Cheese and Lemon Ak

Walleyeguy Planted seeds 1 week ago. Both broke soil today. Going with a free seed ( canuk auto cheese ) and fast bud lemon ak for this grow. Last 2 strains I grew were indica dominate and gsc was some knock out week. We are looking a strong day smoke. So 2 sativa dominate strains.

Walleyeguy 1 week since germination. Having humidity issues. Less than 20 %. Added humidifier. Got up to 30 - 40 %. Lemon ak had issues shedding seed husk and cap around round leaves. Not sure if low humidity or seed husk caused issues but it seems to be coming around. Cheese had some issues dropping seed husk but is looking fine.

Walleyeguy Started to up nutes. Lemon ak still lagging but seems to be recovering from stress. Cheese is growing strong with good stem development. Upped water on both to start the 10 % run off. Veg growth should start taking off in next week or so. Update : humidity starting to build up here. Hope to stop using humidifier this soon.

Walleyeguy Had huge issues with exhaust fan over last week or so. Waiting on new fan. Figured out yesterday that the carbon filter was plugged with white dust from humidifier. Cleaned out filter. Now more exhausting than intake. Lol. But it's with control. Lemon ak is still lagging but had issues early on due to extreme dry air ( 20 % and under humidity) . Both are now in veg and lots of little shoots popping up. Expecting growth to take off this week with stretch starting in 2 weeks or so. Upping nutes. Expect to increase watering this week.

Walleyeguy Still having issues with humidity. Hopefully warming weather will add more natural humidity. Growth is starting to take off. Lots of leaf development over last week. Over last day or two starting to show signs the stretch is starting. Both are sativa dominate so planning on lots of height being added. Both plants seem to have some delay in growth but this seems to be mostly just being stuck in seedling stage longer once they hit veg they started to catch up. I believe this had to do with humidity issues. Roots on cheese have started to poke out of fabric pot on bottom. Both are now more thirsty so I am not getting as much run off anymore. I will be upping water / feed today. Will move to bloom in a week or two once stretch is nearing end.

Walleyeguy Cheese seems to have stalled in growth. Lemon is starting to stretch. Water uptake has increased in both plants. Still dealing with humidity issues and exhaust fan is losing suction again. Might have to replace filter. Thinking it may be time to do weak solution flush and clean the water system as I will be switching to bloom nutes soon. Added the last light which will boost red.

Walleyeguy Did flush and switched to bloom nutes early last week. Going to update last week to reflect this. Lemon ak has started full stretch mode. Started to train it last week now have most of tops even and will let it grow from here with no more training. Except maybe side branches. Cheese is farther behind It got dried out and I think I failing pump was problem so replaced it when I did flush and cleaned watering system. Also turned on last light so 2 mars sp 250 and advanced platinum xml are on.

Walleyeguy Have a trim to bottom branches on lemon. Cheese is slowly starting to stretch. Way more leafy and smaller in size. Still seeing leaf issues. Added more water per day to cheese. Done training lemon. Will see what cheese does this week. Started a lemon ak in solo cup an outdoor grow. Not sure if I will do a diary on it though as I wont be taking care of it once it leaves tent.

Walleyeguy Adding some more height over last week. Buds are fattening up now and more tightly packed together. Cheese is starting to catch up. Seeing some salts or mould forming on fabric pots.

Walleyeguy Started to see lots of salts coming through the fabric pots this week. Also some nute burning at tips and calcium def. spots showing on lemon ak. Going to do a weak solution flush today a week earlier than expected. Lemon AK is fattening up nicely now. Cheese seems to be about a week behind and more stunted but otherwise looks healthy. Not sure how much is Genetics and how much is just differences in how it it is reacting environment and nutes. Low humidity has been issue the whole grow. We are now finally get some rains and crops are starting to grow in area so humidity should start to come around but at wrong time lol. Lemon AK will get about another week of Bid Bud Coco then switch to Over Drive. So about 4 weeks till harvest Cheese will probably be 2 weeks more of big bud then switch to OD. So 5 weeks till harvest. Starting a Dos Si Do and White Widow both photos as I have alot of space and light not being used by these two plants.

Walleyeguy Lemon is now on overdrive. Buds are fat on lemon now and hairs going orange. Trichromes are swelling. Still mostly clear. In a week or two I will be flushing I suspect. Cheese is behind and buds are not chunking up yet. All hairs are white still. No time line on this one yet.

Walleyeguy Lemon looking like it close. No more weight being put on. Trichromes looking good. Some fox tailing. Probably flushing this week Cheese is still white pistols but not putting on weight anymore. I hoping a couple weeks Both are getting nutes dropped.

Walleyeguy Last pics of lemon started to harvest today. Nice fat buds. Will start posting harvest pics soon. Cheese has great smell but slow to mature. Gonna give it a good trim tomorrow.

Walleyeguy Nice fat buds, Good harvest size. Nice smell. Very happy with the result. Fast buds are by far my favorite Auto flowers. The yield is great.

Walleyeguy Lemon harvested and Jarred 6 jars. Can't wait to try. Cheese is still showing white pistils. But I think it is also fox tailing. Been warm here lately and temps been up to 27 and 28. I started flush so will harvest this week.

Walleyeguy Got some mold in main bud. This plant was overly leafy. Even after multiple trims. The buds were big but leafy with leaves squished between buds. This was just first phase of harvest. Going to give it another few days to mature smaller buds that were covered.
