This will be my first grow with auto flowers. I ordered 3 Critical Mass- MASSassin seeds from Attitude seeds and then ordered 6 Bruce Banner auto seeds and got 2 free Grand Daddy Purp auto seeds from Holimoli seed bank.
I have 2 Bruce Banners and 1 Grand Daddy Purp in the soil right now. I will be putting 2 Massassin seeds into soil tomorrow once they are done germinating.
DAY 14: I watered the plants with only water since I’m using Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil and don’t want to burn my babies. I am worried about the little bit of yellow on the Bruce Banner #1. I have some Cal Mag but I don’t know if it’s to soon to give any to the plants.
UPDATE: I was informed that one of my Bruce Banner auto may have TMV. Fingers crossed she don’t but time will tell.
DAY 15: Added some pics from today. BB#1 I believe is healing and I am thinking it’s not TMV. Still going to keep an eye on her. I added another Parfactworks RA1000 light to my tent today.
DAY 16: Did some LST to my two Bruce Banner autos. Going to wait a few more days before I LST the GDP auto. All plants look good on water right now. I will start adding Cal-Mag the next watering for the 2 Bruce Banners. Feel free to comment with any pointers or critique.
DAY 19: Gave both Bruce Banners some Cal-Mag with there water today. I tested the run off with my TDS meter and it came out to 1140ppm. I’m growing in Fox Farms Ocean Forest so that’s why it is high. The 2 Massassin plants are still babies but looking good. I also went ahead and did some LST to the GDP plant. I added more pics of all the ladies today.
DAY 20: I wasn’t happy with how I did the LST on the 2 Bruce Banners and the GDP so I did all 3 over again. I’m happy with it now. These girls are really taking off now. I guess they liked that hint of Bloom City Cal-Mag In the water yesterday lol. I added more pics of the fresh LST from today. Like always feel free to let me know how I’m doing and if u have any advice. Cheers 💨
Tomorrow my Bruce Banner plants will be 2 weeks old. One plant is showing some yellow on the left side of one leaf. No yellow on any leaf tips and no claws. I believe I may have been under watering. My question is should I/can I start using Cal Mag or should I wait longer?
You can start giving it to her late week 2 early week 3, it's how I've always fed my autos. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.
DAY 21: The two Bruce Banners are looking great. BB#1 is really taking off. The GDP is looking a lot better now that it has grown out of its deformity. Will probably water the ladies tomorrow with some Cal-Mag added to the water. My 2 Massassins are doing good also. One is def growing faster than the other but not to worries right now. Feel free to follow my grow and let me know if u have any comments or suggestions. ✭💨 ✭
DAY 25: Watered all 5 of my girls yesterday. The two Bruce Banner autos are doing fantastic. I may have gave them Cal-Mag a little early since they are in Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil. I noticed one of the Bruce’s has some yellowing on its tips. I will keep an eye on it. The GDP is really taking off now and looking great. Both Massassin’s are growing nicely but one is def a little ahead of the other. I noticed that the larger Massassin is already starting to put out a nice smell. When I open the tent now it smells so good. I need to replace the cover on my carbon filter. It’s already brown but I’m going to wait until my girls start to flower. I will update again in a few days. ✭ 💨 ✭
DAY 27: Not a lot happening other than the girls growing nicely. Going to water them all tomorrow and check the PPM of the run off to see if I need to start adding any nutes to the Bruce Banner’s yet since I’m going into week 4 and they are growing in Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil. PPM was around 1140 the last time I watered. I will update again tomorrow. I added new pics from today. ✭💨✭
Week 4
DAY 28: Watered all 5 plants this morning and checked the PPM of the run off. Looks like I will be adding some nutes to atleast one of the Bruce Banner’s the next time I give her water. Keeping an eye out for the Bruce’s to start flowering. So far this grow has been going great. Going to order a new exhaust fan cuz the one I have now is to weak. My girls are starting to smell and I have a carbon filter but my exhaust fan doesn’t pull enough air so the room has a strong odor now. I will update again in a few days. ✭💨✭
✭✭ GDP UPDATE ✭✭: She shot out her first white pistils today. So I believe she is officially in flower. Surprised cuz the Bruce Banner’s are 2 days older so I figured they would go into flower first.
