So I had a little Panik moment, when the seedling started stretching so much I could almost watch. But I think I i went the right direction in #1 simply adding dry (BioBizz Light mix) soil on top, very gently pushed down just enough to straighten out the stem without forcing or putting too much stress on it. #2 i started running a fan few hours on few off just enough so the stem would slightly wobble. I read that this movement (just like in our muscle fiber) causes tiny tears, which in return actually strengthen the stem and force it to grow thicker and stronger. Like a workout ;) anyways, check out the photos , i would say she looks pretty healthy and happy. Watering: i watered exactly one week after germination. following the system 20% of pot volume. So my pot is 8L, so I would roughly give 1.6L water. I didn't feed nutrients yet. I'm just waiting untill the soil is dry enough to water again (probably tomorrow, which will be day 14). I only have biobizz try pack. On the BioBizz website it says once seedling is between 10-15cm it's time to feed. I also read that autos shouldn't be overfed. And a lot of people propose 1/4 of what is suggested on the biobizz feeding schedule. So I am planning to feed 0.5ml per Liter. And cross my fingers hoping my girl is gonna be happy with that. I'm happy for any tips or suggestions ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š

Hi there,not recommend to defoliate if there isnโ€™t a good reason to do.Like do some defoliation to lower down tent humidity,to make a good air flow if too bushy.Defoliate some leaves If they are damaged or shaded below the canopy.May be some lollipopping if there are too many popcorn buds underneath.Other than those, shouldnโ€™t do.Those fan leaves are acted like extra sources of energy for plants.Only recommend to defoliate at the start of flowering circle and again at 3rd week of flower or at the end of stretching period.Later than those period,you shouldnโ€™t stress the plant anymore and let her grow happily until harvest.Happy Growing... โœŒ๏ธ

I am at week 8 &week 4 of flower with my PPP auto. I think she's got about 3 more weeks to harvest. The flowers seem quite small comparing to some results I saw from her growers. what do uguys think? Should I cut some popcorn buds?

Ideally any lollipopping should be done before flowering, but some selective and well considered removal of the smallest flowers shouldn't impact your plant too much. After looking through your diary for this plant, I think you may have over done it with defoliation, causing your plant to being unable to produce enough energy for proper flower growth. At this stage you still have a fair way to go before harvest is close, another 4-6 weeks maybe, so you shouldn't bee too concerned with the smallish flowers just yet, but do not remove any more healthy green leaves, your plant needs every one of them to make the energy she needs for flower growth. Comparing your results to others is not really helpful, there will always be others with better results, just as there will be others with lesser results, there are just too many variables involved with cultivation to make comparisons fair. Also, with only one 150 watt light, your plant isn't exactly going to set any records. Your plant still has much growing to do, so don't get too concerned yet, but give her her best chance to perform by not removing any more leaves, unless they are yellow, for by the time they are yellow, they have served their purpose. Hope this helps,........ Organoman.

Hi guys, I'm in week 12 going on 13 with my ppp auto. Still no sight of her finishing. Am I doing something wrong? She's looking healthy, all leaves are green only the tiny bit of leave tips are turning brown. Should I keep watering and feeding her like normal?

Hi Mel, keep going for at least 2 weeks on the feed (imo) then check trichomes, your running biobizz so organic ๐Ÿ‘ once you have the trichomes where you want (I go for about 10% amber) then flush thoroughly (when your flushing you will know your getting it right as the plant will yellow in front of your eyes!!) Trichomes - clear neither use or ornament, all cloudy - max THC, amber - THC starts to degrade giving the more "I can't be arsed effect' hope this helps ๐Ÿ‘

My auto is @ week 13 from seed and week 9 of flower. Her leaves are green and healthy looking. Just tips are slight brown. I tried to check tricomes (i saw quite a few ambers, as first time grower I find it difficult to determine how many procent ambers there are). Any advise?

Looking at all your pics from this week I would say the plant as a whole has a ways to go yet. You might have a branch or two that are further along(probably the spots getting the best light) that you could cut a little early and just chop in stages. It might actually encourage it a bit.

Hi, is it normal that the leaves are so dark green? First i thought it's a sign they're super happy , but i just read a post that dark green leaves could be an indication for over feeding...? Any thoughts? Happy growing everyone!

I would normally say that is too dark a green but you can not argue with a healthy looking plant. The dark color could just be the strain/genetics you are growing.

I would flush now and harvest in a week. You have plenty of amber, technically you could harvest now. I would wait a week if the lower buds still show lots of clears.

You have two choices its just the same as any fresh bud growth in late flower you can let it mature to reach the same as the other bud which can take an extra week or so or you can just crop it and take the good with the bad the ball is in your court my friend shes looking great :) Best of luck for a hearty harvest :)

By the way dark periods do have science behind them. An article was published and showed that two days of darkness increase the THC potency by quite a bit. I am yet to locate the article but it was a proper study with all the science stuff.

Makes sense ,the only thing is that i can't change my light problem (the top buds are almost touching the led) so won't she just continue to grow more foxtails??

Make sure you light is being adjusted and your plants aren't stretching because there not getting enough light ... as flowering beings you want the stretch to take place thoe some LST might help with further height issues rather than chopping at her to slow her growth will reduce yeild

Igrowneilcommented4 years ago
@Mel_Macallan, I had to skip LST with 12 girls and about 100 small branches it's too much work , I think I'll support each branch agasint the next during flower and off my attic beams. I topped 9 girls there and didn't slow growth so I've 20 top flower site's and about 100 branches it gonna look pretty during flower ... next is x2 12 pot runs one photoperiod and one auto 12 pot all the new 2021 sweet seeds strains

Bigger box, higher intensity light or manline your plant, no much else you can do for the growth in that small of box but start cutting.
