Indoor Northern lights&Big Bud/Sucker punch autos

[virginia gent]

Planted three NL&BB almost 4 weeks ago, two came up within four days the third showed almost 2 weeks latter. After I planted a Auto Seeds sucker punch (center plant). The fourth plant, another sucker punch is in my other tent in a different soil mix (last two pics). Tent with three plants is 2X4X7 with two bs240uv leds and a mars 100X3 for help with blooming, two 6in clip-on fans, 6in duct booster fan with carbon filter and plants are in 3gal airpopts. Lights are at 20/4 schedule and I am using nutes. The other tent is 3X3X6 with one reflector 96 and a 6in clip-on fan, a 6in duct booster fan with carbon filter and one 3gal air pot. Siol mix in the taller tent is 4 parts pro-mix hp, 1 part black gold potting soil, 1/2 cup lime,1/2 cup perlite. Soil mix in mars tent is 5 parts black gold potting soil, 1 part pro-mix hp, 1/2 cup perlite, 1/2 cup lime. I am using the feeding schedule at about half recommended rate, starting at about day 10-14 minus flower kiss, boomerang, open sesame. The WOS northern lights and big buds (left and right) are 10in and 11in and about 24 days old, the Auto Seeds sucker punch (center) is 22in and about 21 days. The other sucker punch (last pics) is about 17 days old and 11 inches.

Day 32 and the NL&BB's have some heat stress, I think, but growth and color are ok. The sucker punch is a giant, 39 inches, and is showing good bud development. The NL&BB are 17 and 18 inches but that is about what I expected. Vertical growth should stop in a few days and some resin should start showing. I have started adding a 1/16 tsp of beastie bloom and switched to tiger bloom from grow big.

Day 37 and all plants have had a gallon of 10ml/gal sledgehammer and will start bloom nutes at next watering. Plants are (left to right) 21 inches NL&BB, 42.5 inch sucker punch and a 24 inch NL&BB. All have stopped or slowed their vertical growth and the sucker punch is getting some good resin production. I think the marks on older leaves of the SP are from large ph swings and some heat issues (last pic). Not the plants fault, mine. Stoned again. I should have posted from the beginning but I have had bad luck with my last batch of seeds and I wanted to make sure they would make it. I think I will order from True North Seeds.

Day 44 all the girls have stopped vertical growth, 24in, 43in, 30in (left to right) and have resin showing to the eye. The NL&BB are forming some nice bud sites and look good, so far. The sucker punch has lost a lot of leaves and will yield less than hoped. What I thought was heat was all ph, as usual. Since only one plant was effected the reason must be me, oh well. There is still about 20 days to get ready for harvest, we will see.

Day 53 and I know how I got the ph screwed-up, bad probe on my hanna checker meter. I should have seen it sooner, oh well. I will use drops for the rest of the grow. The plants are still alive and putting weight on the buds, resin production could be better. The sucker punch suffered the most and will be done in about 10 days. The NL&BB will go a week or two longer.

Day 60 and I have harvested the sucker punch. The pistols had stopped some time ago and the trics were about half clear and half milky. My ph screw-up did not help. There are five paper bags with some nice buds but the buds are not as heavy as they look but are very juicy. Great smell. The NL&BB that came up two weeks after the sucker punch may give a few grams yet. The last two plants will get chopped next week about this time.

The bud from the sucker punch has been in bags for four days and went into jars this morning. Three of the jars have just over 30gr each and the other has 25gr, so 115gr in jars. I expect to lose 10%+- during cure so lets say 100 grams dry. I harvested the NL&BB on the left yesterday, day 63, and I think yield will be about 50 grams dry. The plant on the right still has some pistol activity so a few more days I guess, the plant in the center is at about day 50.
