Nice growing. It seems that you are handling your problems fairly well. Keep it up. I'm subbed for the rest of the grow. How long has has your auto ww been growing? I have 4 growing now. Also by pyramid seeds.
20"x36"x60" Tent - 150W LED.

OK my bad I see Jan. 15th. How much longer you think shell take? The reason I ask is she's supposed to be a 60 day strain. I usually give 5 to 10 extra days from breeders time. But yours should be on about 70 days now.

Hi, thanks!
Yes, it was supposed to be a short time strain, that's one of the main reasons for me to buy autos and short flowering time autos, but mine are RoyalQueenSeeds and they seem to have updated their website to increase those times, or better specify that the total time from seeds to harvest is around 3 months. ( pretty similar to a regular photo plant vegged for 2 weeks + 2 weeks transition + 8 weeks of flowering if you ask me )
- Flowering time 7-8 weeks
- Harvest month 10-12 weeks after planting

Update:
- Pot is way lighter, plant keeps consuming water normally but I may expect a decrease in water absorption due to the decrease in leaves.
- Yellowing and spotting seem to have stopped, I cutted all yellow and rusty leaves, leaving as much of the green healthy leaf as I could.
- Lowered the lamp a couple of inches because I now don't need to use the entire area.
- I think this plant can go another 3-4 more weeks.
- I'm sure it will yield 60g+ dry.
- The AK buds were at 32g last night, no stems. I think they may still dry up a little more despite the main stems being already making crack when bended.
- After 2 weeks drying, the first buds I cut from the AK still taste and smell like green-acid mango, and the flavor and smoke smell is really sweet. The smoke or taste wasn;t like this in the past and I think it may be thanks to the dry koolbloom.

O OK why was I thinking it was from pyramid seeds? Must've been high. But your girls look good. Never grew anything from royal queen. How would you rate their genetics so far? I have a ww auto from pyramid seeds. Three of four have showed sex at 21 days or so. So far, so good. Growing tall just a lanky plant with quite a bit of length between nodes. But very vigorous growth. Very top heavy. So much so I'm having to hold the stem up with floss. I'll show you a pic if you'd like. I grew a ww auto from dinafem last year and it was very potent smoke. Loved it.

Time for an update:
The yellowing continued, seems that in soil PHUp doesn't act inmediately after you use it but days after. I have been flushing for a couple of days to lower the PH. Yesterday I flushed for 2nd day in a row because I got tired of flushing on day 1, so I continued on day 2..
I stopped using CS a few weeks ago, I think I used it for about a week or less, and the 2 mini-buds I sprayed seem to be growing male sacks... will keep an eye on them.
I noticed that when the yellowing was getting worse, the odor was low, today the odor is again crazy sweet and smelly and I assume it has resumed good production. also will keep and eye on it and maybe I will flush more a bit tomorrow.. to put you up to date, I used like a 1/4 bottle of PHup the first day because the runnoff continued to say it was below 5, then, the day after, the PH was crazy high..

How much water are you running through those plants when you flush? Usually soil is a great oh buffer, I've never once tested my ph when I do soil runs, try putting 10 - 15 times the water as their is soil. I would also check to see if the mix you are using has any garden lime.

Hi Newto MJ, 3 times the pot size each day. The plant is indoors and I have a hard time just running water on it, I had to do it very slowly, 3L at the time, around 10 times each day I flush.
I flush until the runoff comes clear and I'm able to measure the PH on a liquid test, still waiting for PH stripes to arrive and a digital PH meter for the next grow.
The soil doesn't had anything on it, at the beginning it was fine, then it turned too acid and I added too much PHup..

Update:
I harvested a couple of top small colas and I will probably harvest most of the rest in around 1 week from now.
The male sacks are maturing, I think I should bag them tomorrow.
One of the seedlings is having troubles coming out, the other one seems to be stretching.

Update:
78g from the WW. The AK is long gone except for one of the tops that I saved for curing it properly. Smelled it last night and it smells really strong like mango ( Brazilian ). The WW smells and tastes really fruity, but I cant define the taste/smell yet. It is like tuttifrutti candy, sweet but I can't define the aroma.
I have another WW with 2 weeks now. Only 1 because the other seed had troubles and I've been having troubles germinating my seeds for 2 weeks. None is popping out I think may be because I no longer was storing them in the fridge so I put them back in the fridge yesterday and today I put another seed in a napkin to see it that works.
The remaining of the WW, around 5 buds, lays in the backyard now maturing some auto seeds.
