I think u hit it on the head, i need more perilite!!! Bc just about everything else youve stated im currently doing. I also think im gonna use more mycos than i have been, might also add some into soil mix this time too. Im also DIYing some air into reservoir and rootzone(via airdomes). So roots should have plenty of air and water. Thanks for tips driver. I needed that confirmation about my mixure. Was gonna go 60/40 soil/perilte, but since im adding air might go 70/30 or so.

Go with 60/40 mix......especially if your adding a watering system.
Bottom watering/feeding makes a big difference.......keep in mind a plant in flower can use around 1-2gal/day to make a lb of harvest.
Nice job on the harvest!
I'll be following for the Airdomes. Looks like a cool alternative.

Snapped some pics of these mini autos. A waste of energy, really thinking about chopping these hoes. Once the other tent is empty and cleaned, i will transplant seedlings into buckets. Then i think ill plant 2 more autos just to make up for these little bitches. Might try some bottled nutes on them, thinking advanced nutrients ph perfect.
So i shook the hermie blueberry while she's hanging, and a ton of seeds came out of her, so i shook until i didnt hear anymore hit the floor. Shook the orangegasm, just a few fell out. Once again these plants smell great. No hay just straight orange and berries.
Got a new air pump for buckets reservoirs and for air domes im gonna fit in the rootzones. Also got some plant elevators for autos, for better air circulation in rootzones. Also gonna start making my soil mix alot more airy. So gonna pick up some perilite tomorrow. And go ahead and get my mix started so it can cook up a lil. Also got some canna butter cooling down now it cooked for 7 hrs. I used 2lbs of butter with 6.3ozs of frosty trim. Shit should be strong af, i just used 4ozs last time. Gonna make 2 batches tonight, so i can have some for fishing in the morning.


Look at all the seeds on the floor.
I should sell them for $1 each!!!lol

Do you use any myco's?
lol...sounds like your preparing for battle.

Lol hell yeah! Its war!!! Naw i just need to pay attention more to my plants, and start phing a lil more.
Yes i use mycos when transplanting, and sowing seeds. But never added it to the mix in the begining, I'll do it this time. And im gonna use the same mix i used on my best plants, minus the gnats!!!lol I'll make a post with everything i put in. Still gotta get some perilite. Smoked some orangegasm on the way to work, its still kinda moist, but it burned pretty good. Well now im high as giraffe pussy, luckily it looks like an easy night. Also gotta brownie just in case. Lol

Auto update day 35 or so and they are small. The LSD is 14 inches and has some weird leaves and a deep purple color already, shes shot up 4 inches since last time i measured, not bad. Looking at pics there is a small amount of frost. Cant see it with my naked eyes!!! The orion is a dud right now, shes only 7 or 8 inches. I like her structure, she just a dwarf!!! Maybe she'll kick in gear and give me a good stretch. Gonna topdress some bloom nutes. And water in with some recharge next watering. Lowering ph helped with the LSD's leaves.

The seedlings are doing ok. The low humidity has probably stunted them they just wont stretch up. Lights are like 32 inches from them and on full blast(250w). I will transplant them into the diy air buckets tomorrow or Tuesday. Then i will start 2 more autos to replace them. Gonna order some more auto seeds.
Drying plants are in sealed, mostly, cardboard boxes. I left a couple of small cracks on each end, just enough to vent.
The orange gasm is top shelf smoke already, and that was the branch i had took a week before harvest, so this should be better, dam sure smells better.
The blueberry isnt as good as i thought. Too many dam seeds!!! Shes got frost, but no kick. Gonna try to press some of her and the rest will go in trim pile. I'll keep all top buds for a rainy day or hard times. I mean she'll get me high, but gotta smoke a cigar sized blunt to get there. Maybe it'll get better with a cure.

Transplant of 3 seedling is done. Got 2 in the modified air buckets, and 1 in a regular bucket. Made a real airy mix, and amended well with veg and bloom Dr earth, perilite, gypsum, ewc, alfalfa, and some biochar. Also added some mycos. They shouldn't need anything for about 3-4 weeks. So my plan is to keep reservoirs full at all times. I did put airstones and airdomes in 2 of the buckets. Hope i can see a difference in growth. Also cleaned the tent, lights, and fans thoroughly!
Gonna also get 2 more autos started soon. Waiting to order my auto seeds from speedseedsrun.com. they have some fire auto genetics a few pics.

Day 42 week 7 for autos. The lsd has grown a lil, she's now 15.5inches tall. The orion f1 auto is still 8 inches tall, but she's almost as wide as the 3 gallon pot. Both plants are swelling up nicely. Might end up with at least an ounce per plant, but im thinking less. Will order me some more auto seeds this week sometimes.
The vegging buckets are doing great. The roots still havent made it to the bottom of buckets yet. So been watering through the top with plain water phd to 6.2-6.5. Gave them some recharge yesterday, gave it to all plants, including autos. Dont really know how long the vegging plants have been vegging, probably will let them veg for 2 more weeks. They have probably been up about 35 days or so. Wont start counting days until flowering. Wont veg too long though, wanna keep these plants shorter, without the "leginess" of last plants. Will flip once they get as wide as pots. Snapped a few pics.

