So #3 and #4 were selected by me to go into the flower tent(video) and the other 2 are going to veg longer and get 5 gal airpots for their turn in approx 4 weeks, as soon as my autos are done and 3+4 are halfway done.

-Went out of town for a couple days so I premixed my nutes and showed the girlfriend how to feed the girls. Thank the lord shes on board with my grow lol. This was their last feeding and from now until the end they will only be getting PH'd water. The end is near! -After 24hrs of darkness and cold midget plant still didn't flower, I doubt its a photo because I'm growing photo WWs from cropking and they do not look similar at all. Might switch to 12/12 once these girls are done. -Started flush on day 68

Another fast update! 😃 Hey guys! I hope everything is going well for everyone. This is the 2nd week of flower and I'm here again to share what happened last week! My babies now get thirsty really easy, nothing like how it used to be (and you can actually see them stressing over it in my photos) but gladly nothing that some water can't fix. The main colas are also starting to grow more and they are full of small developing flowers (they look super pretty! 😍) Some side stems are also outgrowing the main branches... and I'm kinda unsure what I want to do (or if I should do anything). Maybe LST or supercrop them? (I might screw things up by doing it in flower and I have never done it before 😭) I don't know. I also want to trim some leaves away since the foliage is very dense but I fear I might end stressing them! I will probably make a grow question to know what others think. I'm back on a normal nutrient schedule. I'm no longer "overfeeding" them and I water them 4 times a week (but with little water). Next week I'll try doing 3 but with more water and see if they like it more that way. So far I love how the plants are developing! The small flowers look great and they look bigger everyday! 😃 Thanks everyone! See you all next week! 👋

Weekly SST with kelp foliar, rest in 5l with 1.2l of super8 tea & sprinkle of potash through drip No problem what so ever this grow, Noticed after applying UV more frequently and for longer period it brings out purple in my plant , proof is after removing tie of a branch it was nice and green under while rest of the stem purple . Also purple on the tips of the leaves. Probably running low on nitrogen so ordered blood , bone & fish meal , got 44-0-0 Prilled urea but that’s not organic so to say and only for emergency use

Day 64 - I've been patiently waiting for the time to come, and it's finally here! Changed the lights over to 12/12 to send the tent into flower. Current light settings R99 W99 B50 as suggested by California Lightworks. I did a full reservoir change - switching over to bloom nutes. I also added some Si28 and P31 Microbes to the reservoir to test out this new product that I was fortunate enough to receive samples of. I've seen the results of others with crazy booming root growth.... Let's see what happens! Day 65 - I swear, it's like she's been waiting for me to flip the light cycle. I kicked one plant out of the tent so now there's even more room for improved air circulation and light distribution. This plant is a serious beast! Day 67/ Day 3 of Flower - Last massive round of defoliation before I sit back and let her do her thang. ✌️

Delilah has shown her sex, she's definitely a little lady (she is a feminised Autoflower, so I would have been shocked to see pollen sacs). No sign of flowering yet though. I watered her on day 32 and day 34. On day 34, I can't tell weather she's making new leaves still or going to start flowering.

Same as there big sister, 54th day of flower.. These plants haven’t had any work done what so ever, not one leaf has been removed from the start, no folding of leaves, literally just left to flourish in there “natural” environment, and I couldn’t be more happier with what’s inbetween the “mess”😂.. buds are swollen and ❄️, stinking of 🍋.

Yellowing advancing brow spots, some leafs drying and falling off. One girl I will flush tomorrow to cut on the weekend. The other 2 have more one week or 2. Is these yellowing hurt on the stage the girls are?

Very beginning of week 10. She is gearing up for flower. She is stretching, but I keep pulling everything down. She has been 36 inches for a month. She is about 41 wide. 8/13 Her pot was on the dry side. Gave her 2 gallons of water. I'd say 10 percent run off. I use the ph strips. I bring water home from my job. Their water is the perfect PH according to the strips. I test her run off today. Looks like a low 6. 8/14 2 gallons of water with 8 tablespoons of fox farm Big Bloom and 1 teaspoon of recharge. I do like the foxfarm products. Some Big Bloom can make a sick plant healthy. Have to check, think she is ready to be fed. 8/16 per 2 gallons 4 ml Grow Big, 4 ml Tiger Bloom 1/2 teaspoon Open Sesame 8/18 4 Tablespoons Foxfarm Bigbloom and 1/2 teaspoon recharge. Per Gallon 1 day I will get a ph meter. First year spent enough. The plants look very healthy. Unless the strips are completely worthless, she looks to be in her happy place. She was fed very well the past week. I might do 1 more water then feed. She is forming her sites. 8/13. Makes it easy to space the sites out. Also to know what to remove. Have to force myself to cut off what's not making it. Think flower.

