Just thought I’d share my most recent harvest. Just took the colas as the side branches can go for another week.
Green crack auto. 85 days from seed
Zkittlez auto 85 days from seed.
Nice! Is the green crack auto an ilgm seed? Don’t remember seeing those.
No, unfortunately it is not. I was in a hurry this spring to get my room going, (we became legal January 2020.). And never buying seeds online before, I just went with a seedbank per my buddy’s recommendation, as he had good luck with them in the past. At the time I bought them, I hadn’t found this forum yet, And didn’t become a member of this site till this summer. So I’m just using up all my auto seeds I purchased from them, then I want to try and do some photos from ILGM.
If you have too many feel free to send em To Australia mate we could always use more seeds down here 
I may by mistaken, but looks a little early? Lot of white pistils.
I was debating that for a week. I’m not sure…but I’m thinking the white pistils were from some foxtailing. I’m not 100% sure as I’ve never knowingly dealt with foxtailing. But as you’ve probably heard, the word on the streets is when the pistils are no longer sticking out, and have curled down around the bud. Seeing the newer pistils I kept thinking she wasnt ready. I checked trichomes last week and her cola was already 10% to 15% amber. But all the buds below are still slightly cloudy and no amber. I don’t like couch lock, so I don’t like them to get much past 25% amber. I had my light about 12” I’m afraid she was foxtailing. But if someone else can pipe in about foxtailing so I can know for sure, I’d love the input. Too late now for these lol…but I love hearing people’s opinions. I just didn’t want too much couch lock, and they just “looked ready” especially the trichs. They may have swollen little more…idk. But at 24 grams and 50 grams…(colas only) I was pleased with where they were and Iam more than ready to sample those girls!, lol. They smell like fruity goodness🤯
I’ve had 3 foxtails this season. One I had to pull well early because a storm snapped the main cola. The other two I’m attempting to let finish yet watching closely. Definitely couch lock, but still smokes up nicely. I don’t know a great deal about them
Either when it first happened I was thinking wtf is wrong with my
Plant. They were all gold leaf autos which I was surprised by. At any rate. It gets ya stoned.
Perhaps foxtailing was the deal. I grew some white widows from ILGM that fox tailed pretty badly, and never got very dense. You probably did the right thing.
Hope so. As you can see on the scale…these were very dense. Not bragging…but I’m pretty happy with a 50 gram cola off an auto that was 15” tall.lol. I just think I got little foxtailing towards the end, the tip of the bud had white hairs and the bud looked little different than the rest of the bud. I’ve read from a very accomplished grower on here and he kind of laughed it off and said he gets foxtailing on every grow. He said he just seems to have his plants right on the edge of “too much light”. I’ve also heard that it’s the plants last ditch effort to collect pollen. Idk… going by trichs I thinks it’s ready, this is only my second grow with autos. Can’t wait to sample it…she’s looks yummy. Thanks for the insight…it’s always nice to have few more eyes on your crop.
No problem, looks great. A person has to do what they thinks best at the time. I don’t typically get foxtailing, but I switched to a CMH 315 light, and I’m still learning it. I think I tend to keep it to close resulting in foxtailing and leaf burn. Every grow I do I learn something every time.
Me too, and I think most growers do as well. I got an old poker buddy that is pushing 70 and grown for 40+ years. He’s says he still learns something almost every single grow. So that tells me, perfection in growing cannabis is almost unreachable. Lol. Sure is fun trying tho. Stay safe and medicated 
May I ask how you fed your plants? I am looking for a similar outcome and this is my first auto run! I’m also growing zkittlez!