Day 46 for autos
Gave them some plain ph'd water last night. They have swollen since last update 4 days ago. Gonna probably remove some leaves from shorter orion auto next watering. Ordered some auto seeds yesterday from speedrun seeds. 26 seeds plus whatever freebies they send for 93 bucks. Now all i have to do is grow them one day! Lol But they are definitely in the top 5 of auto breeders out there. Ive been doing extensive research and it seems the top 5 are, in no order, Nightowl seeds, Mephisto genetics, gnome automatics, speedrun seeds and these guys breed both photo and autos, ethos genetics. Cant go wrong with any of these breeders is what a lot of people are saying. But do your own r & d. Anyway these 2 mini autos are frosty and stinky af. And that LSD auto is weirdly beautiful!!!

The veg tent gals are starting to gain speed. Can definitely see a difference in growth over last 4 days. The clone is looking like its the blueberry, but im still not sure, so she lives on. The GDP leaves are starting to taco a lil, probably bc temps hit 90 and rh is low like 35-40%. Ordered an ac infinity humidifier. So I'll get that up and running as soon as it gets here. Havent watered them since Sunday, buckets still feel heavy so ill let them go. Once top 2 inches dry out, and buckets feel light enough, I'll water one more time through the top with some liquid kelp. Then I'll fill buckets and let em roll. Also i turned
the airdomes on, they will only get air when light are on. I wish i was a lil further along with these plants but it is what it is. Next run will be all autos. Small or not I'm going autos all the way. Ordered the 2 pot xl autopot system, with some canna coco and canna a&b nutes. Already have cal mag. Thinking about replacing this small almost 3x3, with a 5x5 ac infinty kit. Still debating on that. Anyway some pics.

So vegging plants have been up for 42 days, they're 7 days or so behind autos. So ill flip the lights tonight. Dont want them to get to big, plus i wanna get these done so i can start on autos.

Day 1 flower
So the big plant on left might be another blueberry hermie. Shes starting to explode like her mom. I'll let her go until some pistils come out then i can tell. But its probably a blueberry clone. The gdp is looking rough around the edges, probably should've waited to flip, but wtf. The dynamite diesel is the strongest outta this run.
Day 54 for autos. I guess they are still swelling up. The LSD smells chemically af. The orion is dense af and frosty. This is gonna be some tasty shit, just not enough of it oh well. I think those 3-4days w/o lights triggered them into flowering. So i guess they wouldve maybe been a lil bigger. At least i didnt kill them like i was thinking about.
So the autopot system came yesterday. Those 6.6g pots are pretty big. Also got my ac infinity humidifier. Now just waiting on seeds, all autos, which should be here monday. Also recieved my canna coco nutes, still waiting on bricks. Probably gonna wait til around black friday to get the 5x5 ac infinity tent kit. Gonna turn this whole room into my grow playground. Slowly but surely. Gotta wait on my youngest daughter(26) to get out on her own, and then its full steam ahead. A few pics.

Day 5 flowering
Plants have grown pretty good for 4 days. Cant really tell if air is helping. The clone on left is the biggest. Just hoping its the orangegasm. If not ill be down to 2 plants. Will do a topdress when they dry out again. And water it in with some recharge and kelp. I think the leaf curling is from excessive alfalfa meal...just learned that it shouldn't be mix in near root zone, only spread on top, also used way too much, only should use small amount. Ok learned something there. Just hope the GDP can recover. Which she is still growing so maybe she'll be fine. The clone was probably affected too, all of them had that leaf taco look, but dynamite diesel wasn't that bad.
Autos day 58, will let them go until seeds get here and i get pots setup. Hadn't received my canna coco bricks, so might grab some mother earth coco mix. Probably will use canna nutrients on them still debating. Will probably just mix up an organic mix and go water only. Save canna nutes for autopots. Next run im gonna go 5 or 7 gallon fabric pots in this tent. A few pics.

Today is day 14 flower and babes are looking great. Will let them dry out and hit them with some humic and fulvic and kelp water through the top.
Also ordered some canna pk 13/14 for mid flower.
The granite haze auto has been up for 2 days now, and the soil is pushing up on the supreme runtz. Have to be careful during this period, its crucial to be gentle as possible with auto seedlings. This is the stage when they develop roots, so no OVERWATERING!!! I do have dripper system setup for these 2 but wont use that for at least 2 weeks. Pics tonight when i get off. Also have the ac Infinity 5x5 pro tent kit headed to the house. Probably wont setup until these autos are done, January or so. Just had to pull trigger on this now, before the money needs to go else where. Come on Trump i need some tax breaks and lower prices!!!!lol

Did a lil lsting and defoliation, mainly on the ddiesel. Also other auto seed hasnt popped yet, will pop another 1 in a couple days. And i also recieved the ac Infinity 5x5 tent pro kit. They sure do a great job packing everything into one box. Shit is high quality. Thinking im gonna take the 3x3 out to the garage and use as a dry tent. Too lazy to try and run 3 tents. Plus theres no room in the mancave. A few pics.

