badanga · Jul 31, 2014

Just been keeping up on my microgrow of Blue Mystic Auto and was wondering if you fellas could give some positive feedback.

Do the leaves look a little droopy just watered today. I've been keeping watering every 2-4 days depending on how the soil feels a inch or two deep.

Also looks a little clusterfucked like normal idk why that is... I sat further away from lights to try and get some stretch but I dont want it too big and to grow into the lights.

(total wattage= 92watts)
4 GE 100w replacement (26w actual) 2700k 1650 lumens soft white fluroescent bulbs for FLOWER
Water: Deer Park Spring Water (ph of around 6-7 can't remember right now)

Miracle grow? Subbed.

A little nitrogen heavy, but has a lot of good stuff in there. More complete than a lot of mj specific feed. No mag, though...

i am getting ready to plant a few of these, I have done other autos from nirvana, (bubblicious) and these plants just stay short and squaty, its the way they are bred to grow....you wont have any luck trying to stretch them....you don't need to stretch em either, they do a great job staying nice and compact. I always top mine, even tho they say not to top an auto, I do, then I let them grow for quite awhile, until you got yr top, with two tops, reaching up, then tie them down to screws you put in yr pot....really simple, you can do that with or with out topping it, that is just how I do...

GreenThumbsMcgee · Aug 1, 2014

heres a quick pic of how I do my pots, I have the screws just put in and ready for whatever tie down I may need, to lst em, this is the best way for me, just using screws and twist ties....

just wait until yr plant gets taller, before you actually tie down....again, that's how I do.

oh damn haven't been on here for a few days people have been ignoring my posts lol... i know I'm definitely a noob

I'll update with some pics tonight I transplanted about 2 weeks ago fine and its been growing like crazy ever since

One thing is I been noticing the tip of my lowest leaves have a dried up spot like its burnt from something and the same leaf has purple blotches really weird at first I couldn't identify the color now for sure I can tell its purple I'll post some pics tonight. Been trying to read up on it and found people saying it might be over nutes or under nutes but I'm due for nutes today or tomorrow and the problems are just now occurring so I'm shooting for the under nutes. Any input please??

Ahhhh I just looked up the problem I just posted and found somebody said something about mag deficiency... does the burning tips and purple blotches sound like that?

Shes stretching so far everyday more and more, thanks for the idea I like that it'd be easy for me to incorporate something similar. Only getting around the third week and when I open the box its smellin kinda stinky.. thought this was a low odor strain haha It's cool though I like it

GreenThumbsMcgee · Aug 5, 2014

its stinky? awesome...I just got finished with bubblicious, and I was unimpressed, I am really hoping to like these better. I got a power kush going right now, its a afgani x skunk #1, and its coming along sooo nicely. I think I may be switching out from autos, I liked them as a noob, but I am seeing the potency, and flavor is in the photoperiods, at least in my experience...I am hoping these blue mystics help sway my opinion.

Youre going to get different opinions on using miracle grow products. My advice is to watch your plants carefully with it. Next grow Id go with something different. Also plants look a lil droopy maybe over watering. I also grew a nirvana auto n.l. It was only my second grow. Dude my plants looked terrible by the end of the grow cause i made so many mistakes . But i kept at it and wound up pulling close to an oz off it. Pretty good bud too. I also grew Dinafem white widow and auto wappa by paradise. It taught me so much. So again stay persistent and you will be rewarded.

I thought it looked droopy but it wasnt stretching at the time. I definitely wasn't over watering because I was waiting like 2-4 days each time depending on moisture of the soil. I just got out of jail yesterday though so definitely can't smoke my yield just gonna continue as a hobby and Idk is there any length too long to cure weed? I was planning to cure it up to years because I'm in shit up to my neck at the moment. And also no drug related offenses just new charges equaling to a new probation violation ahhh stressed thinking bout it.

Anyways heres an update I came back yesterday to notice my "purple spots" I was talking bout in earlier post turned to rusty color and the leaf turned yellow I ferterlized sunday and I'm thinking its a nute burn rather then a deficiency? What does anybody else think or if it is a deficiency do you think its a magnesium deficiency or what? Shes so small still which is definitely aggrevating, switched my lights cus I can see pistols from preflowering in first picture.

Yea I had a similar problem with my Dinafem white widow auto. One of the great people told me (with a link) that it was a cal deficiency. But please don't just take my word for it. One of the more experienced growers can give you a better interpretation of your problem. Good Luck...

Thanks, I appreciate a response anyhow I'm not sure if its gonna be too serious but I know that if its ph it would lockout nutrients and maybe stunt growth so thats kinda what im worried bout

All my autos (3 strains so far) have started off as this "clusterfuck" as you put it. Even after stretching quite a bit they've got a real condensed feel to em. Nodes are tight as a virgin.

Here's what they looked like on day 20ish from sprout:

And here's one on day 35 from sprout:

One of my bottom leaves did something similar to the picture you posted yesterday...the rest of the growth has been fine since then. Hopefully yours is a similar situation.

It looks like you might be watering too frequently, and with those time release nutes in the miracle grow soil too much is being released which could be causing you a deficiency due to lockout (from an overabundance of nute uptake). I'm definitely no pro but tht's my 2cents. Maybe let them dry out a little more before watering and def don't pour any more nutes into the soil. If someone more experienced than myself can help you pinpoint your deficiency you can prob correct it quickly with a foliar feed, and then work out a long term solution (which hopefully involves a diff soil, or more appropriately watering the mg soil). pH could be playing a role too. When I had one of my leafs do something similar to what yours looks like was before my pH meter came in and I was watering with very alkaline water (like 7.7ish!). Started adjusting to 6.5 and everything looks a lottt better.

I've followed your grows before so thanks for input. Everybody keeps thinking its over watering, but honestly I've been waiting around 3-4 days to water lately. Either way I'm low on money so I doubt I'm going to put money into finding a fix for it the other plant I have is several weeks younger, but hasn't recieved nutes and has been growing bigger and healthier?
