Tomorrow will be the end of 6 1/2 weeks since she sprouted. The packet says it's supposed to go to week 9. But I'm gonna let it go till I see 50% Amber and 50% cloudy trich.
Ill update tomorrow with photos.

She is looking great and bling bling. As always i wish the autos grew would grow MUCH bigger, but ill keep trying. Ill grow the rest of the autos i have left indoors only because i dont have enough outdoor light. So ill just grow regular seeds outdoors.

I started feeding some botanicare cal-mag plus to add some Calcium, magnesium, and iron to the plant. I hope this helps keep the plan from yellowing more. Also I need to start feeding it some bloom food soon. I have been using this bloom food in pix 3. I been using this product but I don't know if I should switch to something else.

Your opinions welcome.

So the big bud has gone through some difficult times recently but I think it's going to pull through in the end. I fed her twice with some bloom food and botanicare cal-mag. And so far I don't think she's getting any worse.
I know I won't get as big of a yield as i would if she was healthier. So since she's supposed to go to 12 weeks flower I'm gonna go ahead let her finish flower all the way to the end. Im gunna look at this like something is better than nothing. And what's there is frosty as all get out.

So she is almost at the end of 7 weeks since it sprouted. The leaves are more yellow in the photo than i real life. Feeding her bloom and cal-mag-iron regularly has helped alot. So far her flowers are making me a happy camper. So in 5 more weeks she should have nice and fat flowes. Im going for 50/50 cloudy/amber trich. So far she looks like she is gunna yield more tan last time. Next time i grow another big bud auto. Ill use an even bigger pot with even more perlite.
I really hope she can keep gowing strong and healthy for the next 5 weeks.

Its about to be the end of week 9. Still plenty clear trch. Yesterday i start the flushing cycle with cold water. What made this one start growing again after a slow down in early flowering was feeding her botanicare (cal-mag-iron) long side the bloom food.

So finally its the 12 week harvest time today.
So this big bud grew well once i started adding the botanicare cal-mag-iron it took off.
The smell is very nice and skunky monkey. It grew big dense and very resinous flowers. She did what i thought autos are supposed to do.
Ill be harvesting tonight. And it doesn't look like I'll have any trimming to do.

So this is the 3nd time growing the big bud auto, while it hasn't growin as big as the last big bud did by 4 weeks. Its still bigger the pixie-styx auto ever had grown the last 3 times ive tried growing it. I think the extra added perlite to the soil as what's making this BB grow biger/better. Looks like I might get a This inside the Yield. I just harvested the last BB and now its dry and needs to be put into jars to cure. And I still have plenty of other autos/exotics to try.

Well things seem to have taken a wrong turn with the food or maybe a ph inbalance. Eather way i hope it can make it to 13 weeks flower. Ill give plain water on the next several waterings to flush out the soil/roots.
