Dutchman's Auto Quads Vs LST With A Critical+2.0 Twist!

[Dutchman1990]

Highya Dutchie,

Love that closeup of the Crystal Candy. She has some very nice trichomes! I think you are right about the Pineapple express Quadline. The 4 tips have grown noticeably. Are they still stretching? Looks like she'll outproduce the lst'd PE 2 to 1. That would be awesome, especially in an auto. Cheers

So they are still stretching and growing and I agree it will definitely outperform PEa2 as long as she bounces back strong to the finish

Man you have some nice looking plants going. I think your PEa1 is making some progress, your just gonna have to keep an eye on her and make sure she srays on the right track. I was wondering if you expect to see any noticeable difference in yeild with the quadline or is it pretty similar compared to just doing lst?

To be honest this is my first attempt at quadline so I’m really not sure what to expect but from visually seeing the plants I would say qaudline has the potential for a higher yield at the moment but time can change things so we will see

You're killing it over there Dutchie! Holy cow!

You're gonna be really with them PE's as they start stretching their legs. Ooooooooh Weeeee! Gonna have some serious meds there, buddy!

Thanks Preston I was hoping they would be bigger but if they all turn out well I’m happy

I'm seeing progress now. Keep it up

Thanks Derby! Fingers crossed she’s looking as good or better tomorrow!

Hey everyone! Just a quick update today. I was pretty busy so didn’t get a chance to check back in on PEa1 later today so hopefully she’s looking well tomorrow as well and I can start focusing on her getting to the finish line.

Auto Squad!

All the autos seem happy after their feeding yesterday. Praying to the lights and looking green, lovely and healthy all around. I’ll get some good photos of the girls tomorrow!

Critical+2.0 girls have begun their stretching with bright green new growth and are looking fantastic! No signs of pistils yet but they are still early. Their mom showed pistils around day 8 so I’m expecting to see them by the end of the weekend probably. All in all these girls are very impressive looking and I can wait to se them with a thick canopy of resin covered buds!

Hope you all have a great remainder of the day and be safe!

Hi Dutch... driving by, catching up, things looking great. Nice job managing to quadline those autos

Sorry I missed your flipday party... sometimes my life situation makes the band a bit unreliable...

 

[Preston9mm]

Thanks Preston I was hoping they would be bigger but if they all turn out well I’m happy

Pretty sure the stretch on my PEa was around 200% buddy. I'm betting you get some more outta them girls before they're done.

Hi Amy! Glad you could make it by and not to worry! The party must go on haha!

Sweet I like the sounds of that Preston! PEa1 seems to be turning around and looks even better today so I’m hopeful she’s got some good growth in her still! She’s the biggest of all the autos so I can’t wait to see how she makes out!

Here she is today looking much happier!

I agree and I am really happy it has perked up because it is easily the star of the show. Might just be my opinion because I am partial to the way the quadline looks but I think it's going to be a pretty big girl.

What’s going on everyone! Another beautiful Friday is here and the start of the weekend! I’ve got some exciting plans with the fiancé tonight ... we’re going dancing! Should be a great time then a nice dinner is planned for afterwards! Been a while since we had a nice date night so figured it was something different and fun! But enough about me let’s get to what we are here for... the plants!!

Well this morning when I went to go check on the girls I got a pleasant smile on my face!

PEa1 is looking even better today than she was yesterday so I don’t want to jinx it but I think she may be turning around for the better! She’s gots lots of pistils popping out now and is getting bigger still! You can see how she’s easily the biggest auto of the 4 and to my surprise Is still getting bigger!! I really am excited to see her turn around fully with perky leaves and start praying to the lights!

PEa2 is growing steady still with a bit of stretch still happening. She’s starting to focus on bud growth now though as more pistils are shooting out and making an appearance. Not quite as heavy as the CCa girls! They are exploding with fresh white pistils all over the place! CCa2 is beginning to stack and has some impressive frost compared to all the others! CCa1 quad is doing well and starting to build her size as well. Not quite as big as her rivalry PE quad but she’s still looking fantastic.


