Beginning of week... Heat stess.. Light burn.. Runoff pH is out of wack.. But the colas are still so freaking massive! This will be the last week of feeding.. Then flushing for 2 weeks!.. FloraKleen is waiting for me already lol.. But the trichomes are already looking pretty close to being ready.. From what I can see.. There are about 50% cloudy/milky and 50% clear.. I can find an amber here and there.. But I think I've got this timed out perfectly!.. Cant wait to taste these super fat, dense, fruity smelling nugs! Damn she is doing magical things even after the abuse she has endured.. Awesome strain ILGM.. For sure... Mid week.. Found a few nanners here and there.. Ugh.. Understandable tho.. All the heat and light stress.. Whoops.. No seeds that I can see yet.. Just going to finish up this week by feeding at only 50% and pretty much cutting out almost 100% of Nitrogen. And not sure why.. But aldo added some Vitamin B Complex.. Its a sublingual liquid that you put under your tongue for energy or some shit.. I only put .25 mL/3 L.. Again.. Idk why lol.. Now that I have cranked the power of the light down, the leaves have kinda slowed down on the suicide rate lol.. Not as many are trying to curl up anymore.. Still kinda curled.. But they have actually opened up a little since. She is looking pretty good.. Still been watering/feedingnat 5.8 pH and the runoff is barely coming out at 6.3 pH still.. Once I see it go down to 6.0.. Then I will make the proper adjustments needed to try and keep it at 6.3.. But still no stress frok this weird pH issue crap I got goin on.. I just need to get some new coco/perlite and a new fabric pot.. Good thing I have already got all that stuff stocked up! But this has been an interesting grow for sure.. I'm ready to chop her down and see what she tastes like! And start a new girlie of course! Lol.. But as for this week.. I will have one more feed day and I am just going to do it exactly how I did today, then begin the 2 week flush! Trichomes are exactly where they need to be.. Even the trichomes on the foxtail calyxes are gettin there pretty quick too.. As far as I can tell so far... Awesome strain from ILGM.. Awesome as fuuuuck! Lol End of week.. Since I've turned the power of the light down, the leaves haven't been dying off like I thought they would be because of all the heat stress and light burn.. But tomorrow I begin the flush! Today was not a feed day so I guess I already began lol.. I used rain water (7.0 pH 30 PPM) but of course I pH'd it down to 5.8 so that the runoff would come out 6.3.. Idk why this isn't clearing out.. But tomorrow I will use the FloraKleen in pH'd rain water.. This week I may water in the AM and the PM to help flush out medium quicker. Gonna try and use just rain water for the flush.. If I run out of rain water I will use distilled.. Either of the 2 should be a good choice! But I'm so excited to be harvesting soon! On to the next!!!...

I have this autoflower that is growing really slow. Everything seems perfect as far as health, lighting, temps, humidity, pH (including runoff), PPM (including runoff).. She has been growing slow since day 1... Why??? Pic is 8th week from seed.

Looking @ your weeks she has been looking fine. There has been lots of growth. You have done lots of training to her. That helps to keep her short and aids in new growth from below. You wanted to keep her short and you have done a good job @ that. Gl the rest of the way.

This plant looks rly overwatered 😨 and if you water the lady with 3l its way to much πŸ˜… but the Flower looks tasty 😡
Professor_Chaos
Professor_Chaos
@TheThiccBud, Problem: Dark green leaves, shiny leaves, clawing, weak stems, and overall slow growth. Marijuana leaves that are nitrogen toxic often get β€œThe Claw” or talon-like leaves that are bent at the ends. They also do an odd curving (or cupping) that is often mistaken for overwatering, but is unique to nitrogen toxicity. You can see a β€œclawing” leaf in the pictures below (click each picture for a close-up). Leaves that turn into claws often start turning yellow and dying if the nitrogen toxicity is not treated, much like a nitrogen deficiency, only the leaves will continue to get more and more clawed. Leaves eventually turn yellow or brown and fall off. You can tell if yellowing is caused by too much nitrogen because the rest of the plant will be dark green, and the yellowing leaves will turn into claws first. That is from growweedeasy dot com

Professor_Chaos
@TheThiccBud, I thought that is from too much Nitrogen.. I could be wrong.. Maybe I'll give it a try.. Water every other day or something.. I just like to make sure I have plenty of runoff.. Salt build ups suck. Thanks growmie.. This girl is a couple days from harvest. Cant wait!

