She is growing safety and healthy...

Gelato what a fucking beautiful plant she is becoming :)! Shit literally looks like some mephisto genetics frosty as fuck. Shit wish I had another tent I'll run the rest of my gelato seeds this shit is prob going be my fan favorite :) but fast buds still has plenty more for me to grow. Tbh every fast buds I grown I haven't been disappointed:). Looking to harvest this one in next 4 weeks or so so excited:)! Easily 4 zips calling it now ! :)

Week three the girls are still growing strong. Still feeding them twice a week. New comer in the solo cup is a white cookie that I started in 12/12 lighting. Small experiment. Stay tuned

11/15 - Day 43 - I've changed the light schedule on the timer from 20/4 to 18/6. I will be heading out of town for 10 days on December 25th and so I'll need to harvest and hang to dry by the 24th at the latest. I've read in a few forums that decreasing the lights on/lights off ratio can speed flower maturation on auto-flowers. The other growers also mentioned that the decrease in light also reduces yields, but on such a tight timeline I'd trade total yield for more fully ripened buds any day of the week. Would certainly be interested if anybody has experience/knowledge that contradicts what I've read. Plants stretched another 2 inches in the last 24 hours putting them 22 inches from the light. I still have room to raise my light another 2 inches, but if these girls stretch more than 6 more inches they'll be < 18 inches from the light which I'm assuming would cause light burn based on the research i've done on this 600W ViparSpectra reflector series. Here's hoping they don't stretch more than 6 inches from here. 11/17 Day 45 - Haircut day. Left a few fan leaves on the shorter/lower shoots, but took almost everything else. Tallest tops had stretched another 4 inches in the past 48 hours, and were 18 inches from the light. I raised the light the final 2 inches I had available, which places it back to 20 inches from the tallest bud sites. Hopefully the haircut I gave the plants slows down the stretch, but either way it looks like I'll have to do a lot of retraining before I head out of town tomorrow for 5 days. 11/18 Day 46 - Fed nutes. Cal mag + advanced nutrients (micro, grow, bloom), and MKP. 4 Litres of water per plant. A lot of runoff in the saucers, but I'm out of town for the next 5 days so I'm leaving it to be absorbed throughout the week.

👉👽11/17/19 - After two days of heavy defoliation, there were signs of a little stress. Mostly leaf dropping. Not much but, different than before. Gave a feeding of 2 cups of each solution. Solution #1 A+B Silica Blast Solution # 2 Terp Candy Bud Sweet Sens Cal Overdrive 11/19/2019 - I noticed a couple more white fly's tonight. I have used my UV/Ozone bulb tonight for 30 min two times. I also hung 2 more sticky pads. Lets see what happens. Had to hold my breath (because of the ozone) as I took the pics. 11/20/2019 - 2 cup feeding of each solution. Saw a couple flies but not as many. Going to run the UV/Ozone bulb again tonight. 11/22/2019 - 2 cup feeding of each solution. Flies seams to be dead. Ran the UV/Oz again for 30 min and this seems to bee a good time over several days to kill the little bugs. 11/24/2019 - Well, have one girl that got a little fucked up from the extreme defoliation and was a little dehydrated. She re bounded nicely after some tasty treats. I think she will be the one that just hangs on to harvest

