Last water will actually happen tonight, then I think I’ll go with just 16 hours of darkness to help dry it out some to make it easier to deal with, with my bad wrist/hand, I am so excited to get her to dry and cure!

Thinking I’ll give her the last feeding tomorrow morning and flush that night and run 48 hours of darkness with no water to start to dry her out, then cut her down and hang

I love but also hate this final stretch, really want to cut her down now but still needs a few days for sure and I know it will be worth the wait

Day: 74
Will be back from the vacation in 4 and a half days, hopefully my roommate doesn’t mind taking care of her in the home stretch all to much! One of the buds got to thick for that stem and started falling iced today, had to rig something together real quick before the flight

Getting prepped for flushing since I’ll be out of town for 5 days and it will be easier for my roommate to just flush then worry about mixing nutrients and EC. Trip is in two days, current EC 875. Hopefully by the time I’m back she will be finished! Will be just over the 11 week mark then, and this strain is supposed to go 9 to 11 weeks (some I’ve seen harvested on week 12 but I want more of a sativa feel)

Starting to pack on some real weight, I love that I can visibly see these getting larger every 12 hours when I open the tent to water. Starting to bring down EC to my ripen schedule. Current EC 1095, will bring down 40-50 EC per feeding with two feedings a day until I hit 700 EC

Roots going crazy! Still upset about the dumb heater mistake, but it’s bolted down to a shelf now so it can’t move haha. Morning water at 5.8 PH 956 EEC using early bloom nutrient schedule from cocoforcannabis, runoff EC at 992

First pistols starting to show, trying out the ponytail LST technique, will move to more of an actual LST within the next week. Slightly early for this strain, wondering if it was from the stress of the transplant

dolomight Possibly, Autos need to be in one home their whole life so you don’t have to stunt it or have any issues
dolomight Still great grow homie 🔥🔥
keykey555 I’ve had success in the past with it, mostly seems to depend on the plant. Most blow up after the transplant, some seem to hate it. I was a little rough with this transplant this time too, but oh well. Thanks man!

Heater broke for 2 days, soil was cold causing yet another stunt for this plant sadly. Got the heat back up last night, just transplanted to final container. The tupur seems to be holding moisture for longer than a typical 70/30 coco blend, cutting watering back to once a day

Numerous large roots poking through the bottom, will transplant tomorrow to 5 gal for the rest of the time

Tap root showing outside of fabric pot AM of day 19, lst begun

keykey555 Couldn’t be much else, indoor grow in a sanitized room. Heater is broken at the bottom, so if anything I believe it’s just the tap root sticking out, should air prune itself pretty quickly if so
keykey555 I can literally see the root hairs on it haha, just a thick healthy girl I believe. Will double check on r/microgrowery since it’s my first coco run
G-Thang Keykey, what did it end up being? It’s a little thick and stubby to be a root in day 19. I’d investigate the soil a little. Not saying it’s not a tap root, I’m not there I’m only going by my experience. They are usually very hairy and quite thin that early. But do a simple investigation and riddle us all!!! Keep growing regardless of the hate!!!🪴💪🏾

Lights moved down a bit, tucking newer growth under older growth to encourage the bottom stems to thicken. 6.0 PH and 713 EC ; 65.5% humidity and 25 degrees Celsius

keykey555 Yup, they busted out the bottom the next day 😂
Day: 16
Moved light 6 inches closer, PPFD (according to photone on iPhone 12 Pro Max) from 257-404. Added extra coco mix that previously was buffered then watered with todays AM feed, to help support stem while silicon does its work to thicken the parts above even more. After about an hour the plant straightened out as I stood it up more straight with the extra coco and it was lopsided
