1 of 4 plants Buds - big , resionous and firm , quite firm already without any drying should be big quater Oz buds on top with smaller gram buds down below , already I've noticed in this grow this was one of the topped and trained in a SCROG setting and it achieved great results , these big buds are worth losing the tops as all side braches grew fairly even canopy and a very top heavy flower setting where all the bottoms where stripped in week 6 after STRECTH has ended do not attempt with flower still in strecth as this will result in stunned growth ... bottom stripping , ScroG and TOPPING all played a role in this successful harvest ... we managed to push power up to all branches and creat topswhen we need the plant to do this in nature this does not happen although we can change the plants behaviour with various types of training and techniques... This was my frist topping and ScroG without help as a 1 and 11 plants to attended for and not much time on my hands personally . With that said I choose too make as most of it as possible automated with lights fans and heating and humidity controller was all nessacary and pretty cheap , I used all amazon budget materials with free shipping ... everything was still on a super budget ... total cost running for 11 plants for electrical stuff running cost and nutes soil ... everything less than 1500$ 1200€ 1000£ something around this ... total , my frist two plants have covered my cost , I intend to smoke it all people ... Some fine smoke it's gonna be Anyone to say it's too early the buds on this plant where ready The buds on cream Mandarin xl auto aren't as super dense nugs as the gorilla girl but dense buds none the less Gorilla girl buds are rock solid nugs literally I hit my chin of the plant and it fucking intally scared me as I though it was something more solid than a plant within millisecond I realised it was a plant ... stoners mind .. . BLACK CREAM, getting chopped soon it's nearly ready it's buds are as solid but massive it size , these buds are gonna rival in weight but 100% not in plant weight the last number 3# pheno the green black cream will undoubtedly put on better weight as it's size is pretty big and number 2# it's very very small plant Overall over the next few weeks we will be doing a staggered harvest as expected and WET trimming buds into cardboard boxes for now then once room is finished I'll turn it into a drying room and hopefully hang one or two plants whole Gorilla girl xl auto still has a dank peppery smell seriously dank Black cream auto is tropical fruits and Berrys Cream Mandarin xl auto is defainly a citrus heaven with that earthy background, you'd think I was putting pepper on my oranges earlier today with the Ona PRO block 170g you can't smell anything from outside the plastic mylar which is far from sealed although the smell is trapped inside and is filtered out by a brand new RAM 180m2 hr filter with 180m2 inline filter pulling air out of the tent as the lights have temps at 23.0c and lights are now 24 hours as the stuff drying I can't risk mould or temp fluctuations and humidity changing and causing mould and damaging the entire harvest though I think plants will preform firm even after damaging some leaves I'm confident I can finish harvest with bigger quialty buds pushing them in the last week or two is a risk I'm willing to take

Amazing results at 60% strength around 450 ppm is what I'd recommend for autos Mabey even 50% and plants could thrive
Buddy is great to increase the amounts of PK available to plant during flower , cal mag adds calcium
Great ph down and up be careful I use a few drops per 14liters very little needed

What an amazing strain to grow ... I topper this plant trained her with some LST and by god she produce top shelf quality buds after 8 weeks curing this stuff is smelling like an orange 🍊 was drizzled over the bud ... hard to explain but it's dead orange 🍊 I'm smelling and what a tasty strain as being in the uk mate the now EVERYWHERE stardawg strains this has been a wake up call to autos not having the same flavour profile , these autos had some loud terpens and flavanoids . The effect where strong on the cream mandarin and gorilla girl was a real heavy hitter haven't had green make me feeling slightly sick feeling being super greedy at the start. I must say I had a total of 500 grams which was amazing from this grow

Hi Bro, As you are growing in soil, the less nutrient the better.Personally, I prefer a slight tips burn on leaves to ensure that the plants are getting enough nutrient.But increasing your dosage only if you know you have proper pH subtrate and too little run off ppm(EC).Happy Growing... ✌️

I think 600 ppm it's to low in 6 week. If u have a pets inside try 35grade for 30 min. But I'm sure, I have problems with nutrients. 600ppm it's to low.

Hi Bro, I can’t tell you exactly what the problem is.But for me, I would check my water pH, ppm and run off pH, ppm.If they are not correct, fixed then first.Then give normal nutrition for flowering.Check are they still spreading or not.That’s all I would do for now.Another thing is plants are less defensive during the flowering stage and they are focus on bud production.So leaves might show some symptoms.You should focus on your buds for pests, mold or rot.Happy Growing... ✌️

Would you say that long I've removed all bottom foliage and bottom bud site's also only the top 2 foot of canopy remains just all tops are evenly spread with 2 400w lights at the moment there responded better with the foliage removed and started going faster into flower .... all 11 have bottom completely removed to speed up flowering or will this not work

