So I never set out to get much on my first grow.

I didn't bother doing a journal as I'd expect too much criticism for my failings :D

Anyhow. I harvested today and from 2 plants got 795grams wet.
I'm planning to drop the weight a third by slow drying before jarring up.

Am massively suprised!!

Some answers to ya questions.

11 weeks total run time.
Breeder is 'Auto' Cheese Pounder
20/4 lights
Vegged under T5
Flowered under 600 watt HPS
Coco Coir/Perlite
Air pots
Fed the range of Bio-Biz nutes
Temps averaged 28 day / 23 night
Humidity stayed constant at 45%

Battled with yellowing leaves throughout, suspect N def going into flower that I never quite corrected. Didn't get overly orse though which was promising.

Yeah mate... yellow leaves cannot be evaded with autos. In all my grows i have had leaves yellow off from the base from as warly as 35 days old and they just end up dead or falling off. Still all growth towards canopy and flowers is fine.

Odd... my autos haven't had any leaves turning yellow. Just a few burnt spots from over feeding lol
This one I harvested the main cola yesterday as it was ready but the rest of the plant wasn't.

Edit: the main cola had leaves turning yellow though, but was mostly from my lack of cal/mag feedings early on that just deteriorated over weeks. They were bronzing/brown spotting and dying.

You got a journal on here? Interested to see what you'll yield.

I'm just starting my first Grow with Auto-flowering Fem Jack Herer from Crop King. I'm going to read up on them. If anyone has some tips.......I'd appreciate it.

I want to grow it with some Early Vixen which isn't auto-flowering. How does that work as far lighting periods for Flowering?

I would dry them out alot more than 1/3. White mould sucks!!! Check out the harvesting and curing forum.

Nice grow man! Beautiful looking buds, what breeder are they from?

Don't get over excited about the wet weight, you're gonna lose about 75% in the drying/curing process, which should bring you a little over 2 ounces
Whoa whoa, I doubt he will loose over 700 grams of weight in the drying process. At most he will lose 75%, so divide 795 by 4, which equals 198 grams. Close to 7 ounces, not 2.

This is close too correct.
If you agree he will loose 75% of weight, than saying he will be left with close to seven ounces is correct, as he would have just over 7 ounces......Which is technically close to 7 ounces ( just over 7 is still close to 7 lol).
