Is she Ok? Any notes from more exp growers?



Shes super dense..
Ive got 3 Mars Hydro 100W lights angled on her to try give an even LUX reading all over, and to try to penetrate into the canopy

She looks beautifull. How many weeks into flower? What medium u grow in? My only suggestion would be a good defoilation

Looking good. +1 on removing some leaves

Awesome, maybe I’m just paranoid.. She’s an unknown Autoflower in a 10L fabric pot with coco coir.. unsure of how long in flower.. I keep promising myself I’m going to start keeping records of everything, but never do. (ADHD diagnosis pending) I research heaps of stuff, forget it all and pretty much end up just winging everything.
Shes my first Auto, I think stunted because I initially had a pretty hard time getting any kind of stable temp/RH.

I just had 3 Photos herm on me in the next tent in RDWC. Potentially because I got a little carried away and did 3 pretty big defoliations in a row, who knows :man_shrugging:t4:
And i seem to remember something about Autos not being fans of being touched up too much, so now maybe im being overly cautious.

While we’re at it, I just moved a little DWC set up into the other tent yesterday.. I topped them up with some of the water from the RDWC system before their first 12 off flip. (didn’t want to waste it, and they were perfectly healthy.. just grew balls) and now a couple leaves are showing this.. any ideas?

What are we talking? Just try to get in there and remove a bunch of fan leaves clogging up the centre?
Ive been consistently removing ones that point backwards or are blocking inner bud sites. I just didn’t want to go too hard in case shes temperamental :man_shrugging:t4:

Ive done a few autos and have had no problems defoiliating.. just dont go more than 20% each time and give her a week to recover..as far as the pucs of the leave it looks like just some splash back got on the leaves pics of the whole plant will help

The first couple I took a fair bit.. probably not 20%… but its been less than a week between trims for sure.
I have no concept of time :face_exhaling:

That plant looks amazing. You are doing a great job.. hermies can happen for many reasons. Hell i just did a run where i took 6 clones from a plant and all the clones hermied but not the mother. With yours being in dwc they might not have liked the move. Dont be afraid to take leaves off here and there… if ur nervous of doing it all at once. Do a little each day lile maybe 10 to 15 leaves and wait 2 or 3 days then another 10 leaves

I literally just moved them from one tent to the next.. problem is, they’re all the same strain as the older ones that hermied, so I hope its not a genetic thing . Ive just flipped them, but Im not even sure they’ll have time to fully mature before im moving house :upside_down_face:

These were the older ones in RDWC

It very well could be a genetic issue. Just keep an eye on them and see how they go… i hope uou get them to finish b4 u move lol

Me too.. I mean, depending on how big they get, it wouldnt be IMpossible to move them to a waiting setup at the new place.. They wouldnt like it.. and everything would have to go exactly according to plan. But it could be done
My fear is that when I let my housemate know I’m leaving, he will move out too, and real estate will have to start showing people the property, which includes the shed :man_facepalming:t2:

Ah Dammit!

Hey bro autos can handle just about the same defoliation as photos just have to time it or stagger it slowly remove. I on the other hand hack them down to just node sites and let fans come back.

And they will come back.

Don’t be afraid to open up the canopy air movement threw it is very important.

Took it like a champ and recovered well.. still looking pretty dense in there. Should I be taking more off?
