110 autos is mad. If you manage an ounce per plant youll be rolling in the smoke. What kind of yields can be expected from the canadian autos in our climate. They dont contain any ruderelis right?

still waiting on my order for the purple wreck, the other strain was out of stock, so my order was delayed.......

200! lol i dont have 200, but that would be sweet to see :)
i might get digging again and expand another plot...
My problem is drying the stuff, doing half auto's and half mid oct finishers would be a wise move.
I plan to make a drying tent (propane + greenhouse heater + car battery, computer fans) could work? will test it with smaller buds to find out.

femmed autos, could be a worth a try? i dont know the best way to go about it?
i used to think about putting some auto pollen on a nice easy sativa (feminized) girl?
would that make more females?

im looking forward to seeing what surprises pop out of the genetic matrix this year... hoping to get a cut of shanti's mango haze... (crossed to an auto indica? :))

after this years grow, im hoping to have to never buy seeds again.

yea drying can be a problem sometimes-----one good seed run will do the trick----200 is a lot by the time the males show it will look huge but by the time the males are culled it looks more managable----i know they like big pots but if u keep them ib smaller pots its amazeing how many u can fit in a small space---then put them in ground ----mine grew twice as big as the ones in pots ---big pots --a lot of autos seem to be one main cola so sea of green is perfect-----good luck -----

i plan to start off in a nice amount of soil, my starter pots usually contain more than a litre of soil. I will start plants around mid april in a ghetto scaffhold plank greenhouse lol.
Get them off to a good early start, which will hopefully encourage them to flower earlier.

Nice to hear its doing some good mate.I am fairly sure i only used recommended dose and i only sprayed on the canopy for as long as could hold my breath before running out of the room. Not long basically. :)

Welcome ZoeFreshh, will you be joining us for some seasonal delights this year?

I've finally had some time to play around in the kitchen today. :yes:

I've saved some chillis (Aneheim, from California I believe) from last year. I've been letting them partially dry to intensify the flavours to make some hot sauce out of them. I am a HUGE fan of hot sauce, I go mental for chillis, I literally add either chilli or chilli sauce to anything I can. Aneheim are not hot at all but have a nice fresh flavour(a bit like red bell pepper). As I like things hot Ive added half a scotch bonnet and a birds eye chilli to the mix. Its my first go making hot sauce so I improvised a bit. I simple lightly fried the chillis and some garlic (of course) in a little oil then added a load of distilled malt vinegar, salt and sugar simmered for 5 then blended. I would have prefered to use white wine or cider vinegar. Apperently you leave it in a jar for a week to improve the flavour. :)

I've also made some honey oil cookies, not tried them yet so not sure how they'll be. Ive always used trim before but this time I've used oil as I've read it gives a much subtler, less green flava flav.

Also made some carrot, lentil and cumin soup. Oh yes. :D

SWEET! i've got a load of dry chillis in the cupboard as we speak! i made about 4 pints of medium hot chilli sauce outta my own garden last season. woulda preferred it to be WAY hotter, but it was my first attempt. i'm planning on germing my chilli seeds by mid feb this year, as i had no luck with the habaneros and scotch bonnets germed in may last year...
got 20 habanero seeds so far... gonna go with habs, scotchies, jalapeno, basque esplette, ancho poblano, and some naga family this year. it'll be the only growing i'm doing... :(

laters all
