New Grower First Grow - Iranian Autoflower (fem) in hydro

[low_and_slow]

The 1 remaining PAK (killed a male last week) is female! Saw some TINY TINY TINY pistils on her this morning. She's finally coming around...I had thought it was a junk pheno because she was growing so slowly, but she's actually building a VERY stout/strong structure...her main stem is thicker than my 7.5 week old PJEM!

The Iranians are per-flowering like mad, as well as stretching for the heavens. They've each doubled in size in the last 10 days, vertical height wise. HydroPJEM is truckin' along too...burned her nice and good initially, but now I'm on just the tiniest mildest dose of nutes and she's starting to take off. Everyone is lookin' happy today.

The PJEM that's in soil is getting ready to pluck as well...don't have a scope or mag. glass so I'm going to guesstimate based on age/leaves/pistil color. I'll start getting critical next week and then assess as things move along.

These IAFs are going to be sick...there are at least 12 bud sites right now per plant, each with roughly 4-5 main tops (I topped each twice in veg). I'll try to get pics this weekend when I haul them out of the tent for their weekly TLC. It's getting down to the wire on the PJEM...she's a TINY TINY TINY bit purple, but it's mostly just frosty green and fading yellow.

The HydroPJEM is in full on flower mode at a towering 3". I'm convinced the 12/12 cycle just threw my seedlings into bud production and they're going to yield crap. The PAK is also budding out full bore, but she's closer to 8-10" and might give off a nice juicy center cola. TBD, I'll get photos this weekend!

Yeah, 2 of them I double topped...one plant I didn't so much top her as triple top her, so instead of growing 2 main colas from one, she grew 1 main cola from 1 because I accidentally plucked on leaflet. Anyway, she's got a TON of bud sites but is stretching up that one main stem to create a "main" cola. It's pretty cool...I wish I had them in separate buckets so they could really blow up.

Chopped the PJEM...I got 23g of light/airy/loose bud...not very dense, certainly not "premium grade" but she's DAMNED sticky and smells HEAVILY of pine. I sucked my fingers clean after manicuring her and now I'm getting a really heavy head buzz, loss of fine motor control, and my lips and tongue are both tingly and numb at the same time.

I expect about 1/5th of an ounce of total yield, not bad for a stunted little runt who finished under 12/12 instead of 20/4. I've got a pic of her chopped, can't upload right now due to technical difficulties. She's drying in the oven right now...oven is off of course, just using it as a dry, safe, dark place with a constant temperature and humidity.

The hydro PJEM grew nanners...had to pull her this morning. 100% an example of how you can stress a plant into hermie'ing. Bummer, but it makes more room in the tent for those tasty iranians to fatten up

Thanks buddy, I appreciate it! The PAK was looking mighty hungry last night, so I mixed up a gallon of full strength veg nutes from the GO Box, pH'ed to 6.3 and split it three ways between my remaining plants. Everyone looked happy this morning, hopefully she greens up by the weekend :dance:

Also gave some of my recently harvested pjems to my friends mom with MS...one TINY puff and she was pain free in minutes. Its a good feeling, especially with an all organic product
