This is my first time growing indoors. What we have here is a happy little seed from Dr. Kripplings called White Rush Auto. It was a freebie. I have virtually no info on it. So she will be grown in a 5gal smart pot with the Mephisto amendment. She popped in less than 24hrs. She was placed in a wet Root Riot and left to sprout. Then was placed in a 1/2gal pot ( with Roots Original soil and a tiny bit of worm castings) and put under 18 hour light schedule. Very light watering mainly with a spray bottle to keep things humid.
My little White Rush Auto is doing very well. She is finally growing into her pot. Very healthy green in the leaves and very sturdy stock/stem for such a little plant. I will be starting LST some time in the next few days. I want her a little taller. Watering has been a bit of a challenge but i have it under control now.
I am using coconut water as my nutrients (Old friend told me it works well). I took a fresh coconut, ripped the meat out of it and blended it with purified water and strained it with cheese cloth. Then i feed my plants with the strained water/milk. I also moved the lights to 24in. a few days ago.
Filtered water only and one Half gallon of compost tea. She is nice and frosty, sticky and smelly. I am in love. She has been a pure pleasure to grow. Cant wait to try her.
I have been super busy and have not been keeping up with my journal. I will update again when i have the time. But here she is at day 74 on 4-22. So i have been checking her trichomes and about 80-90% are cloudy but i still have plenty of white hairs. I am not sure if i should harvest at the 75day mark like Dr. Kripplings strain info says or wait a bit and see what happens. She smells like sweet sweet candy and is almost gooey. So happy.
This plant is amazing. I did very little to care for her. I feel if i had started the seed in the pot she was to finish in, she would have done even better. I will also NOT do LST next time just to get a reference. She smells like citrus candy and has dense little colas. I am loooking forward to smoking her. I will update when i try her. Still a couple weeks of cure left. I did not weigh her wet. And i will weigh her dry after the cure.
Growdiaries.com rocks along with all the people on this site. So much knowledge and help in this community. I highly recommend this strain from Dr.Kripplings.
I apologize in advance for the pictures not being exactly to the week labeled.
Hey dude, Your plant looks like it's coming along nicley👍🏼 here to offer you some free advice. I'm going to be honest, not being arrogant or sarcastic when I say this.
Your friend may be a pro grower for all I know but you are not him. If he can't physically see your plant multiple times a day then he really cannot help you like you need. Spend some time doing research, It's better to have an idea of what issues you may run into before you run into them.
I'm no Pro but first thing I can point out this that the pot you're growing in is far too small, you need to transplant into at least a 3 gal if you want anything over 7 grams of Bud. If you were already intending on transplanting then you should know it's better to start autos in the pot they'll finish in. Any restriction of the roots will slow growth. If you need any advice id be happy to offer my opinion 👍🏼✌️🏻️
@JUNGLE_B4RNS, not in my soil it doesn't😜 providing you use a good soil with PH buffer. Which he is, plus the Mephisto amendments, too much PH up or down and chemical nutrients with 0 carbohydrate or enzymes will gradually kill the micro organisms and health of the soil. Which is it isn't beneficial to PH your water, if it comes out of the tap at 5-7 your fine. If it comes out lower or higher than that a slight adjustment either way is fine. If you use to much PH adjustment or chemical nutes; you risk PH lockout. The soil can only buffer the PH so much. Using too much acid or alkaline reduces its effectiveness.
Iv had a look through your grows numerous times I can see you have no issues in growing the dankest bud and most beautiful plants.✌️🏻️
@Doomsday, All nutrients are the same, the most important thing is to know what is inside your nootz , how to use them and when to use them...
I strongly suggest you start by those episodes from The Grow Boss channel on YouTube :
www.youtube.com/playlist
You will understand how to use any kinds of nutrients with a good EC/TDS meter.
Blending the coco meat will give you coco oil ....
The coco water is that small amount of water in a fresh nut .
Your friend might have forgot to tell...
He might have forgot to tell to use only 10:1 of coco water in soil ( 10ml / 1l ).
And to not use too much otherwise it will start to mold.
It is perfect for Organic growers, but just good compare to real nutrients...
Happy growing 😉
@JUNGLE_B4RNS, Ya that 10:1 was left out in mine and OP's conversation. But i erred on the side of caution and went heavy on the water in the blend. But now i know and i didnt kill my girls. Thank you for the info.
