25/01 The last couple of day's have seen a lot of new branches starting to form while the main stem has tripled in thickness. Pretty sure this growing out rather than up is my girl's way of prepping for flowering, I fully expect to see signs of pre flowers at some point this week. Probably a bit late but started adding some power roots to her feed, hopefully I'm not too late. 27/01 Growth is still going strong, it's still colder than I would like but it doesn't seem to be bothering her much. Thinking of adding a bit of co2 to my tent, a freind mentioned you can just buy some sort of baggies. If anybody has any experience with them would love some opinions. 30/01 Some great growth past few day's, she's looking much bushier and the secondary branches are starting to come on real nice! Tried to bend her over but think i've left it to late because she wouldn't budge without putting more stress than I was comfortable with. Both plants have started drooping 30 minutes before I switch off the lights and perk up again about an hour after I switch them on, haven't been able to find a definitive reason for this but it seems common enough and she's looking real good. Still gave me a fright first time I saw it though 🤣 Pretty sure she's just about to enter flowering pics in grow question. 01/02 Last day of this grow week and first sight of pistils 😁 seeing a speed up of growth also, the side branches in particular are starting to shoot up nicely. Should I start straight away with flowering nutes, carry on with veg nutes or I was thinking about skipping a feed just to clean up the soil a bit. Thoughts?

Do some genetics stretch more than others as seedlings or is it always a case of not enough light? Pictures are 20 hours apart

It can surely be genetic but I’d consider your lighting as well. This is kinda normal in my experience, to shoot up Quick like that in a short period, however - if it continues over the next day or two.. that’s an issue. My guess is it won’t stretch more like that.. but start seeing growth in the leaves. As long as it can support itself I don’t worry too much about that stretching in the beginning.

So I've been using only RO water since she sprouted, have I effectively washed away all the nutrients in the soil? Should I start feeding her just a little bit of nutes to compensate?

Yes it will, But the amount will be so minor it would not make a difference. You are in soil so you don't want to have much runoff anyways. Your depending on the microbe life inside the soil to break it down into nutrients for your plant. So if you water with a lot of runoff you can wash away this life and cause issues. As for feeding it would depend on how rich your soil is. Are you organic and by feeding your top dressing organic compounds. Or are you going to start using salt based nutrients?

Can changing light source cause stress to your plant? Yesterday I changed from a CFL to a 150w Mars Hydro LED and this morning she looked a bit "sad". I took the photo straight after watering hence the damp soil.

Yeah that could be the case.. maybe dim it at 50% and raise that setting a bit every day. It’ll adjust quickly tho no worries

Is this pre-flowering? Do Auto's even pre-flower or is the change so rapid it's veg one day flowering the next?

Loads of contradictory stuff out there about pistils turning dark during flowering. Some say it's normal early on because you get multiple rounds of growth others say it can mean it's been pollinated. Do mine look ok?

Checked few diaries myself. Just looks like the way she grows and maybe it's just starting a lil earlier. Autos have a mind of their own you'll never get the same strain to grow more or less the same with autos 90% of the time. She looks healthy and happy bro.

Been flushing for the past week, the larger fan leaves are starting too turn yellow faster than I had anticipated but trich's haven't started turning amber yet. All the other sign's point towards her being about a week away from the chop but I'm a bit worried that I flushed early

Any time from now to a week will be plenty for this plant. Not all plants get amber trichomes by the way, therefore basing your harvest based entirely/exclusively according to trichome colour has some problems associated with it. Once your plants have 98-99% brown pistils, it means her life is almost over, therefore harvesting just before she goes into decline, will give you buds with peak cannabinoid levels. Once she is past this point, as indicated by 100% brown pistils, THC breaks down quite rapidly into CBD and CBN, which are 2 non-psychoactive cannabinoids that produce a sleepy effect, but don't actually get you high. Anyway, you are right on track to harvest as planned. Hope this helps, Organoman.
