New Grower Alijay's Auto Grow

[Mary Djayne]

If you feel like her feet are a little wet, they probably are. Over watering is an easy way to stunt little girls. Dry her out a little and see how she does.

I would not feed again on Monday unless they are dry.

I always start bloom in the first week of flower and continue until the end. Top max I usually use mid flower to the end. I have never flushed using biobizz.

Remember, they are sisters and not twins! You cannot treat them 100% the same, and expect them to react the same, unless they are clones!

Makes sense, This are Bubble Gum Fast Seed they ready in 50 to 55 days, this time frame can change right?

You correct I should treat them like individuals. I will let them dry out a bit and see how they react. And on the next watering maybe feed them when they dry out as you said

When usually I can know that the flowring stage has begun? (I'm quite a newbie sorry)
Also, I'm curious, have you ever cloned Autos? I would like to Clone A it seems to grow very well in my environment.

I'd use the date as an estimate. Aim for that date but be prepared to add a couple weeks.

Look for the "hairs". These should appear in the next week or two. You can start the bloom then. Maybe check the forum so you can see if anyone else has grown this strain. That should give you more of an indication of the timescale.

I have not cloned an auto before and would not. Clones are the same age of the mother plant. So if you took a clone from an auto, it would probably root, but would have the same age and life cycle of the mother plant. To my knowledge autos don't reveg so are a one hit wonder!

Hi!
I would like some advice.

@Mary Djayne I did not feed them since the start of this post.
They look great and growing fast.

Still don't know if I should feed them. This week I let them dry a bit since it was their first feed last week. they have now 27 days.

Should I try to LST and also feed them again?

Bubble A look great, and Bubble B has a little yellow tip. I feed both the same but seems Bubble A is a bit smaller I need to maybe give less nutrients. Again only using Biobizz ( part fro first feed I gave them a bit of Bacto Hemp t strengthen the roots.


What steps should. give now? I very the big leafs also covering lot of new stems under them. Any tips how to go from here? my first grow.

28 Days ( Bubble A right/-Bubble B Left)

for the lst and big leafs.
pony tail technique would be perfect now.

and as far as watering goes.
let pot dry out. pick it up. remember the feel of the empty. water, pick up pot to feel weight of saturated.
then try to keep the weight of the pot right around the middle of the too.

other than that they dont look bad.
no leaf curl or droop that i can see. so not grossly over watered at all.

@Master_gRoshi Thank you for your reply.

Can you give me a link for how to to money tail LST?
I'm new to this. Afraid to ruin my first grow.

I will feed them today. Any recommend dosage?
I've been short in water and nutrients since seed they on have been feed with nutrients once.
Look forward for more tips. Thank you

headed out for work. ill do some digging on break to find some pics.
and if using coco. go ahead and water until you see a little bit of run off.
assuming since its been 6 days the pots are dry dry.
so pick em up. get a good feel.
water to run off.
get a good feel. and then try to keep them right in the middle on weight.

giving the size they should have established a good root system so for them to eat whats in the pot in a day or two is likely.

Yes this is key as I was saying in beginning also water to run off if in coco they are big enough for it

Thanks guys. Actually them growing in Allmix Biobizz soil.
I will feed them tomorrow. Just left the water sitting for 24h and feeding tomorrow.

Regarding LST I still did nothing I'm still unsure which way to go.
