Auto Zamaldelica feminized

[dubi]

Hi @jroadytoady, good progress under the metal halide! Is this your first time with autoflowering seeds?

Autoflowering plants typically start to flower after about 4 weeks, so maximizing growth in their first month of life is vital to getting moderate-sized plants with good yields, rather than small, underdeveloped ones. Personally, I'm not a big fan of growing autoflowering seeds indoors. Perhaps a photoperiod strain like Zamaldelica fem would be a better choice for your setup?

@dubi the tallest put on 6" over the weekend so if full stretch at the moment.

I've grown AF before, but never what I'd consider successfully. I'm using these as my early outdoor crop since we can have 3 mature and 3 vegging outside... which forced me to start a month early inside. They went outside yesterday

Either way, these are doing much better than previous attempts and I'll keep tweaking my process till I get it right

I got two interesting characteristics on my auto Zamaldelica seedlings. One with super thin leaves and one super beautiful three leafed. It's going to be interesting to see how they develope

Nice Chemimbalance, could be that your triploid will yield 1/3 more than normal!

Mine has ~3 Weeks to go.

 

[dubi]

So cute both @Chemimbalance I really liked the Auto Zamaldelica you grew a couple of years ago, hope you get nice expressions this season too! Please, keep us update.

Yours looks promising as well passing mid flowering @regentag

Tricotyledon plants are not necessarily triploid plants. The first case is a change in the symmetric structure of the plant, while the second case means the plant has three sets of chromosomes instead of two. Cannabis is naturally diploid, rarely triploid, and even more rarely tetraploid.

Thank you! I really like this strain and keep coming back for more Im growing 9 plants of it outdoors in Sweden this year and I'll update with some pictures during the season.

Offtopic: I listened to your episodes on The pot cast recently and found it interesting. Keep up the good work!

Auto_zamadelica - two plants in a pot, they grow on compost soil. I don't fertilize my plants, I water them with rainwater. Why these brown leaves? The larger plant's leaves turned brown two weeks ago, the smaller one's starting to turn brown now.
I've never had anything like this before.

 

[dubi]

HI @wuluz regarding the problem you comment: if brown leaves are spongy then its fungus, if brown leaves are dry and crumble then it's lack of macro nutrients.

hi @dubi, yes the leaves are brown and dry. You're right, the larger plant turned brown first because it needed more nutrients...Hmmm
I thought the fan was too strong or the sun burned them.

Hello, I come to present to you my Auto Zamaldelica which is on D-45 today!
It's my first time with a car.
D-30

D-45 today

The first pistils arrived on D-19 but the accumulation of pistils occurred around D-35 so I estimate that I am in the second week of flowering at the moment. I added a good 5 cm of Plagron batmix on day 43 with a dose of bloom booster that day because I saw the fan leaves on the top floor becoming pale, after reflection I wonder if I should not have abstain from this dose at this time, I hope she won't be too angry with me and will still progress! On day 30, she measured 30cm today here she is at 58cm outside the pot, happy with this progress!
The weather is unpredictable here this year, unusually cool for this period...I've just had about two good weeks but next week the temperatures will start to drop again with a max of 20 degrees Celsius, let's hope that this bit of sunshine will help to continue

These have been up out of the soil for 35ish days, mostly been rained on. Gotta love the Welsh weather.

The 2nd One went a bit crazy with the deformed leaf growth, but she seems to be growing out of it just fine n dandy!

Nearly time for a splash of feed I think. I'll run them through with a fish mix a couple of times over the next fortnight then start the bloom feed.

 

[BumSplodgeBrownPants]

These 2 are happy enough.

Going to be quite big plants I think, just starting to show a pistil here and there.

 

[Chemimbalance]

Update on my two weirdos i posted a couple of weeks ago. The triploid seem to do just fine. The thin leafed one looks worse. It looks almost like it suffers from heat stress?

 

[BumSplodgeBrownPants]

They're still going for it. 2 expressions by the looks of them. Still just a few pistils popped up, very thirsty girls.

Hello, here I am for an update we are on day 59 in the first photo and D-60 for the other photos today! After spending two weeks in the rain and not exceeding 20 degrees... some fan leaves yellowed very quickly during the first week since the last update, linked to the addition of the bloom booster I think a little early... but this last week has been better, the heads have resumed their growth with a good slowing down of the yellowing. The smell currently is a mixture of lime and melon. I preferred to leave the yellow leaves on the ground, is this good or should I should I remove them? I also notice some brown spots on the yellowing leaves, is this serious? I suppose it's due to the high humidity of the last few weeks...the next few days are going to be quite hot here with the return of the sun

I would pull out any leaf on the plant that looks yellow, and especially the ones on the surface of the dirt. If a leaf looks like it isn't going to make it, take it out before it makes matters worse, is how i see it.

The trifoliate is a funny fellow ! Haha kind of cute

 

[dubi]

Glad to meet your Auto Zamaldelica @badass-eu It's normal for fan leaves to yellow (especially in potted plants) in the second half of flowering. This is usually a sign that the plant is starting to deplete necessary nutrients from the soil, or it could be due to occasional drought during sunny days in hot climates.
What does her smell suggest to you?

Wow Impressive developement since your 7th June update @BumSplodgeBrownPants
They are indeed loving the weather, rain, soil mix, greenhouse and all your good cares!
