Something's just occurred to me

Lovely grow you got going, is that just one plant?
Yes, just one. It's an Early Miss that was supposed to be an Auto but wasn't. She is a bit of a beast and takes up my whole 5X5X7 foot tent. I had to remove the brackets from light and mount it right to ceiling as one of the colas as getting a bit burnt but recovered fine. They are in Coco using the Flora series nutes.

I use Promix HP and mega Crop with my 400-600ppm tap water

Works fantastic

Yes...I literally have rocks and fish swimming in my tap water I swear...lol


I changed from DWC to soil because the Mega Crop is so easy and works fantastic

You've got me worried as I've got three in the tent , I've put all my efforts into learning autoflower these past months, and I was successful,IMG_20200710_211238.jpg
As you can see she was small. Got about 58g dry. Just not sure what to expect after seeing your grow.

I have a Wilma system 4 pot 18ltr XL, I will be having a go with that, only once I have a few grows under my belt though, everyday is a learning day for me right now.

I wouldn`t worry about it at all. When I flipped that plant was a bit over 3 feet tall so much bigger than yours. Much is likely strain dependent, your pics show lots of space. You may want to invest in a net if you don`t have one to try to keep the canopy level as it grows but other than that I think you will be just fine.

I'm very happy with the Mega Crop in soil
But wouldn't use it in DWC. I run an auto water systems when I go camping for a week or so and it gets really gunked up. Lots of settling in the bottom

I use GH Flora Trio in DWC, love it

Yes thanks for the info, IL look into the net idea.

I usually run 5-5.5gr per gallon thru flower, never had a deficiency yet

Some push it higher but always seem to be chasing issues when they do

I'm going to switch 12 hour light from tonight and keep it the same feed as I have been doing, IL keep an eye out for any changes, in flower would you suggest feeding a bit more when the bloom phase starts?

I haven't
I flipped at 5gr/gal and stayed there
I may go, at times, to 5.5ish since I do 5gal at a time, but not much different

If they never show hunger pains, just stay at what yer doing now

Yep that was what I was thinking too, IL keep it all the same and see how they go, just set the timers to 12 hour light schedule from to night onwards, I have another question, how long dose the flowering phase on a photo period last on average?, I know you can't give me exact numbers but just generally?

Google says the AK strain has about an 8 week Flower time,but that's from a breeder which means NADA....LOL

So probably 8-9 weeks from flip, ish
Sorry you may have picked me up wrong on the AK plant, the three plants I have still going are northern lights, the AK is the plant I've just harvested and it was an autoflower,.
