Brix, Buds & Blades: Knifemaker420's Auto Perpetual Garden

[Knifemaker420]

Update day 42

Hey everyone hopefully you all had a great weekend. I know I did
Father's Day sunday saw me on the golf course for 18 holes then spent the rest of the day playing Red Dead Redemption 2 on the xbox. My wife had to work and my daughter is 12 so friends are more important than dad lol

Yesterday my Wife and I celebrated our 13 year wedding anniversary. Our schedules are opposite right now so we'll go for dinner on her day off thursday.

Now for the garden
Tonight was water/feed night in the tent. Another 5 gal before I got runoff.
Now that Gelaoto is flowering I shouldnt be letting it get as dry as when it was vegging right?

Northern lights (Min) seems to be a bit unhappy, slightly yellowing on some leaves and some tacoing on some.
Still very slowly pushing pistils out on a couple of the very tops.

Zkittles (Aviendha) is growing alot now. Huge fan leaves compared to the other 2 plants.

Still no sign of pistils yet but it is growing these...

Are those where the haors will come out if its a girl? It looks different than the others so not sure if its a male or just growing different.
The pictures I see of male parts also look a bit different than these

Now for the star of the show Elayne (Gelato)
Stretching like crazy and lots of little buds. Looking nice and level and my leaf bending is keeping it very open. (I have trimmed off maybe 6 leaves but never more than 2 at a time)

Thanks for dropping by,
Have a knife day.
StaySharp

Happy anniversary to you and your wife @Knifemaker420 13 years!! That’s a hell of an accomplishment lol!

When you say you watered another 5 g before you saw run off. Are you watering continuously? Or letting the water fill up then drain and repeat?

Your plants are looks awesome! Especially your gelato!

Oh, and those look like female parts to me, how long has it been in flower?

Thanks, this day and age 13 yrs is an accomplishment. Too many willing to just throw in the towel when stuff gets tough. Relationships , like cannabis plants, take work and need to be nurtured.
That 5 gal is between all 3 plants and I water 2 cups at a time. I slowly pour the water around the edges of the pot and then do the next one and the next. By the time Ive wayered tje second 2 the first one is good to take another 2 cups. It takes me about 45min to an hour to finish the process.
Those bits in that close up pic are on my Zkittles plant as of yet it hasnt started flowering. Havent seen a single pistil on it yet.

 

[Knifemaker420]

Oh, forgot to mention I got some more seeds.
4 Dark Devil autos, and 2 Aurora Borealis autos.
Choosing what I want to grow next is going to be tough.

Hey Knife! Looking great in the garden congrats on 13 years with the wife!
Elayne sure is a beauty and is flowering well.

Are those where the haors will come out if its a girl?

It is where her hairs should begin to come out. It definitely looks like lady parts to me and not a male!

Northern lights (Min) seems to be a bit unhappy, slightly yellowing on some leaves and some tacoing on some.

Maybe some extra calmag will fix her up? Is she receiving the same feeding as Elayne and the others?

Nice! It's always exciting getting new beans I have only done one of Sweet Seeds autos but it was impressive!

Ok good to hear that its most likely a female. Like I said it is doing things differently than the others so I wasnt sure.

Yes all 3 are getting the same feedings I mix a 5 gal jug and dole it out 2 cups at a time untill i get run off. Im feeding about 3/4 the recommended amount on my chart from A.N and full strength calmag. Should I give a bit more calmag next time?

Ive been wanting to try DDA for awhile now and true north seed bank just had a sale so I decided to grab some. I'll probably drop one in my next run.

Oops double posted somehow. Disregard lol

Should I give a bit more calmag next time?

I was going to suggest that i think that should fix her up. If it doesn't help her out much in the next week maybe consider feeding her separately at full strength?

With Gelato so far ahead of the other 2 I'm probably going to have to start watering seperately anyway. She's probably going to be thirstier than the others and from what I e been reading they want to stay a bit on the moist side in flower instead of letting it dry right out before watering. She will also be getting big bud along with the other nutes.
I've already been giving them full doses of calmag but only 3/4 strength of the M-G-B

Not stopped by for a while and I must say great job knife your plants look great and congrats on your 13th wedding anniversary

Update day 46

Had to water again already this evening. Thirsty girls!.

All 3 are packing on growth but Min (NL) is looking a bit yellowy. She got a special mox with a bit more calmag in it as per recent suggestion above. Hope it pulls her out of it.

Min has been showing pistils for about a week now but only on a couple of the main tops. Deffinately flowering slower than Gelato did.

Zkittles (Aviendha) is still growing strong tho still with no pistils visible yet.

Elayne (Gelato) is packing on the flowers. They are beginning to get frosty and a few pistils are turning orange. Is it time to harvest yet ?? Lol lol lol

Thanks for looking
Have a knife weekend

Hey everyone a mini photo dump update today just because its day 48 and Zkittles has officially popped a pistil!
Aviendha (Zkittles)

First pistil

Min (NL)

Min is still not looking very happy after her upped calmag the other day. Still some canoed leaves but the yellowing doesn't appear to be getting worse?

Elayne (Gelato) just keeps doin her thang getting frosty already and starting to smell a bit fruity and sweet over a hint of warm garbage.... hope that goes away...

And lastly a view of mars through the leaves

StaySharp all

 

[Backlipslide]

and starting to smell a bit fruity and sweet over a hint of warm garbage.... hope that goes away...

I hope so too bro!! Funny thing is, I understand that smell lmao

 

[N420]

Looks great Knife happy ladies you have there.
Nice job on your training even canopy covered in bud sites

Just throwing out an idea maybe bump the feed for N.L to full strength she may just be a hungry girl. If you do get some nute burn on her tips after the full feed just bump it down a little

 

[Tomuk17]

Plants are looking great mate, elayne looks brilliant not be long now lol
