How does my 9 day old girl look?

Just looked at her during lights out for the first time. Is it normal for her to look kinda droopy during lights out?

Perfectly normal my girl starts to sag about an hour before lights out, I got worried to when I first noticed it. I was rushing trying to find out what was wrong before the lights went out but found it was part of the "sleep" cycle. if you have a green light and check her a little before lights on she will have already started to perk for the light.

That would freak me out too!

Any update on yours? Pics?

I should be able to post some pics tonight. I came across a problem that you will need to be aware of. My aerogarden is at full extension now. All 24 inches, and my plant is only 1 inch from the lights. I'm heading out to Lowes to get a piece of PVC to make the light taller. To install the PVC I'll have to unwrap all my insulation so it would be the perfect time to take her picture. You might want to get yours set up for this. It would be easier to do if she was still small.

Here are the pics. I got a 2 foot piece of 1 1/2" and a piece of 2" PVC with a rubber adapter between the two sizes. It's perfect. Its adjustable from about a 30: light height to about 48 inches. I cab grow a 4 foot plant in this aerogarden now! I do have to cut the 2" piece. The light is a couple inches too high right now. But I figure she wants the 2700k cfl's more than the aerogarden light right now.

Notice the brown on the 4th picture. She kinda layed up in the light for a little while I think.

After reading a couple of threads, Could this be some kind of nute lock?

Since I noticed this my PH has been rising and my PPM has been stable.

Very nice Markl! I see that green house shelf is working great! Were those AK-47 Lowryder seeds? or just regular Autos? I ask because mine are lowryder, so they generally only grow to 18" tall. So I may not need the extension. Great use of PVC though! I will be using PVC to set up my other lights when the time comes to use them. With mine being just seedlings the AG lights are good enough, I think

This is what I planted:

Day 42 pictures when I unwrapped her to clean & refill the tank.

How does she look?

looking good you should have a nice fat main cola up top, she looks really nice.

Wow! Looking great! Bet she stinks!

She smells awesome! Not overly strong, but when I'm out of the house for an hour or two it's the first thing you smell when you walk in the door. My wife is after me to set up some of those odor control Ona Blocks. I think it smells good!

I've gotten mixed results when searching for how long these auto ak-47's go before harvest. Seems like its anywhere from 56 days to 90 days. Based on what you see in these 42 day pictures, anybody got a guess when she will be done?

she has a while to go, when her fan leaves start to yellow give her a week more on the nutes and then you should be ready to start your two week ph'd water flush. that should be around day 65-75.

Thanks Newbt. I kinda figured it was more in that range than the 90. To quote Tom Petty, "The Waiting is the Hardest Part".

no problem, don't get me wrong though it may take up to 90 . I've seen some grow journals that went past 100 days. the thing is to watch your plant and she'll show you, when those fan leaves start turning is the indicator. I got that info from a good autoflower resource Google afn and you'll find it. I think my girl is going to be on that long day count. I may steal a little from her lol if she's not ready by 4/20 haha.

I backed off my nute mixture a little bit because I saw a little possible nute burn. Now I see something that looks allot like the cal-mag deficiency I had earlier in the grow. I've been using 1 Tsp CaMG+ per gallon of distilled water based nute solution. Is that enough? Would it hurt to use more?

have you switched to flowering nutes yet? where are the spots located lower leaves or top? how many leaves are being affected?

Yes, I've been on flowering nutes for almost 3 weeks. There around around 3 leaves near the top, larger ones. And just 2 down near the bottom. She still looks really good overall. I'm just being overly cautious since I'm this close. She is flowering everywhere!
