I flowered these in homemade medium. In my one room cabin. Without a tent. It was nuts. Alaska so dark is no problem part of the year. Left the chargers plugged in, a single CFL at night on for a few hours, watched movies on my television , played video games.

Not a single hermie. And 2 got hooked on "Battlefield 3".

Baby gate SCROG. This was not planned at all but when others are involved . . ...

Not hard or expensive to make this. Forget sand or vermiculite. Peat and perlite 50/50. Treat it like hydro. Basically every watering is a feed. If not checking PPM or pH or runoff just go halkf strength on the nutes.

Check out World of Seeds White Rhino X Mazar. Knockout shit and a heavy producer. I have experience running the strain. But use Leafly and look for heavy yielder. Or Attitudes Advanced Search.

You can grow a lot in a 5 gallon smart pot.

I went nuts last Spring. Cabin fever from a long winter . Started planting . Couldn't stop. Alaska sun looong in summer.

A buddy called looking for clones. He ended up making a wooden frame for the back of a truck so a tarp could fit over. They could only take 6 in a LWB pickup.

Still had a shitload. Called others and they came. Put the last 6, including 2 autos, in my cabikn without a tent. Unplanned . It went from there. Thankfully the autos finished in under a month.

Oh shit lol. Do u like the autos so they seem like the produce much? Ive been curious about them. I dont try to get to crazy with my grows. I can do up to four plants but i only do three. I have thought about doing away with the tent tho.

These are the second autos I've grown. A neighbor is part owner of a seed bank and gave me some. They're pretty decent. They're all that can grow outside and finish here in Alaska. Days are too ling for photos. It's freezing hard before we hit 12/12.

Is perlite way different looking before it's blasted? You can do an entire run in the stuff

Lol it look like regular rock tell its expanded. We crush it down to 3/4s of a inch then screwn it all to size and ship it off. If u place it under a cutting torch it will expand or pop as some like to say. We have the best ore in the world not hard to do when there are only a hand full of perlite mines in the world.
