Germination
4 years ago
All 4 of the seeds were germinated in soil (Biobizz light mix) and covered with humidity domes (removed for photos) They have been put in with my other 3 autos, so are on the same lighting schedule (18/6)

Everything has been going fine so far. 3 of the plants have had their humidity domes removed and are looking fine. The last plant is looking a little bit funky, even though everything was kept the same as the other 3 plants. I'm going to keep it under its dome for another day or 2, in case it's a humidity issue. I'm just lightly watering them with pH adjusted water after letting the soil dry out.

All of the plants have shown a decent amount of growth over the last week. Still small though, so I don't intend to start introducing veg nutrients for another week. The small funky looking plant still looks funky but is definitely recovering. Still unsure about what caused it to go all screwy though. This plant may end up being gifted to my girlfriend in order to make sure that I don't have airflow/humidity problems, as the 4 dwarfs are currently sharing a space with 3 other autos.

And then there were three. In order to maintain good airflow/light penetration to all of the plants in my small tent, I decided to give away the smallest of the dwarfs. Something something something - needs of the many - yada yada yada. In short, I've learned not to treat my grow tent like it's a clown car. So I kept the 3 healthiest of the dwarfs. All 3 seem to be showing signs of going into flower (pistil growth) This seems a bit early compared to the other 3 autos that I am growing, but I'm sure I read that this is normal for this strain. (21 days from seed though?!) decided to start them out on nutrient now.

This week has shown a good amount of flower growth, so I decided to up the bloom nutrient slightly. I decided to reduce the amount of calmag used as I think the plants got a little burnt last time (orange spots on leaves)

The plants have been going fine this week. Some yellowing of lower fan leaves, but that's fine. Nothing really spectacular to report with the dwarfs this week.

This week has gone pretty smoothly. I'm now feeling the downsides of growing in such a small pot. The plants are getting hungry faster now. I neglected to water them for 1 day longer than I should have and the plants did not like it at all. They are all fine though, with some drooping leaves and yellowing of lower fan leaves. I fed them and they bounced back within a day. No biggie. I decided to up their nutrients a little and will continue to do so incrementally for the remainder of flowering. I am continuing to stick to my decision to not do any training at all on the dwarfs, just removing dead leaves as it is needed.

Bloom is moving along steadily. The small pot size is really starting to suck. I thought it wouldn't be so annoying, but now that the dwarfs are fully into flower, I find that I'm having to water them nearly every day, as the small fabric pots dry out way too fast. Still looking good, albeit with some yellowing leaves here and there.

Ok so, things have been a little hectic at my house, due to the harvest of my other grow and some general "life is a PITA" style problems. So only one photo, and it shows some very sad looking plants indeed. So, the small pot size is a pain, as the plants are ALWAYS hungry. I reduced the amount of growing nutrients far too soon and mass yellowing/wilting occurred.
