    Candy Kush auto day 23 red stem indicate anything?
  • Did some water/nutes and snapped a couple pictures. Sure like the structure of this plant and node spacing.:joy: A shame only 1 out of 3 seeds were viable. First and last purchase from Growers Choice for me. Have a Critical Purple from them I'll try outdoors in a couple months. Genetics/breeding mean everything with autos I am learning. :headbang:

    Does the red stem indicate anything?

    Candy Kush auto day 27.9 & Mega Crop feeding question
  • Cruising along in veg. Upped the nutes to 2g MC, 1g Cal/Mag Pro, .6g Sweet Candy/gallon. LST on the main stem. Light meter reads 32k at canopy level. About 20 inches from lights to canopy.

    My question on nutes in Pro Mix HP: Do you add nutes with every watering, or some other water/feed schedule?

    Candy Kush auto day 32 LST stretching out auto flower boogie
  • Single girl on the floor doing her auto flower boogie:dancer:

    CK started stretching about 48 hours ago so I did some LST to open her up. Last two feedings 6.5PH H2O only, about 4 cups each time. Back with Greenleaf Nutrients @ 50% next feeding. Light meter reading 30k at the canopy.Temperatures running around 79 to 84F with 60-65%RH. Trying to keep the VPD between .9 and 1.2 right now.

    It was around this time on my first grow that things started going downhill.:wall: Hopefully this single girl will show us how good she boogies in the upcoming weeks. .:woohoo1:

    Here's a picture of her after LST - looking through the tent viewing window:joy: Thoughts, comments, always welcome. Thanks for dropping by:d5:

    Candy Kush Day 35 Auto Flower Boogie
  • Day 35 is when I started seeing problems :nono: with my first grow. None here that I can see:vibe:. Picture taken just before lights out so she's relaxing a bit.

    Upped the nutes today to 2g MC, 1g Cal/Mag pro, .3g Sweet Candy and .3g Bud Explosion. 350ppm total nutes. Well water @6.5ph, watering about 3 to 4 cups every 2 days. Light meter at canopy in the 30 to 35k range. Doing my best to keep the VPD between .9 and 1.2 right now.

    A few months ago, I'd never heard of VPD. I like it. VPD with calculator is what I am using. Found this on some post, and I can't recall who shared it, but thanks again.:thanks: Actually, last October I had no clue about most of these things :frowny: Way different than outdoors :smokeit:

    I really like the structure of this girl. LST'd and some leaf tucking to jazz her up. :kiss:

    Thanks for checking out my little auto flower boogie, an stay safe n sane:thumbsup:, or something like that:joy:

    Candy Kush auto boogie day 42
  • First, hope everyone good.:d5: Going into week 7 now of this here auto boogie.:toke: Thirsty girl these days, watering with well water 6.6ph, 4 to 6 cups every 36 to 48 hours as needed. MC @ 3g, SC @ .5g, Cal/Mag @ 1g, BE @ .5g / all at a gallon this last week. The next mix of nutes, MC will go up to 4g and the rest will stay the same.

    Just a bit of light defoliation of a few bud sites that were not seeing much light. Mainly leaf tucking and LST. Doing my best in keeping the VPD between 1 and 1.2, for at least another week. For indoor growing, I think I'm hooked on VPD. :jump:

    Shout out to @Waira @Dabber @420Forever :yay:
    Take care an don't forget ta boogie:vibe:

    Candy Kush auto boogie day 49
  • Lost some lower leaves this week. I think not enough N early on as I started out low and presently feeding about 66% of recommended amount. Got some brown tips going on mid to upper leaves that is slowing going out to the edge of a few leaves. Really no idea what is causing that to happen.

    Been feeding @ 4gMC, 1gCal/Mag, .75g SC, and .75g BE per gallon. Water PH'd at 6.5 this last time. I think after one more feeding, the Cal/Mag gets dropped. Keeping the VPD 1.10 to 1.3 most of the time.

    I know the plant could be doing better than it is if I knew what I was doing - or maybe not eh. She's still got the boogie happening.

    So here's a few pictures for the week. I take the pictures with the cobs on.

    Hope your hanging in there in a good way right now. My heart goes out to Italy and Spain, and to those that live in the states right now.

    Thanks for stopping by.
