Very easy strain to grow. I grew the White Critical Express previous to this grow, I really liked it and wanted to try growing an Autoflower so I went for the Critical 2.0 and it was worth the grow.

Both outdoor autos hit full mid-flower stride this week, stacking steadily and pushing out stronger aromas with each warm afternoon. Nice Cream continued swelling along every branch, its buds coated in a fresh frost of trichomes and exuding a creamy berry scent with faint rubber notes typical of the strain. The canopy stayed lush and evenly colored with no major fade or stress. Tiger #2 developed a dense, compact structure with heavy pistil coverage and a distinct sweet grape-candy aroma beginning to dominate. The smaller pot required slightly more frequent watering but kept pace in flower production. By the end of the week, trichomes were mostly clear with early cloudiness forming, signaling the start of late-flower swelling as both girls prepared for their final push.

Semana 6 quinto dia, as mais pequenas um pouco atrasasdas em relação mas nada de grave simplemente atrasou devido ao stress! Boa semana no geral cheiro forte, muitos tricomas, as mais pequenas estao super frosty! Ultima semana a levar big bud no inicio da proxima vou intoduzir o over drive na maior para dar um ultimo pump antes do flush! Ancioso que chegue a hora para sentir os fumos destas meninas 🤤🤪

Still a few week before harvest. I have stopped adding N as much as possible to my nutrient solution. It might help the bud swell up a little more the last few weeks. Also been adding big bud and bud candy from Advanced Nutrients. I will feed the girls 2 weeks more before going into flush. My soil Sour diesel is ready for flush anytime soon. #1 (back right) have suffered from being to close to the light while also not having enough airflow around it. Have fixed the air problem but cant bring my light any further up. kept around 22 cm from the tallest branch 30< cm from the rest which is the minimum recommended. They smell really pungent and the suger leafs and buds are coted with crystals. My autoflower (front left) is doing good too and i really cant wait to taste it. A good week (kinda)

Day 35 Diese Woche war im Verhältnis zu den vorherigen ganz ok. Von Woche 4-5 mit dem vegegativen Wachstum zufrieden. Die Seitentriebe kommen endlich etwas mehr zum Vorschein. Ich denke aber das die Ernte klein ausfällt da ich es einfach in den ersten 2 Wochen verkackt habe! Die Vorblüte ist gekommen und es wird demnächst das Licht auf 400 Watt NDL geändert . Die Ladies haben nun auch etas mehr Hunger was gut ist 😁. Ich habe Sie in dieser Woche zum ersten mal mit Drain durchgegossen, das haben Sie gemocht. Die Klimabedingungen waren wie schon die letzten Wochen super. Peace

4/9/25 Welcome to another week. Week 5 since the flip of 12/12 just ended. So today is day 36 since 12/12. The begining of week 6. About halfway done with flowering. Time to start packing on weight. also its important to note that it took a week or so after 12/12 to have pistils show up. So its closer to 28 -30 days of Flowering. I have a foxtailing pheno thats mostly green with thin buds. I have a super chonker green pheno with ridiculously chunked up golfball sized nugs everywhere.(R3) I have a sativa style but thicker buds with nice long connected colas (R2) another smaller pheno with traits of some of the others and also green. and then a singlular pheno that looks gelato dominant and its purple pretty much everywhere to the point that i didnt notice its coloring until it was next to all of its sisters that are straight green. Very beautiful plants and a nice display of phenotypical expressions Top dressed 2tsp bloom 2tsp microbe charge 1tsp bloom booster A Special thank you to Zamnesia and

This week the plant almost doubled in size, i must add that we had very nice weather and stable temperatures, shes getting sunlight from around 7AM to around 15PM-16PM and after that just daylight, i dont think i can harvest before the competition ends so bad luck, but its still great to grow this strain, cant wait to see her full of buds, hopefully they get fatter than my last balcony grow, but of course i had some bad weather with my last balcony grows also this one is in a much bigger pot which i really notice 👌😀 22 august: nothing 23 august: nothing 24 august: water 25 august: nothing 26 august: nothing 27 august: water 28 august: nothing

Noyce, ok so we on track now but still not see that truly vigorous growth. I'm doing my best to move her under the deck when it rains to not dilute the nutes too much with rain water but i feel something is off a little. the leaves seem a little dark and a like hmmmmm a little to rigid or thick, not that nice lime green the whole way throuhgout you like to see with rapid growth. maybe the ph or mayb a slight nitrogen toxicity or possibly the combination of the two. So today i have her less of the growth nute and upped the cal meg slightly with a higher ph around 6.35 to see if i see some postive effects from this. I'm wondering if anyone has anytips on watering and such for outdoor girls in pots? still optimistic i'll get enough flower to achieve my main goal. to get high affffff watching pineapple express while smoking it. which im sure everyone does hahahha i can see the lady parts just coming out now where as the ones in the tent are about a week into flower

