Dutch Passion Terra Firma's DP AutoBlackberry Kush grow (Stacked Airpots, HS1 LED, T5)

Fingers crossed your ladybugs sort it out for you, just in time by the look of it.

The aphids tend to fill up one leaf at a time. Removing the leaf slows them down considerably, but I'm going to spray everything with neem oil after I harvest the BBK plants. Now it's up to the ladybug larvae.

Day 68 update.

The BBK look rather tasty! How long do you think they have left?

Thanks Derek
I'm not quite sure as this is only my 2nd indoor autoflower grow. The largest plant closely resembles TaNg's pheno that was harvested at 82 days, so I'm aiming for 85 days. The smaller plant is a bit quicker, maybe by a week. I'm still trying to decide when to start giving them water only.

I do hope they fatten up more

Here's some close-up shots of the largest BBK @ 69 days.

Hi guys, I thought I'd post an update of the Think Different, as I've trimmed her ladybits. Her bush has been thinned out considerably I've also noted that some of her leaves that were quite close to one of the led's have developed calcium/magnesium deficiencies, whilst the rest of the plants shows no sign of it... quite odd. She's well into flowering now and it doesn't Seeem to bother her at all.

Hi fellow gardeners, i've decided to start the flush on both of my BBK @day 73. I checked the trichromes on both plants and they were still all clear... I had expected them be nearing completion. I don't find the buds to be very thick either. Do plants fatten up during
the flushing phase? I tried taking a picture with my phone through my 40x-100x magnifyer.

It looks like she has a good amount on her, could do with swelling a touch though, maybe they just want a bit more time?

There's lots of buds, but they just haven't swollen up like my Auto Ultimates did. I also haven't seen the production of any new pistils for at least 2-3 weeks either. My leaves aren't much help either, as they've been scarred by thrips and some overfeeding issues, which caused them to change colour. I might even be having ph issues, but won't have a ph meter any time soon.

I think I'll keep feeding untill I see cloudy trichromes, then start the flush. I'm going to need the LED's on the Think Different real soon too though...choices...choices...