It's pretty hard watering in the attic takes longer cause the water I can't risk going through my home but apart from that everything is on auto .. temps lights and humidity also automated, next grow I'll also have more fan and a humidifier and a humidity controller for both so only one can run at a time also a cooler for the tempuature control until will leave it totally auto apart from watering which I'll always want to do by hand as each plant can be tailored to your grow needs .. drop me a mail I'm always free to talk weed

Organomananswered grow question 3 years ago
They are pretty close to harvest and I would suggest not giving any more nitrogen/nutrients, they will finish just fine if you continue with what you are already doing. The leaves going yellow is normal and is due to your plant reabsorbing the nutrition in the leaves for use as an energy source to mature the flowers. It is more efficient for your plant to do this, rather than grow flowers AND make nutrition from new during this stage of flowering, and is one thing defoliation advocates fail to understand. Cannabis needs the old leaves as a fuel/nutrition source for when she is flowering. Removing the leaves while they are green means the plant must divide her energy between growing flowers and making nutrition (carbs, sugars, amino acids etc) from new, whereas had the leaves been left on, the plant can use nearly all the energy for flower growth and obtain her nutrition (carbs, sugars, amino acids etc) that she has already manufactured and "stored" in her older leaves and waiting for use during flowering, and this is why the so called "fade" happens and why the older leaves will go yellow on otherwise healthy and well fed plants during flowering. Hope this helps,.......... Organoman.

The plant looks amazing and super frosty, but those pistils are still pretty white indicating she is not ready to be harvested yet, give her more time, so the pistils can turn amber and start going back into the buds.

@mr_weeds_autos @Sweet_seeds @Bluntzilla @Roberts anyone any opinions I did notice when I've run the girls at 769ppm I done minor damage but feed is reduced to 450ppm and will reduce futher over the next 10 days then stop altogether ... plants are still drinking 1.5 liter or more daily, air exchange was ramped up 180m2 per hour and lights are able to run at 1060w at 21oC heater is on constant and got Ona PRO block 170g ... my good any concern from the smell of the plants is gone these little blocks are amazing... I couldn't smell the girls at all within the tent and plan on ordering a few more for drying as these are powerful little blocks ... natural essintal oils safe for plants BRISTISH Irish Russian French Italian these little blocks do super at hiding any smell related to the product growing... says works for 4 weeks I need it to only work for 2 weeks and then I'll replace it ...

MORE INFO 09-3-21 Plants are 6 weeks from seed today and are going into mid flower so 2 to 4 weeks left on all plants Lights where dropped to 400w each and fixed heat issue and watering has been great and was able to get plants back into super power mood as the pictures for next week will show ... Humidity has not been to bad and the new dehumidifier is working like a charm as it can pull 12 liters a day from the air Also trellis netting has keep plants as open as possible and created a very good growth rate all over some plants will produce 6 main colas or more Removed all bottom flower site's and fan leaves to open up more air flow and to push all power now towards the top flowers and within 3 hours the plants looked the best they have been this winter grow ... CREAM MANDARIN and GORILLAGIRL are in power to finish in 2/3 weeks at most as there flying now BLACK CREAM is taking some what longer to flower and still in strecth thoe I don't mind the amount of flower site's is pretty impressive and there going purple all 3 that left ... Happy growing peeps

These are looking pretty good. I see a few that look like they could use a touch more nitrogen. but over all nice. I have never grown in soil. Always coco. For me. I find autos do not like fed any where near as heavy as photos. You didn't say which GH you use. I use the flora grow line and only run about 700ppm with my autos. That is with all my additives. I will be adding my next grow. 4 autos and 2 or 3 photos. Man I love growing 😀

This week has went amazing like the rest all I have to say is I gave a 33% feed of N AND MICRO with bloom 100% with buddy 100% and will switch back and forth from this and ripen as it's only PK ONLY and flowers are in serious demand as there's ScrOG I've mostly all top colas on all branches apart from the UNTOPPED plants to compare at the end ... Some difference in them now ... topped and trained autos are miles ahead ... yes ahead the plants loved it the UNTOPPED plants and untrained will yeild a lot less and also smaller buds all over... easy to tell what's what now
Igrowneil
Igrowneil
@justright, the same myself I'm using tri part it's in the other weeks , I should add that I did feed them a little N P K this time thoe I found leaving them to want the N is giving me some better results missing a feed now and again to allow the plants to use any build up in leaves or soil alike and feed PK NUTES only at the start of the week as there in late flower they need this every feed but the micro and grow I don't think they used much since week 5 I feed them 3 times N but micro and PK the rest ... ppm is also in dairy mines is around 550 with everything in as 700 gave them tip burn so 650 was the max after that ... I've had little to no problems from start some minor shit as always with every grow .... soil is great with fabric pots I feed at a lower amount so I don't get any build up of salts within my soil as I've learnt from that mistake already ... my next grow will be the same again only a different seedbank is sponsored me
