In Bloom
I've got a couple of autos growing outdoors. Neither has gotten astonishingly big but both are stacked pretty well and still growing fatter. I'm in my 3rd year, I've tried autos each year with results ranging from dismal to unsatisfactory. This year, these two, could be the breakout year. They are on Day 80, breeder says 90-ish iirc, showing no sign at all of fading, and still growing plumper by the day. I just came in from pulling buds open to check for pm, rot, etc. and glad to say no sign of that. Lots of fresh healthy bud babies down in there in line to blow up.
So I guess my question relates in a way to flushing. I don't have strong beliefs good/bad either way, I do try to cut off ferts in photos lets say 30-21 days before chop. I'm trying to figure out if I should give these guys ferts again, that's all. Again, Day 80 but zero sign of fade and new growth coming on down deep. I'm thinking ferts are ok, seems like these guys may go a little long on days, and I could always reduce strength of what I give to say 75% +/-.
These plants have the tightest bud I've grown and I'd really like to get these to the jar in due time, and check off an achievement box. I'm watching real close for all the crap that snatches your victory away just before you get to the finish. Pests, rot, pm, my past experience is, once the buds are on the battle begins. Right now it's so far so good, ferts or no what say you auto growers ?
This years grow photo wise will come out ok it seems but certainly has not been what I wanted for this season. Problems at the start held everything back but if I get these guys in I'll have sufficient reason to feel ok about the whole thing.
