Week one in solo cups from seed they popped at 2 days. From the time seeds were put in the cups we cut water bottles in half and sprayed them with water to keep the humidity up 2 times a day. Day 7 we moved them out of solo into the 5 gal pot. Thinking I should have waited another week or start them in the 5 gal hopefully my girls perk up.

Day 8 we decided that after transplanting then they needed more time with the bottles on top. Day 8 almost 2 inches Day 9 I watered our 2 week nuts we are using Athena and only using a 1/8 of when they suggested. Fastbuds has a feeding schedule and that’s what we are using for auto flower. We water for 40 seconds with a weed killer sprayer. Day 10- all of them look like they recovered from the transplant. Color is darker. Ready for my girls to start moving Day 11 watered for 40 seconds with sprayer. Girls looking good Day 12 girls growing week watered for 40 seconds changed lights yesterday to 20 hours so we will see Day 13 girls doing great almost done with this week Day 14 growing so much every day. About to up the nutrition to 1/4 of recommended tomorrow

Week 3 Day 15, wow the growth is going fast all the girls moved up to 1/4 of recommended for autos so excited Day 16 today we upgraded our water system I was so hard mixing up 1 gallons 3 times so we got a big bin and I mixed 10 gallons of nutrients for my girls and the water comes out faster so we will see Day 17 so watered them for 10 seconds with new sprayer and had a lot of run off so maybe tomorrow I will only do 5 seconds. All the girls look great Day 18 so today I forgot to check PH before I watered them I checked after and it was 6.89 😬 so I hope everyone is ok after Day 19 today they are great just growing so much Day 20 got fed today and all is week about to head to week 4 :) Day 21 wow 🤩 the girls are doing great they are starting to smell and growing so fast

Hey she is looking good for the first 3 weeks. They don’t drink much at all at this point. Week 5 is when you will see a huge jump in drinking. I would try and keep the soil moist, but don’t over water them. Maybe 100/150ml is the most until they get a little bigger and really start drinking those water/nutes. Happy growing

Day 22 girls got watered today with double nutrition and are doing great Day 23 we had a few without yellow tips so we thought they could use a flush but some to realize it’s probably low on something so normal water tomorrow Day 24 today we found out we were not putting enough cal mag the instructions said 2ml for one liter not gal. So today we hooked them up and started some LST Day 25 we started LST on all the girls Day 27 still working on LST I over watered the girl yesterday so today the got a day off Day 28 girls got watered today bottom was a little dry everyone is handling LST well so happy to see all the bud sights

Trichomes won’t show much for a while yet, closer to the last 3 weeks of growth so you’ll be getting there soon! Looking nice and healthy so far so don’t worry they’ll come with time. Just make sure your environment and everything is on point. Your ppm is ridiculously high for autos. You shouldn’t have to top 800ppm. I’m using 525 ppm and my girls are growing nicely

You always want to look to the buds themselves and not sugar leafs when checking the trichomes. But based off what I've seen yes start with a flush and water only till harvest! 🤘😤
