Here's my weekly update on my first 5 grows. Here's a panorama showing the 2nd 20x48" shelf added this week:
The oldest, at top right, is Northern Lights auto, now 70 days old:
These trich shots are from the node 1 bud at bottom left. Showing some amber:


Bubble Gum auto hasn't flowered yet at 63 days old. The Live Stoners' consensus is that she's not an auto. She had only circle training since day 17 to get a flat canopy. The main cola is at top right, lower than the node1 branches. As of last night her new home is on the sun deck. We'll see if 12 hours per day of natural light will flip her into flower mode. She had 20/4 and 18/6 under LED's for the last month indoors. She might be busy adding another node before she can flower:
Purple Kush auto is 56 days old. She had minimal LST from day 15, bending the main stem clockwise and tucking leaves to sun the lower bud sites. I think I did not succeed in breaking "apical dominance," because the main cola is much bigger than the others. She's been flowering since day 25. Very sticky buds. The skunky bouquet of last month has turned to a heavenly flowery scent:
She's showing some amber under a 50x bluetooth microscope jammed into the node1 bud at bottom left:

The Gold Leaf auto twins are far from identical even though they're both 29 days old. #1 was topped above the 4th node on day 19 and has a completely flat canopy of 8 colas. #2 was topped above node 4 on day 25, and the lower branches haven't caught up. I pulled down the 4 upper branches of both with jute twine poked through the edge of the fabric pot with a sail needle. #1 is already starting to flower. The tops I tried to root are not doing anything, but I'm going to leave them alone in case they're growing roots underground:



GG4 auto by GGstrains, via Hembra Genetics, is 8 days old. I took the dome off on day 2 and she stalled for a day. She's back on track now. In the future I'll make sure the first leaves are fully deployed before removing the dome:
I've been giving a light feeding of General Hydroponics Flora trio plus CALiMAGic every other watering. The bigger plants are using a liter every day or 2. I water when the $10 moisture meter gets in the red. That's all the news for this week. Thanks @420Forever, @Fermented_Fruitz for keeping me on track. Thanks @Mossy, @Jraven, and @runxtc for your encouragement. Thanks @Waira for sage counsel. Much love to all the Live Stoners. I intend to continue weekly updates on Fridays, as long as I remain above ground.
