Dutch Passion 3x AutoUltimate in Plagron growmix

[Ayyylmao]

Today I started geminating the 3 seeds I have, and since I'm a first time grower I hope someone can help me during this grow.

I will be growing the three of them in 18L pots, starting inside and later on (when the outside temperature increases) I will grow them outdoors.

Hi @Ayyylmao , AU is a great strain, and she responds really well to training. Top at the 5th node, and a week later tie her branches down (thanks @pop22) to get a nice wide bush, or just bend/pull her main stem over for a week or so to allow the side branches to push on up and then tie them down too. She can go on for quite a while, easily over 100 days if you train her, I believe that any kind of training, topping, bending the stem, etc. delays the start of flowering while the plant sorts itself out, and any delay to flowering, means more time in veg to grow the root system, and the plant overall.

I've had a lot of good feedback on the final product as well, everyone has loved it so far! Not the densest nugs, but a decent amount of crystals and good smoke. Good luck mate!

..... Those Ultimates needs a firm, ruthless and merciless hand...... See the link to my lost battle with the Ultimates in my signature.... Lol

Here's another 2 I'm currently growing, it's day 35, XL Autopots, Mapito, they drink 3-4 liters/day and is being supercropped, defoliated, tied and bent to within a whisper of their lives..... Both has been supercropped in least 25-30 places already, in a circular pattern to open them up and I also use little hanging clip weights to weigh the branches down until they've stiffened up in the planned/hoped position ...... Along with the usual bevy of ropes, wires and chains that's awaiting deployment..... Lol

This is what they look like after a session every 3-4 days, before morphing back to the above pics within a couple of days at the most

They look great @Corgy ! Especially for day 35!

Now after about 42 hours, all 3 of them are starting to show their root

Yesterday I planted my seeds in the soil, and today one has already emerged from it, but is has kind of a weird bend in it, can anyone tell if something is wrong with little plant?

Edit: the shell was obstructing the growth of the plant

 

[Ayyylmao]

All 3 of them have popped out of the soil!

good luck.
