Lowlife White Russian Auto Flowering

The hairs are starting to turn brown but in
no way are they ready.

The leaves surrounding the buds are still
nice and green but they are yellowing from
the bottom up a but too quickly for my liking.

Will take a few pics and post a little later.

Maybe placing them under light bulbs for the
first 3 weeks had come back to haunt me?!?

The buds look like they are 3 week off but
the leaves look as if they are at the end of their
cycle?

Thanks for your help fife...

I wouldn't worry . remember your dealing with an auto flower it's reaction time to everything is quick. Even if you use loose fan leaves let her rippen up she is still alive and doing fine. That yellowing is normal.

Thanks Kook...

Have given a little more feed today so will
see how they are a little later.

I don't want to over feed, so just giving little
by little.


Some good news, the buds appear to be
fattening up a bit

Here we go Kool...

My camera is playing up so excuse the poor quality pics mate.

Not much change to be honest, increased feed seems to have slowed the yellowing, they will be 9 weeks old on Christmas day.

I'm thinking they will need to go to 11 weeks to make up for my mistakes at the start. I will obviously monitor the trics with my scope, but they don't look quite ready as yet.

I think I will continue the feed for the next week or so & then flush with water for the last week.

Opinions welcome...

Thanks guys...

Hoping they will be ready within a week... Checked the trics last night & they were a mixture of clear, cloudy & amber ones.

The buds don't look quite done as there are quite a few white hairs, but the trics never lie or do they?

Will flush for the next week & hopefully chop.

Hi all,

A quick update...

Buds have fattened quite a bit over the last few days & the trics look just about right, maybe 1 more day.

I read somewhere that you should put autos in 48 hr's of darkness before you chop them?

Planning to chop on Wed which will be 1 day before they are 10 weeks old...

My only gripe is that even though the main cola & 95% of the top buds are big and juicy (Which I am
very happy with may I add :~) once again the lower buds are pretty small. I had this on my last grow so I brought
a 250w CFL to hang along side the lower branches but this does not seem to have improved matters?

Is this a common problem or am I doing something wrong?

10 weeks old today & about to have 24-48 hrs of darkness before the chop.

They smell like juicy fruit chewing gum, if anyone remembers them...

Apols once again for the quality of the snaps, my camera is kaput :~(
