Since you are active and most people are sleeping could I bother you for your opinion real fast I hit a snag that may be a heart breaker. I moved my garden from a spare bedroom that is now being used and got a 4 by 8 by 7 foot tent and put it in my room. The whole duration of the plants life in the spare room was fine actually almost perfect. But I noticed this morning some spots on a few fan leaves and a few bugs on each leaf with symptoms. They are under the leaves obviously. But im not sure what they are. I've had spider mites when I first started with my grandpa. But these look smaller than the mites we had and I don't see any webs anywhere not even single threads between leaves. Just some tiny black spots moving around and what looks to me to he some white eggs maybe. A bunch of little white spots compared to black bugs. But the white things aren't moving when I flip the leaves over for a peek.Keep up the good work man....

i am guessing thrips .........the other thing is relax man we all went tho this as new growers
freaking out at all the variables that pop up.......plants are tough little things look at us stoners heavy handed and all they still make great shit for us
ok u have 2 choices right now
1 import some lady bugs and spiders
2 pepper spray of death .......kills any bug and repels any dog human or bear if strong enough
for number 1 u will need to find a bug supplier (this is common they sell lady bugs just for this reason )

One week from breeders harvest estimate. Still waiting for more swelling. Hopefully she fattens up more. Not looking too dense on the lower buds of the short plant. The tall bent plant is pretty even in size and are definitely a denser pheno. Gunna put them in the dark room about day 70 then cut on the 72nd night. Maybe let them go longer if they look like they need it. Alot of orange hairs on the short plant but I think that was from my step dad touching the buds and smelling his fingers I tell him not to touch but he squeezes them any way. Does that affect growth? To me it looks like some spots the calyxes aren't growing any more where he touched while the others are still white haired and bigger. Any thoughts? Try and post updates and pics every 2 weeks or so to see progress of the grow a little easier

Justugh has helped me soooooooooo much that I offered to name my first born after him (I'm fixed tho....shhhhh!), so anytime you have questions I'd definitely suggest asking him for his thoughts!
Dr. Who is another member that has really helped me as well. GL

Harvested short plant two days earlier than harvest date on seed pack. She turned fast and swelled early while the tall bent plant took almost 10 days longer. I yeilded just over 30 grams dry from the short plant and I got 73 grams off the tall plant. Mostly because I think I jumped the gun on the first plant also being bent over trying to control the height made a lot of the side branches on one side grow up evenly with the top and made more clusters of solid two and three gram buds

Thanks everyone for input and advice and for even checking out this post. Grandpa would have loved it. The second auto was really strong and frosty they were definitely the best end product of my grows considering we always had outdoor problems. Not going to lie to make myself look better. The bubblegum auto seeds from thseeds were over all good. Got the three pack from an order to truenorth seed bank. Two of the three seeds sprouted. All three germinated but only two popped soil. It took 68 days to harvest the shorter Christmas tree shaped pheno. While the second taller one went to day 76 before I put it in the spare room in darkness for about 40 hours. The tall plant had more of a sour fruit smell after fully drying and curing in two different quart jars. The small plant I dried and cured in one bigger rubber sealed jar with a clamp down lid. I don't know if the jar made a difference but the shorter plant had a sweeter more bubblegum like smell when cut and hanging but after it dried completely and started curing it was really strong and kept the fresh green smell. Almost like a cut grass with a weaker smell of bubblegum. Also probably my harvest being premature didn't allow the smell to be all that. Both plants smoked really thick at first making my bong look yellow almost when filling. But I put most away to fully cure in the jars after taking a few samples to try before hand. After 10 days of me opening and closing the jars the smoke isn't at all harsh to the throat, no taste of green trim anymore just a smooth musky taste. Kinda like a cheese after taste. The high from both plants were really strong. As I smoked a joint of each plant. (Grandpa always insisted on smoking a joint to get full flavor from all his plants when they were done curing). Both took till about mid way into the joint before the high crept in but it would steadily get strong over the next ten minutes and mentally get you stuck for a good hour and a half before vanishing as quick as it comes on. The tall plant had twice the frost and a way longer high. I would rate the finished buds from the better plant a 7.5 out of 10 overall. Not the best I've smoked. Not the best I've smelled. Not the prettiest I've seen. But there was nothing I didn't like about the strain it just didn't amaze me in taste smell or buzz. Over all I still liked it alot. Grandpa would have loved it. Bubblegum was one of his favorite strains he's tried. I'll just have to search for a female and not take short cuts next time. I would recommend this strain if you wanted a good size auto in 10 to 11 weeks. With an ounce or more per plant of pretty good quality. But if you want to grow that plant that wows everyone in strength and smell it wouldn't be my first choice. I just passed one week mark on my 2 girlscoutjones Jones from connisuer genetics 2 akorn from thseeds and 2 mystery fem seeds from my connect in Humboldt all under the same scrog. I'll post updates and picture for anyone who wants to see