Now onto these critical+2.0 ladies! They have really started the stretch now growing 1.5-2” since Wednesday. Today is Day 6 of flip and they are looking well on their way to a healthy stretch and hopefully some massive cola development! Seeing all the other critical girls around here I’ve got a good feeling about how these ladies will perform! I went and met @playerunknown last night and was lucky to see the mom of my criticals and I must say he’s done a splendid job on her and she smells and looks amazing! It made me even more excited to see how my girls will do in flower!

Thank Ase! I am pretty pleased with her so far is she stays happy and perky from here on out I’m sure she will definitely steal the starlight!

Fantastic work on the quads Dutch! You're killin it!

 

[InTheShed]

Congrats on PEa1 getting back in the swing of things. Funny how one plant didn't take a shine to the new lights, but nice to have it pull through and be the leader of the pack.

Have a great time tonight! Give us the dance-floor playlist so we can jam in our chairs tomorrow .

Thanks Prof!! I’m really happy with the critical quads and PEa1 is hopeful to become the star soon!

Thanks Shed! It is weird how only 1 was bothered but fingers crossed she will be the star of the show soon!

It was a blast! Going again Monday night so the fiancé really had a great night which is awesome!

The autos are doing well PEa2 is still stretching and getting bigger with her buds starting to take shape. Her sister PEa1 is still giving me up and downs. She looks good in the morning and then starts drooping later on. I noticed she’s drinking a lot though... she was basically dry already from the feeding the other day. Tomorrow I will be giving them all a good soaking.

CCa autos are both doing great! CCa2 is frosty already !!! She’s a very compact plant and I don’t know how much bigger she will get but the trichomes and smell on her so far are wicked! CCa1 quad is doing well and starting to frost up as well. I’ll get my macro lens out tomorrow and take some closeups!

Critical+2.0 girls are stretching a lot and have some great stacking! I can’t wait to start seeing buds on these girls!! Still no sign of pistils but it looks like they are very close. Tomorrow will be Day 8 in 12/12 and that’s when their mom showed pistils so I’m guessing sometime soon I will see some make an appearance. Patience I know..... but I’m eager to get these bigger girls flowering! They will both be needing a feed and water tomorrow as well. I am noticing they are just starting to pick up water drinking from every 4 or 5 days to now needing it every 3rd day. I’m expecting once they are in full bloom it will be every day or every other since these are only 3gal fabric pots it won’t take much for a big healthy plant to drink it dry so we will see!

But that about sums it up for today! See short and sweet as promised!

I hope you all are having an amazing weekend! Stay safe and stay medicated!

Just when you think you have PEa1 sorted out it fools you again! So weird that one with so much potential...great shape and loads of bud sites. I hope it finds a rhythm soon and give you a load of great buds!

Me to! She’s throwing me for a loop that’s for sure I’m not sure what to think of her. I have no clue why she’s acting the way she is just a finicky girl I guess! I’ll get her sorted out though I refuse to let her go! I’m confident she can finish out strong with some wicked buds!

These won’t be my last quadline autos that’s for sure! I think I could really get some good growth and great plants starting under these lights from the beginning and keeping it simple with no environment changes.

I’ve ordered a big batch of MegaCrop and I will be using it on my next grow. So I’m excited to see you use it as well as a few others I know !

 

[InTheShed]

I'm heading to get my credit card for the shipping now on that free sample. I thought it was interesting that @MrSauga is running his at 10.5g /gallon when the MC website recommends 4g/gallon. And he's in nuted soil to begin with. Must be some hungry plants!

I'm going to ask FelipeBlu what number he ran for his.

If you could post for me or PM me that number as well I would appreciate it! Trying to make sure I have these nutes dialed before actually using them!
