Here we go again... State the obvious why don't you...
There is a time and place for autos, they weren't made to replace photo strains.
Extra space in veg rooms/mother rooms makes for a variety of smoke in between your main grows.

Sorry for the late post, but kinda got a little ill. So I will post what I had to post where I had left off and then I will make a second of Todays activities and Update.But From 6/7 through 6/9 there are no photo's. But Todays will be in the next post.
On 6/6 the white Sharks were fed a tea that I had brewed up and have recieved water once with Cal-mag+ on 6/8.
The Snowryders on 6/6 and 6/ 8 just got water with Cal-mag+.

Looking good brotha! Nice and healthy

Well, where to start, the Snowryders are looking pretty healthy still. Female (#4), got the light dropped on her today and lost a few leaves and a branch or 2, She was and still is the tallest of the little ladies @ 5 3/4", #1 is 4 1/4" tall, and #2 is 5" tall, or should I say short.
The male however #3 is 10" tall now, he has been placed elsewhere for the time being until he drops his pollen on a piece of paper for me to collect, use, and store fro later backcrossing to the (White Shark x Snowryder) seeds that I hope to produce. He is looking healthy and strong, he has also stretched his legs a bit.
The White Sharks, well, I gave them a upgrade today, probably not the best idea, but did it anyways. When I transplanted them into the 3 gallon pots with subcools supersoil it was 3 weeks before I switched the lights to 12/12. So the Notrogen and other nutrients were already used up and started to fade when I was sick. So I decided to get them each a 6.5 gallon pot, with a bit more supersoil and some Roots organic to top them off. The roots looked very healthy and I sprayed them really good with MycroGrow Soluble, my microbial/bacterial/fungal product. Then they were placed back into their home where they will stay untill done, no more easy watering for me. They were given 1 gallon each of water pH'd to 6.3 with Apple Cider Vinegar, and a half gallon each of the same but the pH was 6.4. The runoff in the tray was around 5.4-5.5 pH. I believe that will be fine becasue of the Supersoil mix. Note the supersoil was mixed in late March and early May, so it has had time to cook and cool a bit.
I sure hope they turn out now, they are now 17" tall at the top of the tallest tops and around 15"-16" for the rest of the tops. The smaller, skinnier flowers will be the ones to get pollenated in a few weeks.
Hop you like the new pics.
P.S. the pics. that are labeled with their sex day was not taken that day, ALL photo's were taken today.

Thanks, I hope the Sharks survive the transplant.
I just finished supercropping them as well here are photo's of them.
I know they are not auto's, but they are in my breeding project, and they will be getting pregnant by my male Snowryder.

Thanks SoA ll Asi,
Yours are looking great themselves.
I do believe after this run I will try 2 gallon pots under the 4' 6 bulb T-5 from the get go, and maybe run 6 of one strain. I have Auto Assassin and Russian Rocket Fuel both from Short Stuff Seeds. But after seing what 215medicineman on utube harvested with his last grow with RRF, I might go with them.

They make a 4' six bulb T5? Also in regards to the RRF, you guys talking about the bushy high yield pheno? That thing looks beast!

Yep, 30,000 lumens, 324 watts. That is what the White Sharks are under.
They make the 4' models with 2,4,6,8, or 12 bulbs. They may even make them with 10 as well but not sure on that one.
Well, you never really know what type of pheno you are getting unless it is a true IBL bred strain. You may always get some variations, the more stable the less pheno variations. But yeah, that RRF according to description.
But if you haven't already, look at some of the latest vidz of (215medicineman) on utube, he was growing RRF with a few other Auto's using 600 HPS lights for his lighting. Amazing weight and growth. During veg he used full nute strength, and during flower he cut it to 1/4 or 1/2 bloom nutes can't remember what nutes or exact amount for flower but, he does state that in one of his last few vidz. So don't quote me on the flower strength check it out on the vidz. This guy Rocks the Auto's!!!
So hopefully my RRF's may look like his, and not train so bushy, I will start 6 in 2 gallon pots for those on my next grow after my current, I will also be hoping to make seeds from those as well and save the pollen for any possible breeding in the future or to help stabalize the seeds from harvest and backcross the females of those.

I ordered 10 pack regular seeds of the 3 different strains from Short Stuff, so I do not know, until I grow. the only way to be sure of a certain pheno is from cloning and through different breeders selling the same name but different characteristics.
Get on utube and watch his (215medicineman) vidz already, and you will see for yourself the phenotype(s) he was growing, and various strains of auto's. I really do not want to speak for others, I will gladly pass on their info. though, ie. their utube channel.

Dude.... I know.... I was asking what phenos he had that made you want RRF. I saw the Bushy pheno in a thread once and it was impressive

They looked like christmas trees, with massive buds, NOt really bushy because of the height it had to it. Massive side branch cola's allmost the size of the main cola.
The phenotype had NO influence to the reason of my selecting the RRF to grow next, it was the overall Grow and Harvest.

Things are looking great today. Everybody was fed a little molasses and microbes in their water today.I did do some lolipopping on White Shark #2, it is the only one I can reach now to do so, besides I do think that #1 is o.k, it is missing the top 2 branches from me breaking them awhile back. The supercropping has done wonders for the canopy on #2 as you will see in the picture.
I do have my Eye on the flowers to pollenate on White Shark #2, they will be the smallest of the branches that have flowers at the top.
My male Snowryder started to drop a little pollen yesterday and I will wait maybe 5-7 days longer until I collect and pollenate tche chosen ones.
The female Snowryders are doing well themselves, sorry about the lowlight on the pictures today, I should of taken of my polarized filter first since they weren't under the lights when taken.
Enjoy