Day 19 flower
These gals are doing alright. The ddiesel has some thick branches with nice stacking so far very short internodal spacing, on the other hand the GDP is tall and spacey!!! No nanners yet been searching hard too. The ddiesel is drinking way faster than the GDP, and handling the nutes better too. Gave them some plain water this morning phd to 6.5. Gonna just pull a few more leaves on each plant on day 21.

Day 7 for auto. Making sure not to over water. She'll get a drink tomorrow morning. i planted another supreme runtz in 2nd pot yesterday. Snapped a couple of pics.

Day 26 flowering
Gals are doing their thing. Drinking a gallon just about daily. Just been keeping reservoirs full with plain water. Will top feed 6tbs of dr. Earth bloom, 2tbs of dr. Earth veg and some ewc on thanksgiving. No nanners so far. Will top water that in with some pk booster. So far everything is going good with this run.

Day 14 and day 7 for autos. The bigger gal is starting to pick up the pace, the lil gal is doing pretty good too. Picked up some auto nutrients by cronk nutrients its called bonnie and clyde. Will start using that once dry amendments are used up. Still debating on that though. Might just top dress these babes too. So far im happy with these plants, no pistils yet which is great. Not much going on right now. Just trying to keep it all green and frosty. Snapped a few pics.

So good views from here friend wish you the best of lucks on your grow (=

Thanks man. I love my spider farmer setup, 2 years and still going strong!!! Good equipment.

Note to self:
Gave the gals a topdress last night, 2tbs of dr earth tomato and veg, 6tbs of dr earth bloom, and this might be a mistake at this stage, but i added a half cup of ewc too. Hope its not to much nitrogen, but we'll see. Each bucket got that mix, hadnt watered it in yet bc res still had water in it, will water in friday with epsom salt and recharge.
Autos got drenched with plain water yesterday so ill wait a day or 2 b4 hitting them again. Only have 4 plants going now, just feel like i need more going on, bc after xmas my 5x5 is going up. Maybe i need to pop about 2 more auto seeds. So ill have something to put in it. So I'll pop 2 seeds using paper towel method of same strain, and they'll go in buckets, with amended soil to start off and ill finish with synthetic bloom nutrients. Sounds like a plan. I'll get seeds going tonight.

Day 30 flower
Babes are looking great. Everything is growing and swelling nicely.
Been keeping reservoirs filled, gave them a top watering a couple days ago. I poured a gallon of recharge and some pk booster thru each plant, it filled reservoirs up halfway, so i just been topping off with plain phd 6.5 water. Also did a big defoliation on the dynamite diesel, also pulled a few off the GDP too. The GDP has some weird leaves, looks like magnesium deficiency. I'll keep an eye out, gotta give amendments time to break down. They're smelling great, dank af.

Day 19 and 12 for granite haze and supreme runtz. I guess they're doing ok, not too sure about these autos, but the granite haze looks like shes picking up pace. The supreme runtz looks like it might be a midget, but I'll reserve judgement for now. They are both green and not flowering yet, so im happy about that. All 5 seeds i put in paper towels had nice taproots so they got planted tonight. 2 autos in buckets are Sour black Cherry haze, then i have 3 photos, a punch pie, and 2 cherry jelly x golden goat, gonna just call it cherry goat from now on, they were freebies from irie genetics. Still cleaning out room and moving shit around before 5x5 goes up. When it goes up I'll probably pop a few more autos. Snapped a few pics.

Day 36 flower
Babes are doing their thing! Gave them some more canna pk boost and cal mag. They'll get plain water for next couple fill ups. Nothing much going on. Just watering and watching for herms.

Day 25 and day 18 for 2 autos. The haze is looking better, the runtz is still smallish but looks like shes picking up the pace. Just been giving plain water, with cal mag.
Outta the 5 seeds i planted only 4 came up, 2 cherry goats, and 2 sour black cherry haze(sbch). The punch pie seed was rotten, so put another in the pot. Plan on leaving domes on for a minute since humidity is so low. So far everything is on schedule, hadn't put up 5x5 yet, but got the boxes in the room ready to go...i figured why waste electricity now, ill let the autos get a lil bigger in the buckets then ill put tent up, and put the four autos in there. Then ill pop 3 more autos to put back in veg/auto tent, depending on how big photo seedlings are. Thats the plan for now.
