Great week of progress especially for #4 and #5 who have shown pistils. I continue to tuck leaves and expose tops but it's getting harder and harder. Their stems are getting nice and thick. #6 is about ready to be bent over.
I am giving them a lot more water now until I see some runoff so I know the bottom of the pot is getting wet. The big ones are getting about 1.5 liters every 2-3 days.
#6 got some little brown spots on the leaves but didn't get any worse. Maybe I got water droplets on it.
I had a small bug infestation of white flies and gnats from an outdoor photoperiod that I brought inside. I hunted them multiple times daily for a few days with a tweezer and it looks like I won the war fairly easily without using pesticides.
I increased the light to 100% and lowered it 24" from the big plants. They are taking it well.
End of week 5 from seed
@JabzXtreme, and your sure its not bud rot ? if the plant is in flower to long the bud can start to rot. 6 months ago I lost half my harvest ( 6 ounce) to mold in the curing jars so I know the pain. as for avoiding bud rot from age keep an eye on the trichomes
@The_Bearded_Grower, I guess. I have a lot of air flow with 3 fans on high. The humidity was only about 55% usually, except it would go up after watering. I have a little dehu in the tent but I guess it sucks. I only empty it like once a week.
What kinda fungicide you using? Looking for options to have on hand. These are looking killer! I’ve noticed a lot of these WW autos get some dark color late in flower, pretty cool! I had an ILGM amnesia haze autoflower that looked very similar with the purple tips of buds developing. Good luck with harvest!

@Ezzjaybruh, thanks for your comment! I'm using organic Grower's Ally Fungicide Concentrated. Used 3 tablespoons with a gallon of water in a Vivosun Sprayer, and it was enough to cover all 4 plants making them dripping wet. Next day no mildew on leaves and did not come back. Some of the deep lower foliage sugar leaves mildew still stayed, but I tried not to oversoak the buds so that's my fault for not hitting those areas enough. I'm very surprised how well it worked with only 1 application. It did turn all white hairs brown though, but buds are still growing and producing new white hairs the next day.
