What's new

I like growing Autos.

24/7, HID from seed. Big pots big plants. 3 strains, 6 phenos. all well over 40" except 2.
All multiple colas except 1.
Glad I tried em. Now Im kinda hooked, weird girls, never knew much about autos. Wish I had a male in there...

Those past pictures have been harvested. The pictures coming are from a groups of sprouts started at the end of May. Some are close to harvest and some are a couple weeks out. Posting some pictures here in a few minutes. I don't grow a lot just enough to keep me sane. On average, I usually yield an ounce per plant. Most of those plants you saw on page 1 were put outdoors and have already been harvested.

The two bigger plants are Ogre the one in the back right is a Spyder and the others are Pinkbud green phenos. I like the Spyder a lot. I tried to make a few seeds because the only place that carries the seeds is out. I ended up with 48 seeds. So far the only strains that I have grew out that have good size and rock hard buds are my sour secret and the spyder. I had some shitty luck with the spyder once they sprouted. 5 out of 10 of them dried out and died when I put them under the fluoros. Although, seeing the great buds that I ended up with, with the two females, make me want to try it again.

These pictures are of all the plants I have in my tent. They are all my homemade strain called Sour secret (sour 60 x secret citrus). I saw some signs of fungus gnats so I sprayed the plants with some pesticide and watered the pots with bacillus thuringiensis before flowering went into full bloom. That was four days ago. No more signs of gnats.

These are three plants that are a few days from harvest. I always pull my plants out of the grow area a week before harvest and put them in a dark area for a week. I have seen plants solidify and frost up more doing this. Two of these are road runner #2 and one is a g13 labs diesel. Don't waste your money on these seeds. Phenos are not stable and I was supposed to have ten feminized seeds but ended up with four males. You will see in the last picture of harvested buds from a g13 labs diesel. It smells great but the buds are so airy that it wasn't even worth growing. Smells like a mix of diesel fuel and fruit loops. The road runner smells very similar but a little less fruity.

I'm glad I made some Spyder seeds. The only bank that carries them is out of stock. Only bad part is that I just harvested the seeds and they will need to be in the refrigerator for a month before I try to germinate them. I also made some (Ogre x spyder) and (Pinkbud x Spyder). I ended up with 45-60 seeds per plant that was pollinated. I didn't fully blast the plants with pollen.

Hey STB, question for you on container size you use for Autos, how big does the container truly need to be? I ask because I am tent growing in a 4x4, if I use 3 gal smartpots I can get 6 tops in, I am growing under a 8 bulb 4' T5 HO setup. If I stay in 1 gal pots needless to say I can get more in the big tent. Sometimes more plants does not end in a bigger yield though.

Thanks in advance.
