This week, I gave my plants more fertilizer to test if they show any signs of burning. Now, I'm stressed out! I think I should give myself some seaweed to relieve the stress 😂 The girls show signs of calcium deficiency. I sprayed a small amount of calcium and magnesium on them to help them recover faster. I’m not sure why the new leaves are very pale. Could they be lacking iron? I think the high soil moisture might be causing issues with iron absorption, but I’m not completely sure. I’ll wait and see what happens this week. Considering that I use regular water, I expected them not to have a calcium deficiency.

And week 5 has began. All looking good. I had to bend over some of the colas, they were too tall. Smells is fantastic.

Just got a new 600w mh/hps light for now it’s in my current setup with my 250 n it’s dimmed to 50%, only reason I mention is b/c the plants seem to be loving it!! They’re 12 days old from seed, still just ph’d water for them! So far so good :P

Solid week, she's growing well if I look at a week ago but I'm too impatient 😆. A look back at the week that was. After a trip to my local hydroponic shop I picked up grow bags, SCROG net, Growrite AandB formulation (Dutch apparently although wasn't on the drop down list here?), CalMax and LST tie. Day 19 I did her 3rd and final transplant to 20L grow bag. She didn't seem to suffer from it but will definitely plant into final bag from the get go next grow. It's too stressful on me LOL. Moved my grow tent out of garage and onto patio area as we've had a spell of hot days >35degC and the shed roasts. Wife isn't happy bout it but my girl appreciates it. Introduced CalMax and Growrite into her fertilising schedule. Trying very hard to stick to a watering/fertiliser schedule giving her nothing every 2nd day as suggested in comments (thank you!). Also started LST and at day 21 it's looking like some medieval torture scene! Would like to know people's thoughts on the LST, have I gone overboard? While I'm asking what is the latest consensus on topping Autos? Most people here seem to go for it but a number of vids on YouTube say otherwise? Also I was watching a video that suggested a great way to promote root growth is to starve her of water I.e. let her go dry for prolonged period (>4 days?). What are people's thoughts on this? Anyone tried? I am hoping for big growth in week 4!

I’m almost over the finish line with my first grow. From now, she’s on plain water ph 6.5. I’m paying closer attention to the trichomes, she’s very frosty but no sight of any ambers yet. The smell of the fullgas has changed to a lovely sweet candy . So Looking forward to smoking this guys.

Been a great start 😊 gave her a first feed of organic biobizz nutrients today! She’s 7 days old today and the rest will be 7 days old tomorrow! Several times a day I LST and foliage spray as humidity is 50-60% fastbuds are defiantly the best for autos! 💯

C’est mon 1er journal, j’attend vos conseils et vos suggestions bienveillantes.. je ferais un update en fin de semaine... Update fin de semaine fait. Toutes les graines sont cette fois bien sorties!!👍Il y a donc un léger décalage entre elles, mais aucuns soucis. happy grow!!😎

