Hey guys
This will be my first proper grow journal so please be kind and I will try to post as much info as possible and update as often as I can.
I'm a fairly new grower and still learning and in the spirit of that I've decided to try a little experiment into low Maintenance greenhouse growing. For this experiment I will be growing one "Quick one" from royal queen seeds. The plant has been started in the greenhouse from seed and Germinated in 4 days, we are now 4 days old since popping her head and growth has been good. Seeing her get a little bigger each day.
Originally I did not ph the water when soaking the soil which did not seem to affect germination but I was soon worrying so gave a very mini "flush" with a ph 6.3 water and 2ml rhizotonic per litre. Well thankfully all seems good, the young girl is growing at a nice pace.
Now as I said this is going to be a "low maintenance" kind of grow. I don't exactly have too much control over environmentals, such as temperature or humidity but I can open the door on my greenhouse on the occasional overly sunny day I get! All I plan to do is keep her Fed and watered using the same nutes I use Indoors but other than that I plan to let mother nature do her thing and find out just how adaptable an autoflower can be.
Daytime temperatures in the greenhouse vary from anything between 15 degrees Celsius and 35+ degrees Celsius ( on a hot day ). So I want to know will the plant adapt to these varied and somewhat extreme changes and conditions and still produce a credible amount of bud at the end. I figure if she's born in to it she will adapt to her environment and find a way to live and produce flowers, of course I may be way off but time will tell.
If a successful experiment then hooray!!! I have an extra way to grow bud at almost no cost and little maintenance! If unsuccessful then hopefully I will have at least spread a little knowledge.
Feeds I use are, Canna vega, rhizotonic, pk13/14, unnamed bloom nute, and mollases.
I have no idea what to expect from this grow and look forward to finding out and sharing the experience with the AFN family. And if anyone has any similar kind of experience or knowledge to what I'm doing I would love to hear from you.
Some pics of the girl and her home.
Thanks guys stay lit
