You have A LOT of bud coming your way though I'm subbed to your thread

thx.. She is looking better already. Going to feed her again tomorrow. I am going to try autos soon, once my box is up and running. I would much rather have 5 smaller plants than 1 big one. It seems the shorter it is the less light it needs and the easier it is to maintain, at least so far. Well see i guess.

Cant wait for yours to start flowering. Gonna be a beauty.

We shall see!

I am planning on adding about half a tablespoon of blood meal into the soil spread out, then give some nuted water. Then return to regular water for the next 2 sessions.
EDIT: Thought popped into my head while I was vaping, my girls obvious not flowering so why don't I switch back to 6500k bulbs...

Foolet · Jun 23, 2011

Today I watered the youngest and the oldest with the nuted water. I also gave the largest plant about .4 teaspoons of 12-0-0 dried blood. The next 2 watering sessions will be with regular ph'd water.

Dude she's fine. I don't know the current status, but a little burnt leaf tip is like a feather slapping your plant across the face.
Seriously.

I don't know whats going on with your lighting schedule, but 20/4 is recommended for auto's.
If you're already at 12/12 or 18/6 then it's too late to switch back.
But please don't do 12/12 for autos :/

Foolet · Jun 24, 2011

She is 30 days old and still not in flower, HmMmMm if anyone else has ever grown auto's or specifically fast bud can they tell me how old there plants were when they went into flower. Also I switched back to 3x23 6500k, 1x42 2700k.

Dont take my post as granted, i am a newbie, but autos normally start flowering after the 3rd week. if they dont it means that they are photoperiod plants possibly caused by bad genetics/crosses,thus you have to change to 12/12 schedule and 2700k bulbs to see them flowering. Before you do anything post your problem in this thread, it is dedicated to autos only:

If this is the case can I keep letting her veg as long as I'd like and possibly clone her?

swantip · Jun 24, 2011

If this is the case, i suppose yes. But better ask those questions in the link i posted above, there are people with more experience in there.Autos are generally a new type of plant on the market, and therefore cant be 100% trusted.

Alright, and just to be sure, how long I leave her in veg will not effect her flowering time correct?

swantip · Jun 24, 2011

Photoperiod plants can be vegged as much as you want. I have seen a plant in veg for 2 years... But with autos.... i dont know

(well if this is an auto). Keep it in veg and clone it if you like but i think that its clones will be also photoperiods... If i was you i would have waited a bit more and then switch to 12/12. if i was about to clone i would surely not do it with such a strain, i would buy a photoperiod normal plant.but thats just me

borbor · Jun 24, 2011

just poppin' in again to say I don't have much real useful advice for you at the moment, but I'm watching your grow avidly

Your confusing me a bit. I never changed the lighting schedule yet, she's still on 18/6. This is SUPPOSE to be an auto.. and it has been crossed to receive the auto flowering trait... I guess I'll keep vegging for a bit and if not in flower by day 40 I'll flower...

Crops420 · Jun 25, 2011

thats the only thing that sucks about autoflowers...they dont always work.. and ur left to do all the hard work of switching ur timer to 12/12

swantip · Jun 25, 2011

yes thats what i would also do. wait until day 40 and if they wont flower then switch to 12/12 and change the bulbs to 2700k

Foolet · Jun 25, 2011

new setup/31 days old

Whole cabinet was made out of scraps... It was not meant to be extravagant or completely stealth or anything.. It'll do for a few grows till I got some money in ma pocket. Oh, and I'm aware I did a TERRIBLE job with the Mylar lining. She is going to LOVE the nice new cool environment, she should hit a max of 85 degrees ever... I don't even have an intake fan setup yet! ONLY OUTTAKE! and the temps are still this good.

Foolet · Jun 25, 2011

Any comments for the new setup? This'll allow her to get nice and big!

HighLife4Me · Jun 26, 2011

Shes growing

. Box looks fine. She should love it in there. I cant wait to see her start flowering. Are u still using 6500k's? It would be nice to send her into flower soon. Crazy veg master. ;p

I uploaded some pics of my budzz, not sure though, they should look better being 4 weeks into flower. Its ok i have 5 more plants going all from different sacks. I'll find me an auto one way or another

Har har har, I am a crazy veg master. I plan on vegging until day 40, then I will be FORCED to switch to a 12-12 schedule. This afternoon I am going to raise the lights a bit higher then the picture has them and put in all 4x42watt 2700k. Hopefully she'll stretch out a bit more.

huklburryfin · Jun 26, 2011
