First 4 X 4 Auto Grow

[gwheels]

Thursday pic (I will be busy tomorrow :D)

Just fed at 6.5 PH. Sticking to every other day watering which is making them look healthier.

Hopefully the PH being correct and a slightly stronger fertilizer will help remove that nitrogin deficiency green that is cropping up. I now measure the PH every time and make sure its right. No more PH 5.0 feedings

Lookin better, put some unsulphered molasses and gh blend or similar nute with kelp and stuff along with some mycos like in great white the day before you add your nutes/ph and feed. Your plants will green right up, they love a good tea. I add a few tablespoons of molasses, 5 or 6 teaspoons of Gh blend, and a scoop of great white to a 5 gallon bucket of water and put bubblers in it. The next day I add my nutes and ph it before feeding my plants. You can tell a difference in your plants by the next day.

I can do that. I bought 2 quarts of the unsulphured molasses from the health food store for just such an emergency. And I have kelp and squid nutes. I think I will nute like this
Day 1 water with calmag until advanced flower and then just water ? (or should i add some molasses to this too?)

Day 3 Molasses, bio squids(whatever its called) and kelp. I will adjust to get the ph right

Day 5 Nutes (growth/bud maxer and calmag until advanced flower and then no calmag)

even days are no water days and just repeat over and over until I get massive buds.

One other auto advantage.....you do have to take it easier on the nutes which results in less dicking around with PH. So I can do this and not need PH up...but its coming.

What is really awesome is no matter what happens this is the biggest yield I will have ever had indoors. Those trans siberians are throwing up so many buds. I am actually out of space to spread them out. :D what a fantastic problem.

Next time I get seeds I am going to get more of both of these (speed seeds trans siberian and canuck quarter pounder). But I might stick to 4 at a time. I think the yield will be very close because they can get the light better.

The next sale I see I am stocking up.

After the next full cycle I am trying out a photo run with 3 (sour kush, jack hereer, king tut). I just want to grow them because I think they will look beautiful. And I will have some PH up by this time so those bad boys are growing green and obscene. :D

And the top of the pic is light level. I just moved the light up 6 inches this morning because that back left trans siberian was within about 10 inches of the light. First time for that too.

I see that little baby in the bottom of the pic. Looks like you are already starting to go perpetual auto! You'll have more flowers then you'll know what to do with. It's going to kick ass.

I found myself right beside a hydro shop. So I went in and got a gallon of ph up. Problems are solved. I also got proper saucers for the planters and some clay pellets and 3 1/2 pots. I have a DWC system that came with a grow box. I will modify it to take a single plant with a 3 1/2 net cup and see how that grows the autos :D

And I had to take pictures !. The small one is a quarter pounder auto too. The bushy one is the quarter pounder. The others are trans siberian (AK47 crossed with white widow and ruderalis, i looked it up). And there is one shot adreneline in there too (white dwarf crossed with skunk and ruderalis)

I will probably have my best pic ever for the January contest :D lol. I am glad i checked out the plants. It is funny the seed pack says indica dominant but the russians are 40% AK47. So the sativa genes are coming out in the leaves. They started out with fat leaves and now they are all sativa looking. The quarter pounder looks indica.

What I find really funny is that seedling is 1 week younger than the plant that is middle left. That is a shot adreneline or an ultraviolet. It occurs to me I may have been high with my seeds and if it grows much bigger it has to be ultraviolet. Both are sativa dominant but one grows twice as big as the other.

I went to grief counselling today and well poking around in the garden and smoking a giant fat doobie of that beautiful kushy kush i grew is helping me to forget how much those suck.

And I am jacked i have ph up for a long time. I added calmag and the nutes i was missing from my last nute and the ph hit 5.0....and then i made it 6.8. Now that should make them happy.

I think I heard them all singing kumbaya after I close the tent.

This hobby is definitely a good stress reliever.

