27 Days from seed and all three are Female (from feminised Attitude seedpack) :hump:
The only issue i have with them so far is that the lower fan leaves have become yellow while the other leaves are still very healthy, so im not sure if this is normal or not.
Feel free to comment on what the yellowing of the fan leaves is, although im pretty sure its not nute burn as its just localised to the lower set of leaves.

Nobody got any idea what those yellowing leaves means?
Should i just wait for them to die, or should i remove them?

I have a newbie nute question.
Now that they have plenty of budding areas on them Im assuming its time to start adding the Bloom nutes. So far they have only had veg nutes once every three waterings due to the sensitivity of the diesel ryders.
So the question is, do i switch to the bloom nutes, or do i also give them veg nutes at the same time?

just give them bloom nutes thats all. at least to my understanding.

also my lower leaves turned yellow too, and i dont think its nute burn, i think it might actually be the opposite. not enough nitrogen in the soil. but it could also be that the pot is small. those are my guesses.

also are these autoflowering?

Well its day 50!, As a first time grower i expected them to be dead by now, but they are still kicking :lol:
For the genetics of the Diesel ryder I seem to have 3 variants, the first has grown nicely and ended up quite even, the 2nd though stayed really short in comparison to the other two. However plant 3 ended up looking a bit odd, its got a streatched stem and has grown odd shaped almost deformed buds, All three plants were grown in exactly the same conditions all the way from sprout to here.

I grew these in a very cheap set up, I just got a bag of organic soil, 1 hps lamp and gave it mainly tap water with unknown PH, the journal ended kind of abruptly after the harvest....you can probably guess why. :weed:

hah, what was your yield like? how tall were the plants when u harvested?
I did not weigh it out as Im not a commercial grower, but the plants were between 12 and 15 inches in height at time of harvest. On the plus side, out of the 10 fem seeds I had so far i have had 4 out of 4 turn out to be female so a great success rate on them so far. I currently have another one growing but the yield on the diesel ryder is never going to be huge due to its genetics. Its a nice smoke though and I would always reccomend having at least one auto growing as there just so damned easy.
