Another week gone by and the plants are growing nicely. I had some yellow coloring of the lower leaves at the beginning of the week and so i increased the fertilizer a little bit and the plants are responding well so far. Since they are in the bigger pots i also dont need to water them every day anymore, this week i only watered them twice. I also picked some of the lower leaves which dont receive so much light anymore, topped the remaining strains and tried to bend down some of the branches with some garden wire but didnt work as good as i hoped it would. i still have a scrog-net which im going to use later, but i think the plants are still too small. in the future im going to try different techniques and materials, for now i'm not going to overthink it and just let them grow now,.

Everything looking good this week happy with the vegetative stage with the th Seeds original Bubblegum. Says they are an ibl strain so the genetics should be stable, which is less chance of 10 different phenos ( update me If I’m wrong here, still learning ) Day 54 - today I did the last defoliation and lst 2 days before swith to 12/12. Middle growth was insane so spread them out abit by screwing small screws in to the pot and using the as a tie down Day 55 - all plants seemed to have bounced back the day after and look exactly how I planned so far so good Day 56 - final day of vegetative growth all seems good, all females showing white hairs , have raised the lights and turned Intake to full to maintain humidity levels and switched lights to 12 / 12.

Pheno #1 is getting fatter and fatter by the day although she is starting to fade out a bit. It’s a shame I had to tie her down because I swear her main cola would have been a foot long 😂She is also sensitive to light and has received slight amounts of burn and bleaching. She is the largest of the three but she has the least amount of resin and terpenes which is a bit unfortunate... She smells earthy, no banana scent or fruit terps like pheno #2. I still have about another 4+ weeks to go so that could easily change but we will see. I will try to be optimistic! Pheno #2 is a frost monster. She is completely covered in resin and trichromes. Her smell is out of this world, definitely has that banana fruity type smell. I don’t think I have smelt another strain quite like this so I’m very excited to see how she continues develop. Pheno #3 is a bit funky. She is stretching and getting bushier but she is extremely slow to flower. She has tons of shoots and bud sites. Almost every popcorn type branch at the very bottom raced to the top of the canopy. I feel like she hasn’t changed in the past couple weeks but maybe that’s just me being impatient. She is developing some interesting deficiencies but only on a couple leaves here and there. She is also somewhat lackluster compared to the other two. In my opinion she is a little dull looking... It’s odd to see how all three pheno’s are expressing different traits regardless of being grown in identical substrates with identical feeding schedules. It’s hard to say if it’s the genetics, substrate or the nutrients but I have a strong feeling it has more to do with the medium not being properly balanced. I normally would never grow with such a light substrate but DP grew theirs in a similar medium so I thought for the first time around I’d try to grow similar to their style. Next round I’m definitely going to switch it up and use the NFG or a custom soil blend I’ve been developing for auto flowers. It should be nice to see how a commercial soil compares to a homemade organic soil tailored for auto flowers. I’ll most likely run that experiment within a month or so once I get my new grow space setup. This week I’m going to lay off the nutrients and feed with some compost teas and microbes instead. In the video you can see my smaller brewing bucket. This is a mini-Microbulator along with an air stone. This allows for maximum dissolved oxygen saturation and also helps with preventing anaerobic spots in the brew. Set up a new space for future grows. Will top out the max I can grow in MI at 12 plants within the next couple months! Thanks to @MarsHydroLED • 2 X MARS TS1000 LED • 2x4 MARS HYDRO TENT

She's starting to show some nice purple colors, even though it's not getting very cold at night. She's showing many nice buds and it appears that while they may not be the biggest buds I have grown, they will be quite firm. So far, so good! Let's see what happens!

I smell trouble :/ well, actually the smell changed dramaticaly and I was overwelmed after opening the tent. But the trouble I smell are brown spots on the leafes that appeared on few more places. Maybe fungi? Did some googling and now I am not sure of anything :/ Other than that she seems healthy and is only affected on few places so I am not going to change anything in fertilizing for now. However I did took some steps...more defoliation to increase air streaming trough center of the plant, increased fan speed, disconect from autopot and dry out the root, took away (hopefully) all of the affected leafs. She was given 8ml of BIO PK5-8 together with 4ml of orgatrex diluted in 2 lit of water. I will keep hand watering her with orgatrex only during next 2 days before I need to leave again. Could that be lack of nutrientes as I am acctually keeping her in autopots most of the time?

I still believe that Banana Kush #2 and Zkittlez are stunted, I wanted to remove those two but i think i will just let them grow out for the experience. I'm really banking on Banana Kush #1 to bring home the bacon.

I really slacked at the end of this grow, my schedule changed drastically in the last month and I was unable to really take care of her the way I wanted. She yielded a 56 grams exactly.

Hard to believe it's been another week. These beautiful girls are growing great. They're definitely swelling amazing especially at the top colas. Starting to see some faded leaves so I think I'll back down my nutes from 1050 to around 800. All in all Happy Growing.

I guess the main takeaway from this week is to always have runoff when feeding with nutes and 12 inches should probably be the closest the light gets to the canopy on max power 75% strength bloom boost is probably too concentrated a dose. I fed her about 5 days ago then plain water then a molasses water. Probably getting a bit more molasses tonight then plain water til harvest which could be as soon as Monday the 22nd but will probably be a bit later. Happy growing friends 😶‍🌫️

This is day 80 from seed,I will admit I have messed up,and done some pretty cool things with this grow on my own terms.I just need some guidance on current status of growth referring to harvest,I need some advice on how long she has left before I should harvest her She is a beautiful plant.

JUL 15- so she needs some defoliation and some general maintenance because she is starting to lean over, but im out of town for another week. She had some nutes given to her this week. Also, her trichombes are very frosty this girl puts out alot of zap. The one in front is a Mexican Sativa strain which I set to flower a day after her. Also have some Habaneros in the Tent they are awesome they love the Nutes
