1st auto grow

Hi @Undercovergrower! If it's your first time with autos, you might consider letting the plant grow in its natural shape with no HST operations such as topping or fimming. LST works well with autos but HST manipulations usually stunt the growth for a week or more. Remember with autos, loosing time is loosing yield. However if you're confident about this and if you're not hurry to smoke your buds, you can try to top her at the 3rd node after the 4th node has developed. This way, you loose a part of the plant, but the recovery / new growth happens much faster. Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

Hello @Undercovergrower ! What you have there is nitrogen and phosphorus deficiencies.The purple stems and petioles can be occurred from many different things so its not very reliable indicator. Ideally the nitrogen deficiency should start at around week 8 but that's not a big problem, the problem is the phosphorus deficiency . The fact that you have a phosphorus deficiency so soon tells me that your plant didn't develop its buds at its full potential. Anyway, since your are at week 8 there is no need to raise the grow nutrients. What you can do is to raise the bio bloom. A dosage of 1 ml/l bio bloom for this stage of flowering is very very low even if you were using all mix. Raise it at 4 ml/l for 1 maybe 2 weeks and then flush. One thing is sure man, you are going to have a very smooth smoke without nutrients taste. Happy growing ! 👊
