Pm is gone. I used this for my pm---Mix 1 tbs of baking soda and 1/2 tsp liquid hand soap with one gallon of water.

My first time using bamboo to hold colas from falling over. Its not that difficult. Next time round I will start the plants as longs with bamboo already in there

Nice grow room, ABC. Those lil gals look happy!

Thanks man, I've worked a lot of problems out this grow. I learned so much this time, next grow should be even better!!

1 strain, 1 growing medium.
 
It's a 5x5 with one 630w cmh

I'll try to remember to take some pics of the plant I picked up from BL. It had the same issue as HH's; it tried to bloom early in spring and then went back to growing mode.
I didn't remove as much material as he did, but I did semi-lollipop it last weekend.
It's in a burlap potting bag thingie outdoors in full sun and gets watered two or three times a week.

Kind of a "I grow weed by sticking it in the ground and occasionally watering it" barometer for the rest of you. :laughing
 
Weeks 7 and 8 for the plants in the Space Buckets


I raised the nutrients for both to full strength (as per a 12 week guide, not the stock). One was yellowing but recovered nicely.

Incidentally I upped them to 20 hours of light and 4 hours dark because apparently some people even do 24 hours a day for autoflowers.

I read up on them since I had no idea where they originated or how they were bred and it turns out they're all careful cross breeds with a Russian/Siberia where they'd not get that much light

Yeah I heard you can run autos on 24 hr light too. I would just do that man. You will get a fat crop quick :stoned
 
I typically run 24hrs for the first week from baby sprouts, then switch to 20/4 or 18/6.
 
I don't know much about autos, but my veg never gets a rest. Been 24 hours since before the Bush W administration.

Plants don't need to sleep, but flowering plants (no idea about auto flower) need a sleep cycle to stay in said cycle. AF may be different, but I don't know.

Your professional opinion what is the right humidity for a home grower? SHould I be keeping it high throughout the grow? I know some people even lower humidity at the end.
 
I run mine at 60% during veg maybe a little more, and 50ish during flower.
