Ok this is my second journal its going to be a auto flower grow. I bought 40 beans, and i grew 5 just to see what to exspect. The 1rst 5, are AK47xlow rider 2. (Lr2). The rest are Lr2,blue berry,double deasil, santa mariaX Lr2, and more ak47xLr2. These are going to be grown in soil, fox farm ocean forest. I chose this soil because it has alot of nutes already mixed in so theres no need for nutes early in the life of the plant. now these 1rst 5 i gave no nutes at all through the life of these plants, except whats in this soil. So there will be no need for flushing at time of harvest. Lighting was kept at 24-7 using 400 watt hps, and i have a 400 watt metal haylies . Witch i will use on this next grow. These 5 took a month and a half. I found that these autos are unpredictable, in there grow as you can see on these 1rst pics. 3 are nice in size it looks like ill get about an one oz off each plant. BUT their are two that ill get one hit lol and the other get about 6 hits. that one hit lol is about as big as a finger nail its a bud on a stick lol the others about as big as a cigarette lighter. But others 3 look mean .They are turning purple and im going to cut them in a week. WATER - i use nothing but rain water on these plant again with no nutes. ph kept at 6.0 through out the grow. With winter here i put a space heater in there to keep my ladys warm. In this next grow some ladys will be getting nutes, some wont. To see if theres a different in growth. Although i wont be using veg growth nutes because autos dont have but a week to 10 days of veg then they go striate to flower and the nutes in soil should last up to 3 week before ill start giving them nutes and it will be very lightly in that. im thinking 7- 15 mls per gallon. O and in this journal i will be growing in another grow room, regular plants not autos.In that grow there is white widow, big bud, northern lights, and hawaiian snow. The one buy it self is the hawaiian snow and i have two more from seed and 5 in clones now. Also the plant there with the autos, i dont know what it is but it is excotic. And is very healthy the stock on her is thick and strong this plant looks very nice get ill find out when see buds. that one hawaiian snow is in flower now has been for 1 week now. and one pic of some bud in the jars curing.

These were a test batch. And they are done in my appenion, what you think? They are at 47 days now. these were given very little nuts.only two waterings had nuts in it. all the rest came from the fox farm ,Ocean Forest. Witch as nuts already in it. They were water, 3-4 days apart. The nuts were given in the 6th week of flower. Then straight water after, that way all nutes have been used up at harvest. they do look like it will hurt you cant wait for the curing. YEA!!!!

Ok this is the other grow that is going on now as well. It contains a mix of premium seed from attitude. White Widow,Big Bud, and northern lights. I also have 4 hawaiian snow the bigger one and 3 little ones and some more Crystal . The Crystal is the one on the floor. She got a real heathy stock and all clones off her took root and are ready for transplant. Other clones are hawaiian snow. Soon as i move those clone ill clone the other premium seeds grow. O the top of that hawaiian grew into the light while i was gone thats why she her top got burned. But she will bounce back. Dam i was gone for a week, Raised the light before left about 5 inches and well you see.

ok i just cut these 5 autos and have trimmed them down. I put them in darkness for 36 hours and it seems that they might have increased alittle in the chromes, i did notic that the plants created some condisation in the plant. water pellets in and on the leaves and in the bud. huh go figure. Maybe there is something there.ill post some pic after the holidays of them before the go in to the jars for curing

one of my plants turned out to be a male, bummer now i have 6 male clones to go with it. these boys died today dammit. hawaiian plant looks good and all her clones look good. i moved all her clones down under the mh/ hps lights today figure ill veg them for two weeks then off to flower for them. i put 4 others in flower today to sex them dont i might take a clone or two form each after they are sexed. this means the auto grow will start this week. so here we go

Looks good.

You might consider saving some of those more exotic males
since you are growing in pots
you can move them to another room
and low light will work for collecting small amounts of pollen.

It is easy to save pollen and then selctively polenate just one or two buds.

Making your own seeds is a great way to improve your future.

+rep for showing your grow.

good to see ya earl you know iv thought about that i have two males and looks like one more. giving it acouple more days just to make sure. i know these males come from adituttude so they are exotic. just went and got me a b day present another reflector and digtal ballast. to replace the little sun beam in flower area. wanted a bigger foot print.on flowers so now i have a light to use. or sould i just use a cfl light on him can you pollenate a auto flower and get seeds? thought about pollenate one of these autos. ok was heres a ? for ya. can you pollenate will pop. i thought a hybred could nreproduce, what ot do you think. thanks for posting bud thought i was on my own here.
