Orange Sherbet Auto - Organic Outdoor

First signs of pistils on a few of the girls this week at day 26. This feels a bit earlier than normal for outdoor autos, I think the heat stress may have freaked them out a bit. I was hoping to get more veg in before this point, not sure anymore if I'll reach the >1m+ height I was pushing for. Still stoked that they made it this far and are recovering. I'm convinced that using the Silicon Plus just before the heat hit, helped them handle that and recover better than they would have otherwise. I'll treat plants with that from an earlier age next time. By the end of the week, one of the orange sherbets still hasn't shown any pistils, so I'm hopeful this one can veg for longer and reach her potential. I've noticed all kinds of mold growing on the alfala mulch. While it could be beneficial (and possibly introduced from the trichoderma), there is a variety of mold types and what is worrying is the black mold. I'm not taking a chance here, so I removed all the mulch and will consider something else for the rest of the grow. Started mild bloom nutes this week. Peace ✌️
