The wait is getting harder and harder but every day new hairs, I'm noticing she's starting to look REALLY tired all over and feeding doesn't really balance the defs. any more, I think she's getting old and ready to call it a day, I'm certainly ready to call it a day πŸ˜‚ A few other people I've spoken to have recommended giving her another week or so to really ripen, but I really think she's done, I've not flushed but I'm thinking maybe I'll flush and let her completely dry out one more time then we'll chop her and put things to dry! Today I should be able to pick up the required equipment to start over again πŸ˜† Going to do the exact same strain, but I'm adding an additional 23w CFL to increase the light levels a bit more (my cheap LED blurples were as predicted not great) Can't wait to smoke her, really happy with the results for a first grow with minimal lighting :D

I'm not giving her too much water at the moment, she's definitely growing and I'm conscious it's only been 3 days since she was put under grow lights but thought by now we would have had more growth

I think that growth is normal for such a early stage. In future i strongly recommend starting in a small pot and then proceeding to a larger one once it has rooted out. Be careful with the watering as it’s such a small plant and can be over watered easily. You can always add more but can’t take away. Hope this helpsπŸ‘

I've been slowly lowering them as the plant grows, now I'm starting to get nodes but they're pretty close together (see grow question image) Wondering if I should lift the lights to encourage stretching or leave them alone General health check would be awesome too πŸ˜„

That little girl is looking great! I'd say, your lighting should be fine at that height. She doesnt seem stressed at all. Some plants start out with tight internodes like that, even different phenotypes, under the same lighting, can produce vastly different spacing. I have 2 criticals from dinamed growing that show this off very well. Cheers and happy growing

I've not fed in 5 days and this discolouration only started 2 days ago, I'm really thinking it's light stress, I've already turned off one of the lights instead of lifting the lights, more looking for reassurance I've DX'd the problem correctly :D

Hi! In my experience light stress looks a little different. The leaves might start to droop and the green healthy color starts to fade to lighter green in the top parts where the light intensity is the strongest but I don't think it will make the tiof of the leaves yellow only. So i'd say it is something else but you should not be worried 'cos she's still young and fragile but I'm sure she will grow out of it if you just give her time and keep growing her like you used to!

It seems like my girls stem has burst out of it's outer layer, is this something to be worried about? I feel like it's because she's just had another growth spurt and in a few days this will heal over, new grower so naturally paranoid about everything, uploading todays pics next

So I know auto-flowers grow short, but she's still about 10cm tall and smashing lateral growth Do any auto-flower growers know when the height starts to come? I'd be worried she was stunted if it wasn't for the new node forming quickly once again looking for reassurance

Let's say she could be taller..... What about your PH? Sometimes the nature of the seed is like this but most of the time it is on us. In this case I see the light colour of the leaves that means nitrogen deficiency. Nitrogen needed to grow properly and in this case I think the problem is the nitrogen. She will flower soon. I highly recommend higher dosage of bat guano or whatever that can provide good amount of nitrogen. PH imbalance also causes this that's why I asked because the plant roots can not absorb nutriteint when the PH is improper. Hope helps. :)

Stepping up the lights and LSTing has made a huge difference, as well as a healthy application of Humic acids Anything I can be doing at this point to help her on the way to a bountiful harvest?

Hi there, Maximizing yield is the goal of all growers.As you are growing Auto, they’ve very limited amount of time to maximize.LST for an auto is all I would do to make her bigger.The less stress the better for an auto.If you don’t have any plan to use better equipments, you can maximize your yield by nutrient.Proper feeding and use of booster can make you big difference.For now, stay on your LST track and spread the branches as many as you can before it shows any pre flower.When she goes into flowering circle, use flowering booster like P/K booster, big bud, bud candy, etc... to boost.At the end of flowering period, use nute like overdrive will make your plant,the biggest one.Happy growing... ✌️

After looking at your diary, I would stop with the hydrogen peroxide(!) and I would suggest never giving your plants distilled water. Distilled water has nothing in it, such as dissolved salts, calcium etc. and when applying it to your plants can actually "suck" these dissolved salts out of your plants cells via osmosis. If you are concerned with chlorine etc. in your tap water, just fill a bucket or three with tap water and let them stand for a couple of days before using the water. Leaving the buckets of water to stand will cause most of the chlorine and any other chemicals to evaporate, leaving you with well balanced and clean/chemical free water. Your babies will pick up in a few days and continue growing normally. If you are really keen, you could give them some sort of seaweed extract/tonic, as this will really pick them up quickly and is also good to use periodically as a soil stimulant. If you live where you get pretty warm in summer or quite cold in winter, using the seaweed tonic a day or two before the extreme weather hits, will help your plants battle through those temperature nightmares. Hope this helps... Organoman.

