This is the 2nd fastest auto i have grown. And by fast I mean vigorous. She sprouted the same day as the double grape in the pot next to her but she looks a few days ahead of her. Started a bloom khaos foliar spray yesterday and she seems to have reacted well. I can already see side shoots starting to sprout from the main stem. Gonna be a little monster
Plant growth is controlled by light intensity , oxygen , co2 , nutrients aid the process but the single most important factor is the light . Then oxygen to the roots , don't overdo things as they can never be undone , my golden rule - you can always add but never take out , it look ok , but could probably do with being closer to the light 👍
@Divs_darkroom, I knew about the lighting not needing to be changed but I thought all plants hand a flowering boost of grow, that's good to know thank you. Maybe that's why you really need autos to bulk up before they automatically begin flowering? Or you'll end up with little ladies?
@Experimentgreen, with a photoperiod plant your thought process is on the right track. with the automatic plants, they dont depend on light to flower/stretch. they do it when they are ready. so i keep my 19 hour lighting schedule from seedling all the way to harvest day.
