Hello, currently on week 4 of 8. I might be me but im sensing a decrese in growth rate (height mostly), althought the vegetation on the nodes is defitnly improving. Is this going to be the final size? When do they stop growing? Im not very optimistic about this one. Can i get some advice? Thanks again, loves from Argentina

Hello, now on week 6. Big upgrades. I changed the light from 65w coold (+6000k) to 105w warm(2700k) and i also close the distance to the bulb by adding another pot under. I bended 3 more side branches and another is going straght up catching up to the main cola height. I believe this is good news. A lot more of pre flowers are also showing up. As usual im open to suggestions and help. Thanks again 27/3 - Updated Top Crop Nutrients. And a couple of new pictures

Hello everybody,beginning week 7 with a nice boost. Im starting to see a lot of growth on the main and side branches. Also flowers are starting to show up. Now using Top crop nutrients. I bought a Ph regulator, now watering at 6.5 Accordingly to the breeder only 18 days are left to harvets. What do you guys think? Will she be ready? Im thinking am probably gonna have to wait at least on more week.

Hello Everybody, now on day 50! According to breeder only 11 days to go, i now think its probably closer to a month. So im gonna continue with nutes for at least 2 more weeks. I notice some big vertical growth from the main and the 3 other big side branches. Still doing some sort of LST as you can see on the pics. Buds finally are starting to show some growth also. My only concern its that i see the top bud a little hidden inseide all those leaves pointing up. Is that normal? Thanks again. Any advice is welcome!

Hello everybody! Currently on day 61 . Stop with big one , only feeding her bloom and candy. According to the breeder its time to harvest. I believe she still has a couple of weeks, althought im seeing a lot of brown pistols. I wanna hear your thoughts on the matter . Also is ti common for the top leaves to point upwards like that? As always thanks in advance for any help! Best smokes from Argentina! Edit: added some pics under microscope

Awesome week! After 2 washes, the top is starting to look normal again (now i realize it was very over fed ). All the buds are starting to gain some weight and getting frosty. That dark green color of before is also vanishing. Any advice is welcome as always.

Another awesome week, colors trully emerging right now. I wonder how much long does she has. Its been almost 90 days. But after the low lighting, nut burn and heat strees i cant really complain. She has a great smell and look. Probally gonna let her in for another week, if i can i will post pics of trichomes. Thanks again, Any advice is welcome.

I'm growing this strain also, think it would take 12 weeks to complete
Beerus
Beeruscommented7 years ago
@Mason, i was thinking the same about mine. But it could be because she had some nut burn. Yours look just fine.

The breeders timeline is subjective to optimal growing conditions (perfection from genes and environment). Its just a base timeline. Your plants will not be ready for harvest in my opinion for that date, a while longer. Just dont kill'em! :)

Hellhazardcommented7 years ago
@Beerus, My Red Poison took roughly 90 days if I remember correctly.... Your girl looks much more stretched between nodes. That suggests the lights were/are using are not intense enough. Lighting can really slow down timeline You will have a better gauge of when they will be finished as you approach that time and people will comment. You'll have a better guesstimate in a couple of more weeks.. Just dont kill'em :D:D:D Good luck bro

@Hellhazard, thanks for the comment! I knew they were behind schedule i was looking to confirm it. I believe they are still left maybe a month?

bobo420commentedweek 47 years ago
They will continue to grow new branches, leaves and nodes as long as she's in veg, then stretch a bit then (almost) stop in flower. She's going to gain some more height for sure. Looking good so far ;)

bobo420commented7 years ago
@Beerus, yeah, no problem, you'll get significant differences from the same strain, just different phenomes sometimes, even from clones sometimes, it's normal ;)
Beerus
Beeruscommented7 years ago
@bobo420, Thanks man! Probably just newbie fears! Im just amazed by the size difference between the two of them!

Check this guys YouTube brother "mr. Canucks grow" he grows the best autos in Canada and he gives great advice on when to lst and such. Lst this late will stunt the growth even more, no defoliating anymore etc. doing anything besides a netting will do more harm then good. Looks great for such a little light. Your doing a good job. Just don't overanylize a auto
Beerus
Beeruscommented7 years ago
@PurpleKoolaid, Great advice! thanks! I will take a look once im back from work. I have little space so its nice to learn techniques to make the best out of it.

Follow me, I'm germinating now , gonna be starting 5 autos, and 5 regular unfems in the next week when I gather pics

@PurpleKoolaid, let me know once you start so i can follow the diary!

bobo420commentedweek 57 years ago
Generally, LST is done during veg, because then you have vegetative growth, once they go into flower, most of the energy is going into making buds. Hopefully you can catch some of that veg. growth before she starts to go full flower
Beerus
Beeruscommented7 years ago
thats what is said on the guide. It's best during veg, but you can do it all the life cycle. I know shes small, just trying to get the best out of her. I just uploaded photos from today. Thanks again for all the help.
