We continue to dry. This morning I got the new humidifier (pictured below, the one on the left). It has pretty much saved current and future bud from this issue. Maintaining constant humidity levels in either tent won’t be an issue moving forward 🙏.

Joe’s basement boof Your buds are looking a bit hairy. Judging by tent size and light intensity id try to cut back all the bottom buds and stick to no more than 10 heads per plant. You should also check your par/ppfd
PopsGarden420 I thought hair would be based on genetics 🤔 any suggestions on where to get a decently priced one? Or what I should be looking for in that.
Joe’s basement boof In terms of price there’s some decent apps that will give you an ok reading. While the hair can be genes it usually happens when your plant is dealing with light stress. 2 ways it can happen 1st way is your light is too close which Will usually cause 2+ pistols growing from one bud site. 2nd way is too far away from your plant in this case your plant will basically keep making new bud sites on top of undeveloped ones causing incomplete tric and buds. I’m guessing you have it too far from the plant

Clones are looking like they’ve took. Seeing a little new growth and light praising. Also I think increased water intake or the new fans are drying the moisture away faster. Either way shits drying faster then it was. 80/50 right now. Week 7 Day 3 about 4ish weeks to go I think for BB. Probably closer to 6ish weeks for Runtz 1&2.

SaviiBuds Neem is poisonous to humans when consumed. It use to be widely used but new studies show that it’s toxic and it even have a potential link to CHS. Be careful spraying it on flowering plants. If it’s just going on the soil you should be fine!
PopsGarden420 I appreciate you spreading that knowledge and awareness. 🙌 mostly using it on stems. Had been over watering. First grow. I know 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ …. 😂 learning from it is what counts I guess. Appreciate it again.
SaviiBuds No problem! I just don’t want people getting sick thinking they are using a safe option! As long as you aren’t consuming it you should be fine! Overwatering is a common mistake. You’ll get it! Keep picking them up and trying to learn their weight. It takes a little practice but I have full confident you’ll get it! Everyone has some trial and error starting out. Hell, sometimes a few grows in it’s still a little trial and error 😂. Figure out what works for you and stick with that. Then when you have a basic routine down and coast through a run you can start experimenting more. They’re delicate but also super resistant at the same time, you got this.

zer0applied Out of curiosity, how much were you watering for that level of over watering to occur.
zer0applied On a side note. My one Runtz plant I have right now requires wayyyyy less water than my other strains. She gets a gallon every other day where as some get as much as two gallons. My cookies gelato gets a gallon every day and sometimes twice a day and it’s a ten gallon pot with FFOF.
PopsGarden420 Interesting you noted that, just this plant had that response and I water 1 gallon of water after 2-3 days of no water. The rest of the plants are fine and even the other Runtz are fine. Might just some of the pheno types have sensitivity to it.

Adjusted the stakes and added a significant amount to each due to the new bud formation and new growth. Also did a little defoliation all around.

We’ve decided to take our training to a higher level. I want my yield 💪💪👌. Grabbed these 6inch metal things off Amazon for like 20$ for 100. They are the best thing I’ve used so far. I’m actually kind of nerding out on how well they’re going to work. Watered after I took these photos. Happy Sat. Growers 🤙

Last night I decided to rotate the plants, transplanted the random seed into a larger pot, and added nutrients to that pot. (Furthest pot) Today I’m going to raise the light up a bit and do some training. 🤙🤙

Tried to get a close up on the random seed (black pot). The rest of our ladies are coming along nicely. The largest 3 have already starting showing pistol hairs. This little one is taking its time catching up 🤦♂️🤷♂️. Another day closer to harvest.

Added amendments to two of the plants showing signs on early flower. The random seed still needs sometime before we start seeing sex. Feeling hopeful though. Also resecured LST ties,

These were taken on portrait mode. All of the plants received increase in water. Water ph to 6.5 the training is definitely impacting the plants in a positive way. Stems look thick and healthy. I don’t think I’ve honestly grown any plant of any kind that’s been this healthy. I’m pleasantly surprised to say the least 😂😂🤣 Happy Growing and Good Vibes 🤙

Signs that early flower is on its way. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas. 🤣 … So asking anyone with a lot of experience to look a the photo of the black pot. It’s a random seed. The rest are autos. Sketchy but don’t judge me 😂 .. I’m thinking since these are 5 gallon pots I’m okay to wait maybe another week before reammending the tops. The recipe I plan to us is 50/50 444-284 with 1 cup worm castings and probably 4-8 cups of happy frog soil the (brown bag). It has a lot of good stuff in it that I’m sure will be helpful to the plants. Plus some of the pots will need the extra soil since I left them shallow.

Rearranged and secured new ties for LST. Questions: Should I be concerned the light is to close because these plants are not stretching toward the light very much? Or is this just par for the course for auto flowers? Thoughts on this random seed? (Black pot.) not showing signs yet but we will see I guess.Last question is for anyone using organic amendments. Best time to reammend? I’m thinking anytime after 3 weeks don’t want to go too long that show signs of nutrient deficiencies but don’t want to go too early burn either. I guess with organic that’s harder to do. Thoughts?

Got home from the office to check the plants and both that were tied down bucked the toes and popped back up 😅😅 I’m gonna order some better wire for the training. Overall everything is going smoothly. 🤞hoping this continues throughout.

HokieHigh2011 Soil is looking a little dry, do you just water around the plant? I heard the whole pot should be soaked so the roots venture out to the edges of the containers.
PopsGarden420 Yes I noticed that earlier as well. I actually just use a tall plastic cup from Walmart to wet around the base of the stem. The larger plants I’ve been doing cup and half. Estimating probably 2-3 cups of water. Daily so far. Going to start water more tho. Just got a 5 gallon jug to hold more. Before it was 1 gallon at a time. Also all the plants have different dirt because I pieced everything together. All have the same amount of nutrients tho. Just different medium.
HokieHigh2011 Yeah definitely about time to start watering the whole pot until you get runoff. Sounds like you got it tho good luck growmie!

After taking some time to do a little research and get more familiar with low stress training best practices I decided to 1) Topped the random seed and began LST, 2) Began LST on Brucey B auto, water all plains at ph 6.5

Update: so I’ve really had some luck getting this started with the seeds. I lost some BB seeds (or I thought I did) turns out they sprouted anyway lol so now we have a crop going. 2 Runtz auto 1 BB auto and 1 random. The random I might just take out. we will see.

SaviiBuds The last one looks like it might be a little tri-leaf baby!!
PopsGarden420 That would be pretty cool!
SaviiBuds Based on the start, I think it is! It’s the pretties mutation they can have in my opinion!
