Update Day 44

Hey AFN!! Today is Day 44 and I watered with plain pH'd water except i added 1/4 strength of big bloom(.03-.5-.7) which promotes root healing and health. There starting to get thirsty, I was waiting 3 days in between watering but i think i'm going to water every 2nd day and feed every other watering because the soil is pretty dry throughout. I finally received my fox farms nutrient trio, but dont want to start watering too early due to me over feeding it over the last week. Should i start next watering with nutes or should i do another plain watering?

The smell is intoxicating!!!!! citrus and pine, and it smells wonderful!!! The leaves on the bigger one are starting to get a little frosty, ill post a small bud shot!!

Here are a few shots of the plants, any input or advice on them is greatly appreciated. Thanks AFN for being here!!!!!

Here's a picture from yesterdays update that shows the curled leaf tips from over feeding last week. Will these go back to normal? and Should I flush again tomorrow before going to flowering nutes?

So for whatever reason I'm really struggling with grasping the concept of feeding with nutes. I don't want to hurt my plant anymore but i also don't want to hold it back with not enough nutes. On the Fox Farm Trio feeding schedule it was feed two times per week. I know you cant follow there schedule for autos, but kind of use it as a guideline. So i use 1/4 strength for feeding. But when it says feed two times per week at 2 tsp/gal does that mean divide that 2 tsp between two feeds? Or water twice each with 2 tsp? Example: i water the other day with 1/4 tsp for 1/4 strength so should i water again today with 1/4 str? Or should I start watering with half that, so 1/8 of a tsp per watering. Since i've had to start nutes i have been unsure and would just like to figure out.

Any links or any comments or advice are great.

Thanks AFN!
 
That would mean 1/2 table spoon twice a week

Based on what the bottle says and the idea of going 1/4 strength to start on autos.

Other than that simple reasoning I know nothing lol

Update Day 48

Just a quick update. Not a whole lot to update tho. Watered today with 1/4 strength bloom nutes. Hopefully my girls will finish out strong. WW1 was getting a little top heavy so my wonderful girlfriend got some wooden dowels and setup both plants perfectly!

Update Day 53

Hey AFN! Posts have slowed down because not a whole lot is happening to update. Both plants are looking good. I'm planning on going the recommended 75 days. So i figured two more weeks of feeding and then flush for a week. As much fun as I've had in this grow im looking forward to it being over. I made a lot of mistakes which is expected from a new grower, so i want to start fresh with my new knowledge and really see what I can do.

Temps are much easier to control now so instead of it being in the low 80s all the time i can easily keep it mid to low 70s. A few amber hairs are coming up here and there on WW1.

Here are a few pictures from this morning. I think that WW1 is your typical WW auto and WW2 is just a little straggly bush. But all is good. Thanks AFN!!!
