Nirvana Auto Grow

all strains pre flower at 4 -6 weeks, atleast alot of them do. im betting those arent autos much like nirvanas other bunk, unfortunately you probally just got bubblicious with ruderalis mixed in that contributes to less potency and no auto flower function. too many seed banks realeasing crap thats not finished yet and ready for the public.

Nirvana worked these up for several years i heard.
prolly cause the short ryders got such a bad rep.

Idk but I ll bet they are true autos and hella good.

I LOVE nirvanas norhten lights.

thank you for pooping all over my thread.

the bubbleish and jock horror are doing okay, but the NL is my favourite and absolutely doing really well.

Yes, ok well, there is no pictures for this update. I have them in their outdoor plots so, while I could get a camera out there, I dont want to create any unnessecary trails.

The NL is lush and green and growing short and wide. The Bubbleish and Jock Horror however have some yellowing/drying tips
the fan leaves. My initial soil consisted of the soil from my vegetable garden so I am not sure why that would happen? I have since put them into new containers with new soil.

My soil mix is:
2 bags black earth
.5 bag perlite
handful of worm castings

And I am using Jobes Organic Vegetible Fertilizer Spikes that are NPK 2-7-4. It is my first time using these, so I will keep an eye on how well these perform. I haven't had to water them yet as it has rained every 3-4 days since I planted them last week which is a blessing from the ganja gods.

** got a little lonely without my little girls around so I started up a couple femmed Purple Maroc's.

thank you. former president jimmy carter

I understand that most strains show preflowers....

But this Nirvana Auto is Beating ALL my others to show sex and I hope that means it will start flowering...

I can't believe that Nirvana would ruin it's name by selling crappy auto's

Either way, I will know within the next 30 days....

My Lights are running 20/4 with 40,000 Lumen HO T5 light...

I'm hoping my Auto Bubble proves itself....

Oh, and Jimmy.... Keep us updated... we are all curious
 
i think u got dooped, if they start to auto for u in the coming week thats week 5 yes, week 5 plus 45 days for the average auto flowering time puts u at 80 days, if they dont kick out flowers soon u should just put em on 12 n 12, once your in the 3 month mark useing autos make absolutely no sense. i just got bunk short stuff #1s, iim in that same boat so not being a negative jerk, 6 weeks and not a one autod and they aint going to.

i had femainzed chronic seeds, they all showed sex under 15 hours of light at 3-4 weeks, long female hairs coming out not just little green pre flowers like u had showing, give yours one more week, if nothing u need to treat them like conventional seeds.

Damn... that would suck... but whatever... they were freebies from Attitude.

And... I will just throw it under 12/12 if nothing happens in next few days.

They are showing much bigger hairs now.... but... no flowers yet.

Today is actually day 39.

When I was growing Lowryder #2, they didn't start showing sex until day 35 or so....

Crossing my fingers!!!
 
wow, my low 2s all flowerd by around day 25, seems like the variation of the autos even from trusted names like joint doc isnt reliable or theese places are at times selling cheap nock offs and making there own labes n seed packets, its is the wild west of unrestrained capitalism, its a no brainer to expect untrustworthy supply here n there. yeah good luck with the light switch, just hope the ruderalis doesnt fuck up the potency alot which does happen.

im about 4 weeks in..they started showing sex at about 3-3.5 weeks. so ill check them tommorow. hopefully they arent bunk, but its just an experiment for me and thankfully my harvest isnt dependant on them.

I wish it could just throw them under 12/12, but i am doing mine fully out of doors.

I am going to check on them tommorow, so ill get some pics and update. hopefully all these june showers bring july flowers.
 
Keep us apraised of what is happening please. I imagine it sucks to not get what you were expecting but you are still doing us a solid by reporting what you have discovered. Good job.

I had to replant again today: i had all there in a large rubbermaid with holes drilled in the bottoms and in a swampy area but I guess with all this rain we have been having they clogged up and water wasnt draining properly. *i still have my papayas out there, but they are in growbags (well worth the money)

I planted all three directly into a corn field, where they will recieve 8 hours of light. I like this because, its easier to get to.

bubblelish. very pathetic looking, although I have made the most mistakes with this one.




the jock. small but is healthy.



the NL is the best.

NOTE* all are in their fourth week.

Looking good but you could probably cut some of the surrounding corn down to make some more room and give your girls better chance of catching the sun!

Keep us updated my friend.
 
As ive understood it the best way is to start autos in big pots. If they wont start to flower give them 24 hours of darkness. Just what i have read, so it could be BS..

You can transplant just do it before two weeks. Its hard to judge moisture levels in large pots if you are not acquainted with it. So you could cause some over or even under watered conditions for your plants.

If proper care is given then they will flower own there own. There is no need to have a long dark period to induce flower. I started on 18/6 and never cut the lights till harvest. She finished on the same light regimen.

Well.... I won't be ordering any. I'm stoked they were free, but a little frustrated I wasted Nutes and space for something that did not autoflower.

It's been WAY too long, so I moved the Automatic Bubblelicious to our flower room.

anyone else?

Has anybody had any luck?
