My first time

Hey @Wakamaka4 sorry I missed your grow. Man I’m really feeling for you. You’ll get a few decent nuggs on there. In the future I would start your seedlings off in 16oz cup and work your way up. Cause they do like to fill out whatever there in before they start really growing. Get some soil. Fox farm works good. You can add 2 parts coco at first for your seedlings. After that you really can’t go wrong. You won’t have to really feed her for a month. Was it coco you were using? I haven’t really used straight coco but from what I hear it not for beginners. Don’t feel at all like it can’t be done. With everyone here to help you will make it happen. I wish I had this resource when I started.
Check out some micro grows. You can do something inside. Space buckets are cool. I did a grow in one.

You can always practice inside until summer.
Good luck and feel free to ask questions.

Don’t worry, that’s what autos do, it looks good, those buds will start getting bigger.

Don’t top anything it’s not good for autos, especially when they just started budding up. I would just let it do it’s thing so you have a grow under your belt that goes from start to finish.

Just focus on getting the right amount of nutrients in it👍

Yeah, if it’s an auto, and a regular, that’s a good sign. First, it’s a female! Second is that you won’t have to wait another month for it to start flowering. Autoflower means it basically starts flowering immediately and finish mature much faster than a photoperiod.

Today’s autoflower plants are top notch. It should be fine in that department. Another thing is seems like you said it’s a CBD? It will probably taste great but might not have any THC in it. Some are 1:1 ratio of CBD to THC which means that it would likely be around 7% CBD and 7% THC.

But, CBD has great medicinal properties and can help with sleep, anxiety, and lots of other ailments.

You’re gonna love growing it out from here on! They’re a mesmerizing plant to watch grow. Nice job! peace

Thank you guys.

Anyway if it’s not gonna give a lot, I will be still experience the flowering stage, which will help me to get my photo seeds handle next autumn.

I counted less than 100 seeds overall. Need to do something with them, right?! Lol.

Yeah, you should really enjoy the flowering time. If it will stay outside all of the time you will likely get some nice colors in your plant. That’s always enjoyable to me. You may be surprised when it comes to the yield. You’ll surely get some nice buds.

I’m still not totally sure on your feeding schedule. Hopefully one of the more experienced autoflower growers will give you more accurate info.

I’m really happy for you to make it to the next stage. Just always err on the safe side of things when you wonder. A pot plant will literally grow without much of anything if the soil has basic elements in it. I’ve seen breeders grow them out with out any nutes and they still flower and give them an indication of how strong they are, I guess.

Happy trails! This could be the start of a lifetime of fulfillment. It really is an interesting plant in so many ways beyond growing buds. Most people fall in love with it early on. Hope things go well. Say safe! peace

I watered it with pure water pH 6.0. What can it be?

5 Likes

And I saw little black spider insects too.

Last night it was a beautiful plant. It seemed to me that I did pH 6. In the morning the plant looked a bit brownish. Now it’s down completely.

I sprayed a mosquito spray on it too. Coz I didn’t have pesticides under my hand, but mites were breeding under the leaves.

Wow that’s some fast deterioration

Sorry to say, but I think the mosquito repellent has wrecked it, not sure what’s in that particular repellant, but if it has deet, you would not have been able to use the plant anyway, without poisoning yourself.

The last time I used mosquito repellent with deet I had some on my hand and it melted the plastic pen I was doing a crossword with. Never used it again.

When you get problems nothing is really that bad that you have to make hasty decisions. Just take a deep breath, don’t panic and look for solutions or ask for help here. You probably could have just washed most of them off with water if you can’t find a plant/human safe insecticide.

What @Shadey said. Your medium looked dry in your photos. I would concentrate on the watering aspect, and never use chemicals on plants. Other then that great job! I bet u grow a hell of a plant next time! Pop some beans, and happy growing!

Oh wow, I’ve never seen a plant go that fast. It must have been the chemicals. Crap, I was stoked for you. Normally once they get going as good as yours they do okay and small problems can be corrected.

Hey, welcome to our world. We all made mistakes but it is always a great learning moment that we rarely forget. Hang in there… You are doing great and figuring out what the plant likes and doesn’t like. We’ll be here to cheer you on again. peace

Best vibes! You’ll get it. If you think you might get insects, just give a shout and we can give you safe and proven products or methods that won’t injure the plant. There are lots of homemade concoctions that work just as well or better than commercial products.

You’ll be glad you stuck with it. You were so close. lol… That was a pretty plant so you got it in you! Just shout when needed. If you can, read as much as you can online. It can give you things we may forget or miss.

Fun fact:
When the plant is growing without enough sunlight it starts creating huge leaves in order to get as much sun light as possible. Eventually it may fall down to the soil as the branch isn’t strong enough yet to life this many leaves with big sizes.

It has happened to me 4- 5 times already.

It happened to me a couple times lately too. Mine had plenty of light. Some strains do weird things.

Day 19-20

I figured out what was the problem with my previous plant. The pH was 4.5. So pure acid burnt it down immediately. I used to pour pH down based on my intuition. Right now I am checking the water with 2 pH meters + pH drops.

Hope I won’t mess this up this time.

I think it was more the bug repellent, that killed your plant, but a very low pH won’t help either.

Happy Christmas.

Is it showing the sex already? Day 21.

I doubt it. From my limited recent experience it shouldn’t be showing so quick.

Its hard to tell from that picture though, try to focus a little better.
