I detail every step along the way, from nutrients and lighting to temperature and humidity. Instead of going into your grow blind and hoping for the best, use this Triple G Automatic week-by-week grow guide for the best results.

  • Lights: MIGRO 200+
  • Ventilation: TT Silent-M100
  • Filter: Prima Klima filter PK 100/125
  • Fan: Oscillating Koala Fan X 2
  • Humidifier: Beurer LB 45
  • Soil: Biobizz Light Mix
  • Pot: 11l Air-Pot
  • Seed: Royal Queen Seeds

Triple G Automatic Grow Report: Seedling Stage (Week 1)

Every grower feels excitement at the start of a grow! Check out the steps I took to ensure success during this first period of the growing cycle.

Triple G Grow Report
  • Germination: I took a simple approach with Triple G Automatic and decided to sow seeds directly into their final containers. While this can result in reduced germination rates, it saves time and effort if successful.
  • Lighting: I suspended my MIGRO 200+ light from the ceiling of the grow box. I adjusted the hanging wires to create a distance of 13.7 inches between the rim of the container and the light. I kept the light running for 24 hours each day after the shoot first appeared.
  • Growing medium: I filled my 11l Air-Pot halfway with 5l of Biobizz Light Mix. Then, I added the following nutrients and biologicals to maximise mineral uptake and reduce the chances of soil pathogens taking hold:
    • RQS Easy Boost Organic Nutrition: 1.8 oz
    • RQS Bat Guano: 2.5 oz
    • RQS Rhizobacter: 0.4 oz
    • RQS Mycorrhiza Mix: 0.2 oz

      After adding the amendments, I thoroughly mixed them into the growing medium. I then added a further 4l of soil into the container and mixed it again. Finally, I added the final 1l of soil onto the surface without mixing to avoid seedling nutrient burn. I then watered the growing medium to the point of saturation, created a 1.2 inches hole in the center of the surface, and inserted my Triple G Auto seed before lightly covering it up.
  • Environment: During germination, I recorded a consistent temperature of 23°C and a humidity of 60%.
  • Plant status: By the end of week 1, my seedling looked strong and healthy, and showed no signs of damping off or legginess. It stood around 2.3 inches tall and had developed its first set of true leaves.

Triple G Automatic Grow Report: Vegetative Stage (Weeks 2–4)

My seedling looked healthy, vibrant, and ready to take on the veg stage. Over the next three weeks, my plant packed on some serious size and appeared to get healthier by the day. Check out my strategy for raising such a vigorous specimen below.

Week 2

Triple G Grow Report

The initial growing medium had enough nutrients and soil biology to see my plant through the entire vegetative phase. However, I decided to supplement this foundation with additional organic nutrients to drive growth even further.

  • Lighting: I kept the lights running for 24 hours each day to drive photosynthesis as much as possible. I maintained a distance of 13.7 inches from the light and the top of the young plant.
  • Nutrients: I kept things very simple here. I used RQS Easy Grow Booster Tablets to make a batch of fertiliser. I added half a tablet (1.0.2 oz) into 1.5 litres of water regulated to a pH of 6.0, and applied it on the fourth day of week 2.
  • Environment: I managed to maintain an average temperature of 24°C and relative humidity of 55%.
  • Plant status: By the end of week 2, my plant had reached a height of 11.2 inches and developed multiple sets of luscious, thick-fingered fan leaves.

Week 3

Triple G Grow Report

Week three came around fast. My plant started to grow even faster and developed a healthy dark-green color and solid turgor.

  • Lighting: I continued a lighting schedule of 24 hours on each day, as my plant responded so well to this regimen in the previous week. I readjusted the position of my lights to maintain a 13.7 inches distance from the top of the canopy.
  • Nutrients: I repeated the same feeding regimen as last week. I administered the same formula on the same day of the week.
  • Environment: Average temperature hung around 24°C, whereas humidity dipped slightly to 50%.
  • Plant status: By the end of week 3, my plant reached a height of 9.4 inches and put out numerous new sets of true leaves. I decided to top my plant to promote lateral growth and more uniform bud sites. I sterilised a pair of Curved Trimming Scissors and topped just below the fifth node (the point at which the branches meet the main stem).

