Thinking of pulling this whole run at this point, the stems are in a bad way and general structure has really suffered. FIM'd both girls this week & gave compost tea(ecothrive biosys) to aid recovery. Will make a decision on growing them out depending on how they respond. (Update end of week.) So in the first week these girls stretched terribly, instead of riding it out and letting them adjust I tried a trick I've applied with tomatoes in the garden and coiled an inch of the excess under the surface and covered it. After a burst of invigorating from the microbe tea(biosys) these girls seem to be recovering from the stress fairly well. The only down side, the stems have broken the surface and left me with these crazy bonsai style stems & the girls are very short and bushy, concerned the stems won't hold any weight later in life.. Will give this another week and make my decision TLDR; Don't interfere with nature when you can help it, especially with autoflowers. Update day 28 from sprout. Bbk1 showing signs of nitrogen toxicity after perking up, I had to use the bottle measure last week instead of a syringe. Much less accurate so assume this is the cause, just ph water for a while. Bbk2 perking up slightly. I did think these girls looked a funny shape and now I can see the stem properly its starting to make sense 🤦‍♂️🤣🤣

first day after a 12h night cycle, still have a big gnat problem. gonna go buy new bacteria, stickies and DT Earth. the grow shop just let me know that they got it back in stock but i haven't been able to find nematóides. doesn't seem to be a common practice here. i haven't watered them in a few days. the top soil is bone dry but the plants don't look like they're requesting water just yet so i think it's a good time to lay down the new dt earth and new yellow traps to see if we can kill the remainder. gonna grab some flowering ferts too while I'm at it. Update: got a bigger pot and some supergrow soil, only had time to transplant one of them today. but I decided to after them one more cycle before i do the DT earth. update: dt earth added, seems to be alright but not quite dry enough

Excellent week again for this young lady. She has grown heavily, and her 5th node is up and spreading its leaves. What this means is, yup. She got topped. Roots are looking good, and this also gives me a change to do a bit of pruning. Also allowed me to top of the clay pebbles, as I definitely started her a little low in the netted pot.

Zenzation is fast, very fast, filled and took color quickly and quickly volge at the end. The flowers are full, very full and seem truly succulent, the bassine shape, I spoke many times of the sides that I left then if you want high plants to take advantage of the growboxes in height Make the topping, without LSS and leave only the main line cloning the center. If instead you want a low plant you can leave side that will become very big and do some lst and fimming to keep them low and level them with the center that still weakens.

My plants have been doing well filling out the net a little more I added a second net last week the purple mountain majesty has started showing a bunch of white hairs at but sites also this plant is showing signs of nutrient burn but the other two (Larry lemon and PGC) seem to be in love with the grow dots and I haven’t hands any issues no drooping no discoloration no problems at all I think these grow dots are a good choice so far we’ll see when we flip to flower this week

Sexy Moma grew 2 inches this week. She is very healthy and bushy!! @STRNGseeds says she is going to be showcasing a complex flavor profile that combines sweet, fruity notes with undertones of pink and skunk. Well pink is my favorite color!! Because Sexy Moma is in the tent AND it is extremely hot outside, I have been having to turn the air conditioner on in the garage where the tent is located. I am feeding her approximately 1 quart of nutrients a day. As always, thanks for visiting. Let's chat it up. See you next week.

Lamp at full power 200 W. Start adding bioboost, don't have much of it. I'm ok with the final stratching, not too much about buds growing seems slow growing and fatten. maybe high temp.

4/18 - 4/20: She's coming along nicely! 4/22: I FIM'd her today and gave her about 20oz of water with cal-mag, humic acid, and boomerang and foliar fed with big bloom and fulvic acid. Later, I rinsed off all the plants with a stiff stream of filtered water in preparation for tomorrow. 4/23: Today was BoomBoom Spray day! I just love how visible the growth is the day after a BoomBoom Spray day!😲 Tomorrow I'll spray her down with Axiom Harpin a|b proteins..she'll start flowering soon and I want her hitting her stretch with mega-vigor.👈 4/24: I did a foliar application of Harpin proteins and fed her with about 1/4-gallon. 😊 I removed all the cool white and blue light, and turned on the 3rd set of QB's and bud boosters so she will get her stretch on- I also reduced her photoperiod to 20 hours so she can start getting some beauty sleep. I also tied down her apex cola today. 4/25: Didn't have much time today, but I looked in on her. It's getting crowded in here, so I'll remove all the photos (clones and seedlings) tomorrow. That's it for week 3-
