In a beginner grower pickle... they may look good, and though it seems I may have done everything right through veg, I am almost near sure I messed something up between flower weeks 2-5. They're maturing, but not nearly as much as I thought they would. By now, I imagined they'd have thick bushy white pistils covering at least 6-8 inches of the top of each Cola. So many mysteries. Is it the node spacing? If so, should have flipped earlier. Is it due to nutrient issues (too many nutes? didn't feed as much base as H&G suggested? Too big of a swing while trying to lower medium EC and PH in medium? Too much pruning on the top? The only real variable is the Banana Kush. BK is in the far back left and obviously the most difficult to reach and maintain. Initially last week when I flushed, I wasn't able to flush as adequately as other plants nor have I been able to trim, maintain, or LST as much as other two plants. This is the only plant as of right now that does not give off a chemical/nutrient/ammonia smell when I touch the buds, but rather a nice sweet, Banana smell, and it's bushier than the Trainwrexk and G13 Is it because I didn't trim.as much and the buds are feeding off leaf and stem nutrients? Is it because there are fewer bud sites for the light to concentrate on, and thus yield bigger colas? Or is it because I continued to feed this plant has continued to have a high intake of nutrient despite my best efforts of flushing and maintaing? In any event, I could just be the most impatient person ever, and I hope to be pleasantly surprised in the next week or so, or it's puffy popcorn tops for me. Day 85 Update: G13 has a ton of fan leaves turning fast. Pretty sure it's a PH issue. Should I wait until they're dead to trim them off or get rid of every fan leaf that is affected more than 50 percent of the leaf? Something definitely is going on. Could be nutes, could be lights, could be the strains.. who the hell knows but I thought they'd be much bigger and gurthy by now. They still look good but man I wish they produced more...

This is the start of week 9, just feeding the plants just ph water. Been noticing the tips yellowing and curling and a little brown. So we are thinking it's just over nutrients. Ppm is based at recommended amount from manufacturer, but might be high for this strain. I noticed some of the sugar leaves have some terpines starting to come. It's like a twinkling vampire, lol.

June 21: interesting how the tie down leads to the lower growth tips growing much faster. This is likely a reliable way to improve yield without stressing the plant very much. The response of this plant to the tie down is a bit of a revelation. I didn’t think these plants would do much with the cold weather start and potentially bad soil, but in the last month they’ve done great. Now using tie down method on some other autos where it looks equally impressive. Influenced by @Roberts and his auto tie downs using 12 gauge wire. Didn’t think this diary would be a contender for best outdoor grow, but now I think I better start posting weekly videos.

Can’t wait to try some of these flowers very happy with my first Scrog attempt beautiful deep purple buds. The next run of the do-si-dos auto will be 100% organic as i have the ingredients for living super soil, top dressing and compost tea on there way… so excited Juan has produced a few new white pistils but not to many so I have given her a last supper of my compost tea. We are in the final week or so Noticed today that Juan wasn’t actually touching the scrog anymore so removed it and got a few beauty shots 🤣👌

I decided to give the Girls one more veg week while i tried to gently adjust the ph. Although just managed to achieve a 7.5 Plants are getting bigger and I have limited space so they are going to flowering anyway. Guess the ph was high due to dolomite lime I added when measuring with unclaibrated ph meter and got misreaded 5.5ph I plan to add some bokashi and worm castings aiming to get to the 6.5 ph. Girls are looking fine only some leaves yellowing thanks to the ph locking some of the nutes.

Day 71 - Let the new week begin! Removed some fan leaves from the center of the plant today to create more air flow. Day 72 - Good run off today of 13%. Starting to notice the buds fattening up. CalMag decreased to 0.6ml/L. Day 73 - She looks really beautiful today. All the colas are starting to take shape. Day 74 - All the colas are taking shape now. Humidity in my area is high again putting the tent around 58%. Day 75 - Defoliated some of the inner fan leaves today, whilst doing so I touched some of the buds and they are smelling amazing! Fruity/Mimosa smell is already there and super sticky! Day 76 - She's taking up less water these days. My area humidity has gone up really high but still managing around 55% in the tent. I'll be monitoring her to see how she responds to the defoliation over the last couple of days. Day 77 - Getting really smelly now!🍊 That's the end of week 10! Pretty crazy to think! We'll be entering Week 6 of flowering tomorrow. The flowers look great and they are swelling out by the day.

Boom Day 28 after flip. She’s showing off big time. Cleaned her up real good on day 21 before lights out and will defol a lil bit here and there. Feeding really hard cuz it’s hammer time, some stuff like calcium and Bloom Khaos is almost double what is recommended on the feeding chart. And giving strong teas in between with Flower Finisher (1-5-7) and CytoPlus (0-0-7.5) for that extra kick of K. Bti for the win! I’ve been brewing AquaBac (in a tea ball) for 24hrs in ph’d water before adding stuff for ‘instant tea’ …I’m seeing one or two fungus gnats flying around and maybe like 3-4 new lil fuckheads on the sticky traps compared to 10-15 before. Was gonna get some nematodes and/or spray the top soil/cover crop with neem oil but I don’t think I have to (for now). Lights are blasting at 95% and about 13” away and she smells so good. That’s all for now. Thanks for stopping by and happy gardening 🌱🌱

Esta semana se ve un poco afectada la planta debido a las bajas temperaturas y la alta humedad, el desarrollo de la flor esta muy bien 😁😁 Espero que dejen sus comentarios

La planta ha tenido un muy buen desarrollo esta última semana, ha crecido de manera favorable ya solo es esperar a tener el espacio para su floración así que la dejaremos otra semana en vegetativo, aparte de eso no hay mucho que decir las plagas están a raya y se ve en perfectas condiciones desde sus hojas hasta los tallos

Puede decirse que en crecimiento como tal esta última semana la pancake stomper se ha desarrollado muy bien inclusive podría decir que es la que más ha crecido y ha asimilado mejor los nutrientes para vegetativo hasta ahora, vemos que ya no se desarrolla como cuando inició la revegetacion.

So this was my first grow on photos I have grown autos for a long time and I just couldn't waste my time anymore. I am pleased with the outcome but i will be starting a better diary with better plants in the coming weeks. Cheers. Light it up