Week 4

Triple G Grow Report

Things continued to cruise along just fine. With no signs of nutrient deficiencies or disease, I was already confident that I’d receive a great yield from this grow.

  • Lighting: I continued to keep the lights on for 24 hours each day.
  • Nutrients: I discontinued any nutrients this week. My plant seemed extremely healthy and I didn’t want to risk inducing symptoms of toxicity. I simply applied 1.5l of pH-regulated water on day four of the week.
  • Environment: Temperatures remained at 25°C and humidity hovered around 45%.
  • Plant status: By the end of week 4, my plant stood at 15.6 inches. At this point, I performed some light defoliation to increase aeration in the canopy and free up energy for the approaching flowering phase.

Triple G Automatic Grow Report: Flowering Stage (Weeks 5–11)

Things started to get even more exciting as the flowering phase started. I noticed the first signs of pre-flowers, and it didn’t take long for the buds to swell up and for my plant to stretch.

Week 5

Step 1

My plant started to shoot up in size during the first week of flowering. To accommodate this energy expenditure, I switched up her nutrient regimen for optimal results.

  • Lighting: I reduced the light cycle to 18 hours on and 6 hours off. I repositioned the light to remain at 13.7 inches above the canopy.
  • Nutrients: I started to apply RQS Easy Bloom Booster Tablets to facilitate flowering. I added 1 tablet into 5l of water and applied it on days 2 and 6 of week 5. I also administered RQS Easy Plus Micronutrients on day 5, adding 1 tablet into 5l of water.
  • Environment: Temperature remained steady at 25°C. I opted to drop the humidity to 40% to reduce the risk of mold formation of new buds.
  • Plant status: After her big flowering stretch, my plant reached a height of 30.4 inches by the end of week 5. All of her leaves and young buds seemed healthy.

Weeks 6 & 7

Step 1

My plant seemed vigorous and vibrant at this stage. She continued to grow rapidly in size, both laterally and vertically.

  • Lighting: I maintained a light schedule of 18 hours on and 6 hours off.
  • Nutrients: I applied RQS Bio Flowering Booster to ensure healthy flower development. I used the following formulas:
    • Thicker Flowers: 0.2ml/l every day during week 6, and 0.3ml/l every day during week 7
    • Bigger Flowers: 1ml/l on day 2 of week 6, and 0.8ml/l during week 7
  • Environment: Temperature stayed steady at 26°C and humidity at 40%.
  • Plant status: By the end of week 7, my plant seemed healthy, and I could see buds starting to really develop. She stood at a height of 37.1 inches.

Week 8

Triple G Grow Report

During week 8, my plant stopped stretching. However, her buds appeared to get bigger and more resinous by the day.

  • Lighting: 18 hours on and 6 hours off.
  • Nutrients: I kept applying RQS Bio Flowering Booster every day using the following quantities:
    • Thicker Flowers: 0.4ml/l
    • Bigger Flowers: 1ml/l
  • Environment: Temperature stayed at 26°C and humidity reduced further to 38%.
  • Plant status: She maintained a size of 37.1 inches. Lower fan leaves started to yellow, while buds increased in size.

Weeks 9, 10 & 11

Triple G Grow Report

I decided to start flushing three weeks prior to harvest. I provided my plant with a solid nutrient regimen during the entire growing cycle and wanted to remove as many residual compounds as possible before harvest to improve the taste of my buds.

  • Lighting: Remained at 18 hours on and 6 hours off for the rest of the flowering stage.
  • Nutrients: I restricted all nutrients and instead applied 2l of water regulated to a pH of 6.0 on days 2 and 6 of the remaining weeks.
  • Environment: Temperature remained at 26°C and humidity at 38%.
  • Plant status: My plant appeared healthy and strong. I defoliated much of the lower canopy during week 10 to direct more energy to the ripening buds. The fan leaves continued to yellow during the lengthy flush.

Harvest (Week 12)

Triple G Grow Report

All the hard work paid off! On week 12, I harvested a total of 4.3 oz of dried flowers. I cut my plant at the base and hung it upside down in the grow box with good air circulation. As soon as the stems felt cracker dry, I removed the buds and trimmed off the sugar leaves. Then, I transferred them to curing jars for 6 weeks.

🌱 Growing Characteristics of Triple G Automatic
