Chrissy hit the bottom of the pot today catching her sister.

Stay in clone tent again tonight. I prefer to give them daylight, but more importantly, I need them to get bigger, so tent it is for now.

They seem slow, but steady pushing out the third true set of leaves today.

Super happy, the girls are loving life. Both are beginning to crowd the bottom of the pots, so above and below they are steadily getting bigger.

Ill push them as long as I can in the small pots, not ideal, but hopefully they stay in the tent longer where they seem to love it.

Get some measurements up tomorrow.

These auto girls keep marching along, looking a super healthy N infused green. Adalita has a weird lighter stripping, perhaps its a trait rather than light stress.

Going to have to put their feet in bigger shoes, they are powerfully pushing below the soil.


Measure tomorrow. (Benchmark 1 fortnight). Best guess they are halfway through their veg, so uppot, feed, top. Will be squeezing time to complete.

So the girls went into developing the fourth set of leaves in earnest, and pushed outwards on existing leaves.

Kind of impressive how they can make such large solar (or faux solar) collectors so quickly.

The Indica is strong with these two, slightly more so with Chrissy.

Also they've started the nodal growth, which heartens me greatly.

Chrissy has had to reach a little more since her stepsisters got favoured for position under the clone light, and her nodal spacing shows it, even in this short time.

It does mean shes got a larger frame than Adalita.

Although not  amazing , Im happy overall. Certainly better than my first attempt haha. Embarassing Autos



Did not start well
Sunday was going to be repot day but I might just wait as shed is expected to be finished by Wed night.

I will reassess if they continue crowding the bottom of the pot, its certainly vigorous, with no signs of slowing.

Hoping to get a feed in, but Im yet to pick up the BCB. Im pinch hitting with kelp and castings atm. Im certain they would benefit.

Once everything is in order with my grow space lets see if better results cant be forced on them.

For now Im overall content they are healthy, growing, and have a mostly stable environment to do their thing.

Pics tell the story. Little change.

4th set developing/emerging.


Girls are having to deal with cool temps ( 17/18c). Freezing wet cold day outside.

Just keeping score so I can look back.

Some better spring weather is on the horizon. Im sure a bit of natural daylight will work wonders.

Ill have a look around, but thats the style yes.
@Carcass turned me on to these a year or so ago. Great little fans. It’s $20 for a a two-pack I believe.
Of course he did.

If thats $20 USD, with conversion and shipping be around $698.06 Aud....lol! JK.

Ill have a look around the electronics stores on the www, and see whats what.

Picked up the Back Country Blend (Veg/Bloom/Boost) for the girls today, as well as Great White mycos.

Ill give them their first feed today.

They are still going strong like their namesakes, and a big part of that really has to go to @Barney's Farm supplied by @CoffeeShopSeeds who are sponsors of the 420 forum.

Im waivering on whether to top or not. So weigh in guys, let me know your opinions, 1, 2 or neither.

Given them a bit of bending and stem manipulation to start the hardening process.

Prepped the soil for the girls to go to bigger homes, they really are ready, past ready. Going to be crowded in that little tent shortly.
 
Those are some pretty girls!
I top everything, so I'm a bit biased...
But you can top them and train them, or top and don't train them - either way, you'll get a bit more weed than if you just let them go natural....
 
I top above the 4th node - it usually works out to be about the same time they start flowering...apx. day 21, more often than not.
Some autos will give you a little more time, but you can't count on that ..

Great info. Happily follow that guide. Legend.

Hyper aware of the clock ticking.

Breeders notes suggest they are on the shorter side too.
