I found most Indy heavier stuff prefers 18-6 , acually I run everything 18-6 it’s just easier, no problems with it anything over 20 imo slowed them after seedling stage but I’m new like you ! Lol

i kept reading 20/4... and did whatever i wanted, anyway, with no complaints, from the autos, from 24/24, to 12/12, when i had photo clones, to force... no doubt, the output, suffered, which is y i quit em. I'd prefer to give my appliances, the afternoons, off ;P . cheaper, flowering n darkness...
i don't remember, if banana og is same, but gG, really liked the banana og, of whatever strains i had goin around that time. believe it, too, was a- euro-auto.

plus, the loss of the genetics, with each n every auto, unless ur down, to male out a branch, or knock em up ... no clonin.

I’ve cloned 3 times around 20 g off shit I was thrashing. But I had room and wanted to see if I could, not really worth the effort.
This is how bad genetics can b these two plants are out of same seed package,a supposed reputable one, same medium same dates same feed and you can’t even tell they are related !!!!

newer, in demand, strain?
would naturally have more phenos vs strength in strain, like ur northern lights should've had, before the crime scene, photos. no? just a guess. even the f... i forget... might have been gth... one was significantly, redder, than others. don't think it was the acetylene torch i put em under.

Would it be any trouble for the autos for me to switch the lights from 12/12 to 18/6? I want to start 6 photo seeds. I've been searching the internet, and there's no clear answer.

No they are not photo sensitive that way. But if you see leaf stress back off the light a little while they adjust to the longer day.

@SPARECHANGE The Banana Kush would be giant, but I used it for the solo cup challenge until it started to flower, and then I transplanted it. It stayed short and stunted, but I'll still get a harvest out of it.

I'll fight with the timer tomorrow morning, then, and get my tent set up for the six seeds (Blackberry OG CBD, Blue Magoo x Hyper Cherry Pie, and Chemgopher). My final grow of the year. I plan on travel at Christmas and like the idea of having the time off. By then I'll have tons of oil and butter and all sorts of edibles and will be comfortably medicated, with gifts for everyone that helped my sister and I through last year.

The decarb box will hold about 40 to 50 grams of flower.
The thermometer works well too.
It cuts the smell down about 85% compared to a dish with foil over it.

Banana Kush - End of week 10. Might be ready. Should I wait another week?

Tangerine Dream auto is limp with fan leaves yellowing. 58 days old. She perks up when I feed her cal/mag and nutes, and seems to be flowering okay. She wants to be watered more frequently than my other plants. In the last week she's really gone from looking happy to droopy most of the time. I won't grow this strain again.

Alaskan Purple auto seems fine and perky. 28 days old.

Blackberry OG CBD sprouted 3/1 ahead of Blue Magoo, but they have also sprouted. Chemgopher hasn't sprouted yet, but it's user error, I dropped them into the fat holes in the pellets, and normally I poke a hole in the bottom and push them down inside. Seeds are just laying there at the bottom. No baby gophers yet.

That Kush looks fat and happy!

Hi farmers!

3/2/20 I transplanted the Blackberry OG CBD and Blue Magoo x Hyper Cherry Pie seedlings to larger pots. They are growing strong. The 2 Chemgopher did not germinate, so I started 4 more on 3/4/20 with two mystery seeds that were given to me last year.

Tangerine Dream Auto is stacking flowers and seems to be doing well. She is 10 weeks old.

3/4/20 Banana Kush was harvested and hanging in the closet.

3/5/20 I pinched the top of the Alaskan Purple Fem Auto. It’s growing fast.

This round I’m trying Mega Crop as fertilizer (freebie) and will continue with cal/mag and Great White Myco. Roots Organics potting soil. For lights, I’m using a HLG 65 v2 4K and HLG 100 V2 4K.

My first batch of sugar leaf gummies turned out great, except they were very weak. I need at least 3 to feel any effects. I will use bud next time for a true test. Thank you for all your help.
