It's hard to keep mothers of auto flowering plants. Isn't it??

 

[DrBudGreengenes]

Why you say that?
I got 3 Jack's Poison plants and just found out that they are on auto flower. Most of them are female.
Is it bad to grow auto flower strains indoor?

I just don't think Ruderalis Genes should have ever been brought out of USSR they are going to be popping up at the wrong time....after being reccessive for years

True, I think they only should used for out door grows though.

How do you keep auto flowering moms??? If it auto flowers how are you gonna have a mom??? That boggled my mind for a second.

 

[Berry_Coughin']

lol...autoflowering moms

 

[TheOneWill]

I'm just gonna keep clipping clones off the plants right before they start to auto flower.

 

[ScatMan]

You cant do that, as the cutting's cant be put back under 24/0 light because even under that light they will continue to flower...

 

[TheOneWill]

Well the clones that I got now aren't flowering. But I'll see. If it does flower oh well I always got extra seeds left over.

I always thought reud genetics werent capable of cloning. But ya those clones you have are genetically programmed to flower over a certain period of time and not based on the amount of light they get. You have more seeds so you should be ok.

I was reading up on it in the strain forum and they said its possible.

Been Lurking in this thread for a while. Awesome grow you have there Doctor. I have a stupid question. but i am trying to envision in my mind what you are doing.
i read in this thread that you said after you harvest you reveg and flower them again and you say you do this 3 times with the same soil without ever re-potting?

Can you please instruct in detail exactly how you are doing this?

Thx!

Well I grow them as I talked about in my thread...
I have my nutes "Dialed In" so they are using them as I add them......
I rinse them very well after every Flowering cycle....give them a good watering with fish emulsion and put them under 24 hour light until they begin to show "Normal" leaves again...
then I trim all but 2 branches off down low and flower them again .....I have 1 in front of me right now that is gonna go in for time #5 soon but that is rare....3 is the norm around here
This pic is some girlz gettin ready to go in for 3rd time

DrBGg.... in your flower box.... you are running all cfl? What kind of peak temps are you experiencing and what are/have you done to keep them in check...I'm assuming your flower cab is totally shut...so please elaborate a little on the air exchange and how you have manipulated it to keep it nice and comfy in there for your babes.....

I'll hang up while I listen to your answer...

 

[gromer]

You say yer on a mountain top?Any problems with cold and if so how do you deal.Everyone keeps sayin a small space heater in front of the intake but I thought the jedi master may have a special trick or two.Thannxx!!

 

[krly]

Hey Doc, I'm surprised no one's asked this yet....what kind (and when) of trimming do you do to end up with those "budsicles" ? Thanks for all the time you've put into this thread.
