Been going ok. Think my cal mag might be low hence the tiny spots on leave in a few spots. Beside that its growing steadily. Gonna start bending this week.

Fresh trim and bend. Will be letting it start climbing up soon. Little damage on leaves from me raising TDS too soon. But those leaves don't stay around anyway. Beside that it is on track to grow like a bush. Ex. Lemon pie auto, lsd auto, pineapple Express auto. Thanks for follows and likes.

Had issues all week with substrate too hot. Recently flushed and low dose of nutrition added. Changing to blue planet line of nutrition this week. Hopefully I can get it to bounce back.

Well got a little light burn. Switched to blue planet a few days ago. Can already see difference in new growth. Should start flowering and stretching soon. Thanks again for support and likes. Think the new nutrition line will make a difference in everything once it levels out.

Starting to come back. I have really delayed the flowering cycle. But substrate is cooled off and feeding half amounts if that till it gets leveled out with new nutrition. This will be on a redo list for sure. Thanks for follows and likes.

Well after stunning it horribly in previous weeks it has started to make a strong come back. Very forgiving strain. Still suffering from nute burn. Looks like I just dialed in the right amounts. New leaves look good. New nutrition is making a big difference in getting amounts right. Thanks again for the likes and follows.

Well early in the week my ph was bottoming out and was having a salt buildup from nutrition. So I upped amount of water to provide adequate run off to remove salts and up my soil ph. It immediately took to the change and started growing very well. Thanks again for likes and follows. Merry Christmas and happy new year

After severe ph and nutrition problems, I finally balanced it out a few weeks ago. Got a far better understanding of using my substrate and nutrition properly. Will be regrowing this again.

Is super sticky and very colorful lots of resin. Will be regrowing this again soon, now that I got a better handle on soil and nutrition amount needed. Thanks again fast buds. A definite grow for anyone wanting good smoke and beautiful flowers. I will definitely be making a second attempt in near future.Thanks again for likes and follows. My biggest issue during this grow was salts that built up in soil and causing major ph issues, and nute burn at same time. Changed things since this grow and results are much better. Happy growing and see you on part 2 💨💨💨👍 To purchase seeds click here https://myfastbuds.com/?a_aid=60910eaff2419

Looking great, I love the build, keep it up💕🌱👍 -1 thing I see, leaves on the soil are going to lead to problems quickly. Maybe lift your pins up a bit, and or use straight wire underneath the leaves that are almost touching the soil, and keep them off the soil. -When watering / nutes its a royal pain when its that low not to drench all the leaves. I'm only saying this because I grow all my plants just like yours and those are the 2 problems I ran into. Just trying to help my friend. Have a super weekend ☮️❤️🍻

@@Canamatoes, awesome, usually in a day or two the wire starts to pull out of soil. I just reset them and will try to leave more room, or cut those leaves off. Thanks for advice. Glad to see someone else using same method. I do it because of height restrictions. Happy growing

Nice result buddy, out of interest why do you prefer to grow autos rather than photoperiod varieties? I have only grown the very first autos that were released many many years ago and seen how much they have improved since.
Roberts
Robertscommented4 years ago
@Esoteric_growing, I believe no more then any other plant. It's a last ditch effort programmed by nature to try to clone itself.
Esoteric_growing
Esoteric_growingcommented4 years ago
@Roberts, thanks pal. Just trying to get a little understanding of them before I give them a go. I would like to have a few in my veg chamber just to get something in a little before my photoperiod varieties. Last question are these hemi prone any more than normal fem seeds, less so or about the same?
Roberts
Robertscommented4 years ago
@Esoteric_growing, autos are faster if you have no growing issues. Plus depending on how you like your trichromes and effect. I think the harvest times they give are too short. My strawberry gum was really close on estimate time. I started flushing when they were saying to harvest. Only true way is to look at trichromes. Hope this helps

Jungle_James_Growscommentedweek 114 years ago
Looking good buddy, might I suggest one small thing, when you LST like you are doing try not to push the wire into the soil as you are damaging the roots which could also cause stress, they should be tied to the pots where possible.
Roberts
Robertscommented4 years ago
@Junglejames, thanks should work better for when it stretches and gets bigger. Better angle as well.

@Roberts, https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07FF661XT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_ZfE0FbQTTZW7F?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 theses are what I use they just clip on the fabric pots and then attach your wires to the loops. Happy growing.