All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids)TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate what will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely with the ppm and ratios listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. Day 28 Just a quick update for this morning since I had to move the ties a little. LST, I now have them above the 3rd node branches. Stats are normal and the growth tips are turning upward now. Stats 73F/ 63% RH /IL Vent at 33% - Lights also same as before 345ppfd highest, 330 center, and 315 at lowest. No need for adjustment. She seems to be taking the training well. Day 29 Water day - checked last night and decided it was time again - Water by weight again so no runoff to measure at about 4 cups. (4 days since last feed by weight) 13lbs even par is 15lbs 4oz so I prepared 2lbs 4oz of water. Tested my meter and discovered it needed calibration (the temp is off and cant be calibrated - so I used a trusty meat thermometer. started with 4ppm and added 300ppm of epsom and vegmix ph balanced to 6.34 at 69.8F - then splashed with H2O2. Poured around roots and splashed the stem base - sprayed some on the leaves and use the whole amount. Had to adjust lights now to be brighter so I brought them down to 18.5" and ppfd is now 375highest 360 center and 345 at lowest. VPD is normal at 1.0 with 73F /63% RH /33% IL Vent - fans are pointed to directly now as the leaves are starting to get rough feeling - so I moved them a bit to blow less directly Training is doing good nice upward turn on the training (making small LST movements with the ties other than than... just letting it make new branches. Day 30 Checked PH and got 5.0 on my meter(+1.25 tested differential = 6.25) Stats normal too - 73F /64% RH /33% IL Vent - Lights at 385highest 370 center and 355 at lowest Removed cross ties since they are no longer needed to hold the fan leaves- training still looking nice as the new nodes are formed with 2nd node leaves growing already. Day 31 Identified an issue this morning - went back through my pictures, identified the start, looked at the day before, and noted my changes that I took notes on at that time. Went to google to diagnose a few possible hypothesis and am now testing with a treatment. (suggestions from more experienced growers welcome) This morning the issue was brown spots on the older fan leaves. Mostly just the left fan leaf. Seems to have started 2 days ago (day 29) when I changed the lights and fed her. When I fed her, I left water droplets on the leaves instead of drying them off after a short time (I had been drying them with a tissue after a wet pic. The fans were also adjusted after the lights were dropped closer as well. Hypothesis: I think the water was magnifying the light and caused light stress at the those spots. I dont think the wind of the fan had much to do with it other than they helped dry the leaves faster as noted by the water being completely gone by the time I took pictures later that night for measurements. Test: Raised my lights to a max of 350ppfd (from 385 highest reading this morning) Had to adjust fans again since they rest on my lights. Will observe looking for improvement over the next few days. ... another possibility was given to me by Guru @Roberts (thank you) as it possibly being a ph issue locking out calcium. So I thought I might test ph and then try diluted cal/mag in a spray if my soil is too low (also looked at pics and seen VERY close similarities in my pics and those) and so on that advice, I tested/calibrated my soil meter (it FINALLY calibrated for me!)I found my soil was avg of 3 readings at 5.153 (5.08,5.09,and 5.29) NOT GOOD - potentially locking out most all nutes. I weighed out about 2 cups of purified water with and added about half ml of CalMag, ph balanced the water to 6.5 at 69.7F (my research shows Calcium lockout starting at 6.3 or lower) and splashed with H2O2 - I poured most around the base and sprayed the leaves too. I made sure to use the whole solution by pouring the last of the solution in the spray bottle over the stem and stem base. EOD follow-up Found a possible calcium blockade in my ph and on my leaves (of which are now starting to curl so I placed my fans on oscillate to ensure they aren't doing more damage) --- fully documented now. otherwise measurements are now documented too. -- second node is starting to pull away from the last top so I will be looking to top again (3rd of possibly 4 total) and then HST and bind in a new spot Day 32 Doing a morning and evening check her now while I see this issue resolved. So far no sign of improvement since last night - might have gotten worse in comparison (will check pics side by side today) but I think because it's a immobile micronutrient so it should take time to stop then reverse. So in the mean time I am doing a slurry test as a 2nd test for my soil before I treat it. I took soil from 3 different spots and made sure I got some from about 4 inches deep in each spot (ensured calibrations were still good with buffer tests) 1st test is a PH meter tested directly in the soil. After using the 2 cups of 6.3 yesterday I got 3 readings today = 5.47, 5.32, and 5.5 to avg 5.43 - (yesterday's readings prior to treatment were 5.08, 5.09, and 5.29 to avg 5.153) - still far below the normal 6 to 7 for soil and the requirement of 6.3 and above for calcium to enter roots. suggesting again lockout. So while I am checking the plant conditions I also looked at the new nodes - 2nd node is starting to pull away from the first, but not quite enough to top yet - thinking I will be able to top tomorrow evening - should be able to correct the ph tonight, so I can see if there's results in that by then as well. I also set the fans to oscillate last night, so here's a video for that now. Measurements, ppfd, and vpd will be in tonight's check-up Day 32 So I started this evening by testing the run off with 2 meters, 5.7 and 5.67 - prepared 1 gallon of 7.5 ph water and splashed with H2O2 (checked with both meters) Before flushing, I documented the leaves again - still curled and look very dry but they still have some flexibility with them - they dont seem to getting any worse so the spray may have gotten enough to the leaves most affected. The new nodes and growth tips seem to be okay but not growing as fast as they were. That would still mean that the soil needs treatment before the roots begin to die off and I end up with stunted growth overall. SO I flushed the whole gallon and noted the runoff from the sides and bottom. I then tested the soil directly with 3 readings 5.95, 5.8, and 5.73 for avg 5.826 and tested the runoff water with 2 separate meters for 5.91 and 5.85 Not sure if I should feed dunk in 7.5 still or just use that number on the next feed in like 3 or 4 days. will discuss Other than that ppfd highest is 360, 350 at center, and 330 at lowest. VPD was 1.0 with temp at 74F /63% RH /33% IL Vent Growth tips could be ready to top again tomorrow night, but I would like the get the ph taken care of first. Day 33 Started the day by noticing the lower branches seem to stop turning and the next level branches seemed to have finally turned but nearly as fast as the first. (Noticed them having a start yesterday) Newer branches dont have any signs of issues. So the plan today is to make Bloom Juice for later. Feed Dunk with 100% Veg Juice at a ph of 7.3 test runoff and ppm. Top the 4 nodes and remove the lower leaves. Calcium issue or not, that was always the plan with main-linning the plant. However, because of the health issues, I dont think I am going to go past these 8 colas - rather instead I will simply stop here and do some HST to set them how I want them to grow and let her recover and finish her veg for about two or three weeks. Dunk had 300ppm of Epsom, Veg juice, in a little over 3 gallons of purified water. I had 7.4 ph and splashed with h2o2. I pushed the entire plant into the water and soaked for a few seconds. Drained by hanging the pot up for about 10 minutes and the stream started dripping instead. Checked the runoff with 2 meters 6.01 and 5.93 with 2580ppm. Then I topped all four nodes and removed the fan leaves from under my mainline. I used LST to finger press the new branches apart into the direction I plan to move them to get the nodes powering up. Next I will wait for a day to do HST on those new branches. Tonight I will simply let her rest. VPD still at 1.0 - 73F /63% RH /33% IL Vent - Lights are at 365 highest, 355 center, and 335 lowest. No need to measure for growth now as I dont plan to top anymore Day 34 Early entry to day for HST the morning after topping. So I started off the morning checking stats and health. PH levels are still low. 3 soil meter tests 5.41, 5.41, and 5.44 for an avg of 5.42 - kinda at a loss here but can only monitor now. VPD and lights are mostly the same - 74F /63% RH / 33% IL Vent - VPD not relevant today as the settings are the same and I am using HST to change the plant position. leaves are noted for future reference - all four lower fan leaves have signs of calcium deficiency but not progressing nearly as fast as the first two did, so I think my attempts via higher ph water and feed may have helped. (I know the microbes in the soil are supposed to help get past ph issues , but mine seem to not be heathy) HST used a cuticle rod from my wife's nail case and a paint stick to press the rod against the branches and smash the inside of the elbows I want to bend. LST I then cut 4 strips of garden wire at the same length, hooked the ends like candy canes and aligned them about 1/2 inch above the new node and into the soil. From the side they look level but have the leaves now facing sideways. They will turn in a day or two.

