Soil - 300W Mars LED - Sweet Fast Bud #2 Auto Fem

[Oful33]

Just do not get hooked on it! It can be good servant in time of need but not so when you wanna quit. Buy some cheap ass coffee nobody buys. I mean stores throw away so much food it is unbearable! I wish you luck with it!

Oh wow Tomula, I really do like your new avatar

I have done some research and it appears coffee grounds are around 4-7 ph. Depends on the coffee itself, it appears people found viniger very usefull so I'll just try that instead.

Anyway, an unexpected update. I'm having day off today so I'm kinda bored, was reading some journals and it appears that SCROG should work better with LST. so here we go.

Day 16, still vegging

I've done some minor changes, tried to bend her down but stem seems quite thick. So bent her down slightly using 2 strings. Here are some pictures and a painting to understand how is she bent down.

I'll wait soil to get dry and I'll water her with tap water with some viniger in it. I'll use 1-2tbsp of viniger in 1 gallon of water.

View from above and side.

Lots of love and happy growing everyone

Oh very nice, you can even prune her to get more lights to the lateral buds! Thanks, my avatar is 100% true to my appearance and has been crafted with all my brush and mouse skills! Happy growing!

I laughted way too hard at this. I'd love and I want to prune her, but since it's an auto I think I'll pass. It's my first auto and I hear these ladies don't like being stressed.

Day 20 of vegging.
Or day 1 of flowering? (showed sex)

Quite a lot has happened this week, and it was pretty busy week in general

So I started LST, she is now developing more tops. Bottom branches going to the very top.
I watered her 3 days ago with viniger mixture. useb 2,5 tablespoons of viniger in 5l of water. It dropped ph to 6,3~ for a day, it raised to 6,8~ after, then it just got back to 7,3~. I guess I'll just keep on using viniger, better temporary drop than none at all.

I had issues with the light, it developed a fault about 3-4 days ago. half of LED's are not working, had to bring the light closer. Well, that atleast helped to reduce temps. (I'm trying to get that light sorted, but it's causing a little bit of inconvenience as might have to send it back to repair and use the 45w at the worst possible time)

Received 5" black orchyd fan. Oh dear lord it's so loud and can't use with speed controller because motor starts making buzzing sound. It makes it even louder and it's kinda scary. I ordered another one like my current one, it's silent and is fan controller friendly.

I won't change anything yet, I won't use flowering nutes just yet, will feed veg ones once and will go for tiger bloom.

It is hard to see, but there is a first pistil

Thanks everyone that was supporting me over this time, I highly appreciate it. I'm pretty sure the fun part is about to begin soon and I will try to provide you with some nice bud porn. Happy growing

Oh she looks fantastic! Sorry to hear about the light man. There are 4 drivers each for quarter of the diodes in my older light, so that means 2 died at the same time? Interesting. I did open my light right when it came because I'm curious fella. But if they repair it for you that's better than if you had to manage all of that by yourself. Looks like a busy week. I wish you all luck with your grow!

looks healthy great job!

I'm terrible when it comes to stuff like that, wouldn't be able to tell a thing. All I know is that when I opened a light case there was 2 power supplys and each of them had one lead to LED panel and another one to somewhere else, also a fan

And thanks for a compliment, Elizabete is greatful

looks healthy great job!

Thanks a lot xave, nice to see you here

I've just whipped her a little bit, her brances are tied down to the sides so she could be shorter and branches would receive more light. I'm pretty sure I counted 8 possible tops already

Also fed her same nutrients tea, the one that proboably caused her leaves tips to get a little brown. This time I have used like 0,5tbps in 3l of water.

Also note for myself, viniger + water gets back to it's defaut Ph after some time. I watered her with 7-8ph water which was 6~ previously. Didn't realized the ph will get back to what it was before.

Pics on weekend, as always. Happy growing, lots of love

Day 26 from seed, Day 6 after showing sex

Today is an update date, welcome curious growers

I have fed her about 1/8 tbsp of calmag and 1/8 tbsp of foxfarm tiger bloom mixed with 2l of water. It appears she liked it, growing nicely. Few more pistils have appeared, I haven't grew autoflowers before but I think she's starting to flower, very slowly

She's still growing in size, however might have been bigger by now if I had my light fixed earlier. She spent a little bit more than a week on half of LED's (i assue it's safe to say 150w instead of 300w), but I have got a new one today (same light) and she's now sunbathing infront of the 300w LED

I have added extra exhaust fan, so I have 2 same fans next to each other now. I have also put a net on and I will start to SCROG soon. I love how the tops are getting bright green now.

I'm quite happy with the results so far, everything seems under control, hope she will get massive soon and grow a lot of budsites

 

[Tomula]

That's gonna be one big happy girl! Good job I like how she looks like ball of green. Keep it up!

Day 34 from seed - Day 14 after showing sex

Hello everybody

A little update here. Looks like she's growing quite rapidly (not as fast as I would like her to, but she's doing fine). I tuck her branches under the net almost every day. Friday I tucked them, Saturday when I got back home from work few of them were about an inch above the net already.

She started producing more pistils, no signs of resin yet

Next time when I will water her I'll use 1/2 tbsp of foxfarm and 1/8 tbsp calmag in 5l water. This is about to happen in 1-2 days as she's slowly getting dry. Separated tent in half for both plants. There is a Delicious Candy Feminised growing next to her so she needs space as well, about a week old or so (can see in first picture). I think I won't make a journal on that one.

I love to watch this stage of her life

Here are some pictures

Before tucking today

Last picture is after tucking today

Thanks to everyone that has passed by and happy growing

Day 41 from seed - Day 21 after showing sex

Quick update here

She's slowly stopping to grow in size, bud sites getting bigger. Few bottom leaves have fallen off after becoming brown and dry. Some yellowing on the bottom leaves, trying to stop this but not sure what's the issue. Keep on using viniger to stabilize ph so I guess it can't be nutes lockout.

Put a duct around a light and connected it to the duct that gets the air out of the tent so hot air from light would get out of the tent instantly. Temps dropped by 2-3 degrees . (forgot to take the picture) Also put light a little higher, it's around 16" now.

Everything is fine, just the bottom leaves yellowin worrying me a little bit.

Happy growing

Thank! Any idea what should I do about the yellowing?

Well, you might try to add some cal/mag. Just a little, see if it helps. I do not know what else. You might try to find the solution in the troubleshooting section of the forums. Happy growing!

Day 48 from seed - Day 28 flowering

I'm sleepy, I'll be quick with this one.

Basicly, she's growing still some yellowing, trying to sort it out to stop from spreading any more. I think I'm moving to the right direction. It feels like I need to find correct amount of nutrients to use so that it would be enough but not too much. But she's sooo sensitive.

Resting time... Happy growing

Day 55 from seed - Day 35 flowering

It looks like everything has slowed down, can't say I am impressed with overall results, but who knows how much will it will weight at the end when dry, I hope the buds will be nice and tasty.

More yellowing appeared, I think she got 1-2 weeks max before harvest. Was feeding fox farms bloom 1/2 dosage lately, will go by intructions next watering, wont decrease by half. And than later on just water I guess. Not sure should I water with just plain water or add viniger to drop ph to correct level.

Anyway, some pictures.

Hi man, I was away for a while. Looking good here, not bad buds at all and lovely trichs everywhere. Keep it up! Thanks for sharing this wonderful pics of yours.