I've got 2 bud sites that are covered by 1 leaf, I'm itching to take that one leaf away to expose those budsites as I can't bend it out of the way because the stem is still too short, will this shock the plan at a critical stage? Am I better waiting a few days?

Your not in the flowering stage yet and that plant is gonna change it’s structure drastically between now and when those bud sites are gonna need light, that leaf is not gonna be there come bud time as the plant will stretch out. best to let her grow and do the pruning of leaves like this just before flowering flip or just after, but be very selective on what to remove, because these leaves do feed the bud sites there connected too later on in flowering. Cheers!πŸ’¨

More a question out of Idol curiosity, I've managed to train an even canopy with what will hopefully be 7 main colas, and there's a few sites that aren't in the top canopy that look like they could do well Will the stems continue to thicken with a fan on them when flower starts?

Your plants know what to do, they will be fine. More of a problem with stretched plants growing without not enough light. Yours seems quite stocky, so should cope with flower weight.

Is a night time temp of 15degrees the cause? I can't keep it up without making it too hot, or could this just be a phosphorus def.? I fed her well yesterday and yet to see any difference, as far as I can see this isn't typical for the strain

Frigaultanswered grow question 3 years ago
Many strain that don't have purple trains in them, actual have a little purple hue when expise to cool temps. Some nutrient becimes les available at lower temperature. A plant with temps below 20 degrees can express color change at the tips of theire growth going from cool to hot during night and light exposure.. has long has night don't get below yiur 15 i would nit worry esoecialy if day time is warmer. Since it can start affect growth eventually. Try to get something to raise nightbtemos in there 20 if you can. I tiny space heater on a control timer wirks great. You make it turn in when temps are below a certain temp and turn if when it reach a proper level.. you can get the heater for around 20$ on amazon. The temp controler will be a few more bux but well worth the $ in my opinion and can even be use with a cooler djring hit summer.

Uploaded a full photoshoot of everything going on with the plant. Based on the images from my grow I'd love some feedback/input about how she's looking. Is the Yellowing of the leaves the normal yellowing? (except the nute burn) Should the Pistils be going brown already?

Troy_Farmsanswered grow question 3 years ago
She is small, but only 3rd week of flower and an auto so no worries! I would recommend Defoliate some of the undergrowth, definitely the yellow leaves, and remove some other choice leaves that are blocking lower bud sites to allow light to access deeper and allow for buds to fill in more. To help with the same idea of letting more light into deeper parts of the plant, I would also use some ties to space the branches out as much and even as possible. Combination of those two should help make the most of this girl. Leaves should not be turning yellow as she is still early flowering. However your plant is pretty bushy so the bigger lower leaf might go, nothing to worry about as long as the other leaves are healthy. 8 weeks of flower is average. Hairs will go from white to orange depends on the strain, but it happens near the end of flowering, as that is the last stage for the pistils, but usually after 4 or 5 weeks of flower they will have a few, sometimes more and sometimes none at all, sometimes it takes 7 or 8 weeks. Depends on strain and growing conditions. For your girls here, I would guess pistils will start to orange over in another 3 weeks or so.

Totally normal! nothing to worry about its just residue from the stem's development. Plant looks great!! I'd suggest just increasing the amount of water you're giving her to reduce the salt buildup you have in the medium (make sure there's at least 20-30% runoff) Besides a little Phosphorous and Potassium buildups, which are probably due to the banana tea, your plant looks very healthy!! try not to defoliate any more at this stage of flowering since you need those leaves to produce energy which produces buds!! Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)

I think we've made it! It's been a long slog and a serious learning curve but by golly she's looking delicious and she's swollen loads in the past week or so, her lowest leaves are going yellow despite being fed every other day, is she getting ready to go lights out? 😍

@GreenFingeredLT, Yes I mean pistils, I noticed they are longer and get brown earlier than mine. The plant will continue to produce constantly white hairs, you have to trim when 75% of pistils are brown. In last 2 weeks I noticed that buds gets thicker, good luck!
GreenFingeredLT
GreenFingeredLT
@giggi, You mean the pistils? (the white hairs?) if so I was a bit confused they were going brown from very early in flower but she keeps producing white hairs daily so I think she's still in active flower maybe 2 more weeks? I'm just balancing a K deficiency at the moment so hopefully there's enough time for a good growth spurt, seemed like yours put on a fair amount of weight towards the end?

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ @Taito, I put the entirety of the blame for the growth on two things (and they're sure not talent and experience!); 1.

"Feeding" the roots oxygen with highly diluted hydrogen peroxide every 3rd water or so
