Ah ok, I was confused by your wording. Thanks everyone for the great input and following me on this quest.

Hopefully I will not let you guys down. I am more worried about letting myself and my family down lol. A little weed goes a long way around here.

Ah shit clone strength nutes seems to be borderline nutrient burn at this stage. I have 2 plants with leaves curling in a little but no damage and 2 that have a little burn going on.

The pics suck I don't know if it can be seen. Just waiting on the RO water to change them out.

The overall crop is doing good though. The plants stagger down in height the further away from the tent door. I believe this is because they get changed by row daily and the row closest is first to be changed.

These ones for breeding popped. Was worried for a min but they all popped above the cork. One still has a shell and is just above. Going to give it a day before I assist it.

Going to get pics of each bucket up later tonight.

Edit: deleted crappiest pics and typos.

Good stuff man I always do autos for a mid season crop kind of like a light dep without having to pull the tarp I have 100 nl's to get started on the 20th
Your dead on right about letting them go 11-12 weeks they always say 8 but usually it's about a month of veg then about 2 to flower. Still 90 days is short

Here some old pics of my nl in 10 gallon pots some people said it was too much soil at first for autos but they still filled it in and I got some 5 foot little baby monsters.

Good luck on ur auto grow!

Thanks, and nice plants.

Very excited to be growing autos. Its like starting growing all over again. Lots to learn and many kinks to be worked out.

Its good to have a change up to stay motivated. Can't wait to try some ruderalis hybrid buds.

Hoping these girls take right off. I am seeing progress every day since they got a little shot if nutes. Lowering nutes by 1/4th though to slow up the nutrient burn.

I have a digital cam, I just need to pick it up. Should have some better pics then. Need to get my hands on a humidifier also. Hopefully will have both by tonight.

Flushing the plants, I think it was too early for even weak nutes. Going to wait for them to show lack of nutes before I start another feeding.

What I though was damage starting on the lower leaf may be the old nute burn damage. I just havent seen the plants and they grew new nodes.

Won't know for certain though until some time passes. Have a lot of work to do tonight, so much for coming home early and relaxing lol.

I will have an update tomorrow. The plants are still showing good growth so thats a plus. Definately checking plugs before I leave the growroom and house again.

Its 13&14 says from the seeds sprouting out of the corks, seeing some decent growth. Hopefully these recent mishaps are just a test to my willpower lol.

The plants have been flushing for 2 days now, going to give them light nutes again soon. Not sure how long to flush for but if its a deficiency harming the plants I don't want to wait too much longer.

Been fighting to keep humidity up. Have a fan on an open bucket of water and misting with RO water.

Despite the recent problems, growth is still doing good. The sick plants seem to have the best growth. Stayin in the fight.

Looking to pot my breeding plants soon, they really need it. Just been busy. Might go soil with them.

Id do soil, less maintenance and that means more attention to spend with the ladies

Hi everyone,

Sorry for the really late update, been trapped in the evils of my mind for the last few weeks. Its been a very turbulent to start the year off. My niece was murdered by a junkie downstate at the same time we were celebrating my daughters birthday.

My plants stunted from a root rot so I broke the golden rule and transplanted them to soil. 90 percent of the roots were dead and washed off. I figured the only way for them to live was to transplant them. I couldn't put them back in hydro without a tea and the ability to monitor them.

I lost a week of crucial growth but they are back and stretching pretty fast. I am giving the majority of them atleast one more week of veg nutes. 2 of the Pineapple Gum showed nuts and the Jackmatics are not in bud mode like the rest. Probably a side effect of the transfer.

I was offered a good job to spite the really bad shit that has been happening. So I should have the money to move out of the hood within the next few months or invest in something larger scale.

Here are the girls, sorry about the coloring of the pics. Using 2 hps and an mh now. In natural lighting they are a very healthy looking green. I am happy with them, I can't even believe they survived. One of the Jacks has an iron deficiency but getting it corrected. Light just kicked on so I woke the girls up with some fresh water.

Have a cool mist humidifier now, seems to keep the room nice. Around 78 degrees and 40 percent humid. Plan on ordering more seeds and getting a rotation going. Not sure about breeding now with how busy I am. Soil really cuts out the maintenance time this is my first time using soil. Its 2/3 fox farm ocean and 1/3 happy frog potting soil and my hydro nutes seem to be working just fine.
