hi everyone, this is my first post here and first of all i would like to thank you all for the great info and journals that i have managed to find from rollitup i cant remember any specific posts but thank you
first some info
strain: Big bang automatic from greenhouse seeds
space: 4x4x6 secret jardin dr120II
lights:400w hps+50w 6500k cfl 20/4~19/5 hole life cycle
grow system/medium DWC 4gallon nute space, rockwool/clay
nutrients:AN ph perfect 3part, additives: cellmax enzymes, AN big bud AN overdrive
ok so i started this grow about two months ago 29th of september, i soaked the seed about 6 hours and put it in ph balanced slightly moist 2¨ rockwool cube and to large closed plastic container it germinated extremely fast
when i peeked it next time 2-3 days later the root was out and leaves were open i immidietly placed it in smaller dwc bucket with about 1,5gallons of ph balanced water not letting the surface touch it
after about week the roots were big enough so the plant started really growing at this point i started giving approx. 1/9 nute feed. and gradualy rise it
at the time i really started to study about growing, hours and hours of books and articles everyday so i would get best possible medicine i can and it has totally changed my mind about growing and how many ways it can be done, basicly there is the lazy way and scientific way and anything between either way you get bud but is it ok,good or excellent is up to your knowledge about the life of plants
6 days later it had 1/7~ of feed and i had my first problems with algae due being newb at the point i had light leaks and too high water temperature, started keeping the room cooler, fixed leaks and treated with 2-3ml/litre h2o2
belive it or not 6-7days later or 22days from seed or 20 after sprouting i had first flowers and 5 nodes the dwc is really fast, i also put it on the bigger container two days after it started flowering at this point i gave her 1/2 feed prob too much
and i also gave full dose of base nutes and gave 1/3 big bud this was definetly too much at this stage the plant was just too small, later i have found out it doesnt need full dose at any point of life also saves nutes maybe 3/4 max+additives even that might be too much for bb auto. so another newb mistake but we learn as we do
9days flowering later total 31 days from seed changed the h2o2 treatment to enzyme/vitamin product and i had also started bending the fan leaves and branches to get more colas i had 8 nodes at this point and the growth was really fast
and dont mind the bagseed experiment/practice pots you see on the backround i never intended to flower them, they actually helped me learn alot about these plants, i let them suffer deficiencys, droughts, and overwatering to see and feel the plants at those stages and than fix it ive learned alot this way also, havent lost any yet;P i did kill the two bigger on purpuse at one point becouse i even dont know the mom and pop and it started to get crowdy but the ones on small pots i know
8 days later total 39 from seed day 18 flowering, i bended the main stem couple days ago shes still quite bendy, the canopy is really even now its alot bushier and bigger overall, extremely fast growing strain my friends havent seen anything like it
14days later approx. total 52 from seed 32 flowering i fed the plant too much hole life cycle basicly minor burns here and there nothing serious, small ph problems becouse i dont own meter just the color liquid gotta get the ec and ph meters at some point
ill continue the journal later, feel free to ask anything and give tips for me
if someone has experience about bb auto i would like to know how long did it take to flower for you its def not 6weeks like they say that would mean its almost ready i belive its more like 8 week flower. that would mean 11weeks total from seed
