9/16 - Day 25: She is looking healthy. No pistils showing yet. So, I decided to take the bottom 2 nodes off and defoliated foliage at the lower end of the growth shoots (AKA lollipopping). My intent is to encourage her to focus on upward growth. I have never tried these pruning te hniques on an auto. I am interested to see how she responds. I akso stopped use of SuperThrive and RapidStart.
GOOD NEWS:
The 320w Geeklight came in today. I went with the 3k spectrum lm301h chips and switchable UV/IR since all my autoflowers bloom under this light. I will be hanging it in the tent tomorrow 9/17.

9/17 - Day 26: Hung new light.💡Feed Day.🚿
I have been feeding my autos with solution used for the photoperiods in the bloom tent and I follow with plain water to dilute since autoflowers dont like the heavier feeds. She received approximately 16 oz of nutrient solution. After 15 minutes I added 16 oz of plain tap H2O run through x2 KDF filters pH to 6.4. I use BlueLab pens and calibrate bi-weekly.

@FoTwenny, I can't believe this question, I am looking for the same thing, I have found a few things but have not pulled the trigger, just not satisfied yet - found a perfect cup but its clear, and not sure that is going to be an option.
@MrJones, I live dangerously! Hey, you're really knowledgeable. Any suggestions of something I could use in place of solo cups with about same volume, but less top heavy?
@BudXs, Thanks for the positivity, my friend! I sure hope she will.. I hadn't planned on any drama in this diary, but it's an exciting cliffhanger. We will see how she looks tomorrow.
@Treighfunky, Thank you sir! I am trying to get more detailed with my updates! I am glad you enjoyed this update! I appreciate you stopping by. Have a wonderful day and happy growing!
Loving this diary. It's been a super helpful resource for my first grow (also Zkittlez autoflower using FF nutes). The level of detail is tremendous. Thank you!
@SmokeableHobby, Glad that you found the information useful. That said, I am still learning a lot and if you have any feedback you think may help I value your opinion! Good luck and happy growing!
I grew these seeds, the outcome was awesome, I thought they started to slow but was able to create a decent outcome, cant wait to see your Midas touch on these girls!
@MrJones, Thanks for the words of encouragement! They're not under the quantum boards but even with blurples there's still a lot of watts for the square footage. The NLBlue Auto I am running has been doing well. I am excited to see how she does! I hope I get a nice sweet and fruity pheno!