11/17 Week 8 Man I will be glad when this grow is over, if making mistakes promotes learning well... Im a fricking PHD ... Ok progress on Maggie the yellow is limited to the very top as buds are building in particular those a couple inches from the top. Thinking another root drench is in order, cant hurt and letting her dry a bit as a prep. Looks like tomorrow Layla doing ok she exhibits far fewer problems but the same issue are present she is just a hell of plant along with the Runtz which she shares the tent. Thinking about the feeding tomorrow will decide what to do then. They have plenty of time to finish up, had some issues on germination on the grow following so looks like it may be delayed a week from the scheduled 2 weeks. Maggie may need it. 11/19 Have stumbled onto to something it seems. The further I move the lights out, they are now at twice the "ideal" placement of 14" at 28" and the yellowing is disappearing to a great extent. Problem with this of course is not enough light at bud sites not on the canopy which lets face it is most of your bud. It is absolutely something that makes the plants insanely susceptible to light burn. New one for me but maybe some of yall know so making a question of it. Pics at lights out only and I missed today so new pics later if I get back in time. Update : Defoliated and tightened training on all three to spread things out from the center and open up the light and air paths. Raising the lights is working just wish I knew why as lights are higher than crap with little room for more than a few more inches. Would drop the watts to 450 but need the heat to keep the grow room level as our temps here swing 40 degrees all the time. Something I learned with the help of a carbon filter. If things normalize will begin dropping lights to see what happens. 11/20 Setting the lights at 24" as I am not risking yield any further than that on Layla and the Runtz, Have the canopy as level as it can be with Brandy getting the least light being on a coco coir block (heh) for height, which she is responding well to since I opened up the plant and no longer worried over mold issues in that main bud. Have Layla on a milk crate to bring her into decent light as well as the Runtz. She is just a lovely thing building those white crystalline buds. Maggie has turned into a beast at least I know her root ball is huge from the growth above. Seriously defoliated her removing several small lower branches and leaves blocking light and air paths. Next feed will be continuing what seems to be working, Epsom salt and bloom nuets (no calmag with epsom salt) with a foliar feed after lights out which may well be with calmag. Foliar feeding today at lights out, one quart sprayer with 1ml CaliMagic and 0.5ml wetting agent un-PH warmed to 75 F before spraying (our tap water comes out at @50F so...), just trying to hit hard and effective * New Pics after foliar Update Folks its taken 8 weeks and a final piece of the puzzle provided by Grey_wolf resulted in a near full strength cal-mag foliar feeding and the last def bites the dust. See what happens from here but its the first time I have felt good about this grow since the bad time germing at week one. *big sigh of relief* Have a whole list of things I will never do again in soil more about that at harvest. Right now I need to work on why calcium is blocked at the roots but thats another day right now I just wanna look at em. 😁 11/22 Another foliar feed same as before just diluted 30% and all three got it today JIC Cannot find a pale leaf or top and hairs are standing up on the top buds for once and buds building nice on the lower ares the defs were cleared up first. Going to stop the foliars for a few days see what happens but will resume at first sign of need. Maggie has potential even after all this and we going to help her be all she can :D 11/22 Feeding day - Bio-Bloom 7ml - calmag 4ml - Recharge .5tsp / gal at 6.5PH to all three. No foliar today 11/23 The thickness of the hair growth on Layla is amazing! Will try and get pics at lights out of it if my crappy camera will catch it. Never seen anything like it, once again THIS this is what we intended by growing Stardawg :) Update: Pics and vid hope it comes through well enough as for the green in that tent and the dense hairs on Layla

25cm vertical growth this week!!! She's nicely into flowering now!

Day 16 Veg : Holy molly these girls have impressed me this week. I started with barely seedlings and now at the beginning of week 3 above the soil , they are going for it. Seeing the LOS girl#1 slowly start to gain a little more green to her leaf finally has me thinking the soil is becoming active now. The coty leaves are still all looking ok and not even nibbled by them. I wonder if autos can bypass them when resources are there for them ?. So far the coco girls have been consistently getting bigger but the LOS seems to have spurted up in their pots. They all had a treat of a life-cycle feed a few days back which seems to have accelerated them all a little too. No doubt their ruderalis genetic also is a huge help but no signs of deficiency besides the paling , so all good in the world. I am curious to see when the first signs of flower kick in now the 2 week mark has passed. Training starts soon.

This week She grew 13cm. Flowering stretch slowing down. Her flower sites look absolutely lovely!!! No sign of any purple as of yet though 😭

12th week of the Royal haze auto reckon she has a week or 2 left I gave her a major defoliation a few days ago to allow all the bud sites to get light and the small sites that were just basicly still white pistols I cut them off aswell so that all plant production is going to the buds that are going to be worth growing all the bud calyx's are filling out nice and resinous I think she has 2 weeks left on her she's on 3ml q and b per litre I'll start flushing her out next week probably , with the 6 photoperiod plants I have been low stress training them aswell as pinching the stems being very careful only to break the plant cells inside the stem but not totally crushing them to the point they can't stand up on there own this allows more nutes to be up taken when the plant recovers

Only 3cm growth this week but she's bushed out a fair bit and pushed out some new leaves. 💪

Removed some lower branches at the end of week 9. ✂️ Things were getting a little tightly packed in the flower room. 🤷‍♂️🏽🌿 Both plants are showing signs of female sex.😎 That about some up week 1 of flower. 🌺
