Good job. What happened to Yvie? Newbie myself on second grow but first time with autos. May I ask if you cut down side branches to get those distinct, larger colas?
Really nice grow my friend!

We have flowers!!! And wowser have they grown. More excited than I’d like to admit.
But this week has not been without issues.
Firstly we’re down to 3 plants on this diary. Reason being it turns out I got my seeds mixed up. One of the four is actually a free seed I got Bluetooth auto I think. It actually looks way different to the other 3 so was a bit obvious but really cool to see the different genetics. She is a much squatter thicker girl than the other 3.
Then the heat. For the last 3 nights here it has been over 26C throughout. Coolest I could keep my tent was around 31, with my Macguyver co2 and constant prayers they seem to be ok.
Also had to take them out the tent for a couple of hours so I could hid the tent for so I could get my hot water fixed (which is in the same room as the tent)
Topped them on D23, tied down side branches and nipped off a few leaves (that looked weak or hot no light).
Started nutrients on D24 at very light doses. Second feed on D28 very light doses but included a little flower nutrient now starting to flower.
Think that’s it, going to try stay cool and calm in the heat.
Thank you for reading.

Does everything look ok?
These 4 are 15 days since I popped them into a glass of water to germinate.
They’re in canna pro plus with perlite.
Only been watering (most days) bit worried I’m overwatering like the noob I am.
Thanks

She looks happy and healthy. Just make sure you have plenty of drainage and aren't watering wet soil.
I found that in the first couple weeks, I would benefit by keeping watering to a minimum. This forces the root system to get larger and develop faster in search of water.

Anyone know what’s going on with these leaves? Appeared this morning. Only affecting one leaf on 2/4 plants.
Other than this all plants going really well.
Thanks for all the help on my previous q!

Hi, nothing to worry about is a normal leaves mutation in overall healthy plant. These mutations are common and they can appear and disappear at every growth stages, often related to the same branch. 👊
Noob_queststarted grow question 4 years ago
So I plan to put in a screen and land up with a level canopy, hopefully.
Is it absolutely necessary to top your plants? (I’m nervous of messing it up like the noob I am)
And do my plants look ready to top? And do they look ok otherwise?Thank you

The plant looks like she has little problem with nutrients uptake. Newer leaves shows some discolor and curl. It may be caused by many things.
There are missing data in your diary about ppm/EC. That is quite important information to know due to maintain proper level of nutrients/salts in soil.
If u have hard water at home, then the ppm level is quite over limit so that can cause several issues to the plant. So lets buy one of these ppm/EC meters to gain better control over your growth.
For example, water in my home is hard with higher level of pH/ppm/EC and our plants looks to have similiar issues. To avoid this hard water problem i buy destilled water and mixing it with tap water.
I hope that i helped a little bit. Have a nice day 👋

What’s happening with this plant?
After watering all my plants 2 days ago, one of them has been quite droopy and developed these yellow areas with dark tips.
Is it a watering issue / heat / deficiency?

Droopy and yellowing? Almost definitely overwatering.
Noob_queststarted grow question 4 years ago
So after being diagnosed with overwatering a few days ago it has spread to more leaves. I think I have developed root rot. Please confirm?
Also best ideas to fix? Have sprayed with rhizo and added some great white to soil.
Thanks for the help so far,

Noob_queststarted grow question 4 years ago
Hi All,
Should I be removing these little buds at the bottom of the plant for a better overall yield?
They’re all autos, it’s day 53 of advertised 75 days.
Have read I should prune them but have also read that auto’s are sensitive so maybe not...?
Thank you

hi Mr. Mothalova told alot about harvesting window. I absolutely agree to him Your plant looks like going longer at least for 3 weeks.
all leaves are green, pisitls are totally white... and iam guessing for clear trichomes. Letting her grow and mature the buds, doubles your Harvest
just feed them till day zero and give her enough attention.. especially look for mold, because she grows very bushy#
The good news is.... no flushing needed
Flushing is amodern myth and has NO ADVANTAGES_____
your Girl just starves. Give her food, water and Love until you come to your " Harvest- Window"

So my buds have some weird growth I think?
My girls have developed these growths at the top (and sides) of the buds.
Is this normal? Do I need to fix it?
My noob logic tells me ‘buds are getting bigger = all good’.
But not sure if it’s a problem? Please help. Huge thanks

Foxtailing. Caused by light/heat stress or could just be genetics. Some will say it hurts yields while others say it helps. I see you are running HIDs. How far are they from canopy and what are your temps like?
Noob_queststarted grow question 4 years ago
Hi,
How far away from harvest do you think I am? - Some of my plants foxtailed with new white pistils soo think tricky to tell. Today is D81 of advertised 75 days.

NobodysBudsanswered grow question 4 years ago
each context should get its own considerations... how much new growth? Spirals vs fist-shaped buds? and similar thoughts. I'm not one to worry about a pretty shape, but each to their own. Spirals are bad, but can be snipped off into trim bin for concenrates.
i'd focus on the bulk of what i'm harvesting. Same reasons you try to scope more than just 1 cola or just the top area to check trichomes... try to get an average of the largest portions... or, possibly stagger a harvest in some instances...
heat, too much light, too little light.. all can cause fox-tailing from what i know as well as genetic predispositions to consider. if you think it was environmentally caused, try to fix that, otherwise focus on the bulk of what you consider good buds for harvest window and i think you'll do fine.
Noob_queststarted grow question 4 years ago
It’s D85 of advertised 75days and I’m struggling with the wait.
Most of white pistils are result of foxtails. (Which I am ok with)
Feels like it’s gone on ages but I can’t see any amber trichomes, and it’s not clear if they’re milky yet!
How long do you think I have left? Thanks

u are very close, you prob. have a week left maybe tops 9 days, keep looking though at the tris, im seeing a few here and there, so your harvest window is open right now, she is ready when you are ready to cut if you do not make it a week. but your good to harvest anytime now

Hi,
So they’re just going into 48hrs of darkness before they get cut down.
What do you think I will yield?
(It’s a 4x4, 600w hps) - BUT... I’m a total noob lol.
Thank you 🙏

Yoohoo
Having the hps running will help..they seem to do some good yielding... but I've usually had most autoflowers come in around 80-120 dry weight. With the XXL i think you could probably plan on getting the 100-120g per plant so let's hope we're at 350g dry....wet you'll probably come in around 600g.
I feel like the expectations the breeders give out are always listed in wet weights.
Happy trimming. ✌️

Thanks @Superjd, just checked out your diary. Also growing a Gorrilla Cookies from @fastbuds not on my diary. Got it as a free seed.. (it’s the tall one on the right of my tent). Got to say it’s been the best of the lot so far and absolutely covered in trichomes. One thing I would say is get a ppm meter and check what your actually feeding them, they’re only cheap and it has given me peace of mind if nothing else... And Good luck!
