Hi everyone, I’m on my first grow. Reading these forums has been so helpful, so I wanted to post about my progress and see if you had any tips. Here’s some pertinent info:
Strain: Zkittlez Berry Blast (autoflower)
Soil: Kellogg organic potting soil with ~20% perlite and worm castings
Pot: 3 gallon terracotta
Light: 8+ hours sunlight per day (outdoor)
Temperature: I’m in Los Angeles, and it’s summer. Mostly it’s been 70s and 80s, but this week is up in the 90s.
Nutrients: Fox Farms Trio, which I started on day 23. I started with a 1/4 dose of Big Bloom and Grow Big, and I’m upping to a 1/2 dose this week, since the plant seems to be responding well. I use distilled water between 5.5 and 6.5 pH, but my soil always reads alkaline. I do not have a TDS meter (let me know if you think it’s a must).
Here are some pictures. Please let me know if you think I should adjust my process or if all looks good. Thanks, everyone!
