Alien x Triangle auto comparison by The Vault

Mephisto has bred the shitty ruderalis they started with years ago , so far out of their strains that the only trait still remaining is the "autoflower" trait in itself. Originally their Rudy was 5%-7% THC with low to nonexistent terp levels. They've back-crossed different photos then selected the top tier progeny that still carries the trait to auto. They went through 50 different OG strains / cuts to find the best, settling on the Alien OG from Cali Connect and they're Triangle Kush (not sure where from) the actual genetics are Ripleys OG X Triangle Kush. Guessing this explains their high numbers on an auto :)

Here are some of the pics that I took a little while ago. It is my understanding that this strain LOVES cal-mag. Based on the pics, does anyone feel that I should start using cal-mag or do you think that Ripley is ok without it?
She's not the biggest plant I've ever seen but that is because I keep her really trimmed...probably shouldn't trim her at all but I am trying to follow the Phototron directions for pruning just to see how she will turn out. I have two seeds left and will not trim the next one at all, if I can help it, and will be using the complete line of Dutch Pro, instead of having to substitute for things that I could not afford when the grow first started. Any and all comments and criticisms are appreciated!

Thanks for looking and HAPPY GROWING!

They are looking good !!!!!!! don't worry they will fatten up the closer they get to the end. I have found that auto's don't care much for trimming, topping, or transplanting they do well with LST but not much else. This plant does very well with out much help, i only feed mine a molasses water mix for the whole duration and have had friend tell me it some of the best stuff they have smoked.

I'm about to hit mine with their second Epsom salt feeding. I feed them one time before. I'm in dwc and showing a mag deficiency.

I'm on day 66 and plan on running them out to day 100. I might hit them with more Epsom in a couple weeks if they need it.

I'm in dwc tho.

Am I the only member here to run these in hydro?

thanks for clearifying that. I feel better now.
I should clarify further by stating that when I say yellowing, you may have leaves turning yellow along the edges/margins followed by browning/crisping. As well as yellowing of the veins while the rest of the leaf will still be green. Usually Mag Def. Cal def will show as yellow then brown spots on the leaves. Both usually cause small distorted growth of the newest leaves. Just battled a huge CalMag def caused by my once good well water lol. So much calcium carbonate in the water which is extremely hard for plants to uptake was locking my gals out. Foliar fed with Prro-Cal for two weeks and went to RO water with some CalMag added and Boom!

no I don't think I have that. Occasionally I get weird blotches on the leaves toward the top of the plant but that's generally after I give her Roots Organics Bloom Enhancer but I cut those leaves off and the blotches are generally by the light so I assume that the light and nutes are burning the plant a little after I feed her the Roots Organics Bloom Enhancer which is NOT a Dutch Pro product. I'll post pics of what I'm talking about if it happens again.As always, thanks for your input GrowJahsGift