DAY 32: Watered both Bruce plants and the GDP. I posted a pic of there PH levels and PPM levels. Looks like the Bruce’s will need some nutes in there next watering. I figure I will see some white pistols shooting out of the Bruce’s any day now. Everything is going very smooth so far so hopefully it stays like that. ✭💨✭
My Bruce Banner autos are 4 weeks old today (28 days) and I’m growing in Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil. This is what the PPM of the run off of each plant was today. Do I need to add any Cal-Mag or Fox Farm nutes to any of the girls the next time I water them?
well, while the run-off EC/ppm is good to know, the important part that wasn't mentioned is the EC/ppm of the water that you feed them with..
Without knowing that we can't really say if your plants want more, or less nutrients with each feeding.
Usually it's best to have the same EC in the run-off, as what you're putting in.. if the EC is higher in the run-off, then back a bit off with the nutrients.. if the EC is lower in the run-off then you can increase nutrients in small steps..
happy growing!
✭WEEK 5✭
DAY 35: Both Bruce Banner’s are in need of more Cal-Mag the next time I water. They will also be getting there first dose of Fox Farms nutes at 1/4 strength. Will prolly water them tomorrow. Worried I’m going to over water so I usually water them the next day when I think they are thirsty. I hope I can get them under control. I expect they will start flowering any day this week.
GDP and the Massassin’s are going good. Will be giving them there first dose of nutes this week also.
DAY 37: I noticed some tiny white pistils coming out of the Bruce Banners today. So we have finally gone into flower. Looks like the nutes are helping them bounce back. I will post some pics tomorrow.
DAY 41: Watered and fed all the girls today except for Massassin #1. I’m worried about the Bruce Banners because they are looking a little rough right now. Gave them a heavy dose of Cal-Mag so I’m hoping that’s what they are needing to bounce back.
GDP: Everyday more and more white pistils are shooting out of her. Can’t wait to see what she looks like in a few weeks as long as everything keeps going well.
WEEK 6
DAY 43: Plants are looking better. They def eat up the Cal-Mag. I’m still struggling with them but I think I figured out the problem today. My PH meter is reading .60 high so I haven’t been giving them the correct PH. I ordered some PH calibration packets to recalibrate my tester and a different type of PH tester also. Hopefully I can get them all back on track.
DAY 45: Alright I recalibrated my PH tester today and watered all but one plant. I left the closet door shut last night and they looked a lot better when I checked on them today. The PH of my run off is right at 6.0 so I think I caught the problem before things got to bad.
GDP: Looks good other than some of the leaves look a little rough. Posted some pics of her in flower today.
WEEK 7
DAY 49: Well the Bruce Banners are being difficult and not wanting to switch over to flowering. I contacted the breeder and he told me to change my lights to 14/10 and that should be enough to make them switch. My other 3 plants have been in flower for over a week so I really didn’t want to change my light schedule. I will update with more pics later. I also ordered some Fish Shit and waiting for it to arrive.
DAY 51: Storm knocked out my power for 27 hours. Hopefully it didn’t stress them to much. Defoliated all the plants today. One of the Bruce Banners was looking pretty rough. Pretty sure it’s because my soils PH is under 6 right now. The GDP and both Massassin’s are flowering nice. Going to add pics of what they are looking like today.
WEEK 8
Day 58: Added some pics of the GDP and the Massassin’s flowering. I guess I’m going to just let the Bruce Banners veg until the other plants are finished then I will switch my lights to 12/12.
UPDATE: I added a Spider Farmer SF-1000 to my tent. So I now have 3 lights over the girls.
WEEK 9
DAY 65: They are all growing very nicely. I unfortunately am running out of room so I’m letting a friend take the Bruce Banner’s to finish up for me.
GDP: Going to prolly start flushing it this week. My microscope will be here tomorrow so I can check the trichomes. Gave it a little pinch to check the density and damn that bitch is sticky. My fingers reaked for awhile from one little squeeze.
GDP: She is starting to show some purple on the buds. She is really sticky and super smelly.
Massassin’s: The buds are getting bigger slowly but surely. They have a crazy amount of white hairs. I am expecting to get some nice fat buds from them.
WEEK 10
Day 70: GDP is getting closer and closer to harvest day. Trichomes are cloudy but not seeing much amber. I figure I have atleast another week to go.
Massassin’s: The buds are really starting to fatten up and starting to get trichomes all over them. Still have a few more weeks before they will be ready.
