That's what me mate's got going now, Pineapple (Photoperiod version). So it'll be interesting to note the differences with yours. His seeds are about two weeks old-ish
the yeild on the auto is quite small compaired to the photo-period once vegged for a good while, but offers quicker turn around....the auto is based on pineapple chunk a barneys photoperiod classic, got some wicked taste from what i've read... i got it cos it looked and sounded funky, wasn't until later i noticed it only runs out about an ounce max

trout exaxtcly how many dayz old are your plants.. nd nice seeds
my plants are 44 days from seed... and counting :-)

just checked the the germing seeds and both have cracked and one is showing a tap root

so this is a round 2 update :-)
 
Can't wait to see how they turn out for you man! I'm gonna grow another two Northern Lights (the right way this time..some how mine had an extended veg time and are now being treated as photoperiods) they just cracked.

yeah i'd heard that nirvana's northern lights auto's were pants ... but i was also told that was 2 yrs ago nearly and that batch were replaced by a second that were true autos

How stinky do u find they are getting with only a few plants?? Outside your growroom i mean
i have taken no precaution to remove the smell i am venting directly into the shed (which stays shut all day), i can smell it a little outside the shed in the open cold air... when i open the door to the shed it smells stronger .... then i open the cab and it is fairly strong. if i was in a shared house or apartment i would seriously consider venting it to the outside of the house (vis a window or any means) and use a carbon filter.

ok so todays inspection proved my worst fears .... after a light feed with nutes after a good flush has resulted in more burns (even worse then bofore IMO.)

so i am withdrawing from any further nute feeds with plants 2 & 3 ... plant #1 seemed to take it like a man ... so i'll gve her 1 more feed when shes thursty.

just about to pot the seedlings if they are ready :-)

Dude, i dont think it is necessary to feed autos nutes ever. I gave mine 1/5 strength and it started to burn... i was like wtf lol. They can get nutes from the soil, thats my new view on them. Just water them bitches.

Dude, flush that thing a couple times in a row with clean water.. pour a gallon into each plant and let it drain... you should def over water it a couple times in the next week

yeah i had planned to just water them from now on .... as you say even the lightest feed burns them, just added the 2 new additions to the cabinet....

Wow you got pistels all over that bitch! Looking awesome bruh :)
I think they'll be just fine though man, mine have been through the wars past week and they're doing just fine. They've been chopped to fuckery with a fallen fan, super cropped as a result, leaves burnt through over stretching to the lamp, knocked over by accident, they've been flooded with humidity so much that the drip tray has been full for two days and won't evaporate AND I've just last night tied a few branches down to level out my canopy. They're thriving mate! Almost like all this jiggery pokery is good for them LoL

Can't believe you got your seedlings potted as well - do you think I should pot-up mine already and give them light? I was going to wait for roots to poke out of the cubes first before the potting up, but I do believe that they should have light as soon as there is green visible.
LoL just answered my own question!

i don't know what to say about your cubes mate i don't really know much about them to be honest ... all i do is germ the seeds ... when the tap root shows about an inch i pop them into seeding soil (not full strength stuff its far too lumpy) ... i put a couple of handfuls of crushed perlite in the soil ... mixed it up and prewatered it before adding the seedlings

lol... yeah you plants must be well strong mate ... you've given em a battering :-) ... but they can take a pounding and come back for more LOL

i'm happy with the big girl... #1 is coming on strong now too ... so could be very happy in a few weeks, just hope they clear the way for the next two soon enough... don't want a traffic jam :-)
