Lighting The Bucket Strikes Back! (3 autos with LEDs)

[sielm]

Hey there! Pic update: the Assorted#2 continues the CS treatment. I try to spray only the lower part of the plant, to see if I get a central female bud and some pollen on the lower branches...we'll see if this homemade CS stuff works... Apart from this I fed her with a mild solution of Plagron Terra Bloom (NPK 2-2-4) and she took it really well. In fact she has stretched quite a bit these last 2 days! The bad thing is, I accidentally "supercropped" her, when I was spraying my hand went off and poof! I bent the main cola almost 90º. I just did not want this to happen, because I want the main cola to be as far away of the lower branches as possible. Anyway, here are the Assorted#2 pics:


The next lady is the Sweet Skunk #1. She also got a bit of Terra Bloom solution (which should help with any kind of Mg deff I hope) and begins showing some hairs here and there. I decided I won't be spraying her with the CS. I will only use CS on the Assorted#2 and try both to autopollinate that plant and this Sweet Skunk#1. We'll see what the future brings lol!


Now the small ladies. From left to right, Fast Bud, Sweet Skunk#2, Sweet Cheese:


ANd finally a group shot:


Hope you enjoy the reading! Best regards

Hi all! The plant has recovered quite nicely from that accident. In fact it had already straightened up when I visited them yesterday. There is a brown spot in the wounded zone but otherwise it looks OK. I've been using CS like twice a day, applying 10 or so sprays each time. I only spray the lower canopy, in hopes for the cola to remain female


The Sweet Skunk Auto #1 is getting some resin on the upper leaves. Looking good so far...


The little young ones: from L to R it's the Fast Bud, Sweet Skunk Auto #2 and Sweet Cheese Auto:

On this last pic the Assorted#2 is missing. It was outside, waiting a couple of hours after being sprayed with CS before getting inside again. BTW we have a new guest: a seed of SAD (Sweet Afghani Delicious) Auto has been put to germinate. I expect to add a new (small) soil pot for this plant (which would be the 6th for now!). Probably a new 1 liter or smaller plastic pot, I've yet to decide.

That's all for now! Thanks for passing by friends!

Small pic update. The Assorted#2 is growing a lot lately! I've been applying CS to her for the last 5 days, so maybe this has something to do with this sudden development? Or maybe it's due to the fact that I leave her on the dark for 6 hours so that the CS is absorbed and does not touch the other plants (instead of the 20/4 cycle inside of the bucket). I'm not sure, but she's really stretching fast ATM!


The SweetSkunk#1 after drinking some 300ml of distilled water. She was kind of sick-looking yesterday, but she looks better right now:


The 3 small ladies are doing fine for now. To be honest the soil mix I use is a bit on the hot side for seedlings, but it was all I could afford... I already had some lying around. Anyway these seedlings look like they are handling it without much trouble. From left to right, Fast Bud, SweetSkunk#2 and SweetCheese:


I'll try to take some more detailed pics from the grown ones later, so till then, have a nice day!

Some bud shots from the remainings of the Green Poison Auto. This is the weed I've been smoking these last days. It's pretty strong, although I'm kinda building a tolerance lately. I'm baked right now however :smokebuds:

Figured it would be cool to take some shots with a black background. BUt my shitty cam decided it was not such a good idea... only these are focused lol


Which are, in fact, pictures of the same bud piece lol but turned and with a different flash setting. Anyways, there are only 3 more buds left from the GPA, so I will not have a dry weight to report on this one although I'm sure this plant was the lowest yielding out of the 3 first ones.

That's it for now! See you soon!

There are some more pics of the girls today...

First some Assorted#2 pics. She had just been sprayed with CS before taking the pics. She's grown quite a bit during this first week of CS application. Lower parts look dirtier because of the spray, which is not too plant-friendly.


The not-so young Sweet Skunk#1 is one month old already! She has not been growing too much lately. There are hairs appearing on the center and on lower canopy too, although she looks a bit stunted. Upper leaves are clawed, but she's been this way for a long time now. Upper leaves are also dark green, whereas lower leaves look yellower each day. It looks as if she was overfed if you look at the upper canopy, but the yellowing lower leaves are bit contradictory with that... anyway, I've been watering this one with distilled for a couple of days, and will continue for a few more. Then I'll begin using some bloom nutes. I don't expect much growth, but I can't stop thinking about the previous plant, the Assorted#2, which has recovered from a worse status and grew a lot.


The little ones are each day less little from L to R, Fast Bud, Sweet Skunk#2, Sweet Cheese, and the last one is the (not sprouted yet) Sweet Afghani Delicious:


Finally here are some bud shots from the Fast Bud harvested a couple of weeks ago. It's been transferred to 3 crystal jars for a better cure. I will try to measure the whole harvest soon!


Hope you enjoy these pics! Thanks for passing by, and as always, have a nice day
