Autos with a evil touch!

[SmokeyTheBear]

In your first pics, it looks like you topped your plants a couple times. Do you find that autos respond well to topping?

Certain strains react well. If you have a strain that starts flowering right around 20 days. It would be pointless to top. Some autos are later like my sour secret. They start showing sex at 30 days and they react very well to topping. Find out when your strain starts to flower and it could work out very well for you. Another strain that worked out great with topping was Canned Abyss' Spyder.

Thanks STB!

Thanks STB!

I've noticed with autos. That they like nitrogen late into flowering. Plants that are green longer have a lot more sugar production in my experiments and end up tasting better and have a lot more crystals. You aren't lacking trichomes but there could be so much more. You might even have a root bound nutrient lock out problem. I wouldn't stop feeding plants nitrogen until they look like the plants in your recent pictures. I start using clearex when I think the plants are around two weeks from harvest.

Thanks for taking the time to share your views with me, much appreciated
I tend to think that less is more when comes to feeding but this said i´m having HUGE feeding issues since i left the UK and came down South. Different soil, different nutes, different temps&humidity, different pests&diseases, et tal ...a pain in my skinny ass if i may say so
I also not very experienced&educated when comes to cannabis cultivation and even less on the automatic side of it, so it´s always good to have input from more experienced&educated ones, thanks again.
Do you think that i still got time to give them a good feed? I admit that i was already reducing nutes.
I don´t use Clearex or any other Flush helper and to be honest i don´t feel like bringing another bottle to my cabinet
Sorry for picking up your brains...

Today was Horsetail foliar day and i took a few more shots under natural light.
Sadly the pics weren´t properly uploaded...my bad

best solum.

I think you would be safe giving them one more heavy feeding and then just water after that.

Thank you STB

Thank you STB

I think you would be safe giving them one more heavy feeding and then just water after that.

I´ll do that then, next watering i´ll add some CannaBio Flores and Boost. Today i´ve finally took the time to read into the CannaBio range specs, it was won on some photo contest over the net , and i must say that it might be the cause of some of the deficiencies.
Not sure that the Hop Brew and Tropical Plants Extract has all the needed NPK and microelements needed for my environment, strains and lazy methods.

I´m gonna get some other range that i´ve used in the past and swap to it on the next grow, this said i am not happy because i´m sure that in the end i´m the one responsible for all that goes on my grows, not the nutes, mea culpa mea maxima culpa.
And if i keep changing the variables i make it all harder on myself...


Ah btw Happy Easter to all cannabis bunnies around here

Few shots that finally allow me to upload them.

Today i´ll finally have all the new Mephisto autos on their second pots.
In a week time i´ll pot them on their final pots, 7 and 9Lts, depending on availability.
The SourCracks are looking a bit bloated after me being silly and fed them again when they had plenty of food available.
Shots to come when i find the time.

Happy Friday guys.
Has promised i´ve uploaded a few more shots of the Sour Crack ladies.

Happy Saturday good people.

Hello guys.
Today it was a good one. Tending auntie´s garden is a monthly task that always warms my heart. This year i´ll find courage to tell her about cannabis and i can see a couple of big tree growing in there

beautiful - are you happy with the meph genetics?

Well happy my friend, well happy.
I´ll share some proper reports along the way.

Soon its time to taste

go go go

Yep, May is auto tasting month

Thanks for the input guys

Sour Crack Harvest Day

Sour Crack Harvest Day

Starting to gain weight huh

Go go go

Sadly they are now on the process of loosing around 90% of their weight...











They were in 7lts of BioBizz Allmix, with the odd feeding with Canna Bio Flores and some microbes under 250HPS 18/6 on 1square meter.
I predict in between 175gr to 200gr, so it was not a bad run.

24Carats and SourBubbly, 6 each, are already on the exact same set-up.

Great yields considering the amount of light and liters of soil !

Glad i went with 10 liters , previously 16 L but opted for 10s to see how much could be gained out of those

 

[paulo73]

I´m yet to decide if i pot up a couple of each autos going on at the moment to a 11lts to see the difference in the end. I just need some soil for that and i´m not sure i´ll get it in time for that.
Thanks for the kind words Ollie.
