I just started my first indoor grow, 3 different auto stains, 250w HPS

[dargo]

Yesterday I fed the 2 hungry auto white russian girls with some wilkinsons own brand £0.79p tomato food as I cant get any canna vega untill weekend.

ive never seen a plant so happy to get a feeding, the fan leaves have stopped going yellow and the plants have grown about an ince in under 24 hours

All the hairs I put the pollen on have started to brown and shrivel up

i just noticed that one of the auto white russians is missing a branch at the 2nd internode!?! it hasnt snapped off it just never grew one, not even a little stumpy one. il have to get a photo tomorrow as the kids are about now.

im going to start to flush the big auto white russian tommorow, the buds are fairly small popcorns however they are really dence and look pretty tasty, they look to be swelling up and hairs just starting to recead back into the buds. il alternate waterings with 1 mollases and water mix then next with straight water. il do this for 10-14 days then 48 hours dark. im not sure how much il get and what the quality will be like, i wont be able to fairly judge the auto white russian with this plant, il have to wait for the other 2 to finish. there looking good i can see nice top cola forming. one of them has grown about 1.2" in under 24 hours!

btw nice looking autos you got there

I asked for 2 cuttings, 1 for seeds 1 for smoke. I got to wait for him to take his own cuttings then around 2 weeks for them to root before I get them so it wont be until january some time before I get them, but thats all good cos it will give me time to finish off whats growing now and free up some space.....but then ive got 10 Mi5 on there way, and il have the seeds from my auto x auto crosses, and the haze i grew in the greenhouse crosses and......I think i need to make my grow space bigger!!

Instead of composting the males I put them both in the greenhouse a few days ago, temp has been between -4C (night) & 3C (day), they havnt grown atall, no more pollen sacks have opened, but they couldnt look happyer in there! I thought they would die or atleast look like they was going to! they look healthyer then the girls i got inside!!


Also, I noticed what looks like seeds in a few spots on the big auto white russian, I dont think it was from the males I had in there as I moved them out days before the pollen started to drop, and also the 2 plants I pollenated myself still only have there hairs dead, you can see any seed yet so they would be at the same stage I think (i hope), im hoping its done itself, I have been looking for sacks the last few weeks as the plant is now around 95 days old ive been expecting (hoping) her to throw some out so I can get some fem seeds which is what im hoping these growing on the girl are

Seeds in auto white russian, sorry picture qualitys not great

got my 10 Mi5 seeds today. they went out friday here monday so really fast delivery.

 

[the.rise]

so how many days staggered did you start these seeds from your current ones that are running?

 

[dargo]

i havnt started the Mi5's yet i need to get some canna soil before i can start them. i want to do them all together at the same time so i might put them together under the 2 x 125w cfl in the space above the grow cab untill i can weed out all the males appart from the one il use to mate with the best girl (come on you bush pheno!) and move the girls down under the hps.

 

[dargo]

i noticed a load more unintended seeds growing in the big auto white russian today. one of the pre flowers on the auto ak47 x auto blueberry must have opened really early and not been spoted as from what i read it takes about 2 weeks before you can see the green seed poking out and im sure i took the males out the grow cab days before i got my first pollen. the spots on the other plants i hit with the pollen dont have anything to see yet so it must have happened a week or so before i manualy pollenated them.

or been nearly 100 days old its thrown out bananas that i cant see and il have a load of fem seeds.

either way im not to happy about it as i wanted just the smoke now i got to leave it for x weeks for the seeds to fully grow.

on the plus side il have more seeds for the greenhouse next year. im going to grow so many in there at once i got butterflys in my belly already! ive always been restricted by height but now i can pack them in wall to wall



grow progress photos to follow........

 

[Mr.Meds]

HAHAHA! Take it as a positive! Should result in some excellent pictures for our viewing pleasures.

The 2 males have been in greenhouse over a week, its been no warmer than 2C and dipped as low as -5C. apart from not having grown atall they look really happy and healthy. is so cold now the greenhouse glass is covered in a sheet of ice all night and most of the day.

cold but happy male a

Ice on greenhouse



Im finding more and more seeds in my my big auto white russian girl. some of the buds are way over done but the plant is throwing out new white hairs all the time. If I did a partial crop of the over ready bits would the seeds left in the rest of the plant carry on growing or would the plant start to die and not finish the seeds

Day 31 (yesterday) for the 2 white russains, day 100+ for the biggest.

1 is growing short and stocky, the other is tallerer but thinner, both had a few problems but flushed them and now there getting back on track, minus a fan leaf or 2!

Big white russian is a bit fucked, most of the top half is over ready and alot of the bottom looks like it could have a few weeks left! I might have to decapitate her soon and leave the bottom to finish for a few weeks only its pretty well seeded now and dont want smoke full of half finished seeds that are no good to anyone.

Ready.......

Not ready......

 

[dargo]

the gaps in the big white russian are from where it streched when it was outside for so long with only 10 hours light a day, I havnt picked anything off her!

 

[the.rise]

with ur two girls at day 31, what problems did you run into that caused the yellowing tips? Im running into the same problem with an auto white russian X hindu kush. i believe its N but im not 100% yet.

 

[dargo]

im still not sure, i had to miss the last week of feedings when she was in veg state as i had no veg nutes left so it might be cause of the yellow. there in the rapid growth stage now with well over an inch going on her in the last 24 hours.

 

[the.rise]

wow.. im at day 28 and the rapid growth has yet to start, i too missed a veg feeding. what problems were you talking about then when you said you did a few flushes?

 

[dargo]

the bottom fan leaves yellowing and in photos i could see nute burn on the tips so i flushed a few times then few days later started to feed again. the yellowing seems to have stopped, the plants are shooting up at unbelivable speeds but now i notice all the leaves look sick, not as green and spotty, il have to take pics tommorow.

i can clearly see 2 different phenos in the LL auto white russian, 1 is growing very tall with really large side branches almost as tall as the top cola. the other 1 is growing very tight and compact side branches are tiny and nothing like her sister.

photo update tommorrow
