Sure will.
Things I did on day 27
I lsted the two on the outside. I also turned the bloom switch on and moved it up to 30". (From 140watts to 260watts) Going to let them grow into the light till 24" then raise it as needed to maintain 24". I top dressed all with 2 tablespoons of dr earth 3-9-4 and 1 tablespoon of worm castings.
I'm going to top dress during waterings till I'm at 2 tablespoons per gallon of medium of dr earth ammendments. Then it will be just dr earth, molasses, and worm casting teas till harvest.

I noticed lower pistils turning red and Started looking really close and seen this little ball sack:cuss:. It looks like it opened prematurely, and possibly it was sterile. They are really smallI've been messing with them with the lights off. Wasn't even thinking about it throwing balls because of the 18/6 schedule and them being autoflowers:wall: . Found 2 others that were not open on different branches. I'm wondering if the stem pre-flowers on autos turn red around 2 weeks??

I had a calcium def. on the middle one 2 days ago. Feed her molasses and worm castings and she has exploded again. Gave the other 2 molasses and worm castings today. They are all flowering. No more balls. I think she will be good now. 20200601_195916.jpg20200601_195859.jpg20200601_200005.jpg

Day 34
Did a little defoliation because they are getting crowded. Plus I was able to get some lower bud sights exposed and better circulation. the middle girl keeps trying to grow over the other 2. I'm thinking about moving her to the side to give one of the smaller ones the center of the light .
Im also thinking about ordering a hydro farm 600. (Add 100 more watts from the wall to make a total of 360), to have a better light distribution. My light is 260 watts from the wall Chinese made but was made with triple 5w bridgelux(great company) chips . I also just turned the bloom switch on less than a week ago. Very powerful light, I just dont think it spreads good enough.

Ts600 has been added. The humidity has stayed 40-60%. The bluetooth hydrometer sensor was sitting on a leaf and bud site. Which was making it read alot higher.( the other 2 hydrometer didnt go over 60%) loving this $12 bluetooth thermometer/hydrometer, that logs temps and humidity. definitely money well spent

Day 45
Girls are starting to drink alot . I had a magnesium def. Starting, so I gave them Epsom salt, worm castings, and bs molasses a few days ago. Seemed to fix it and they never slowed down.:hump: Stretch has stopped, time to fatten the ladies up.
Im trying to get my lights positioned right. I dont think I have quit found that sweet spot yet. Leds can be a pain to dial in, then throw another light in the tent that's less that half the power.... I definitely have plenty of light, maybe to much. I need a par meter.
If anyone is interested in what, and how much I'm feeding. lmk and I will break it all down.

They turned out alright. About half way through smoking plant 2 of 3. Doesnt seem like they took the strain tru enough generations. All 3 were completely different strains it seemed like. Plant 3 will get pressed soon. All tasted and growed different. I would almost say they were all different strains. Even all had different bud structures. I smoked all of the best plant already :bigjoint:. Didnt weigh anything. But I would say at least 3 ounces on the biggest. 2 on the smallest. Here is plant 2 of 3 im smoking now. 20200813_144106.jpg

20200813_144106.jpg20200813_144058.jpgThis plant taste and smells exactly like gg#4. Plant 3 is put up and can't get to it rn. Its not trim all the way because I only grow for personal meds, because it is still illegal in my state

Hope they get the legal shit right soon. We finally passed our medical this year, still no dispensaries open yet. I had extensive gardening experience already just not with cannabis.