Всем привет! На прошлой неделе у меня начались проблемы с листьями. Было очень похоже на нехватку магния или кальция. Но внимательно проанализировав места локализации проблемы, я пришел к выводу, что это световой ожог. Во-первых, лампа была запущена на максимальную производительность. Во-вторых, страдали только верхние листья. В-третьих, проблемы были только у тех листьев, у которых не было трихом. В-четвертых, обычно страдают обе пары листьев, а в нашем случае только те, что были ближе к лампе. Пришлось убавить мощность, чтобы и листья не страдали и чтобы трихомы не испарялись зря. Как итог - прогрессирование некроза прекратилось. Но пришлось все испорченные листья удалить, чтобы проконтролировать текущее состояние и заметить проблемы в будущем. К тому же, дал больше света нижним шишкам, а само растение практически осталось таким же пушистым. Еще начали отпадать самые нижние листья, которые практически не получали света. Так как азота было предостаточно на веге, они не желтели, а больше стали серыми и сами отвалились. Полиплоидный бутон начал расти в бок. А новых ростков из устья листьев больше не появлялось. НО!!! Я сперва не замечал, а когда обрывал листья, заметил, что там где у шишек растут листья, у всех крупных из них растут такие не маленькие шишечки, из-за чего в целом шишка становится жирной и толстой. Полистал другие репорты и обнаружил, что это привычное дело для этого сорта. Интересно, что запах снизился. На веге оба фильтра работали на полную мощность, а обычной травой все равно пахло. Сейчас имеем около 20 колл, а запаха нет совсем. Либо угольные фильтры хорошо прям терпены фильтруют, но не фильтруют запах свежескошенной травы, либо действительно, из-за светового ожога испарялись трихомы и поэтому запаха убавился. По моим рассчетам нам осталось еще 4 недели, то есть ровно половина цветового периода прошли. Спасибо что заглянули.

She completed the first week of flowering happily and she keeps stretching. Trailers net added to level the canopies.
