everythings aluminium tape yo 👽 number 3 is going insane with pistils, it entered very early into flower. number 2 is very much still in veg mode, there's a few pistils here and there. It looks like it could use some 'lift me up' nutrients. number 1 has pistils and is coming along very nicely, only one yellowing leaf. Added two human hand full worm castings from my own worms Added one human hand full of dec. cow dung Emended the soil and airated the medium, being mindful of the roots Added 500ml of nutrient water (three part GH) to the grow One tiny new Sativa girl had been added (really cute)

Should I Low stress train these girls? I have never grown autos and I am very afraid to stun them. They are ripping fast through water, temperatures are high so they are producing a lot of sugars. I defoliated the fan leaves of #3 in the hope it will grow a bit faster.

Hey there Alien, you're right to LST, it's basically the only way to get a lot more yield. The only issue with autos is, they "get stiff" really quickly, like around week 3 week 4 , so if you go for LST go for it sooner rather than later. For their growth rate, what i can tell you is that growth rate is only determined by the vapor pressure deficit (vpd) and at your ttemperature you should be around 30% for optimal growth rate. Learn more about VPD here : http://pulsegrow.com/vpd LST wont stun them but if you do it too late the flower nodes end up growing all fucked up. hope this helps ! 🚀

The plants don't look hungry, but since they are autos I don't want to stun them by not being one step ahead I like to keep it organic, should I emend her soil, add some wormcastings/nitrogen? I also 100ml of GH micro, veg, bloom 👽

Dont add nutes until you see they need it. Less is best for big harvests. To much nutes and harvests decrease. Underfed you still end up with nice big bud. You see they need more it's easy to fix. Give them to much and it's a pain in the butt to fix. Cheers

Hey You can definitely tie, tuck and bundle like that...the only thing to watch out for will be moisture pockets or collecting in between the leaves. Pm and other issues could spring up in situations like that. Also you could defoliate some of those larger leaves, especially if they're just being tucked down into the shadows where they're not going to do as much work with photosynthesis. Personally that's what I would do, not go crazy, but just pluck two of those tied leaves.

Keeping both 200w VEG and 300w FLOWER lights 24h is too expensive for my alien wallet. So I left the veg light under 12h/12h and flower on. Please share with me some of your past experiences and how can I save money and grow killer yields. 👋👽

You can use a 18/6 light cicle that is more than fine for autoflowering and save on the bill on the middle of the day when electricity cost is upper and there is more heat outside. You can also start growing photoperiod plants that only require 12 hours of light in bloom that in my country I can use all in night Flashes in which electricity costs half of the daytime; also they yeald more than autos

Are yellowing fan leaves a sign of nutrient deficiency? do these plants need some nutrients?

Oh yes please. Definitely needing some sort of nitrogen based nutrient any of the "grow" labeled ones will do...even an "all purpose " would be ok. Just something to bring the N back up. You'll lose some leaves along the way into flowering but this is a little more dramatic than that. Some leaves will yellow with lack of light at the bottom but it's usually slow and mine rarely turn that full limp yellow. Do the leaves pull off with the slightest tug? If so then almost certainly a need for nitrogen. Which is ok in small doses throughout the majority of flowering and medium doses throughout veg cycle. 👍 It should be an easy fix though so no worries.

Looks like a bit of over fert, a tiny tiny amount. I like keeping my tips like that, but no more. Let's me know she's getting a bit more than enough of what she needs.

Automatic feminized Haze x Super Silver Haze, 1 week old. Why is my seedling deformed? I figured the quality of the seed is not that great or perhaps its genetics... Why does this happen? What is it? Can anyone provide me with some answers? Thanks 👽

Stunted. This has happened a few times to me as well. Just a bad seed or some hot soil. My solo cup challenge seed has the same issue—- grew out of it, but takes significantly longer to finish. See what will happen or pull it and move on

For the most part the plants look nice and healthy...just that bottom bit... so either consider they're tied too tight, lack of light, or lack of nitrogen. Photo 4 and 5 make me lean more towards the nitrogen.
