This is first week for both plants. Plant number 1 is few days older than plant number 2. This will be unfortunately my last grow with Royal Queen Seeds because I don't have any more seeds and they stopped delivering to my country. This is showcase that this grow method is possible. Last grow I did with Quick One I ended up with 84g (2.9630128 ounces) dry weight. MY SETUP =========== Grow tent Is made from fabric closet for hanging clothe inside. I wrapped inside of closet in "reflective" foil that is used for heating radiators (yes this was fail but currently I don't have alternative solution for this). There is NO filter because I don't mind smell and I am not afraid that somebody will smell it because I have almost a mile from other houses around me. Light Is made from normal E27 LED lights that you use in households anywhere in the world. Logic behind this is that plants use cold with light for vegetation (that is 6000 kelvin light temperature) and for flowering plants use warm light (that is 2700 - 3000 kelvin light temperature). I already did few grows with this panel and I had great yields. Usually in vegetation I use 20W (2 light bulbs) per plant until plants are 2-3 weeks old and then I start adding more lights. Nutrients and water I don't have any fancy nutrients I use basic nutrients for flowering only! No vegetation nutrients are needed since Quick One Autoflower starts flowering very soon and there are enough nutrients in soil that I use (Compo Sana). Also I test pH level with pH drops that change color according to pH level. Air flow I use basic PC fans and 1 USB fan to keep air flowing inside of tent since that is very important. I PC fan is used for getting fresh air inside tent, 1 big laptop cooler fan is used for pushing hot air out and 3 fans inside tent to make "wind" for plants Wish me good luck and follow me!

Left plant - bigger one is growing nicely but it had very shallow roots so I needed to add some more substrate in pot so roots wouldn't come out. Currently 4 light bulbs are on and all of them are 10-11W 6500k Right plant - smaller one is 1 week younger than left plant but it is growing nice also, maybe a bit slower then left plant but I am not in rush. Currently 2 light bulbs are on and all of them are 10-11W 6500k Daily temperatures are not around 25°C bit higher than before and I expect them to go up to 28°C then I will start microcontroller to regulate it to 25°C again.

Left plant - Bigger one This plant is growing really great and I have no complaints about it. LST is giving great results so I have many tops that will eventually produce nice big flowers. Currently I am just stretching branches to sides of pot so I can have maybe few more branches in the middle of plant (where the main stem is) but I am not obsessed with new branches I just want to stretch existing ones so they have more air circulation in the plant. I don't want to have humidity and airflow problems like last time with other plant. Also this plant started flowering so I added bio fertilizer for growing not for flowering and that is last time I put any fertilizer for growing - everything else I add to plant will be for flowering but not yet there is time for that. Right plant - Smaller one This plant is not growing as fast as bigger one but ok I am not forcing it. LST is giving results but not as good as I would like to. Will keep growing and I hope that it will start growing faster.

LEFT PLANT - BIGGER ONE Left plant is growing and flowering very nicely. I am still stretching her with strings (LST) in order to keep her height limited so I don't have problems with box height. Some leafs on top growth are small but I hope that they will develop in big leafs and that flowers will be great. This plant got flowering nutrients but in small dose - 5 ml of flowering nutrients and 15 ml organic sea algae RIGHT PLANT - SMALLER ONE Right plant finally started listening to me and my LST. Every day I need to stretch her and play with her in order to keep everything in line. I gave this one organic sea algae and nothing else for now.

Left plant - Older one This plant is, as you can see, growing very good and as expected for RQS Quick one. I started giving it some more nutrients because she is asking for it and it is quite a big plant for this fast strain. Little bit of foxtails appear but I find it normal for this strain. Also flowers are growing more and more every day and smell is weak - I can not feel it but other people who come to apartment say that they can feel a little bit. Right plant - Younger one This plant is younger than left plant and they are SUPOSED to be same strains but as you can probably now see on photos that they are not. I grew Quick One from RQS for couple of times now and all of them looked like left plant but this right plant is some other strain. Also this plant is not very happy and I can not understand why but I will see what time will tell.

I grew Quick One from RQS for few time and left plant is definitely Quick One Auto but right plant is NOT! So from day 1 right plant looks a lot different from any quick one that I ever grow. Both seeds are from same original RQS package. Can anyone recognize what strain is this?

Left plant - Older one This plant is the best Quick One auto that I ever grow. I am pushing limits with nutrients a little bit to see where is the limit but this one is taking it really great. Right plant - Younger one This plant is making problems all the time. Read previous weeks but now I have a new theory, maybe I overwatered 1 week ago and now I will make water starvation a little bit to prove my theory. I pumped some air into roots to make sure that I will dodge root rotting. Time will tell how I did :)

Left plant - Older one This one is doing great! She is drinking and eating nutrients without showing any nutrients burn or any problems. I think that this plant will go down in 3 weeks (4 weeks maximum). Right plant - Younger one This plant was problematic since it started flowering. This Saturday I decided that I had enough of problems with this plant and I flushed it with 4 liters of pH corrected water and next morning plant recovered and now it is better than ever. I even feed her with nutrients and she took those nutrients great. Now I will just continue carefully feed it and she will be good!

Left plant - older one This plant is finishing really fast. I am thinking about leaving it for 2 more weeks. 1 week to maybe flower a little bit more and 1 to flush all nutrients and that's it! Right plant - younger one This plant finally looks good (if you don't look at foxtails) and it is pumping it's flowers more and more every day. I am feeding it carefully and I hope it will finish good.
