2 Up Pots In 3 Weeks: Gorilla Glue Autos

[Hyperionloader]

Very nice. Great tomatoes.
I prefer to start mine in 1 gal coco, but I feed daily. I let them colonize completely and throw them into 3 gallons where they stay until the end. Canna roots love oxygen. Quicker they dry the better imo

 

[Backlipslide]

welcome Backlipslide . Great to have you

Thanks!!

you have a beautiful garden!! I wish I spent more time on my outdoor gardens this year, but I let the weeds grow in and I never did do anything about it... the garden is just too Damn big! Lol

 

[Plant Dad]

I'm in too!!! I've got the seeds. Can't wait!! I will be using the winner... early prediction is Roxie. I would have used photoperiod but I could only find GG autos.

Happy Birthday Hyper.

Have a special day brother.

I turn the dreaded 61

I didn't know there was a dread to 61! Good thing I got through it unawares .

Hyperion!

The natural progression of a plants growth can be accelerated
by certain training methods and the proper environment .
In turn that same plant can be harmed by certain training methods and
improper environments.
Finding the sweet spot is what I seek .

The birthday was certainly one I will remember glad to see things going so well here

and yes, the big 61. I remember feeling old when I turned 21. Very happy and blessed to feel and live as I do I think.

have an awesome start to your week mates

Day #29
The plants have shown great horizontal growth .
They are filling out with full leafs and a very strong and large main stem .
Bud sites are developing and preflower is occurring ( as of yesterday )
Especially in one particular plant.
The vertical growth is not as impressive .
Did up potting “ stunt “ their vertical progress ?
IDK.
I have about 785 w of light ( actual ).
The first couple weeks I only had the veg switch , of one light , on.
Then I switched to full 785 w for last couple weeks.
I wonder if this caused or affected the vertical growth ?
Too much light ? No reason to grow up so they just got bushy ?
There is no other sign of any light burn.
My other grows , photoperiods , stayed relatively short and bushy , until I flipped
to 12/12. The 3 weeks after flip resulted in 75% of vertical growth.
I wonder if these auto’s will do the same ?
Any opinions ?

I just believe they havent hit their stretch period yet. They look happy in their shortness, with great lift of the leaves. I don't see stunting, I see plants working on their roots and about to hit a strong vertical growth period after getting their root systems in order in the fresh soil. Just because you don't see vertical growth now, doesn't mean the plant has stunted... stunted plants don't lift like that.

Thanks Em. Congrats on your new career as well.
Sort of new career
I didn’t really think they were stunted . Not with the over all appearance .
I know a lot of energy has been used establishing the root system.
The very reason I tried up potting was to establish good foundations.
I was wondering if the “ stretch “ in auto’s is similar to photos ?

a plant is a plant is a plant.... they just do it faster and earlier, but all cannabis seems to stretch a bit when entering bloom.

I feel you’ll be seeing quite a spirt taking place soon. Really like the developing structure so far, good work mate.

We will see how they do in the stretch.
Thanks Hyper.

So I looked back at my last grow @ 30 days of veg.
Now these are photo period.
But the growth is very similar.

Day # 32
These plants are steadily filling out and growing in all directions.
Preflower is evident in all 3 girls but especially the one.
I have been on a 20/4 light schedule and will plan on staying there.
The RH keeps dipping to the low 50’s.
My humidifier is not keeping up so I added a water pan and wet towels.
Week #4 FF feeding schedule this week but I think , w/ the preflower , I will move to Week 5 and a scheduled flush of the soil this weekend.
They are encredibaly healthy in all appearances.
I have done some minor defoliation.
The lower leaves and a very few for access to bud sites for light.

If you're looking to do a bit more thinning, I would take all those leaves hovering over the soil down low.

 

[SeniorMoments]

The leaves appear droopy because I just fed them and did a follier spray a little earlier.

Thanks Shed.
I just wasn’t sure if it was to late to do much with pistils starting to show ?
