400w hps autoflowering mixed pack flower log - 9 girls

[fatal1]

Wow. The power of one good grow thread!!! This one thread has made 2 people I know purchase Lowlife seeds. I'll watch their grows and maybe pick up a pack for myself in a couple months.

Watch out, once you go auto, your hooked, at least thats what happened to me.

very nice grow i must admit, i am not familiar with the auto-flowering variety/ strains of cannabis other than lowrider. but it seems as though, you can get to a certain height and thats it? is that the case.

common sense says that its auto flowering, but can one veg them first to a certain height or (sorry gotta ask since i dont know) is it literally auto-flowering

awesome i must try some now!

they are autoflowering so they do have a veg/flower period, but we don't control the lengths of those periods, unlike non-autos. my mixed pack was full of different genetics and you can see from the different sizes of the plants(11", 13", 19", 31" etc) they all had different length veg times; also why some were ready for harvest at day 70 and one is still going at day 101.

they've lived their entire lives under 18/6 light(i think 20/4 is recommended), so yes, they are literally autoflowering.

4.28.08 - Day 109

big momma came down on the 28th and is now dry and ready to cure.

#5 big momma:











I kept numbers consistant with the numbers i gave the girls from pics on page 1 if you want to see how much each girl put out for me.

Dry Weights:
girl 1: 25.13g
girl 2: 18.10g
girl 3: 22.35g
girl 4: 17.07g
girl 5: 54.13g <- big momma!
girl 6: 15.10g
girl 7: 30.30g
girl 8: 25.70g
girl 9: 15.50g

Total Dry Weight: 223.38 g
Average plant yeild: 24.82 g/plant
Grams per watt: 0.557 g/w
Harvest days: 72-109(from seed)

the smoke is amazing and I'm very happy with the outcome of the grow.

mistakes/things to be fixed:
-would have had better veg results using non-hps.
I now have 2 400w cmh bulbs along with my 400w hortilux hps, fixed.
-should have added ventilation earlier
Added 270cfm inline exhaust fan around day 50. a bigger one will be needed for 800w in the summer.
-light leaks from under door/my only intake
Need to add better intake, this was only partially fixed on day ~70.
-supernatural nutes salts build up wayyyy to fast
I now run 3part flora/micro/grow, fixed on day 90.
-never took ppm's and used drip test for ph
hanna ph pen bought on day 90, ppm pen waiting to be delivered, fixed.


questions/comments? thanks to everyone for all of your kind words.

Hey again lowlife! :friends: I've been fabulous, actually very close to taking down another harvest myself. How is the breeding going? Seems like people love your work with autos.

Great to hear from you again! Check out my current grow in my signature.

NICE, Very Nice, grow...

I'm about to start some La diva and Easy Ryder. First Auto grow.
I noticed some of yours were ready way before the others. Is that something that's common with auto's?
How did you tell when they were ready? brown hairs? or a microscope?
