Alrightie, looking good for Week 10! Pistils blowing up everywhere, flowers coming in full force, beginnings of buds beginning to show. She might have been running late, and I might have had to switch her to 12-12 to trigger flower, but she's there now. Looking at another 4-7 weeks before harvest. Temps on point, nutes on point. I've scaled back on the epsom salt and Grow Big, added more molasses to get some K in there. Water volume is decent, but I'm not getting runoff so I can't check her pH at the roots. I might do at least one minor flush this week to check runoff, but she's kept in the 6.0-6.7 range all grow so I'm not too worried. Healthy with very little nute burn. At this point it's a waiting game. Only real issue is with the four corners having grown past my LST, I've moved the light as far up as it can go without jerry rigging. Here's to hoping she doesn't grow any more (but she probably will, knowing her). Don't want any light burn if I can help it. Did some defoliation of a few fan leaves and previously lollipopped spots to open her up some more.
I'll update throughout the week! Good luck with your grows. For Rock and Stone.
UPDATE DAY 67: Nothing really to report! Audrey is healthy. Vertical growth has all but stopped. Buds are coming in steady. Taking a fan leaf or two every day when I notice them covering a juicy bud site, but otherwise leaving her alone. It's the waiting game now. I think my only other bit is dialing nutes even better. I have no good bloom boosters available, so I'm making due with natural ingredients (molasses being the big one, might add wood ash next week). If you have thoughts on good natural K ingredients leave them in the comments below!
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!
