New Grower First Time Auto Growing Need Help!

[Rebel]

Thanks buddy! You guys keep praising me and I'll really start to think I'm any good!

Feel like posting a long rant so please indulge me....

Part of the reason I used this thread and not start a new thread is, I wanted to keep all my ignorant posts that might sound stupid to some. If any newb chance upon this thread, he or she will know its ok to be stupid sometimes. No one starts out being an expert anyways.

I panicked more than other newbs mainly cos I have not grown a single thing in my life. Not even seen a live cannabis plant. When i first posted, i had no idea what NPK was? I thought all questions had a definitive answer to it and almost became demanding when seeking answers. Then I realized i gotta figure a lot out myself. @Maria Sanchez was just a dear and patiently replied to all my questions. @hecno basically taught me to think for myself and question every action i take. @islandgrower is like a big bro looking after my grow. @912GreenSkell @Dabber @Dubious143 and many others (U guys got to have simpler nicks) have always been generous with words of encouragements!

@Kya Knight pls accept my apologies. Your tip to use worm cast has helped tremendously! Hope to see you around soon!

From the hopeless newb in earlier pages, I have since:

Bought and used cheap China Cobs

Used bottled base nutes

Mixed my own dry PK boost fert

Made aerated compost tea

Employed almost all training methods- LST, Topping, Fimming, supercropping, lollipoping, bud pinching, defoliation. Only thing missing is SCROG but i like moving them too much!

One thing that is consistent so far is my inclination towards trying as much as i reasonably can but not using anything top of the line. This was aimed as experiencing as much as possible while keeping a modest budget. This was the reason i got China cobs instead of branded and highly rated lights. Also why i controlled the urge to buy Greenleaf Nutrients product line. And many other things too. After reading posts by @pop22 @912GreenSkell @NateNobody @Waira @Rebel @Savage Garden and many others, I felt like I could make it work. If i started with all top of the line stuff, I would never know how stuff compares. Hope it makes sense. Basically, I wanted to see how far i can go with basic stuff and then see how much better equipments/nutes/additives etc can help improve results?

So here i am now. Things progressing alright. Very worried about 1 plant in particular. PE2 started smaller than PE1 but is now huge. Due to her size, she is affected the most by the high humidity. Hope to see more improvements from her soon

A big wet thank you to everyone who has dropped by so far! You guys have been the best!

Never annoying bro. What I see is passion for growing. You have been bitten by the growbug . Only thing to do now to appease the growgoddess is plant more beans lol
I have enough to last me a while . Mostly photo regular. And a few autos. Have a sweet seeds mixed 10 pack

I think i may have too many. At least 2 dozen seeds all autos. Gonna take me ages if they all pop.

At the moment, gonna keep the space as it is. Wanna get my growing dialed in before even thinking about expanding. I'm pretty much winging it at the moment.

Don't plan to do more than 4 plants next round. Wanna see what I can do with less space restrictions. I'm hopeful that 4 plants will at least lower humidity a little in the grow area.

I feel that i can grow the AAH1 much larger than she already is, if i could spread her wider. But as it is, she is already big! I read grow journals on this strain and the buds don't seem to get big. Its a sativa heavy strain. To my surprise, they are fattening up. None like the pics i see online.

Some pics on day 57 for my big bro and u alls!

For sure. Anything in my power to pay it forward or just simply giving opinions/ suggestions, will be an honor.

Don't you worry mate! I've had very good role models thus far. Go find a mirror and u'll see one of them!
