Sorry for delayed update again, my health is not good at the moment and I'm struggling to keep up.
Had some deficiencies this week. Was definitely a magnesium problem and cal-mag has got them back on track however I think they may now be stuck at this size. The stretch was a bad time for this to happen.
Possible causes for MG deficiency:
β’Top dressing causing PH swings and temporary lockout
β’increasing the day length from 12 to 16 hours would have caused increased photosynthesis and they may have just used up all the magnesium
β’its possible I overwatered them causing PH swing
It seems they need cal-mag every feeding under HPS which they did not need when I was using CFL. Noted for future reference!
@Chilipadi, if the autoflower trait is properly selected for and stabilised, then the length of the day should make no difference. I think there are some "semi autos" available but I don't really know the details of those. They usually tend to be genetically closer to wild type or landrace strains.
@Chilipadi, I am mate yeah as they are starting in the shade of some photoperiod Banana Glues. I'll be increasing the daylight hours once it's just autos in the tent.
@Chilipadi, thanks for the heads up man. To be honest that's perfect as I'm hoping she will self seed and it gives some time for the seeds to mature ππΌ
@Eauderay, It was an autoflower, so I think normal to show sex in the third or fourth week.
Also, it was not a hermaphrodite but a normal male so nothing to do with the lights or any other environmental factor.
Wurst april ever!!
Hope you get some revenue from her. When she has to much seeds,
making hash from it is always better than burning seeds in a joint!!!
