Starting to get a bit worried about the one that's growing weird it's around day 42 and still looks like it's veg sor wierd genetics or something?
I also ran some water through the pots because I felt like it was all just building up the leaves look really dark green under different light and I've never really run a lot of water through so o get run off from the bottom it always comes out the sides of pots about half way down. I've been putting some water underneath and from the top and they been drinking it up quickly sometimes and slower others I'm not sure why.
Two of them seem to be coming along nicely but I'm not sure starting to smell great and getting a little frosty and purple on one of them looks beautiful.
As I said I'm concerned about the others one that's in the same pot as the purple one, I should also probably do some defoliation soon but not really sure what to take off.
Any suggestions for what I should do with the one that seems to be pre flower stil?

It's my first Grow, going into week 3 should I go above 0.5ltr per pot?
I want to try lst, I only have pipe cleaners and I don't think they are quite big enough for me to try lst yet should I wait a couple more days or just go for it?

Wait few days for LST. Need to get some height before tying her down.
Watering shouldn't need more than .5 liter right now but when she gets 1-2 ft tall will want to increase it.

I've been running the light 24hours and then turning it down with the dimer while I sleep because I'm worried about temps
Would I be better changing over to 20/4 or 18/6 or should I wait til it goes into flower?

A couple of things. First stick to a light schedule, fooling around with it can stress the plant and in worst cases, turn the plant hermaphrodite. Second, I have used 18/6, 20/4 and 24/0; they all yielded the same, I only use the 20/4 or 24/0 in winter to keep the grow space warm

Athosanswered grow question 4 years ago
When you should start feeding depends on what kind of soil you are using and how much. A big enough pot can last a lot of time before needing additional nutrients. Let the plant feed itself from the soil and only start feeding once you see the first signs of deficiency. Your plants look healthy as they are, they do not need feeding. Foe example when using a 3 gallon (11 liter) pots with allmix, the soil would last until week 7 or 8 before needing any feeding.
HecticJardinstarted grow question 4 years ago
I tried lst on the tallest one, I felt a rip maybe roots? Anchored and bent a little. Gorilla I tied a few branches down to let some light underneath was it worth? Good experience none the less. I also have couple questions in week 4 comment. Really loving my first Grow so far :)

You did a great job training, but remember there will always be a recovery time. You have autos, so if you train too late into veg, you may have weird buds during flower. You did good, but 4 weeks in, I wouldnt train much more. You're due to start flowering within a week or two.

I haven't done any defoliation, should I be?
It's now day #21-23 from soil are they doing ok?
Is it ok to leave that big fan on at the bottom most of the day? I have been putting it outside and dimming the light to 25% when I sleep leaving front flap open

I would think about removing those two giant fan leaves on top but that's all. I might even wait another 5 days or so before I do that so the leaves can feed the plant energy.

Day #31
I took big fans leaves off from the bottom that weren't getting any or much light and some near the top covering some bud sights.
I will start using fish mix & topmax when they arrive.
What distance should I have the light from canopy and when should defoliate again?

Hard to say, since every light is different. A good rule of thumb is 12 inches (30 cm) away. As for defoliating, once it starts get overcrowded with leaves you can start thinking to take a few leaves again.
HecticJardinstarted grow question 4 years ago
Leaves curling in one plant is worse than others.
Just noticed the leaves are curling worse on one plant, I think it's the one that had wierd genetics due to coming back from the dead early on
The soil was quite dry before watering today

Plant looks super healthy and that foliage looks super dense. A little bit of defoliation just to expose lower bud sites could help improve yields, but since you're already in flower, I'd try to keep it minimal or you're going to stress your plant out too much and actually end up with lower yields than if you didn't defoliate at all

I'm concerned about one of the plants
The pictures don't really show it wel but im seeing red tips on the leaves (I think) and a lot less pistils compared to the other two plants (the last two pics for comparison)
Im pretty sure it's the one that had genetic problems early on

All weed plants stretch during the first several weeks of flowering. She will stop growing and stretching. Once the stretch I'd done she will focus on bud production then.

I think they might be revegetating should I maybe reduce the light from 24 hours to 20?
I notice there is a lot more smaller growth underneath on all 3
I was dimming the light while I slept but the last week or so I've been leaving it on full blast I was worried about temps.

It's an autoflower, so unless it is defective you should not have to worry about re-vege. Light does not control this phase-shift for autoflowers.
re-vege will cause new leaves and stems to grow. It'll get taller and the new leaves it grows will look so drastically different, you will certainly notice them. They come out 3-lobed and rounded with no serration type stuff... look weird in a noticeable way.

I don't see any blue shade on the leaf, so i'd lean Ca or Mg deficiency. if there's no interveinal chlorosis, i'd lean Ca-def.
But, those are symptoms and not necessarily the cause. Do the math on your PPMs of what you feed - guaranteed analysis labels can be trusted. If you find that you provide plenty of each, it's more likely lockout and you need to investigate further to avoid the problem in future.

Some growers harvest in stages, which I've done myself if I don't think the lower buds are ready when the upper ones are.
- Basically, you just harvest the top, and let the lower part be until you're satisfied with it.

It's the start of week 9 today, anyone got rough idea how many weeks left til harvest for the purple and solo? The sativa dominant one is flowering up now I feel like there is a while to go on that one. I'm getting some marks on leaves and yellowing on the bottom two in same pot.

CheckThoseTrichsanswered grow question 4 years ago
Heya!
Kind of hard to tell by the picture but, if you judge by the pistils usually 70-90% ambered is a good time to harvest. The best way is to use a small microscope or jewelers loupe to have a glance at the trichromes. Most people harvest when all the trichromes are milky to 30% amber. If you harvest with more milky trichs it will produce more of a head high effect, where as more amber trichromes will give you the couch lock effect.
I would suggest looking at the trichs if you can, I have had plants ready to harvest with lots of white pistils left still and some where they were all brown. Still looks like a couple weeks imo
Cheers and good luck!
HecticJardinstarted grow question 4 years ago
Looks like mostly milky on the top bud maybe another week or two left?
Should I let the soil dry out before harvesting and it's not possible for me to keep them in dark as I will ned the tent for the taller plant stil has long way to go
Is it possible for me to take a tester?

Thanks! It's my first indoor and I'm really impressed how well it's gone so far, I already can't wait to start the next one after what I've learned this time 🙂
Can't wait to sample these girls too, I'm concerned about how I'm going to dry as I wil need to keep one of them in the tent, I was thinking of trying two different ways in cardboard box with maybe a dehumidifier in room but I'm not sure yet. Might take a tester bud or one of the tops off and see how that dries Inna week or two
