So this is "Part B" of my first grow. Original thread here: https://www.rollitup.org/t/long-veg-time-maybe-bad-genetics-or-not-autos-should-i-flip-to-12-12.981109/
Just a recap: I planted four seeds of a strain known as Candy Cane Auto from Crop King seeds that I had bought 2 years ago, before really doing much research. The four plants had not begun flowering by day 51, so I switched to a 12/12 light schedule, and kept that up until harvest.
It is now 20 days later, and two plants seem to be revegging. I will use these two plants for this grow. You may ask why reuse two failed autos? Good question. As it turns out, I made some bubble hash from the trim/larf from those plants, and it is kick ass. The bud is curing, and the flowers from these two plants have a distinct citrus smell, with just a hint of fuel/diesel. Not the frostiest bud I've seen, but still pretty good trichome production. I don't have any immediate need for bud - the last grow provided enough material to last nearly two years - but I want to try a few different things not done in the first grow:
I tend to make rather pic heavy posts, once there is something to actually see, haha.
Anyone wishing to provide constructive criticism is welcome to post in this thread.

I don't have any immediate need for bud - the last grow provided enough material to last nearly two years - but I want to try a few different things not done in the first grow:
1. Improve canopy management, including a scrog.
2. Want to learn how to clone
3. Use colloidal silver to produce pollen for later use. (CS not STS since STS or progenitor chemicals are somewhat hard to come by in Canada.)
So I consider this grow to be primarily a learning experience. I grow for personal use/enjoyment, and maybe to send a bit to my adult kids.2. Want to learn how to clone
