The lights are set on 20/4. The max temp has been 82.5 F. Usually it hovers around 76-79. I added an intake a bit ago when I started the other 600 up (about 1/3 of the CFM that the exhaust is). The ambient temp is usually around 70F so that helps to keep things cool. With this fan, these lights, and hoods I can hold my hand against the glass indefinitely if I wanted to.

Still can't find that damn power cord and I am not comfortable sending pics from my phone to my email.

Looking good so far. Subscribed. Might have to do a batch of autos in my tent next round if yours goes well.

Found my camera's battery charger.

The plants to the left are the photoperiod plants to go outside.
The third pic is the mini hydro setup I was experimenting with to see what it was all about. seems to be loving life so far.
The last pic is a plant that created an "s" shape on its own and rooted part of it to the dirt and the circled areas are tops pushing through. there are a number of them hat you can't see in the pic and seem to be catching up with the main top pretty well.

Gave the autos a low dose (~400ppm) of bloom nutes today. Hoping the added phosphorus will spur some flowers along. They were also showing a little purple striping on their stems so I think they were craving it.

Still not showing sex. Set my light for 16/8 for the weekend and hopefully that will spur them on even more. It's been almost a month. I will be pissed if someone managed to fuck up my order and these aren't autos. I really don't think i would be able to fit this many full plants in there.. Sure would make for a monster october though.:lol:

On right around day thirty one (+- a day).
Also, rearranged my lights to remove some ducting so that the fan can move air more easily as warmer temps are coming.

that IS really strange. It's usually day 19-21ish that they sex, right? Could it be the genetics?

yeah... Unless your whole order got mixed up with someone else's this seems highly unlikely...



but I'm definitely not an expert.

Fed a ~650 ppm bloom dose today. Still no showing sex. Going to cut the lights for ~24 hours and see. This is getting absurd. Everything is in order for them to bloom.. I don't get it. I have been trying to take out the one plant in the little coffee can DWC. Blasted it with 1200ppm grow with about 2mL snow storm ultra/gallon. Sucked up the nutes so quick. dropped to ~670 the next day, drank half the res, and it loved it. Really took off and no signs of burn at all. Definitely the best looking plant I have in my tent. I should have went with hydro XD

Wierd about not showing sex yet. I know next to nothing with autoflowers. But other than that all i can say is your plants look good. LOL

Good luck.

Thanks for stopping by my grow.

So... about now I am going to simply assume that none of these are autos being that none have shown. Pretty fucking pissed. Who knows that they are, because they certainly aren't what I ordered. There are definite phenotypes that stick out. I will never be ordering from 420discreteseeds or their sister site again. All of these will be going outdoors after hardening off over the next 2 weeks. Pending they live throughout the summer, the fall will be a nice harvest. This sucks.

Yeah, it sucks bad. Some of them are like 16-18" now and not showing at all. I will try to get a hold of the people. Some sites are weird about claiming issues with the seeds. I have heard of places that ban you if you mention germinating and such. If I had known they weren't autos then I would have probably veg'd the 20 AK47 fems I was saving :mad:
