aaand just when i thought id have a nice trouble free plant she goes from lush to showing defs over night.

the cannabis plant can be maddening sometimes.

on one hand she looks lush overall. but untreated this issue is sure to cause big problems.

im guessing its either a micro nute or p or k thats in short supply.
so i gave her some bloom food and some cal/mag with other micros yesderday. doesnt seem to have got worse.

anyone know what it is.. cal and iron maybe?

ok glad to say ,cal mag is all she needed. should have started giving it to her as a preventative measure at about day 30.

but shes looking good and even the few leafs that looked bad look like theyve recovered a good bit.

i lollipopped her , get some airflow under that thick canopy to reduce mold risk later, there was also alot of spindly stems .so shes looking great today.

one thing, im just getting super paranoid, as ive heard horror stories of autoflowers not autoflowering and people wasting months of time essentially vegging photos that were meant to be autos... at now day 40 i still dont have bud sites, lots of white hairs ,but any sexually mature plant thats vegging will have these. ... so im sticking her on 12/12 .Screenshot_20191108-091459_Gallery.jpgScreenshot_20191108-091324_Gallery.jpgScreenshot_20191108-091535_Gallery.jpgScreenshot_20191108-091540_Gallery.jpg

I warned you she would get hungry, and she's going to get big from that transplant, my transplants are all extended / suspended in veg. She looks perfect, keep it up and maybe do some Google searches to see if others have had to 12 / 12 this strain. I'm hopeful she will get to it on her own.

yeah you were right, she definitly likes some extra cal mag for sure.

today i went to the grow store and bought some nutes. i got some plagron terra bloom for a try. a dutch brand.

right now ive got her downstairs for a while, as im stoned and want to admire her beauty.

shes a real stinker.

The issue with 12 / 12 is that, if your plant is auto, it will stretch durring the dark cycle and not flower any faster, so if you are running out of room it can really screw you to try and force it.

day 48..going on 7 weeks

Fast buds? what a bloody joke that is.

not happy with how slow this has been. i should be looking at an auto harvest in 3 weeks. instead looks like i have 6 to 8..
could have grown a photo faster.

maybe to stick outside in spring and again in summer but for indoor purposes absolutley pointless.

nice little plant dont get me wrong but autos need to be done in 10 weeks or there is no point at all

its the smelliest plant ive ever had stinks my entire house out

You're kinda responsible for this mess my dude, you cant transplant and expect the plant not to fill out more and take longer. If you want to finish on time you have to start in your final pot.

considering i transplanted before it showed sex i cant see why that would cause a 1 month increased flower time. i cant find any literature which supports that. 1 week transplant shock..maybe.

day 50.. definitly kicking into flowering gear.

maybe itll finish in 4 weeks and ill end up eating my words.

all moaning aside, she is a beauty of a plant.ive never seen such a brilliant structure, so many branches.. little bit if cal mag here and there. 2 mls per feed of the plagron terra bloom, but ive just upped that to 3 mls.

and shes on 12 12. for anyone wondering what happens if you or can you grow an auto on 12 12.. keep watching and we will all find out.

lot of single cola dominant phenos with sweet version i see. looks like plenty of nice chunky buds though.

shes under a 300 watt led
for half of the day she also gets 250 watt hps from the side.
