Good day to you all!
I hope so far the day has brought you trichome galore !
LOL you guys make me laugh, think this should get voted for journal of the month award HAHA (I wish).
Ok ... Jay 233 Hello mate and thank you. I shall be buying a new 400w HPS either today or tomorrow but I wont be using it for another 2-3 weeks so I have plenty of time. I'm actually thinking of pumping up the current CFL's I have with double the amount just to help things along. These 'strip' CFL's were very cheap from my local hardware store for only £7.49 each and they come with fixings etc ...
I'm probably just going to use my usual nutrients of just a grow and bloom solution and I'll splash out on them for other supplements when or if they need them. (You guys can help me out judging from my updates and pictures so please don't hold back with anything that you think will help my little ladies perform at their best!)
Hello Berri! And thank you very much, glad to have you on the journey! I'll be looking forward to seeing your grow and comparing our outcome! OZ BRIT has just started too so we'll all be running together
LMAO Reg, you're in the right place if you're looking for munchies. The cake we made last night only got half way through the decorations before we thought, "MEH can't be arsed anymore I got the mofo munchies". So now we have half a cake that's half finished! Never the less it tasted AMAZING! I tried a new icing today and jheeeeez I have been missing out!
News on the little ladies
Woke up this morning and to my shock, 2 of the little buggers had grown so much overnight they were about 3/4 inch away from the CFL's !?!? AHHHHH!!!!!!
Luckily no damage whatsoever was done. Phewwww!
They are absolutely thriving and all of the Auto's are clearly ahead of the Berry Delights.
The Auto Critical is definately showing her 3rd node now and the Auto AK 47 is shortly following. All others are on or just starting their 2nd node.
Loving these little ladies more and more everyday and I can't wait to see the final outcome.
Also. I've been having a little think and I'm going to be carrying out a little experiment with different sized pots.
The Berry Delight that has fallen behind shall go into one of my usual 15 litre pots which then shall be vegged for 2 months or so while going through Light Addict's "Torture Treatment". The other Berry Delight and AK 47 shall also be transferred into the 15 litre pots but will be grown only as normal. (Slight topping, defol and LST. The AK 47 will only go through minor defol).
The other 2 Auto's I'm thinking about trying 2 smaller sized pots. Maybe one in a 10 litre and the other in a 7.5 litre. I want to compare the rooting growth and yield differences aswell as other features that using smaller pots can cause.
I shall be experimenting throughout the 3 AUTOFLOWER journals I shall be going to do so please any input on those or maybe even some ideas you have of your own, all would be much appreciated!
Thank you to everyone for their help and to those that made this possible.
Thankyou
May you all have a very green day !
