**Week 8 - September 7 to 13, 2020 - Days 50 to 56 from germination******
Getting closer tho the finish line and it was a good week. Pushing them harder now for feeding as there aren’t many feed days left. Trying not to pull the feed too early this run as I want to give these girls every chance they can get to fatten up. Been an interesting run🤪 Suspect I am looking at 11 weeks on these girls........they may ripen sooner though.......so will likely feed through week 9 and think I might use Flawless Finish this run as they will all finish at different times and it may happen more suddenly than expected. This strain has a fair bit of Sativa in it and I see it in the narrow blade fan leaves and the time she has taken to start swelling.
Trichome production is a little slow but starting now. The next two weeks I expect to be the fun ones and will see how these phenos do with ripening.
Kept the feedings light and watering a little too light I think this run. Should have got a little more CalMag in them and also increased the waterings to runoff. In the earlier weeks I was holding back on the watering wanting to help avoid too much nitrogen going into bloom. They needed to be up to two and three litre daily feedings sooner than week 7 for example, coco coir😃 This caused some deficiency in mid flower. Learning experience here was to keep up the watering volumes, because of pure coco, but reduce the ppm if needed.......I reduced both☹️
There are three girls that are going to make it to harvest and obviously LAK1 is going to yield well and the others will be less........keep them happy to the end because quantity doesn’t matter as much as quality😃 Next auto girls are not going to face the same issues👍

(I have been working on cleaning up some bottles from different nutrient lines😃........certainly not giving everything listed in a single feeding)
Getting caught up on the missing weeks in backwards fashion :) Wanted to keep up with the current week. Get the two missing weeks in here soon.
@Tweezer, Thanks Growmie!!! I had big hopes for this diary.......time will tell if it works out. I really needed three growing at a similar pace to trust some of the results.
Its about the love of the plant and keeping the grows interesting.......its all good no matter what happens......there will still be bud in the jars at the end😀🙏
