Day 2 today and she is growing tall! Nothing special happening at this point she just needs plain water and some love. The only thing that concerns me is that she got pretty tall and I am not sure how will this affect her. Day 6 Got her some support because she was kind of falling. Other than that comparing to my other attempts she is so good, getting double the size in the same time frame. Peaceee✌️

Day 8 She grows very well, getting closer to her 1rst topping. She is very very tall but we'll see how that goes. Fed her 250ml water with bio grow. Day 11 The time has come for her to be topped for the first time. Also applied light lst to shape her. This is an experiment to see how autos react to this and I hope it will work. Fed her 500ml water with alcamic and activera to help her bounce quickly. Day 12 She bounced back like a pro! Day 14 She continues growing good and there is a second topping coming tomorrow. She seems to respond very well to HST. She is fed every 2 days water/food/water/food

Day 15 She was topped for the second time and fed with 500ml water with acti-vera. She responded very well. Day 17 She is getting bigger every day and she is very strong even though we are chopping her up 😂 we keep adjusting the lst because she is strong and she keeps pushing the wirer off of her. Overall very happy with this plant. Seems invincible 👏 Day 20 The topping we did worked very well and the new branches are growing very fast now. Lst is adjusted every day to keep her short and bushy. Day 21 Last day of the week today. First small defoliation and some more lst. New branches are growing tall and strong. Watered with food today. Till next week ✌️✌️👌

Hello fellow growers. Overall a nice week, she gained so much growth and defoliated twice✌️🤞 (day 24 and 27) We adjust the lst probably every day to keep her happy and as straight as possible 🙊 She is getting water every two days water/nutes/water. Sharing a Mars hydro ts600 along with a 42watt 3500k led with 3 other plants. We will switch to bloom nutes next week because yesterday (27days) I saw the first pre flowers🍀. She is doing great so far, very healthy, the only thing she got was some wind burn but nothing to be concerned about. 😁 Until next week 👌 Happy growing 🍀🍀

Hello fellow growers! Our girl is very healthy and growing like a champion. 💪 She seems invincible no matter what we do to her. She is defoliated every time she looks bushy but only leaves are cut. We are not sure about what bud site we should keep and what to cut. But I think she will tell us when it's time. She has definitely entered flowering so we have switched to bloom nutes to help her a bit. We also put her in this yellow cage because the pot is so small to do proper lst and to move her with more ease. She is so big and currently ruling the tend! She gets 1,5lt water every 2 days ✌️ she got a bit thirsty👅💦 I'm sooo looking forward to see her beautiful full flowers 🌸 Till next week 👌✌️✌️

Hello mates! Week 6 has passed and she is rocking the tend, growing like a pro and showing her potential. She is a beast, every time we cut even a leaf she is growing twice as fast. Flower time is here and by day 42 we can see small budlets. The week coming is crucial. We should make a big defoliation, cut the popcorn and keep the strongest shoots. We are aiming to keep as much as we can. This week she was defoliated at day 39 and lst at day 36 and 40. Every time she looks like she can have a trim or training, to get light to each little budlet. She is taking 1,5ml water every 2 days and now she is sharing the lights which two friends. The third one is in the dark almost ready to get the chop. Can't wait to see her full flowers! 🍁🌹

What is this deficiency or maybe toxicity and whats the solution? She is fed with biobizz chart instructions but with every other watering. She is big so I'm guessing I should water with nutes every time? She showed this first week into flowering.

Your at the stage where those fabric planters are getting full of roots which make the water start channeling through your dirt like a river flows. Path to least resistance. Let the planter sit in it runoff water for a wwhileto soak some water back into the planter. When you leave dry spots in your root zone it creates these spots, usually mid to near the top of the plant. Also check your runoff waters ph and ec levels, make sure everything is good. Cheers

Hello growers! What a week for her! First of all she is flowering very well and lst has mostly worked giving us an even-ish plant and canopies. She has shown us deficiencies, either phosphorus or nitrogen. To deal with this she was fed with her flowering nutes along with some grow this time just to give her a boost and some more nitrogen. After feeding her she has started bouncing back! She is an auto, but apparently a very big one so I think more nutrients makes sense at this point. Lesson learned and from now on all of my plants will be getting their grow nutes until their vertical growth stops. In other news her nuggets are getting bigger day by day and they look already a little shiny. There is a small amount of unidentified smell in the room but nothing too much. Hope to see her greener and healthier next week! Peaceee! ✌️✌️
