Hi everyone,

I’m new to the cannabis world, so this is my first grow. This is Royal Dwarf from Royal Queen Seeds in Spain. I chose it because I wasn’t sure what would happen in my small tent and I didn’t want things to get out of control. (It seems to be working.)

I can only post some super hipster pictures right now, but if you want to see specific parts of the plant, let me know, and I’ll also shoot for clarity instead of being hip from here on out. ;-)

As of today (Sunday, September 27th, 2015) I would say I’m a few weeks away from harvest. But that’s just what I’m “feeling,” haha.

GLOSSYDONKEY’S ROYAL DWARF DETAILS:

(Here’s a link to the breeder’s website: Royal Dwarf)

Air Circulation

Hydroponic System

Lighting
Apollo Horticulture GL60LED Full Spectrum 180W LED Grow Light

Nutrients
All General Hydroponics right now. (Why get complicated?) Here’s everything:
-FloraMicro, FloraGro, FloraBloom, FloraBlend, Liquid KoolBloom, FloraKleen, RapidStart, Floralicious Plus, and CALiMAGic.
-I was spraying some nice homemade compost tea in August, but it makes a sugary mess of everything in your tent, and kind of mucks up the medium, even though I’m sure the plants love it.

Other Information
Being an autoflowering variety I tried to stay pretty hands off. I always made sure to gently push fan leaves down to give the flowers room to grow, and did some very careful bending of the stems—well, careful until the Gorilla tape was needed.

You'll notice in later pictures I had to tie down the top and gently form it into a curve because it was growing into the light. I guess you'd call that some pretty makeshift LST, but it seems like it worked.

I keep the pH floating between 6-6.5. It's pretty stable right now.

I have no idea what the yield will be, but if I get a C+ on this grow I'll be very happy.

Cheers.

Done and done! And thanks for the welcome.

I have a bigger tent next door to this one that's growing a few plants in soil– I have a Auto Great White Shark that's looking really pretty. I'm just letting her grow naturally because I'm taking a little horticulture course online and wanted to see it grow without me gettin' all grabby.
