It's a crime - such a lovely tree...with no lights and decorations!! Although...it is very very sparkly!!
few more weeks I'd imagine. I started to run the lights at 12/12 get s little more dark period in there.
great idea about the lights, I would think it would benefit them as well.
Looking great, makes me want to do a run of autos..... maybe this spring for a summer harvest
there all at different stages lol since I tried different things on each one.
Thanks hick! Hopefully lol. I have to leave for 3 days tomorrow morning. So should be intersting see progress when get back
That is like me - 5-6 days,dying to c the girls!
Out of interest...why 12/12? Only ever heard of one auto-strain like that, is this similar? Just very curious, as I have come across mostly 20/4 or 24...even though I like them to have a little dark, so will settle for 16-18 hrs
Lol, even on window sills in british weather and winter light hours (9-10) one can still pull it off...the beauty of autos!!
Heard about the dark period for resin as well...very curious!
This one I know very well - yay, i can return one of the advises!!!
Ok, so opinions do vary a little, as some say that senescence occurs naturally and there is no need to flush your plants, although this tends to be truer if organic ferts only have been used throughout.
Others, myself included, prefer giving a final few heavy waterings with just water. My opinion is that this could flush any excess salts which had formed (although in most soil grows with organicnutrients these tend to be minimal.
Incidentally, you probably know already, but with some auto strains colour of hairs and/or trichomes is not the teller on when they are ready - the leaves are what give it away, the plant going into natural senescence. I have seen quite a few tests on various forums - if you need more info, let me know, i do not want to teach granny how to suck eggs!
)She is just yummie!!!
Would growing it longer have a negative effect?? Just asking coz it looks like the leaves are still very green, even the fan ones, which to my mind means that the plants are still not in final stage? I know it also depends on high one wants to achieve, so just curious (again!
usually with photo's i let them tell me when the time is right, by yellowing of the fans....then flush for two wks or so.
but its really up to the grower and like said before what is preferred.
Looking great though!
). (phenos, 30-50%), so for my grow I plan to start flushing just before all fan leaves are yellow. As he said, mostly down to taste preferred and high.
with phenos, as a rule of thumb (like almost everything as strains can be soooo different!) we say they're ready @80% trichomes right? The equivalent rule of thumb for autos appears to be for most/all of the bud leaves to have yellowed (fan leaves even fall off in this period).
As you know, my first auto grow as well, but it's just what I have got from all the research (loads, i cannot believe it myself sometimes!! Yet still ignored the hot soil recommendations...but that is another story!
Personally, i tend to be an early cutter
There is no excuse for leaving them alone...but for fishing!!
Did u catch anything nice??
Plants looking a little under tone....but u will still get some nice smoke by the looks of it!!