22.09.2025 DAY 27/DAY 8VEG RH DAY 60-63% RH NIGHT 60-63% Room temperature day 26-27C Room temperature night 23-25C EC 490 pH 5.9 Water temperature 18.5-19.5 PPFD 420 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1.2-1.3 I'm increasing the EC to 0.48 by the Athena feeding program. A little bit of defoliation in order for the side branches to reach better light. I usually don't go in to a heavy deforestation I just occasionally remove some of the big fan leaves in order to have better light penetration. So far the roots are going great not even a slight sign of bacteria or problems in the root zone. We have nice white roots and so far is all going great. Ill probably move them in a separate buckets in week 4. I'm not sure that I'll even have 4 weeks of vegetation becose some of them are starting to show the gender signs, so probably it will be like 3 weeks veg at maximum. DAY 28/DAY 9VEG RH DAY 60-63% RH NIGHT 60-63% Room temperature day 26-27C Room temperature night 23-25C EC 520 pH 5.8 Water temperature 18.5-19.5 PPFD 420 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1.2-1.3 I sense a little bit of deficiency maybe is Mn or Fe not sure but I added a little bit of CaMg and a bit more Grow A+B in order to fight it. I have heard that Athena usually are thirsty for CaMg so basically you have to add more. Plus I lower the pH to 5.8 and now the game is ON. I'll see in a couple of days but if I'm not satisfied probably I'll raise the EC to 600 with a little bit of higher CaMg for base. DAY 29/ DAY 10VEG RH DAY 60-63% RH NIGHT 60-63% Room temperature day 26-27C Room temperature night 23-25C EC 485 pH 6.1 Water temperature 18.5-19.5 PPFD 420 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1.2-1.3 I realized they this problem with the leaf burn is from the Foliar feeding. NEVER PH YPUT FOLIAR FEEDING AND NEVER LEFT THE FAN WORKING🤣🤣🤣 Anyway it's all good now besides the few burned leafs. This strain is branching a lot, so basically I don't plan to use LST. I don't even think that is possible to use LST effectively becose my plants are hard and woody and only possible way for me to deal with them is through scrogging. DAY 30/ DAY 11VEG RH DAY 60-63% RH NIGHT 60-63% Room temperature day 26-27C Room temperature night 23-25C EC 450 pH 6.1 Water temperature 18.5-19.5 PPFD 550 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1.3-1.4 So far I decided to use the full spectrum. The idea of the first few weeks under cold White was to preserve them a little bit and keep them short but since today we have full spectrum plus far red. Lets see what is going to happen tomorrow. I'm a little bit afraid of the temperature swing becose this will Spike higher temperature, but whatever I'll deap with it. DAY 31/DAY 12 VEG RH DAY 60-63% RH NIGHT 60-63% Room temperature day 26-27C Room temperature night 23-25C EC 380 pH 5.8 Water temperature 18.5-19.5 PPFD 550 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1.3-1.4 Brutal development only for one night. I know it's hard to be seen on a picture but on live it looks amazing. The little ladies have during pretty much 2 liters of water and so far the AC is going down straight forward so they eat a lot. I had to put a little bit more of fertilizer just to keep them well fed. The Voyager is crushing it and it's only 40% on Chanel 1 and Chanel 2. In fact im not going to experiment with cold light anymore full spectrum is the deal. So far I'm not touching the EC I'm waiting for the week to pass and to jump on even higher. DAY 32/DAY 13 VEG RH DAY 60-63% RH NIGHT 60-63% Room temperature day 24-25C Room temperature night 21-24C EC 500 pH 5.8 Water temperature 18.5-19.5 PPFD 550 Light cicle 24/0 VPD 1.0-1.2 I couldn't wait more time for the new week to come and to increase the AC. My current AC for today was 300 and I have started to see manganese deficiency so I had to add nutrients. Tomorrow is the last day of the week after that I'll rise the EC to 670. Somehow and in my opinion Athena needs a little bit more EC Dan the recommend dose in the manual. So far that's the first fertilizer I see that needs more dan the recommendation on the label 🤣🤣🤣 Interesting fact is that now I can clearly see the reproductive organs of the plant. It's female but it's still in week two VEG. I'm curious em I going to see more dan 3 weeks VEG before we go in to Flowering ☠️😜 DAY 33/DAY 14VEG RH DAY 65-67% RH NIGHT 65-67% Room temperature day 24-25C Room temperature night 21-24C EC 350 pH 6.1 Water temperature 18.5-19.5 PPFD 350 Light cicle 24/0 VPD 1.0-1.1 Finally I solve the problem with the leaves. It turned out that my clip fan was blowing the humidifier mist toward my flowers. I notisec that only two of the plants have this types of burbs and those are the once right next to the fan. I have changed the fan position and the dehumidifier positions and now I hope all will be fine. I have defoliated a little bit of big fan leaves and I hope in the end of the next week I'll have time to move the RDWC buckets becose I'm a little bit busy does days. I have lower the PPFD becose it seems that this is a bit to much for the flowers.

Well it's been an awesome week :) Plants have responded way better than expected to both LST & fimming, I've got a good canopy and plenty of potential colas that are growing well and at an even level. Also, won £200 on a scratchy, so decided to invest in a better light. Went from 300w LED (true draw 130w) to 1800w LED (true draw 595w). The difference in the light is clear to see. Both plants have motored through initial training with LST and fimming without skipping a beat. I've read so many mixed opinions on topping / fimming autos, it was a hard decision to make. In the end, I decided to give it a try and find out for myself. If I'd had any concerns about the plants ability to cope, I wouldn't have done it, but if your plant is looking strong and healthy then it may be something to think about. Personally, I think there is no right or wrong, because it's probably entirely situational - too many variables like strain, genetics, environment, growing medium, lights etc to say one way or the other really. But for this grow right here? I think it was a good decision I'm extremely happy with the results. Scrog net now in place, and both girls are starting to boogy on upwards. No sign of pre-flower yet, I'm hoping they grow into the net before they start stretching too hard. Also, some weird findings from my runoff EC since I got the new light. Runoff EC has always been about 50-75 micro siemens above input. It was predictable as hell. But when the new light was installed, the runoff EC started to drop to about +25 from input... then the same as input..... and now my runoff EC is LOWER than input. Thought it might just be an anomoly, but it has now been consistently lower, every feed for the last 3 days. I'm going to post a question, but if anyone has any bright ideas wtf is up with that, let me know!! In the mean time, to all my fellow Orange Sherbet growers - hope you all have had a good week, and may your plants be flourishing.