@Professor_Chaos, I think the leaves are far too dark green and through my own experience it looks like they would get to much water. you know? πŸ˜… this leaves are small has Darkgreen color and grow weird 😡 but your flower looks amazing πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜‡

Just for future referance, as it may help out alot in your future grows to look at the seed to harvest time for the strain you are growing. I am growing the same thing (ILGM Zkittlez auto) and I am going into week 11 ready to harvest. The Zkittlez auto takes about 8-11 weeks from seed to harvest on average, and rarely will ever go almost 16 weeks. The reason why you had nanners could of definately been from the stress of heat and everything, but they were also likely due to the plant being over its harvest period and it was going into survival mode and trying to reproduce itself to make seeds for next year to keep her genetics going. Thats what they do when they go longer than they are supposed too.

thanks man...I'll definately make sure to follow yours. I'll be updating tonight at some point with new pictures. The colors on this girls sugar and fan leaves are incredible. So much damn purple. I left alot of leaves too. The main cola's bottom is completely blocked out its so thick with bud and sugar and fan leaves. They are rock hard. I'm very excited. The smell is unbelievable. @Professor_Chaos,
Professor_Chaos
Professor_Chaos
@TJshortstop24, Oh yeah thats right! Well I'm gonna follow along! Yeah mine was stacking like a sativa so I let her keep going.. But yeah I left alot of leaves so it was difficult to check the bottom nugs.. I wish I would have now.. But I wont make that mistake again. Halfway thru the flush on my 2 ethos stains. They are both perfectly right on track but I feel I should leave them just 1 extra week. My last ethos strain I harvested right when they said.. Alot of cloudy but not enough amber.. It was an ok high.. Very paranoid tho 😳😳😳 hoping to avoid that with these girls.. But yeah bro Im gonna follow along on your harvest!

Its actually CBN that it converts to when over ripe. THC will convert to CBN which gives you that very sedative sleepy headache weed exactly like you said. I have been checking the bottoms of the buds and they are right at the harvest point. The tops of the buds are still growing really nice. I wouldn't say the new bud growth is exactly foxtails, as it forming nicely into the buds already fully developed. If I was going by the trichomes on the tops of the buds then I could see where you let them go way too long, because the trichomes on the very top are still clear with only a few cloudy here and there. As you harvest though they will actually fill up with thc and get a little bit cloudy. You will allways still have some clear trichomes in the buds at certain locations but as long as the majority of the lower and middle buds are cloudy with some amber, then you are good to harvest. I will be putting my Zkittlez auto in dark for 48-72 hours, depending on how my weekend schedule is. Then I will be cutting down in the early morning of the end of dark period, with no light at all after the extended dark period. Then I am shooting for atleast a 7 day dry. I would be happy with a 7 to 14 day dry. @Professor_Chaos,

@Rock_n_Roll_Randy, HydroFarm came out with a new one.. A little cheaper than their last one.. About $140.. Some bad reviews.. But it seems about right to me.. 12 inches from my lights I'm seeing 1000+ PPFD so I seem to have gotten a good one! Thanks again growmie!

@Rock_n_Roll_Randy, Thanks growmie.. She actually isnt all that great.. I may have pushed her for too long.. I now see all the amber trichomes and nanners were everywhere.. Smh.. But she still tastes ok and does the job.. Just have to smoke a little more.. Ready for my next run in my 2x4 with the OPTIC SLIM 320H.. Beast of a light and I just got a PAR meter too.. No more guessing with the lights! I love it! Thanka again growmie!

Nice Zkittlez Autoflower!
Professor_Chaos
Professor_Chaos
@DoDrugs420, Thanks growmie! I fucked her up pretty bad tho. Burnt off the terps mostly.. And I JUST read that apparently the DLI is already good enough when you keep the PPFD in a veg range.. Between 300 - 600 ΞΌmols... Since the plant is getting 18 hours of light, the DLI is right where it needs to be until harvest.. Plus my environment is pretty warm and humid.. And I think I pushed her for too many weeks.. Nanners everywhere.. No mature seeds.. But seeds were starting.. Foxtails.. Oh it was a horrible run lol.. She did grow ok tho.. I wish I had known that I should have left my light further.. This plant smelled amazing when she was growing.. But now that I know how delicate trichomes are.. Not gonna make that mistake again.. She made some fat colas.. And like I said, smelled great while she was growing.. So disappointed in myself lolol

That is some weird bud structure though. I have found there Zkittlez auto to be all over the place. The ones that hermed were all completely different. I had one runt that was about half the size of the other 3 that hermed first. And then I had two monsters that were growing amazing. I thought I was going to end up with over 200 grams just with those two the way they were going, but sure enough out came the balls. Thank God I destroyed them and ended up with one successful Zkittlez plant. ILGM was very good about it and actually gave me a 99 dollar gift code to use to buy another 5 pack with no questions asked. Thats how I ended up with the Bruce Banner. I planted one of every strain I have and save all the rest of the beans for after this grow where I can get a general feel on how each strain likes to grow and there tendencies and everything. Then next grow I will plant all of them for a huge run.

The buds on my zkittlez auto aren't then biggest buds in the world, but they are pretty damn fat and juicy but they good thing is they are as hard as a friggin rock. And the frost has been pretty damn good too. The colors it is turning right now are absolutely gorgeous. The buds and all the calyxes are more purple than barney and the fan leaves are turning a sick ass yellowish green with purple tint all throughout the leaves. This fade it is doing is pretty awesome. I nailed the timing of my last top dress perfect to get it to fade these amazing colors
