New Grower Day in the Life of a Stunted Auto

[DDubs]

Just a heads up that sometime the Trichs on an Auto don't amber - you could be waiting forever, and the THC will degrade with light over time!



Edit: But excellent results from what started as a runt!! You should be well pleased!

I am for sure! This is my second grow and the first one really suffered under my noob hands but I learned and moved forward. Learned some new lessons this time around too so I cant wait to carry everything over to my next grow. I haven't really seen what the full Trich development looks like so I'm still learning the ropes.

Sweet! You're rocking it!

Here's a handy hint - when the buds stop pushing out white hairs, and the hairs have started to shrink and turn orangey brown - she's pretty much (mostly always) ready to harvest.

Lovely plant for your 2nd grow there bud, still on my first, but you obviously learnt from your first grow, can’t ask for more than that . Nice work

Thanks! There are still things that can go wrong so I'm not smoking yet but I'm really excited with the progress. I cant wait to sample.

Day #101

CHOP CHOP
I sent her into 48hrs of darkness before taking the scissors to her last night. I did continue feeding her all the way up to chop as well. I honestly dont know how you guys with multiple plants can stand to trim everything. Took me around 3 hours to trim my one stunted baby and I was hurt'n.

I lined 2 paper bags with "golfball" sized buds, i just couldn't being myself to break the colas down that far. I also hung one set of branches inside the tent as well to see if I can notice a difference between the cure methods. I know I shouldnt just yet but I peeked on the bags today and all looks good. Now I just have to trust in the process, let them dry and check them again in a couple days. I'll check back in with totals as soon as she is ready.

Thanks everyone for following along. I plan to start one more of the same seed batch to test the lessons I learned from this grow.

Light Schedule:
48 hours of darkness

Watering:
Watered the morning before turning out the lights.

Nutrients:
Maxibloom (5-15-15) 1/8 teaspoon per 32oz.

Healthy roots are the foundation to a quality plant. I wish I had a pic of my first root ball but I can say that this was a serious improvement.

For sure! As long as the other factors are under control, these girls will do what they are ment to do no matter how bad we punish them. I dont want to rush the drying process but I cant wait to pop a new bean in a couple of days. This next one will be third times the charm and its going to bring a whole new batch of challenges to learn from.

I dumped all 4 of my 3 gallon pots upside after chopping and did not even see roots going around the pots was just dirt, after yanking them out of the soil they were tiny roots lol i did not even take pics just dumped them in my compost bin
