Northern Lights Autoflower, about to start week 14 since germination and week 8 of flower. How much longer y'all think? Any comments or feedback is great. This is my first grow btw
Yeah I've read some stuff on here about the different stages the Trichomes will go through. Can I also gauge it by how many of the white pistils have turned amber/orange, or what does that mean as far as readiness?
I’m not sure about the white hairs never heard using them to tell but I could be wrong. U want mostly cloudy with a few ambers. If it ambers up to much it will be more of a couch lock high and more than likely u will go to sleep.
Temps have been around 72-81 degrees with humidity around 35-45%. I think she did get some nute burn, I've been using 1/2 strength fox Farms trip
So if start flush now, just give it only plain water for the next week or so and then I'm good to chop? Possibly around April 25-30?
Those curled crispy tips tell me something..shes hot bro..either light to close to her or shes getting to hot no enough air flow to keep her cool one of those or she would be flat and Nice
Nice looking auto. Getting close. And yes the pistils do tell you something. If the bud is still producing white pistils, it is still growing. When it basically stops throwing new pistils and they brown and start receding your bud is ready and you can focus on the trichs. Be sure to check the trichs in the bud not on the sugar leaves. Congrats. Great first grow. And an auto at that. I can't get my autos to produce more than a couple grams and are tiny. Easy part is over. The toughest part is waiting .
Thanks for clearing that up. I couldn’t remember if u could tell by the pistols but when u said that it reminded me. Thanks
I think it's an airflow thing because the light is about 18inches to 2 feet above the plant. I'm not using a tent, simple closet stealth grow with foam boards as a reflector. Got a desk fan circulating air around the light, and a inline fan sitting on a carbon filter above it (no ducting) and then another oscillating fan outside my closet with the door cracked blowing fresh air in there. Gave 1/4 strength nutes on week 9 and then 1/2 strength week 10-13, and then gave it plain water yesterday to begin flush. I feel like it's a combination of a little over feeding and then lack of adequate air flow
To be 100%, no idea. I had a buddy order the seeds for me and they stayed true to be autoflowers (flowered on 18/6 light schedule) but as far as breeder goes, not sure.
Thank you for the feedback. So some of the comments mentioned my nutrient burn. If I stop feeding it now and remain on plain water for the rest of the grow, the nutrient burn displayed here shouldn't severely affect my harvest should it? Again, it's my first grow and I'm happy to have just made it this far in the process