***** Week 10 growth - February 13 to 19, 2021 - Week 2 Flower ***** Mandarin Mimosa is certainly growing beautifully!!! MM1 has been strong and a taller grower from the start. MM2 however has taken off in stretch.......she is also being grown in a 3gal pot so she will be slightly smaller than MM1. These are 1:1 girls but I am really looking forward to smoking this strain😍👍 The terps should start coming out more over the next couple of weeks, Terpinator being added now as well to assist with aromas. Tips up on these girls almost all day long, they are the happiest in the tent this week😂😂 2nd SCROG layer in now....finally😞 Lots of work to do in cleaning up the lower leaves next week. Will do larger leaf strip and lolipoping when they start focusing more on bud development. Light is at 24” only pulling 310 watt, and the meter at the tops of the girls is roughly 28,500LUX. It is feeling like it’s a little strong for them but it’s close......the curling leaves is slowly increasing on the tops. By the end of the week we are at 400watts and reading 38,500LUX, this should be roughly 980 umol/s/m2.......over 900 and less than 1,000.......should be good for going into week 3. Nutrients switched over to flower schedule and following week 2.....but so-called back a couple of items. Adding some other items beyond IPP line so backing off some of the ppm to compensate. Still only one “feeding” per week. Early flower so hitting the microbes a little harder this week and next and then slowly start backing off. I like Remo’s Natures Candy for sweetener because it has humic, sweetener and old school molasses, amongst other things to feed the microbes as they are in coco. Bud Fusion being used now for pk boost.........no more “red kool-aid”😂 Still adding Rezin from Green Planet becuase it seems to boost my trichome quantity.....Terpinator likely this week as well......increase some of the sulfer to increase aromas. Little more detail....... Feb 13/21 - Day 8 - 3.5L watering with CalMag @ 1ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1ml, Resin @ 1.5ml Feb 14/21 - Day 9 - 2nd SCROG added today.....finally. Plucked a bunch more leaves in the process - watering with microbes only today. Recharge has some molasses in it so just adding that. - 4L water for these girls with Recharge @ 1/2 tsp/gal - 320ppm and 6.0pH Feb 15/21 - Day 10 - today is big feed day....its been 7 days. - 3L each girl with all the IPP line as listed plus silica @ 1ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1ml. (Bud Fusion was 0.2gr/L) - 1325ppm and 6.0pH - Girls gave run off at 3L today so didn’t push past that. Feb 16/21 - Day 11 - some feed left from yesterday so added 6L of plain water to dilute it and watered into the girls tonight. - 3L full feed of nutrients for each girl - 800ppm and 6.1pH Feb 17/21 - Day 12 - 3L each girl with Terpinator and CalMag @ 2ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1ml, Recharge @ 1/2 tsp/gal - 775ppm and 6.1pH - increased light power to 350 watts. Now at 32,500LUX.......take it slow over the next week and keep creeping up. Leaves have a bit of a taco shape coming out and looking fairly serrated at the edges.....pushing the light intensity on the tops👍 - leaf colour on the girls is very good......tips are not burnt either. Feb 18/21 - Day 13 -3L each girl of plain water today - added beneficial bacteria and enzymes @ 1.5ml - 330ppm and 5.9pH - was looking for a little lower pH as I have not been checking runoff. - have to do a leaf strip this weekend......start of week 3. - light power increased again, 400 watts now. Feb 19/21 - Day 14 - day out day.......they have not had one in a bit. - humidity was higher today as door to grow room closed today to assist clones with more humidity. So that takes us through two weeks of flower now. Not knowing these girls enough yet, I suspect feeding will stop at the end of week 6. That leaves four more weeks. I will treat the next two weeks like mid flower for nutes, and the following two weeks as late flower. Feed supplements accordingly. These two girls are very happy and looking like we should get some nice colas from MM1!! They are rocking ETS.......looking forward to seeing the bud swelling next couple of weeks💪👍👊

My diary is a little late to the party as I just found this site. These are a White Widow cross that a friend gifted to me so I dont really know exactly what they are. Its my first time growing but with some advice and research I feel I'm doing ok. I wasn't comfortable topping so I just pruned some leaves and lower growth tips that won't get light. I'm not sure how old it really is so I'm just guessing here. Feel free to point out anything that needs work.

Day 85: The last week! The dark purple fade looks gorgeous. Trichomes are mostly cloudy now with a few clear and an amber here and there. I plan to take her down sometime this week. My smell came back and I can confirm that she still absolutely reeks! Some fan leaves are drying and falling off. Day 91: I gave her 2L of water with nutrients a day or two ago. I cut off a bunch of fan leaves that were drying out. She looks ready now. The trichomes are mostly cloudy with some amber and a handful of clear. The very bottom buds could use more time, but everything else looks good. My plan is to chop her in 2 days. Tomorrow it's supposed to rain a lot and I don't want to start drying her in overly humid conditions. The temps here are between -1C and 13C so it's already going to be cold and I should be able to have a nice slow dry. She is a beautiful plant with a strong smell and lots of frost. I'm excited to see how the smell/flavor will be after drying. The buds feel very dense. They look mostly purple now, but I think that might just be on outside. Anyway, I can't wait to be able to try her... She didn't give me any trouble while growing and I would highly recommend her based on the growing experience. The smoke report will have details on the taste and effects. Happy growing!!! Harvest: I am writing here so that I can copy and paste it later into the harvest week. I chopped her on day 93. The bottom buds could have gone longer, but the tops were already showing amber on the buds so I decided it was time. Her smell is straight funk at the moment. I don't pick up the berries that I did earlier, hopefully that will come back. I trimmed off most of the fan leaves and left the sugar leaves on the plant for drying. The plant is hung up whole while drying in my tent. The exhaust fan is on, but the oscillating fans are off. I tied the side branches with separate strings to give them a bit of space and air between them. Starting environmental conditions are 14C and 55% humidity. Day 2: 12-15C / 57-62% Day 3: 12-16C / 56-61% Day 4: 12-16C / 54-60% Day 5: 12-16C / 59-66% (turned on the oscillating fan at the bottom of the tent for more airflow) Day 6: 12-16C / 56-66% (fan off when I saw it was down to 60%RH) Day 7: 12-16C / 59-65% (fan on again most of the day and night) Day 8: 12-16C / 59-64% Day 9: 12-16C / 63-71% Day 10: 12-17C / 63-74% Day 11: 12-17C / 61-65% Day 12: 12-17C / 63-70% Day 13:
