RQS Quick One Auto First Grow

there are several way to keep the height down, one you could take a small weight put it on the floor get some string and find a good area to wrap the top with the string and the other end to the weight , now this will bend your whole plant with out much damage, and get all those lower flowers hit with light so you get bigger buds, the plant will continue to grow the top until it reaches the height of the lower branches if not bigger. you can keep doing that, move the string that's wrapped around the plant and keep raising the string and put the weight ack on the floor, it is an easy way to train your plant that is easy and keeps things low, or you van top your plant when you have 4 or more nodes, topping is pretty easy you cut off the top above the last growth, you top and all your side branches now become tops and perhaps increase yield , if your growing a auto you have to watch the topping cause some times autos dont like to be topped and you could end up with a lower yield, next you can start training the plant using garden ties, this is where you tie each branch in like a flat pattern and this will expose all the lower flower sites for a great yield, when you do this you have to be careful not to snap a branch off as some strains just dont like being tied down. but if you want to lst the plants start at about 4 weeks- 5 weeks, that way the plant has a little bit to bend on

Looks like a slight nute burn and, yes, she needs calmag. Check runoff and make sure its between 300‐500 at this point. Feed calmag as directed on the label (one of the few nutrients this is okay to do). If your runoff is much higher than 700, do a flush.

This means you can feed it a bit more. Your feed should probably be in the 400ppm ballpark right now.

I don't start bloom nutes until after the stretch. This usually takes place 1-2 weeks after an auto first show calyxes. You'll recognize it when your plant doubles in size (or better) in one week. I personally prefer an 18/6 schedule, I think the plant benefits from dark period. This is highly debated though, and if you want to go the 24/0 route, just increase her light by a half hour every day until you hit 24 hours. Autos have ruderalis which is accustomed to 24 hours of light in it's natural habitat, so you won't hurt her. Honestly, you could probably just go right to 24 and not notice any I'll effects, but I think you can avoid shocking her if you ease her into it.

I'd recommend you don't do more cutting into her.. It's week 4, Quick One should have started sexing by now. - Even more so, since it's your first grow.. If you want to top plants, start with photos until you know what you're doing. Keep with the LST.. If you cut her now, she'll spend the energy you're trying to save, on healing the cuts. you might even end up with even less of a yield..

Thats normal, new growths are always lighter color than older leaves. They will darken as they grow

Don't think I see any noticeble pistils yet from the pics you uploaded, but if you can see em In person then your plant is in pre-flower. If you want stronger stalks, next time, have an oscilating fan in your grow area gently blowing across your plants to help them to help them develop strong stalks while in veg phase. Your light also may be a little far from your plant so that's why they've been stretching trying to reach the light source. Your plant should be fine as long as you keep giving it the optimal conditions! In flower, I'd move your light closer than it was in Veg so it gets all the light it needs,

Heya! Could need some time adjusting to the new light. I often get those taco symptoms when the light is too close or hot. You mentioned you backed the light off a little, let the plants sit for a couple days at that height and then you can slowly start adjusting your light lower if you'd like. Just watch the plants and keep an eye out on how they react. Cheers and good luck!

Do not spend money on a heater, until you've insulated the building. You'll only be paying to heat up the air flowing outside.

heya! That would be nute burn sir! That would be represented by the burned tips on the leaves and the nitrogen toxicity is shown from the leaves dark green and clawing at the tips. I see you fed at the same ppm as last week, check your run-off ppm value and see how close it is to your input ppm. You most likely have a salt build up and needs to be flushed. When the soil is dry enough to water again, flush it with pH water until your ppm is lowered to the desired level and resume as normal. You mentioned over watering, some leaves are drooping a little, could be from the excess nutrients or a little bit of over watering. Just make sure the top two inches are dry before watering again. Good luck!

You might be watering too often, or not often enough. - Symptoms are the same, so you gotta use your memory as to when you watered last. Tho it could be other things, but it's usually one of the two. If you're truly considering starting over, when they've just started to preflower, then take a look at my Quick One diary and compare it to yours.. I fucked up really bad a few times lol. You'll see how good yours actually look. ^_^

Definitely overwatered and very likely overdosed on nutrients. Not enough oxygen for the roots causes the leaves to droop. Never water every day, and don't use your nutrients every time you water. If you water more than 2-3 times a week, it is very likely you will see this every time you try. DON'T BIN THEM! They are still very salvageable right now if you take the right steps!

Hi.. Yes definitely ..the bottom leaves and growth are just eating energy that could have been of better use higher up. Also the bottom stuff will never really mature cos of lack of light. I would say clean everything from the bottom up to the 4th node ot your side branches. Happy growing

Hello With how much white pistils you have I'd say there's at least another three weeks to go. Id keep feeding for another 2 weeks and then evaluate again. I usuly like there to be about 40-60% of my pistils change colors . and shrivel up before starting any flushing.

Hey it doesn’t look like she is turning hermie yet. Give her a few more days and if you see any bananas coming in then she did. She does look good with that little bit of purple coming. Happy growing
