well... imma bout to have some new piks of my severely stunted taiga lady...
its sorta strange... i am thinking i "shocked" the auto trait outta her... unless she really isnt an auto...reason i am saying this is simple... she is 24 days old from sprout... sh has shown no signs of sex at all... she may just be a late bloomer, but in theory, if trimmin the root ball drastically before showing sex on an auto shocks it to the point of waiting to flower then wouldnt that allow a possible window to (a) veg a lil longer (if she makes it past the shock) (b) once vegged out more, take clones, root them, then trim their root ball back to hardly nothin before or at first signs of sex... i dunno.. this is far fetched thinking for sure, but just sorta postin it out there... a hypothesis i have based on observation... thats all
...
her root has slowly worked its way to the bottom of the cup... i replaced the peat pucks with air, and a foam strip i found... i wrapped the strip around the stem till it fit securely in the cup.... i then emptied out the contents of the peat puck and had the outside then liner left of the puck... i filled the liner up with perilite, placed it inside another home made netcup i have made, and topped it off with loose perilite...
i am starting to germ a green o matic seed by greenhouse... i am gonna place that seed in the perilite experimental cup to see how it does once i have a suffecient tap root ...
all in all, most of this post was off topic, but it dealt with autos and one of my autos i the cage... oh well, we live and we live... and life still goes on
