Help me decide which plant(s) to sacrifice

7munkee · Feb 24, 2023

I have a Bruce Banner 2.0 photo in the back box that is 64 days from seed. The front box has 2 Knows Candy autos that are 24 days from seed. I dont want the BB to go 60 more days of veg before I fip, but I dont want the autos running on 12/12.

I only have a 3x3 tent. I'm not even sure I could fit 4 months' worth of veg in a 3x3 let alone flower 2 autos at the same time.

These Earthboxes grow the biggest healthiest plants I gave ever personally seen in a tent. Water only from seed to chop.

Personally I would get rid of the autos and just grow that BB out as its already decent size and you can flower it whenever you decide.

What’s wrong with running autos at 12 hours? They will still flower as genetically programmed.

Hmm... Would I get rid of a big photo plant or a tiny auto? Let me think about this for a min...

Flip now and leave them all. That way you can smoke the auto while you trim the photo

Lol Im not chucking any in the trash, I mean which one do I sacrifice the potential on.

Is it possible to just keep lopping the tips off the photo until the 2 autos are done (50-60 days)

or should I flip now and take a hit on the autos growth?

They are all fems BTW.

If they turn out like any other autos I have grown they will produce about 12-14 ounces between the two.

Your auto's are going to flip on their own soon enough just put everything on 12/12 at that point and harvest it all.....I've never been able to run auto's on 18 hrs for the same reason....They still turned out pretty plants.

There's also a thing call Chiropractics, YT Kyle Kushman Chiropractics...after that treatmen you can bend them down to their knees. and they still stay healthy. You could do that to your photos to keep them short.

I would just flip to 12/12 now or in a week and just run with it.

This is what I have decided to do. The photo should still fill half the screen+ before its done stretching. And the autos will start flowering in 10 days os so. From my expererince the autos will start to flower about day 35

With a little luck they will finish at roughly the same time.

Its gonna be tight regardless what I do.

I got here late, but that gets my vote.

So far in my growing life, my thinking is it's better to either have multiple tents or only grow the same type and age of plants. I've read that many growers will have a seedling tent, a vegetation tent and/or a flowering tent. That's a lot of hardware, but it also may be the best way to do it, especially if growing plants at distinct stages of growth.

Multiple chambers is the way to go for the that next level. But not everyone has the room for it. I have a buddy who is just ing getting to growing and I got him set up with a space box (duel 5 gallon bucket model), and he has a single plant going in there for fun.
