Start of week 4 for Speedy! Switching to 12/12 soon, maybe today or few more days of veg at most. She is doing very well and is growing like a champion :). Only problem so far in this grow has been low RH, it´s middle of the winter where I live and the temperature is around -20 celsius so the air is very dry. I have to spray the girls few times a day to give them even a little bit more humidity. Speedy got a little trip to the barbershop before switch, A little time to recover from shock and then we are good to take off into flowering :). She has 8 main shoots now, and I think I will keep it that way and trim out new branches and shoots. Branches are thick and have tight nodes so they will produce some very nice colas and I will rather take it that way than let her spend energy making popcorn. UPDATE 28/2/2018: Two of the autos have started flowering, cheese and stress killer showed their first pistils today :). I have raised the nutes to half strenght few days ago, and every other feeding is with no nutes, only seaweed extract. I think I will have to do a flush this week, the top of the soil looks like there might be some salt build-up and and don't want to run into any problems with nute lockouts. Low RH is still a problem, I have to spray the girls all the time. Altough it might be a good thing once the plants are in full flowering since they are very short and stocky and will most likely make very thick colas, I don't have to worry about possible mold or bud rot :)

yo mate! I have a "mutant" Chile in my tent, she's growing like a tree. I would suggest you to cover those white buckets to keep the roots at dark, it's better for them. You may use some aluminium foil, better than anything! Keep on growing! 🤘

Hi! Yes I checked your journal, your Chile is getting Big :D. I will cover those white buckets, I have a huge roll of black/white -plastic I am going to use for it.

Going to start flowering for Speedy on sunday when she hits 3 weeks. I was planning to veg her for 4 weeks but space is seriously going to be an issue with 60x60x140 tent and four plants so I can´t let her get any bigger.

Speedy recovered from topping very fast and is reaching for the skies! She is a very vigorious plant, seems to have good genetics, so thanks @James for always providing the highest quality :). The lime color just keeps getting better and she´s develeping very beautiful smell, fresh & fruity. Today I also received the grow tent I ordered, decided to go over the budget with it - altough it was only 50 euros from Amazon - but still a lot of money for me at the moment. The closet ain´t completely lightproof and I don´t want Speedy to go full tranny on me, and I would have problems with ventilation if I tried to seal the closet with something. I can´t drill air holes into it since it ain´t mine and I don´t want to pay for a new one :). Not sure if I will put the tent up today, because today I also received some Amnesia Haze from a friend and it seems to be doing it´s job very well, feeling a bit too soft to do anything that requies me to move :)

I hope she flowers as good as she vegs, and I am really anxious to see the actual flowering time for her. Like I mentioned earlier, I am going to take some cuttings off from her and veg them on the side while this one is flowering. I don´t know yet if I am going to do one plant with SCROG or a nine plant SOG or something from between, I have to see what happens when I put her into 12/12. @james, what do you recommend for maximum yield in 60x60x140 space, soil/coco -mix and 300w (150w true) LED? SCROG or SOG? I am going to flip lights when she is 4 weeks old, so I have a good 7 or 8 weeks to work with the cuttings and do a longer veg if I end up with one plant so vegging time ain´t an issue.

Looking good, you might try putting the light even more closer, 40cm seems a bit much for a 150w LED

@SKELETOR, thanks for the info, the plants look healthy and well developed, it was more of a comment on the settings than a remark on the plants. Good job, it's always best to listen to the plant and adjust everything to their needs, sometimes they can be quite sensitive. Keep up the good work ;)

@bobo420, I have tried placing it lower but leaves start to droop and curl up within couple of hours from lowering the lights. I tried 20cm, which almost killed the autos, and 30cm but they didnt seem to like that either. I will wait until they are flowering before hanging the lights lower again.

Girls recovered from foliation much faster than I expected, cut off some leaves 24 hours ago and the new growth is clearly visible! From autos Royal Cheese is responding to LST and foliation very well, Northern Light and Stress Killer are still trying to put most of the growth into the top of main stalk. So if you are looking for an auto that is easy to train, I recommend Royal Cheese.

If you need a 100% light-proof tent, don´t buy Finether -brand...😢. Leaks from zipper and ventilation flaps.
