Afghani Autoflower from Growers Choice Seed Co.

These pics were taken a couple days ago. Seed popped above ground on March 10th. I grew this once in hydro, which gave me tons of yield, but was waaaaaay too much work. Since trying soil, I am amazed at how easy it is compared to DWC!!!

Pay no mind the billion dead fungus gnats lol. I had saved these after destroying a flock of them around the house, and when I saw a couple flying in the tent, decided to hit em hard, with both diatomaceous earth rubbed into the top inch of soil AND a dozen stickytraps. It worked! Have not seen a bug the last couple days.

Please join the discussion and feel free to post your own pics here :)

Nutrients = Currently just the Clonex black bottle. Will switch to General Hydroponics the regular 3 bottle NPK stuff once it gets bigger :) I had put together a mixture of a basic Dr. Earth pump stuff for tomatoes and kelp shit, but then I remembered I had the Clonex bottle! It's a good thing I didn't put too much of that stuff in, considering how too much nute-power in seedling stage can burn and stress your plant, something I overlooked some 10 days ago :)

These are about 15 days old in these pics. Anyone else growing autoflowers this week?

I was dead set on not topping this, but last night on day 16 I pinched the top growth off! Now I will be slightly anxious until I see 2 new shoots growing up to replace the one I pulled off! I doubt I'm alone in this type of anxiety ;)

Day 37. After topping, I applied plant clips to the 2 tops to help with canopy, but one day checked on it in the morning, only to find that one of the tops had snapped! I taped it, but had no luck :( I almost tossed it, but decided to see it through. It's looking beefy!

Day 41 - I;m beginning to think I may have a. nitrogen and perhaps all types of nutrient deficiency. I have only added fertilizer twice, and when I did it was only like 1 mL each of GH flora trio. IT being an auto, I better be careful not to overdo it, but I think next time I will hit it with 3 mL each!

What do you think?
