Sorry for the empty weeks, nothing really interesting happened. It's the 4th week of flowering, last week I started to feed them with PK 13-14, while I didn't stop with Terra Grow (ikr, but Terra Bloom is still under delivery...), and they instantly started to build up the flowers like crazy. From the prev. weeks: - I tried to top Haze Berry, but it was too late, idk, but finally, as you can see, it started to build two beautyful flowers on top in the center, and another two both sides, and some others. They look very promising, even though the plant itself looks like a mutant. Smell is very characteristic, I'm still trying to describe. - Gorilla was "fimmed", but I really missed it somehow, also it was too late I guess, but it's ok, they are my learning plants. LST is success, now I can control site-dominancy, and it's very flat, gets a lot of lights. Insects are trying hard to destroy, but not a real problem. Treated with neem oil anyway. Few weeks ago I found a male pre-flower, I removed it, but now I discovered a seed in one of the flowers. Fck it, I will smoke it anyway. I'm not expecting much, 5-6 gr/plant, and a massive amount of experiences on nutrients and training.
