The potted ones are doing way better understandably, they were longer indoors and some time in the greenhouse.

Thank you @David1974 ! This time I didn’t plant as many plants as last summer as I thought I’d avoid the mistakes I made then and get more plants to finish line properly.

Well mother nature can throw a curve ball and when she does it in the early stages of autoflower veg the result is usually a diminished yield… I really hope they push through and stretch out, some of them showed their first hairs in the weekend so we will see soon enough!

Photoperiod alert!

Day one for the girls:

  • Açaí Mint Runtz x Forbidden Fruit
  • Troipcana Cookies x Wedding Cake
  • Apples’n’Bananas x (Gary Payton x Jealousy)

All bred by HappyPlant Genetics.

Idea is to make them big outdoors and move them to tents for flowering.

Today I’ll put them in the tent to optimum conditions for the seedling stage.

Lets hope this time I manage to finish photoperiods without hermie issues…

I don’t recommend this. You risk too much, a pest situation.

Yeah I know… I just thought to take it on because I have no other plants in the room for a while so maybe I could flower these ones and survive if there were some bugs. Then a thorough cleanup before indoor runs start again.

@Budbrother I have this girl which has been very light in color from the beginning. I haven’t given any extra N for her because I know the medium should have enough Biogrow ammended in it.

Should I give her something anyways?

Are the tops coming in too fast for the N - starting off yellow then darkening up? You said it’s always been on the paler side, it could be just the strain. Have you checked pH to see if it’s high. It has appearance of Fe def, but it’s on lowers too. Worth a check.

The growth is similar to other plants, and the other Apricots are of normal colour.

The soil and nutes are the same for all the plants.

This plant was always the odd one

Any response to above questions before I say add more N, in early flowering?

That doesn’t mean it stays that way. Plants consume at different levels depleting resources at different rates.

Since others are normal it could be that strain, pheno is a lime green one.

I haven’t checked the soil pH, I am quite torn between a million things to do at the moment… in the early stage I gave her some added b-52 but saw no reaction.

I’ll give them a Bioenhancer drink soon to bosst the biology, and just follow on how she starts flowering…

The first wave got hit with a cold week right after transplant, but for the most part they have pushed through the ordeal and some have started flowering. I do feel that the cold makes them stall everything including the transition. The potted plants which avoided the cold week are ahead in developement.

I agree. Been my experience outside the ladies like 70’s 80’s and even low 90’s. But Get above 95 or below 60 and they just stop or show signs of stress
