A Mix Of Auto's

[Quagmire]

Just call me nobody

Hey Nobody... thanks for popping in man.. appreciate it..

I have a sugar black rose that is looking promising.

I have a sugar black rose that is looking promising.

Feel free to post her up here man.. sounds interesting

 

[3N1GM4]

Cant really see it on the pics but she has black veins and already stinks

 

[Quagmire]

She looks to have a nice structure to her man.. is this an Auto ?

I finally took a few shots this morning of each plant and groups of same strains together.. looks like only 1 female of the 6 will be a poor yield, but, it's a new cross and I think I'll be walking away from this one.. Sniper is a no go IMHO.. but DV8R is looking really nice. Both have same father, Godzilla Grape #5 x Maxine/Superfreak
Seems like when strains share genetics I get better results and DV8R has the Maxine/Superfreak in it crossed with Deimos instead of GG#5.
Sniper has AK47 x Sour60 and just has way to much stretch and not enough budsites..

First up: DV8R

 

[Quagmire]

Next up is the 3 sniper.. one looks pretty nice but the overall structure is not to appealing to me.. got to many others that way out perform it..

 

[Quagmire]

Bad Red Bitch is probably the furthest along and smells wonderful.. I seeded her up with a female BRB to make me some F2 seeds, she's a sure fire keeper

No the black rose is a fast version, there is a smoking gun auto right behind her.

I'm here pimpin,just been down for a couple days. BRB is looking nice,like the structure of her.. I'm sad non of mine made it into adult hood.
My treacle is stacking up nicely though.
Please keep it going here, your doing a great job for information.

Hey Str8.. thanks man. Still learning about these auto babies myself. Finding out with the right soil you really don't need to feed them much ya know.. but still, trying to get my own feeding schedule put together from notes.. getting close.
Hey, feel free to post any of your own photos here ok..
I've got great hopes for the DV8R cross and she's starting to get a nice sweet smell of grape from the GG #5..
Did I tell ya all of these got pollinated by my male BRB ?? my goal was to make some F2's of the BRB to keep her around and decided to make some pre-flower pollination seeds from all of them..
Taking a quick break from Auto's to grow some Pacifica's G13 x Black Widow a buddy of mine said was snuck out of a breeding lab many a moons ago and somehow I wound up with them years later.. he wants me to grow them out next so, why not..
So next grow is: Pac13 x BW, LBL & Kate: SFV OG x Chemdog.
Best male drops the pollen here too..3

Hey, let me know if you'd like some Auto's to try out ok.. be glad to have someone else testing these 1st attempt at seeding ok..
peace

 

[Quagmire]

Well, as I approach closer to the end of this grow I remain surprised by some plants I pretty much had written off earlier..
Sniper.. has made one heck of a comeback and filling out much better then I"d ever thought.. now to see if the smoke holds up as strong as the BubbleguN mom which is AK47 x Sour60 and real 2 hit shite..

 

[Quagmire]

I learned a good lesson doing my hobby breeding, never give up on a plant until she finishes.. early on Sniper was unimpressive and I thought she was a loser. As she stretched and grew her buds I was like, omg was I wrong.. with a little more work, like adding the male BRB I just did, if I can get her to fill out just a bit more she'd be perfect..
First up is the 2nd DV8R plant and then the 1st of the 3 Sniper and both got the chop tonight... Day 65 and Day 60.

 

[Quagmire]

Sniper

 

[str8smokn]

DV8R looks mighty fat. How tall was that main cola on her?
Doing good man.
STR8

 

[Quagmire]

Thanks man... I'm cruising thru your grow thread right now..

The main cola got to about 9" tall and the plant itself was just over 2ft.. I found out if you flip the lights to 12/12 for a few weeks they stretch a bit , my guess is they still have enough regular genetics breed into them to respond to it.. I've done this twice now out of 4 grows and it for sure causes them to react.. then I go back to 18/6 and then the last week to 10 days.. 24/0.. Just experimenting and learning Auto's and what all can be done with them.. so far they are tuff suckers and not seen any hermie issues from stress... sweet.

 

[Quagmire]

Some finished bud shots next to a full sized bottle of Cal n Mag and also full sized mason jar for canning.
6 plants every 65 days and getting an average of 1.5oz per plant I just cannot complain, Auto's RULE.

 

[Quagmire]

My next run will not be Auto's however as a friend asked me to run a few of the regulars and make him some seeds of stuff he sent me a while back so I am.. Pacific's G13 x Black Widow and for me I've added SFV OG x Chemdog and SFV OG x JC2 called Long Bottom Leaf by Loran.. or LBL.. and Celtic Stone by Deadvet..

 

[Seraphim19]

I see your projects coming along nicely! it is nice to see you having success

 

[Eric Han]

Good stuff man. Did you guys go to school for this or is this a favorite past time thing.

No schooling other then experience man.. I got the growing bug about 9-10yrs ago and got my start when I found a site called "Planet Skunk" and seed people were actually growing in their closets.. I thought to myself, shit, I can do that.. My 1st setup was actually an old stove range top with 10 CFL's in it.. LOL.. worked ok but now I look back and laugh.. Most of my experience comes from being on grow sites and making great friends who've helped me more then I can ever repay.. Tried every soil on the planet and MANY strains with the majority coming from my friend Motarebel who found out I was disabled and since 2007 I've never had to buy a seed..

Learned a lot the hard way and some of the best advice I can give you is:
Take good notes
If you find something that works great for you, don't change it.
KISS.. Keep it simple st_pid.
Don't over feed or over water.
Start 3x's the seeds you need in plants
DON'T TELL ANYONE, EVEN GOOD FRIENDS..

Auto Flowering is new to me with this being just my 4th grow of them.. I'm hooked. 6 plants harvested in 65 days = 9oz how can you complain right?

Roots Organic soil is the best I've found to date along with their foods..
Germinate until you get 1-2" tails before planting into soil..
Give more seeds away then you get, Karma will repay ya 10 fold..

I thank everyone for all your nice comments and this thread here is pretty much done although I may put up some done/dry bud shots soon..
God Bless and grow em fat & green...
