First date I can tell I see pistols is the 25th so I flipped on the 15th and noticed pistoles by the 25th I just looked back in pics can’t remember if I seen any in between those dates . Just not sure what day to call 1
I always count first of pistols as my first day of bloom.

I am personally choosing to follow suit. 
I usually go by soon as I see pistils.myself . You get pre flower stage for week to two usually where they can stretch out .

Thanks cass , I am super happy with how everything is growing now , and for being week 3 of flower ( 3 weeks since I seen first pistols ) the buds are already frosty , my last grow wasn’t even this frosty at the end of harvest so I am very happy and VERY excited. I will get some nice bud shots tonight , but I am very impressed with the genetics from humboldt Seed organization. I am glad I have clones because I am going to make a small mother and try and dial in growing this strain. But I am very happy
Steady as she goes.

UPDATE- hey everyone , just did a little bit of work in the tent and wanted to include it in an update , I went through and got rid of all leaves blocking light and to help with airflow around the bud sites, I have a fan blowing cool air up into the canopy from the floor in front of the air intake.
So officially this plant is 3 weeks from sight of first pistols, 4 weeks since the flip. She is progressing well and at this stage , this plant has more trichomes then my last run did at harvest.
ENVIRONMENT- so this are pretty much the same lights on 28 deg Celsius and lights off around 19 deg Celsius and a relative humidity of 40%, winds are blowing strong , I can’t light a lighter anywhere in between the canopy and the lights so no hot spots.
I just took a few photos of her
THESE COLAS ARE STACKED , so happy

I hope ya’ll have a great day , thanks for taking the time out of your day to read my journal , it means a lot to me , and I really do appreciate all the help from all you. Until next time , keep it real and as always happy growing everyone !!

Hey everyone , so I’m going to start my first auto seed. I have been doing some research and from what I read , autos don’t need the same stuff as photos , from what I read it’s saying that they don’t need as much nitrogen the less is more kinda deal, so what I’m not sure about is , since I use gaja green organics what kind of ratio should I be doing for these guys , if I use the 75% 4-4-4 and 25% 2-8-4 I will get about 5 weeks out of the amendments, but that will put me into the flower stage , is this going to be too much nitrogen for this stage ?? Or should I just start off with a 50/50% of the all purpose 4-4-4 and powerbloom 2-8-4 . I just don’t know the veg times on autos . I just wanted to pick a few of your brains to see you guys think
I think you’ll be fine with what you’re using. Modern autos are very similar to their photo versions.
I always start at 1/4 dose bro

@Kingjoe83 I used to when I did bottled nutes but with dry amendments they don’t break down all at once it’s a slow process and only what has been broken down is what the plant can take up, I was just doing research on autos and I seen a few things that said the opposite so I wanted everyone’s feedback. But when it says 3 tbs per gal I use 2 so I do cut it back but i wasn’t sure about using veg amendments with autos cause of the short veg time , first time doing autos so I was unsure . How’s the seeds going joe
I feed veg nutes until I see flowers, pretty much the same as photos. I've grown some 1/2 pound autos in the past.
