    Nice job! I'm thinking of growing these so I'll be following along :bigjoint::bigjoint::bigjoint:

    Pineapple Express struggling

    Most welcome. Lifting the pot is the best way to see if she needs water. It she needs water she will be noticeably light. Letting her get fairly dry before watering again is good as it allows oxygen into the roots. For me the biggest learning curve was learning when to water. Good luck...

    Double Grape by Mephisto Genetics

    Looks good. DG is on my list of strains to try. How does she take nutes?

    She is over watered. I wouldn't dim the light.

    Mephisto Alien Vs Triangle

    I harvested 2 plants at 77 days and the other 2 at 80. They will hang for at least 7 days. I just cut and hang...no trim until after drying. They take longer to dry that way. If you ever wondered why your weed doesn't have smell or flavor...it's sometimes due to drying too quickly. I check...

    LED Help: Should I be using both veg and bloom switch?

    I start seedlings off with a little light and then increase it. I would follow the manual instructions. Definitely both on when she's well into flower.

    Should I Defoliate these Autos?? Huge Super Dense!! Exp grower req I'm a newbie

    Trim out all the lower "peach fuzz" as it's never going to be anything worthwhile. I found this pic on the web. It's a classic lollipop. Leave the bigger fan leaves that are slightly above that lower zone.

    Should I Defoliate these Autos?? Huge Super Dense!! Exp grower req I'm a newbie

    I have defoliated and here's my take: some plants like it (mostly photos) and some hate it. Defol seems to work well when you are growing a familiar strain that you know can take the stress and still thrive. All strains have their own traits though. Some autos can probably take it...but a lot of...

    Mephisto Alien Vs Triangle

    Here they are at 11 weeks and almost ready for chop. I'll chop on Friday when they are at day 80. As always...AvT is a very straight forward, easy grow. I fully expect 1LB from these 4. They each have a prime cola and 10-12 satellite nugs that are hard as a rock. No popcorn. Giddy up..

    Too much cfm?

    You are welcome. The term ACH is common in industrial filtration and ventilation. I work in industrial ventilation, so ACH is something I use everyday. You provide exchange air to provide fresh source of air. ACH isn't really about cooling. That air needs to exit the grow space and be replaced...

    Info on Mephisto seed drops soon.

    Best thing is to leave it alone. If you pry off the outer husk the inner one seems to lock up. Just spritz it with water and keep everything damp. The shell will eventually fall off on its own.

    Cool. Definitely share pics. I haven't tried Night Owl yet but I probably will at some point.

    Info on Mephisto seed drops soon.

    I hear good things about Ethos auto seeds. I might give them a shot.

    Info on Mephisto seed drops soon.

    I was worried that they were done last year but they seem to have been re-tooling. Dinafem were great, but I think they are done. They were right behind Mephisto. I don't see any contenders to Mephisto in the auto world at the moment.

    Info on Mephisto seed drops soon.

    I grew Rocbud Passion Punch and Purple Bastard Eater. Both are great. If Mephistio was 9/10 then I would call RocBud a solid 7 and Dinafem an 8. I really like RocBud but Mephisto has 10 - 12 years under their belt and have solid established lineage. I never tried Dutch Passion. Do you...

    Mephisto are in a class by themselves in the world of autos.

    Leaving town for 4 days. What to do with plants?

    Hi all...I have four Alien Vs Triangle autos that are 8 weeks. They are healthy and growing in 3 gallon plastic pots with FFOF. I water by hand. I have to leave town for 4 days. I'm thinking of drenching them before I leave and putting lights on 12/12 instead of 24/0 where they are now. My...

    Northern Lights Auto

    Me too. I've experimented with transplanting and I lollipop them, but I haven't messed with topping and training..mainly out of fear I'll stunt the growth. Looks like you have it down though.
