As I suspected, Audrey is beginning to grow more now that I've added full nutrients into her feedings! I'm guessing she's going to be a slow grower, but as long as she stays healthy I'm fine with that. Her 2nd set of leaves is beginning to fully extend, and my hope is that this week we start to see more of an explosion of growth. I'll update throughout the week.
Day 16: Oh yeah, she needed the nutes! Immediately finished her second set, 3rd set is already coming in less than 24 hours. Lesson learned y'all: sometimes seedlings do require additional nutes to kickstart their growth cycle.
Day 17: Some mild nute burn on the leaves, to be expected since I used full strength nutes. Going to dial back to at least 1/2, won't be feeding her again until the beginning of next week.
Day 19: New growth is looking good, coming in about as expected. Very slight canoeing of bottom leaves suggest a bit of overfertilizing or overwatering, so again I'll be keeping nutes to 1/2 strength and watering on Friday. Growth has gone from yellow-green to green across most of the plant, suggesting that the soil was deficient in nutes and needed some additional stuff to kickstart. Will probably start LST next week once she's grown another couple of nodes. She's also in a 5 gallon pot filled with 3.5 gallons of soil, so I might add a bit of additional soil as she grows. Should be easy enough if I fill the whole medium with water to allow the soil to settle.
From what I can see it's a healthy mix of Cloudy and Clear. Look for 30% amber for a harvest sweet spot on your plant.
Always look to the buds and not sugar leafs when checking! 🤘😤
Hello!
what a nice looking plant you got there, great job!
Soon you'll be able to enjoy the puffs of this delicious strain ehehe
I'm actually writing and tasting it, as I just harvested mine a few weeks ago eheh
Good luck with the remaining time, happy grow
@TheGourmetWeed, I have an end date I have to keep to due to company, but I intend to run her as long as I can! NL Autos can take a while; some people on Grow Diaries ran theirs 18-24 weeks!
@4RockandStone, thank you for the kind words :D
If you followed my diary, then I really give you a good piece of advice. Let it be a couple more weeks than I did.
I regret now harvesting so soon as the effects could be stronger.
@TheGourmetWeed, thanks man! I've been looking at your diary the past few weeks to gauge what to expect with this NL Auto. Hope it turns out as well as yours!