The raw diesel is trimmed and in the paper bag for a couple of days.an does it smell good. Total weight wa 46 grams trimmed. A new personal best for me. :)

 

[justiceman]

That's awesome! Glad to hear you broke your PB. Post up some dry flower shots when you get the chance.

 

[gwheels]

Here I I pic. The smell.is.so diesel.

 

[gwheels]

An it looks lik rhis

 

[justiceman]

Looks like some good frosty smoke.

 

[gwheels]

I had some and it's harsh as fuck but it needs to cure. It is in jars today. This is the first batch I have grown that took two half quart jars :).

I love this hobby.

I got my 26 year old a son a portable Vape. He agrees my hobby is awesome. An oz of top shelf weed for about 30 bucks and a lot of.love. )y typos are from this stupid BlackBerry phone.

 

[gwheels]

He moved back in with me to help out with my 10 year old and I promised all the weed he could vape. I have 4 oz on standby and a tent full of auto. :). And I truly love to perfect shit. He thinks it is crazy awesome and so do i. And-it is so tucked away in my basement it is invisible. But after these autos i am growing some photos. I have such awesome strains and 4 plants will vastly exceed my PB. And the good news is i will have a half pound on reserve for personal use LOL. Thanks to all that helped me and all the FAQS I am no pro but Seamaiden and the FAQS helped me be in the top 10% of knowing what to do. And the therapeutic benefit is ridiculous.

Thanks all of you !!!.

My life sucks but it wont always suck. And I have wicked good weed to get me through the inbetween. So much better than street weed, Organic autos at 22 to 24% and i believe it.

Sounds like your life is pretty good to me, you have your kids. I have a buddy that just lost his wife and kids because of meth, his wife left him after he got locked up and the state has his kids. He only gets to see them for a visit on weekends.
Praise God I still have my wife and kids, and that I never got hooked on meth or worse.

 

[justiceman]

Hell ya man! Thank you for being one of those who inspired me to get some auto seeds of my own. It's really cool.

Damn, thats some hard nocks right there. I'm thankful for what I have too, struggles and all.

I have a couple of questions :D Always questions.

The leaves that have yellowed from a nutrient lockout. Do they turn green again or stay yellow?

It is day 67 since the seeds cracked so it might be age related too. The quarter pounder is an 80 to 85 day strain seed to harvest (claimed) That is a nice fat juicy bud on that quarter pounder.

The trans siberians are 65 to 75 days and I cry bullshit on this one. They have 3 to 4 more weeks at least and are on day 67 as well.

I have my ph right now but they are pretty much the same color as before.

Once I get through the next batch of autos I am going to try the photo period seeds I have. I have to see what that looks like. I will stick to 2 or 3 plants. I think I crowded the tent up a bit too much. NEWB. If they had a bit more space I could tie down branches and make them fatter in the middle.

A couple of those autos stretched way too much. Is that because I should get the light closer to them when they are past the small stage? I kept it about 3 to 4 feet above them.

in a space of 3 x 3 how many photos would you grow?

I think 2 could probably fill it up. But I have 3 short 7 gallon fabric pots or I am figuring out a watering system that bottom feeds via gravity. (My new project). Either way 3 is a lucky number so I am doing it.

I will have one quarter pounder still going while they veg :D

And I just found out today the autos are on 20-4.

The photos will save me 30 bucks a month in hydro.

They dont stay yellow, they eventually turn brown and fall off. Put the lights 12 to 18 inches away for shorter plants, 18 for led.

I'm a new too but I'll throw my thoughts out there. Take em for what they're worth. They are probably starting their fade, what do the tric's look like? Autos aren't the most stable genetics so they mat be off on the time table. As far as how many plants in your tent, I have a 4x4 and I would say 3 vegged out could fill it, I would do 4 myself. I overcrowded my space completely too but I had quite a few plants in there lol. If I just had my 4 main photos in there they would have been BIG!
