Really cool. I find this strain very interesting and think it would be fun to see the many places you could pull off growing it without anyone noticing what it was. I like the pheno with the single broad leafs.

Yeah, great camouflage. Had autos in between tomatoes, people within a foot from the plants and they didn't notice.

I do too. It's been fun interesting to watch them grow. Definitely glad Im preserving the strain by using CS water. If I can get enough seed to do an outdoor grow may go all out around fall time. Summers in the sunshine state too brutal come June through 1st of September. But yeah unless you know what you looking at easy to hide amongst tomato's or hibiscus.

Brewing some CS water this morning. Distilled water, cell phone charger, air pump, glass Mason jar and pure silver rods. Thank god for the internet and a wonderful time to be alive. You can learn so much from forums like this. Hell I remember browsing OG for hours. Been running now for about two hours. Gonna run for a couple more. I do have a laser pointer. Right now can see Alot of silver floating.

What's the word on the ducks?

Sorry been busy. But progressing good.

Today is moving day for 1 of my ducks. CS water a complete success. Just hoping I caught it fast enough. The pollen sacks that is. First pic are my reversed duck. Let me tell you she was/is hard to turn. She is fighting still.


I probably going to do another slight defoliation.


Here is some eye candy.

Looking awesome man! That's cool that you are taking the time to make some more fem seeds. I think the mutation is very interesting.

That's where I'm kind of lost ATM. Each one has a phenotype. Some are webbed and narrow some are webbed and board. Don't know if I should pollinate sections of all 3 or pollinate sections of just 1 or?

I'd say the first time around pollinate sections of all of them and see what comes out. From there you'll have a good seed bank to start selecting the phenos you like and can try to breed your ideal Autoduck from those. I personally like the broad leaf ones better. They look less like pot than the narrow leaf ones.

So I researched AutoDuck before I bought the seeds. I'm well aware the webbed weed plants tend to have Cal mag problems. But this is not Cal mag issues.

I have plenty experience growing photos and autos. But i have a green thumb. Don't consider myself as a textbook term "professional".

But I switched fertilizer from my regular bone meal epsom salts tea. But guess I'm dealing with nitrogen burn? I don't think it's nitrogen lock out. But guess I need to flush these ladies for a couple days. Then resume on my tea from here on out. I know it's not light burn. Cause usually with light burn there will be some bleaching.

But they are still plugging along. Did some LST on the female I plan on polleninating.

First pics are in the tent. Second set is my reversed female outside. She being slow to realise the pollen.

Any updates?

Sorry been busy.

They have been plugging along. Really set the plants behind by burning them when I switched fertilizer. Lesson learned.

AutoDuck seems sensitive to a High NPK ratio. Definitely seems prefer low ratio simple fertilizer.

According to DP strain description it's claimed 11 to 12 weeks. I'm roughly 9 weeks. I can see it going to 12 or 13. Considering the stealth aspect... Kind of hard to say I'm impressed. Really no stable phenotypes. Alot of sativa dominant strains. Smell is non existent.

I've also been having one hell of a time trying to get the reversed female to set decent amount of pollen. They open produce little pollen. The brown. I do have a few swollen sections. Obvious seed growing. But I even brought her/him back into the tent.

On a side note some of the sativa dominant plants I've had to tie the branches up to the main stalk. They kept dropping.

The end is near. Grow tent coming down tonight or tomorrow. According to the calendar is pushing 12 weeks. They look tired.

I do got me some seeds from what I can tell they're brown. I pluck the seed here about a few days ago. It was green and solid but eventually turn black.

Unfortunately I got seeds on all the plants not many. Hard to believe that my runt and another plant show the same traits which I liked. I was trying to isolate phenotypes. The two others showed a sativa dominant traits. Really light fluffy buds. Got seeds in those two.

Luckily the Indica dominant plus my runt I think they're going to create a beautiful phenotype. The runt / sperm donor showed awesome webbing. Both of which showed awesome webbing and indica dominant traits.

I've got mixed feelings about growing a sativa dominant seeds not sure if Indica dominant will show next go-round.

Overall it's a low odor plant. At times practically no smell. The fact that it is webbed. Huge Plus on the camouflage I aspect. I'll admit early on it does get kind of confusing whether or not it's a weed plant. They look more along the lines of nettle/hibiscus plant. But once the fan leaves start dropping they do start looking more along the lines of a weed plant the older they get.

Definitely glad I did try to bring some seeds definitely want to continue working with this strain. Very unique strain. Like I said it's highly variable on the phenotypes. Sativa dominant seems to rule. Considering the stealth aspect of it and a few bugs that are in it auto duck to be worked with and possibly made into one huge gem.

I'll give a smoke report later. Not sure if I want to try to smoke the sativas or make butter out of them.

Great grow! This was a lot of fun to watch. A very unique strain indeed and one that I'm sure would be enjoyable to grow. I'll stay tuned for the smoke report. Overall great job!
