Howdy,
as requested by some fellow followers and growers, I took more media this time, to show the 2 shorter plants and the taller one. Photos have been taken in order to show the plant overall, the details of the colas and related tricomes and then there is a 4K video to better see the situation. I hope that you can like it ^^
Plants kept the same height: (31-31-69cm) = (12-12-27 inches)
Temperatures were warm, most of the week above +30ยฐ (86F), air was dry and sun was strong.
Plants got water early in the morning and in the evening after the sun.
Please provide a feedback about the maturation of the plants, this should be the 5th completed flowering week.
I am still struggling to understand why this year the plants sucked so much in size, even comparing with other autos I grew
One plant has trauma from a bird pulling out the seed's plantling twice and I can understand, but what about the other replaced plant that shares the same height and did not have the same trauma?
The only big change that I did this year was to follow this advice from YouTube, they explained since auto-flowering plants have a very short living cycle, to avoid the trauma of transplantation, was better to put the cracked seed directly into the soil of the final growing pot.
So I did, because it sounded smart, but results still show a worsening compared to previous years.
