Okay, UPDATE! I just went out and pollinated all of lucky's inside buds with auto pollen, I'm hopin to be able to get offspring with a shorter flowering time. I was right in the bush lol pollinating when what do I see? A little bitty couple of hairs coming off a branch...from the other plant! Both of the mids I planted were girls! Lucky is now a whopping 21 inches tall, as opposed to the 13 inches she was when I put her into 12/12 22 days ago. The other one has been in for 12 days. I need to come up with a name for her, just cuz it helps me to keep em straight. Any suggestions?

Mid sprout 1 is bigger than sprout 2, but they are both doing well. I also threw in a pic of Destiny just because she is so beautiful! She has filled in completely now. She is supposed to be a 55 to 60 day finisher, but obviously will not be done, at least not in 55, that would be tomorrow. Any body have any more experience with autos than I do? If so, would anyone care to hazard a guess about the due date of my little girl?:peace:

Hey doinit, everything's lookin great! I don't have a lot of experience with autos but I can tell you based on the amount of white hairs you've got that you're 2-3 weeks out from being ready on that plant. I've heard some autos take 90-110 days from seed to finish depending on the breeding. Not all of them seem finish in that 60 day time frame, even if they are advertised to do so. Breeding in auto characteristics that react the same every time is tough. Honestly the plant looks like it's at that stage where the buds are about to really fatten up & that usually takes at least a couple weeks. Don't get impatient, that looks like it's gonna be some danky herb!

Hey surge, not a problem! There arent as many girls growing out there as I thought there were. I'll pray to the pot gods that your short rider is a girl! Hell, I might figure out a way to use hps if I got one for free LOL. I started mine under a shitload of daylight cfls and then moved them outside because the room was so hot and I didn't want to heat stress them.

Hi Rom, and Thanks! I was thinking at least another week, and fdd said 3, but I was really hoping she would be done soon. I can't keep paying these exorbitant prices for crappy medicine. There's no way shes coming down before she's ready though, she's just too beautiful.

Thanks for the praise and well wishes guys, and stop in anytime!

So I switched my super skunk to flower. She hit 12 inches last night, so I figured it was time to get her going. I hear sativas take up to 14 weeks to flower, and that skunk is FOR SURE sativa dominant. Hell, I'm pretty sure she's ALL sativa, I just hope she ends up being all woman too LOL. I got some new pics of Lucky and Kali, I'll bbiab to post them.

The first one is my newly sexed girl Kali, the second one is a close up of Lucky's main stalk. I will be moving soon so when I move the girls I will take a full body pic of Lucky, but right now the confines of the room are too small to get a good pic. I can't believe midgrade bagseed is getting this many little hairs!

Looking good!! I'd say you AF has 3-4 weeks to go off eyeing. But that also depends on your wants. Are you harvesting her mostly amber or mostly cloudy? My first batch of low ryders, I went with 10% amber..rest cloudy because I didn't want the couch lock. They went to 75 total days. About 44 of which was flowering.

Anyhow, love the pictures and I'm subb'ed. I just don't tend to post much. Bill picked a good name. ;)

I was thinking I want her to have more of the energetic sativa high than the couchlock stone. I don't have a problem sitting on my ass if I want to LOL. We will be moving over the next couple of weeks, and I am hoping to have her ready by the end for that extra boost I'm gonna need. Plus, I'm right at my limit for plants, and I want to try to cut a couple more ww clones, so Destiny is coming down as soon as she is ready. Fdd said I can just watch the hairs and when they appear to have shriveled and died and started to withdraw into the calyx's that's when she's ready.

Destiny is starting to color very nicely. Especially overnight...its kinda weird. I can't seem to get any pics to load right now though, so I'll post some tomorrow. That way you guys can tell me if there is really a difference, or if my thinking is just extremely wishful lol.

Okay, so I admit that all in all there is not a dramatic change, but there IS a change, and pretty good for just 1 day. :mrgreen: And even if not...I am really fond of bud porn!
