fungiiiiiii Hi, I'm using this diary mainly as personal docummetation of my first ever grow, however you are more than welcome to share your opinions and knowledge with me in the comments. I've always wanted to grow cannabis and finally got the oportunity, I've read a few books on soil and plants (Teaming with Nutrients and Teaming with Microbes), so now I have the oportunity to aply the theory to practice.
Organic soil mix:
25L Organic Soil (Multipro)
5L Compost (Terrafertil)
5L Wormcastings (Terrafertil)
5L Vermiculate
1 cup Bone Meal
20g Solid seaweed
1 cup bat guano
30g Dolomite
100g Azomite
Great White Mycorrhizae
Activating soil microbiology with actively aerated compost tea and feeding every week:
Brew at least 12 hrs (570ppm)
5L Rain Water
1tbsp Seaweed Extract
2tbsp Molases
1cup Wormcastings
2cups Compost
Watering every other day with 0.5 L of distilled water and seaweed extract (1ml/L)
Germinated one more of each strain, they are 23 day behind the first seed that sprouted from soil (first OG Kush) This plants have similar soilmix, I just switched the vermiculite for coco coir coz I had no more.

fungiiiiiii Starting week 2 hoping to see more rapid growth and then start to train by mainlining on day 14 hopefully.
The OG Kush was topped on day 15, she is growing really quick. The Sour Diesel is keeping its pace too, hopefully I will top it by day 15 if I see the 5th node starting to develop.

fungiiiiiii The OG Kush is growing quick, topped at the third node on day 15 and defoliated the rest of the nodes. I will tie her down with coated wire in a few days.
I snapped a main on the OG Kush, therefore I won't bother her anymore, on the Sour Diesel everything is going fine, topped her at the 3rd by day 15 and responded fine.
I planted one more of each (already sprouted) in the same soil mix but with coco instead of vermiculite today 28 of August.

fungiiiiiiistarted grow question 5y ago
Trying to choose manifolding method, I've read about Nebula method (growweedeasy.com) and watched Lucky 75's method on youtube, so should I top it three times to get 8 colas or twice and heavely defoliate like Lucky. I would like to maximize yield given that I only have two autos

Hello friend, as others have stated autoflowers don't like to be stressed as they don't have enough time to recover.
Saying that, alot of people train there autos and the best thing about growing yourself is trying new things and learning from mistakes.
I myself am seeing some success with light lst, defoliation, and tip bending on my autoflowers. Check out my black dog grow compared to my untrained gelato grow.
In my opinion week 3 is getting very late for training an auto and is likely too late as the stems start to really strengthen up at this point.
Good luck and have fun that's what it's all about! Go crazy and experiment my friend. Checkout other people's diaries, find the big auto growers and ask them questions directly :)

Is this mottling some kind of deficiency or disease? or is it just a genetic variation? This Sour diesel had a two toned leaf at the 3rd node and had this mottling from the start.

fungiiiiiii Week 5, Compost tea is brewing right now and will be soon in the soil.
OGK started to flower in late week 4, and I made some LST to help light penetration. She started to strech.
Sour Diesel got a bit stunt by the defo but it started to recover today. Mainlining autos is not as easy as it seemed, but I like to experiment.
Week 5 finished for both plants and they are doing fine, both on flowering phase by now.

Grow Questions
fungiiiiiiistarted grow question 5y ago
Three of the older leafs are turning yellow with purple/brown stains in them, also their stems turned purple with no other stems being purple in the plant. Is this phosphorus deficiency or nitrogen deficiency? Already top dressed with worm castings and bat guano high on P and k.
Solved
Leaves. Color - Yellow

Mr_Weeds_Autosanswered grow question 5y ago
This is a phosphorus deficiency, see how the leaves began to curl downwards and turn yellow. Notice that the stems or veins never turned red or purple on this leaf, except for some parts that were actually affected by the phosphorus deficiency. This isn't unusual in flower just means the plant needs more phosphorus. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.

@growdoctordc, I snapped trying to LST while drunk, never touching my girls again under the influence of alcohol, lesson learned.

@Budofpray, ty for sharing information with me and checking the grow, I know I've been quite radical with my high stress training and soil amendments, I wanted to grow photoperiod but had to resolve to autos because of timeframes. Im now germinating a photoperiod: Orange Blossom from BSF.

@fungiiiiiii,
I have never agreed with the theory of growing autos because (fill in the blank)
The Ruderalis gene is simply Rude! Why did anyone introduce a low THC influence in a foolish and misguided attempt to “make growing easier”. Autos offer nothing that we need! Repeat. Worthless beyond their small and immediate yield. Stick to photo period plants for several reasons I can’t be bothered with going into detail on just now! Research and learn. Say NO to Auto!

Failed to germinate both of my royal queen seeds (3 years old and not properly stored), but got new seeds from BSF Seeds and germinated a OG KUSH Auto which is already in the soil and a Sour Diesel Auto still in the shot glass.
