I couldn't find my old post on here so I started a new one to try to get any help advice comments
Growing 2 autos diesel ryder and auto ak. Mixed own organic soil using plant tone espoma blood and bone meal cow manure, lime perlite, soil and compost, grown in 5 gallon buckets from seed. Under 150 hps for first 4 weeks and have begun putting in direct sunlight for 5 hrs say then back into closet getting 3-5 hours dark daily. Been watering with alaskan fish 5-1-1 since seed for first 3 weeks and switched to ff tiger and big bloom. Had second dose of nutes yesterday. Have reddit times about the autos but decided to post to get everybody's opinion
I noticed a large number of side branches is this normal noticed a lot of the autos seem to just make a giant cola both of mine have 12-15 side branches
At first plants we're compact in size but since I've been subbing the direct sunlight the branches releasing the taking of stretching it's a good thing or bad thing
I have been doing the Fox Farm nutrients at full strength as well as previously using the Alaskan fish in a pretty high rate plants in the love the fertilizers with no sign of burn at all Fox Farm says to use every other watering plants are taking about a gallon every other day should I fertilize every other day or every other watering?advice from the long time growers here
update 18 days later
so here are updated pics, who know a journal really takes a lot and I have lacked but the grow is becoming routine and work was slow so I figured I would throw this out there, plus I would like some help establishing what plant is what,....diesel ryder or auto ak bc the labels fell off long ago. so sprout jan 21 so theyre at day 48 or so, no real hickups, did add a couple t12 shop lights standing up next to them at night, every couple days i will let them get some dark, but mainly 24 hours light and sun. also had to relocate to storage shed from tent inside due to company, watering 1 gallon every other day, every other watering gets nutes and molasses. this plant has really sugared and nugged up nicely, bout what I would expect from my 150, pistils started to brown 5% maybe, no loupe but will eventually get one to check out trichs trying to sub sunlight in the day did hack off most of fan leaves and bottom leave over course of last 2 weeks, (hence slow work weeks) so any comments or questions or if you think you can tell the difference between this plant and the next one def let me know as I am curious. now second plant the one on the right had to be tied down twice as she was reaching for the stars, even keeping the light over here a mere inches still topped out every morning, she is just now starting to have a few sugars on the leaves, still loose buds but still got some time overall she is a much taller plant, all pistils still white, gets same nutes and water. can we tell diesel ryder from auto ak?
