Dennis 62 simple grow #8

Yeah I agree 18 /6 light schedule photo plant definitely not the norm to be flowering at 4 weeks.

Seed was from a buddy of mine who bought them from seedking, but maybe miss labeled them, it’s the only thing I can think of. I assume that they are lambs breath autos he also bought from seedking??? All I can do is ride it out now. Well it was the last one so no more worries.

Was a mix up I’m sure by my buddy, how??? We have bought autos and fems from ilgm, Amsterdam and seedking. Next grow already set with seeds from seedceller, auto is Mexican airlines from 420 fast buds and a fem called lemon berry from ethos. Very excited but must wait to see a couple months from now lol.

You won’t be needing No Seeds for a while, sounds like you’re all set.

Well here we are at week 5 and I flipped to 12/12 as I always do, at first or spring i run one light 18 hrs, summer i add second light and in fall i cut hours to 12/12 and started flower nutes for both plants. Time frame is auto driven, I was supposed to be on photo time which would have longer veg. Not really happy with the structure of both plants, I don’t think my yields are going to be great, purple is better but both streached and did not get a lot of bud sites. I was worried I was too close to lights and turned out I could have been closer. The recommended hight is 12 to 15 inches, I got streach with those numbers. These new lights have me vexed, I’m a believer in what they do for the flowering period, doubled my yields! But that was from plants I vegged with my burples. My lights are 3000k but also comes in a 4000k, the 4 hlg says better for veg, the 3 better for seed to harvest. But I’m pretty sure I can build a better plant with my burples, they can run closer to plant and have more blue spectrum than my boards. I’m still thinking about it lol. Anyway guys here are pictures, purple first, pineapple second.

@Bulldognuts @kellydans @kcj @ReconBravo till next week happy growing yall

You’re plants look very happy and healthy. I really like the shape of the first plant that’s going to end up making you one killer plant. Lots of buds.

I use my 450 Viparspectra’s for seedlings and a few weeks into veg. I’ve had really nice node spacing using them this way or at least I’m happy with results. With the training I do I will have several colas per plant and buds from top to down where I remove everything. I’m not completely sure if it is the result of using the Viparspectra’s but since I like the results I see no point in changing things. Here’s a example of what I’m saying about spacing and the colas filling in.

Yes very impressive stacking, and super frosty my friend. I have better results from my burples on node spacing so will go back for like you said seedling to mid veg… I have true wattage 140w, it’s a 300w mars hydro but dose a nice job creating nice bushy plants with better yield.

Week 6 guys, they are done with the streach and looks like they are going to fill out okay. Purple who went into flower on her own at week 3, she doubled to 24 inches, pineapple is 32. Not really happy with the structure but it appears I will get a fair yield. I’m running full flower nutes now and stopping grow nutes, both flower time, and pk booster have some N anyways. Flowering nutes, then this week’s pictures, purple first then pineapple.

@ReconBravo @Bulldognuts @kellydans @kcj Hope all are well, till next week :smile:

@Mark0427 one plant was supposed to be photo but both flowering like autos. Small grow but every grow has challenges

@Dennis62. So do u just grow autos.? Im more interested in wanting to learn them as they are a bit more of a challenge. Besides i only have a homemade 4×7×8 grow room. I started off with 3 photos and tgen learned about auto seeds and wanna give them a good shot. I ordered a few seeds from I<3GM. W.W. and Zkittles. I have 2 other autos from another company bubblegum and cheese. So far i think im on the right track but this pandemic had us off for so long that i read and watched so many videos and stories i figured why not give it a try. Next thing i know my wife popped in some photo seeds from a sativa strain that were chronic. Dude who grew it i shit u not called it donald trump. And i seen why. Was one of the best smoke i smoked since some cheese quake. Well anyways. If u have any lointers on anything please ferl free and throw them my way. Im hard headed but pointy things stick. Always up for new learning experiences. Especially if u do any kind of lst or finning. Supercrop anything in them categories. I have some seeds to give it a whirl and i have 2 ww and 2 zkittles that popped out of dirt on the 7th of this month. I can try some stuff with these of u have any good leads that will better my grows. Got 18 ww af. 18 zkittles af. 4 cheese af 2 cream cbd af 2 bubblegum autos. Let me know on some ideas.

Looking great, the shorter one still my favor I like the bud structure on it almost like snowballs. I had a JH auto couple years ago started out looking just like that finished up being a really nice plant.

Yeah the cones don’t get great big but yeah all those hairs you know what the finished product is tons of red hairs lol. The taller one I’ve grown before and her buds will be nice, but not not a great yield this go round. These hlg lights will give best buds I can get. So will see :smile: thanks man

Well I started with photos, and cheap blurple lights. I was happy getting 2 plus ounces off each plant I grew, I top all my plants at 8 to 10 nodes giving me 16 to 20 branches and as many buds as I can get on those branches. My grow space is 2x4x6 so I have to keep plants to 36 inches, and they each fill 2x2. For me I get really good results so I have not tried lst or other types of training, sorry can’t help there. Like I said I was happy to get a couple ounces, but my last grow I grew 3 plants in my space, and got 3+ ounces off 2 autos and 4.8 ounces off my photo because I upgraded my lighting and doubled my yields! !! Almost 3/4 of a pound of nice bud with just lights and a fan in my closet man that’s so cool. My daughter grows outdoors and I help her and a couple friends here also grow indoors and out we all learn and share among ourselves is awesome. Right now I have 9 different weeds in my smoke stash. As far as autos go I have had good and bad results with them, I have a couple strains I will keep grow like pineapple express auto from AMS and lambs breath auto from seedking. Both of them had nice dense buds, some autos did not produce good bud, maybe smoked okay but not good bud, and some other issues due to Ruderalis gene that makes them autos. They usually will flower 4 to 5 weeks old. And some earlier!!! Some go many weeks you just don’t know lol. I do 2 to 3 plants per grow and mix photos and autos with hopes the auto finishes quick and then more room for photos, don’t always work tho. Autos work if you get good genetics, me and my friends tried a few and some of the seeds I threw away, Ruderalis has weird stuff along with the flowering when ever it wants lol… I am trying a new auto strain next grow called Mexican airlines from fast buds 420, I’ve heard they are good breader, will see… anyway that’s what I do, you got a lot going on in your grow space, looks like fun, kids of all ages lol. I am old and really lucky to have a stash that never runs out my friend. Growing is so fun and rewarding, I’ll keep at it, if you got questions holler, I’ll try to help or we can find someone who can…
