No need to check trichs yet. That plant has at least 2 more weeks to go, 3 to be sure. She has some fatting up to do. Keep her on the diet you kept her until now. She'll start drinking less when she comes nearing the end of her life cycle.

I was thinking 4weeks left from looks. But anyway you still have a bit. No orange hairs yet.

I didn't even consider the hairs, I think 4 more weeks makes her 15/16 weeks, but I've not looked after them as well as I should have. Just gonna concentrate 1 at a time next time round :)

Also @Toaster79 and @str8smokn, have I come to a bad situation, running out of one boost and having to changing to another?

So you have run out of flower feed and are switching to different brand of food?
Not sure how it would effect it. What's the NPK value on both of them?

I have a question about if I should be using 600 watt, or 1000 watt hp for vegging 8 that just sprouted, and how far away the hood should be for them..

str8smokn · Nov 2, 2015

If they are still new seedlings leave under CFLs until second node then put 600 Wt over at 2' above . Put your hand at canopy level if the light it's hot on your hand then it's HOT on your plants too. Then about week 5 (should be roughly week 3 of flower )put 1000 wt above for the umph... To the finish
That's me though..
Or you could bypass the 600 and go str8 big Boy 1000 at about 2.5 ' from canopy maybe. I have not gotten there yet,but soon.

I did just set em to 1000 .. Although there is so little heat coming from the hood that am able to keep it at 2" easy.

Thanks again STR8 !

I've still got plenty of bio-flores, I managed to get a little bit of their bio booster. But I have got nearly a full bottle of bigbud booster, white bottle green writing, I'll check the values later on

Hello everyone!
First time poster on here, and first time grower. I´ve wanted to try my hand at this for a while but never wanted an indoor grow. Now I´m living in the south of Spain, I thought I´d try my hand at outdoor growing.

I bought two seeds, a White Widow Auto XXL and a Deimos auto my my local grow shop. They´re sitting in soil with Perlite and I´m using the nutes you can see in the picture. They are outside on my balcony and have good, strong sunlight from 8am to about 7pm each day. The temperatures are between 24 and 32C each day if that helps.

They´ve been in a pot from day one, and today is day 34. I have three questions for you guys, the first is just one of basic progress. I´ve been looking through this thread (Which, by the way, is fucking mint) and I know I´m comparing to indoor grows, but mine seem pretty small.

1. How do you think they are doing?
2. On one of the plants, they are so many white pistils, and on the other not so many. Should I start it on Flower nutes yet? or should I wait another week?
3. Is there anything I can do to give them some light from 7pm for a few hours that would increase the size of the plants? It would have to be a fairly cheap solution as I don´t have a lot of money to lay out, and I don´t want to be hit with a nasty electricity bill next month!

Thanks in advance, hope one of you experts can help!
P.s keep up the good work, the information you´re providing is invaluable!

She's getting there slowly ;) can't wait haha, patience is not one of my better traits

str8smokn · Nov 8, 2015

@BigEd looking good my man..
Can you label the plants so we know what we are looking at?
Are both plants the same hieght? The Demois is a lowryder cross I think,if so she will be only about 1.5' tall by finish maybe.. The XXL white widow should hit atleast 3' . They will continue growing hieght while starting to flower,no worries on hieght yet..
I would wait until the plants stop stretching,then start flower feed. You can mix Veg food and flower food . I mixed mine at 3/4 veg and 1/4 flower feed after second week of flower,then just water and next 1/2 veg 1/2 flower on up until you get to where it's just flower food.
Hope this helps..

For extra light just bring in under acouple CFLS like a 100wt at least.

all of this has given me a much better understanding so thanks guys very good informative post! I've started my first grow & I guess like all new growers just want as much knowlage and info as I can get! wondering if anyone's had any experience growing auto white diesel haze they're from sensi seeds, are these a reputable supplier? has anyone grown them and got pics, tips what to expect anything really thanks in advance, fry.

str8smokn · Nov 12, 2015

Sensi seeds has been around since the beginning, with that said I haven't grown out any of their stuff.
It should come out good. I'm interested,I like diesels!

fryhigh · Nov 13, 2015

the main reason I picked sensi is just cuz I'd heard of them if that makes sense when the seeds came they was actually labeled as white label seed company I don't know wether sensi sel they're products or wether it's like a sister company or something but I've seen good comments about them! I've actually read this post since page one think it's probs the best for autoflower on the net. my seedlings are about 5-6 days from breaking soil right now as previously mentioned this is my first grow and learning a lot already il upload few pics just for views on health and if things are going correctly..

str8smokn · Nov 13, 2015

The White brand is a sister company of sensi seeds.
They are off to a good start.
Good luck

fryhigh · Nov 13, 2015

another question I've got is atm I've got a 300w dual spectrum cfl I was thinking of adding more red spectrum cfls when in flower will I need it? how much more would I need if so I have 4 autos as you can see in pics.

Well the amnesia is down and hanging, slightly short 5 day flush but, I don't think I had much choice plant had almost died looking at her before the chop, but there was a nice bit of weight on that top colon. Been hung since Saturday lunchtime :)

The og kush turned out dreadful, and the blue cheese is taking her time, more than likely due to my miss timing of feeding nutes, to many nutes etc. But a noob with nutes so..
