Day 8, this pheno got a rough start.. Very weak stem, it was flopping way over 90° at the weakest point, so I chose to try to support it with something. All I can do now is hope it survives.

The struggle is real for her but she is pressing on. Not much growth this week but I look forward with a positive mind.

Hi guys Im spotting some problems this week. Or at least i think there are problems. First not the problems, LOL. Plant 1, 4 and 5 i think i will harvest in 2 week +/- , also depending on the time i have. But i will give them 1.5/2 more week until i harvest. See if some amber trichs appear The problem here are: 1st - Plants 2 and 3, seem to be blocked, Plant 2 got some signals of nutrient burn, but that i think is solved im only watering with water now. Plant 2 also seems to be re- veging , she is growing new leaves and branches on the lower canopy. But she is also slowly slowly flowering compared to the other 3 plants almost on harvest. Plant 3, this one i dont understand, leaves are green , she started flowering like 3/4 weeks ago but very very slowly, and i dont find any signals of problems related to watering or nutrient burn, the leaves are good lets say that. I removed the plant from the pot to look the roots, and actually for me they look good, ok they probably need 10L pot, but transplant now, i think to late. 2nd - The holes on my pots, where the out comes out, got some white thing , i dont now if that is mold. But its strange, and almost all the holes and the pots got that. 3rd - The water that is coming out still got that brow/ argila color, and im watering only with water. Questions Problem 1 - Are plant 2 and 3 blocked because roots are blocked? Should i cut the lower and small branches and let only the top canopy ? Problem 2 - Is that actually mold? or something related to the intake fan? someone experienced that? Problem 3 - Is that a normal color for the water? could be because of the organic nutrients from RQS that are slowly being released ? Any other comments will be appreciated Thanks, and good grows for everyone

Slowly tapered the nutes mainly just watering with 1/8 tsp per gal. of open sesame. Since I'm new I'm compiling everything I've read and making an educated guess at how I am supposed to flush these girls for 2 weeks. But simultaneously never just feeding plain water... What do you guys think? How close are we. Need tips

the girl is growing quite well :) clearly there is little space for her root system :) I changed the time to 12/12 because the first pistils have already appeared :) the girl moved in with an older relative :) so I had to move her up a little to be closer to the light :)

Week 5 since light switch to 12/12 The terps are AMAZING and very very strong. Entire place smells when I open the tent. And lingers for way too long. So hard to pin down the exact smell as it changes through the weeks. Sweet creamy skunky gas with a slight new shoe smell. Like that strong brand new fresh rubber or plastic smell you get when you open a brand new pair of sneakers. Everything the same as last few weeks. Same feeding and nutes. I switched to nutes that have zero nitrogen around week 3 but wish I waited another week as my leaves are getting yellow pretty fast already. Assuming it is the nitrogen that's causing it. Buds look super frosty though!!

Hello everyone and welcome to week 9 and day 57 for these two Fast Buds Strawberry Bananana Autos. These two have gone mad! Beyonce is 81cm tall and well into flower as you can see. Solange on the other hand was 118cm tall and had passed the light so I super cropped her two tallest colas a few days ago. She is now 98cm Fertigated 10l 4 days ago and 7.5l today. Day 60: Fertigated 10l Day 62: The plants are now too big and/or heavy with bud to move out of the tent to photograph, and so with thanks to @growbigorgohome who suggested it, I have got a selfie stick to do in-tent photography. It's not great but it's better than nothing! Hopefully the videos will show plenty of details. Anyway I am starting to routine again now, the plants haven't gone more than 3 days without feeding, and I should be back to every other day again now. These two girls are really amazing. Beyonce is way ahead in terms of bud development, but Solange vegged longer and stretched more she was so massive I had to super-crop two colas! Anyway they are really motoring along now, I think Beyonce will be ready 2 weeks before Solange. Despite it is only day 62 we are rapidly approaching the end game here.

The Titan is growing as I had hoped. The many side branches are growing larger and in the center is a nice main cola. Beside the LST clips a few weeks ago, no more training is needed it seems. I did some defoilation to optimize the airflow and to give the developing buds in the side branches more light. More pics and updates coming later this week. The Titan is developing a really nice flowery/citrus like smell. I added some Bio Tabs Bio PK 5-8 to the mix to support the many buds she is forming.

LST has done wonders for her, she has completely transformed from where she was a month ago. She is bushing out really well and I can't wait for her to finish stretching, and for her buds to start forming. Make sure to follow along to continue to grow with me !

D64. A new week starts, and the stretch continues. Sigh. The first girl stopped at 80 cm, while the second is over 130 cm and still stretching. If she doesn't stop soon, I'll be in real trouble. Quite frustrating since it will affect both yield and quality. I added a few sachets with predatory Cucumeris mites to the girls. There are no problems, and I haven't scouted any bugs, but since I had thrips in the tent in the previous grow, I want to be proactive in case some bugs survived. I gave the second girl 2.5 liters of water @ pH 6.5, with bokashi and fermented fruit juice. ------------------------------ D67. The second girl stretched even more to a point where one of the tops touched a light. To combat this problem, I removed the first girl and put her in my small drying tent since my LSD-25 was just done drying. It's a wee bit tight, and I had to add some side-lighting to get enough photons to her, but it should work out. The yield will take a hit, but I suspect the second girl will more than make up for it. I moved the second girl into the middle of the tent and thus could bend the tops outward, creating more space to the light. I also removed additional foliage in her lower canopy. The second girl is massive, by far the largest auto I've grown, and she drinks a lot and requires daily watering. Considering her size, I am concerned that she will run out of nutrients, so I need to devise a strategy for keeping her fed. Topdressing will be tricky as the pot is already quite full, but I will add as much as possible and then feed compost teas often. ------------------------------ D70. We're at the end of the sixth week of flower, and the second girl is still stretching. She has slowed down, but one of the tops I already had bent hit the light, so I had to bend it even more. I top-dressed the second girl today to give her a boost, considering her size. I used kelp powder, rock dust, neem meal, calcified seaweed, and worm castings. She then got 2 liters of water @ pH 6.5, with fulvic and humic acid. ------------------------------

Hey guys, We are getting very close to the harvest, I would say one more week and I'll be ready to cut her down. Smell start to pungent and I love it! Buds are pretty compact but relatively small. I can see by the end of the week most of leaves are turning yellow, sign that the plant its releasing the last energies. Trichomes are mostly cloudy and for now there's no sign of ambers one. I'll keep you guys posted with the harvest week. Stay tuned, stay high!

FBT5 in Mr. B's has been no trouble at all so far, still moist in there so i've not watered on day 5, spraying the soil with amino, did one foliar this week on day 5. Probably will fix the fan over the weekend so it's pointing straight up. FBT5 is an interesting one, vigorous in many ways, it seems to be working hard below grownd . anyway I'll try to get an in soil pH reading on the Mr. B's asap. but it will mostly be secondary nutrients and co2 from now on.
