Another Stab At An Auto: A Zkittles In My Veg Tent

[Stormblessed]

Ok so here we go, my first 2 autos didn’t end well, never made it to flower, and I think they were photos anyway, I have a clone still kicking around just not sure what it’s gonna do, so I wanted to give autos another try, since I have the beans already, 25 days ago I planted a zkittles seed right into a 5gal fabric pot with ff happy frog soil and a few day’s later she was above ground, I just watered for a week or so and have been watering and feeding with the rest of my vegging girls, today I did a little lst so figured it was a good time to start a journal, the lights r a couple blurple I have for veg till I can upgrade, but I have het right under one of them, it is “1000” watt equivalent, it pulls like 185w from the wall and the other pulls like 100w, temps stay between 68-73 and I’m using gh 3 part with a couple extras, it’s my first time using soil so it’s kinda a learning curve with watering and feeding, I’ve used DWC up to this point and still mostly do, here’s a few pictures of her today

U can see the clone in question in the solo cup in the bottom right of last picture lol

Everything is looking up and up, pointing in the correct direction

Here is an update, not much growth since the lst but she looks healthy and happy, well at least not pissed lol

 

[Stormblessed]

Actually now that I see it side by side there was a good amount of growth since Friday

Looking good....

 

[Stormblessed]

Here she is, looks like she is going ok, I took a couple big fan leaves to get some light in there

 

[Stormblessed]

Did a little trim today, and slight lollipop but just gonna let her go and see what happens lol

 

[Stormblessed]

First shot is her home, kinda crowded at the moment, only another week till most of them move to the flower tent, and sorry bout the blurple lol and here she is after a little trim, she looks to have started flower about a week ago, she is in the middle of the crowd

 

[Stormblessed]

Here she is, buds r setting and now she is a lot less crowded since everyone else moved to the flower tent

 

[Stormblessed]

She is coming along nicely, not the biggest plant but the buds r stacking up and she is getting frosty, there is a shot before I defoliated and after

 

[Stormblessed]

A pictorial update, not much else to do but watch lol I haven’t had any success with autos so I’m excited about her, even though she is kinda small

 

[Stormblessed]

Here is a quick picture update, I put one of my ts600 in the veg tent with her, it’s a little easier on the eyes, here she is with her room mates, the 4 on the right r 3 chem 91 clones and a gorilla glue clone, I have had a bad run on germing seeds so luckily I had a few clones I hadn’t gotten rid of yet, I think it’s the new 1in rockwool cubes I got, the last 6 seeds have cracked and started to sprout but as soon as I put them in the rock wool they just stop, I ordered some rapid rooters to see it that’s the issue

The tiny one in the back left is a Pineapple Express auto

 

[Stormblessed]

So the leaves look pretty droopy, I have kinda been feeling like I been over watering the past while, think that could b the issue?

 

[Stormblessed]

So I thought I was overwatering her and haven’t watered of feed in about a week, I’m not sure what I did but she isn’t happy with me lol any suggestions would b greatly appreciated

 

[Stormblessed]

I’m not exactly sure when she started flower but the trichs r looking close to me, I pulled off a lower bud and trimmed the leaves off and put it under the microscope

 

[Stormblessed]

I was being lazy and didn’t want to bust out the microscope so I did a phone zoom number, can’t really tell much but looks cloudy with a chance of amber lol

I would flush and start back feeding half strength, autos don’t handle stress as well as photos. I lst and top my autos but that’s all before day 21. Your plant looks decent I just recommend a little less stress on the autos. Happy growing

 

[Stormblessed]

Thanks for the input, I did do a flush and she seemed to take well to it, I was just gonna start the final water only but I forgot and fed her a couple days ago, she is about week 6-7 into flower
