I am ashamed and amazed at the same time

[kevboe11]

Hey, aside from the fact these are 5 weeks old, yes I completely fucked up at one week. But since I still had some going, instead of chucking them, I let em go. Cookies and cream Auto, sorry. Anyway now they are 5 weeks into their cycle, haven't grown a single millimeter since week 1, now they are flowering, yes flowering at 1-2 nodes. That's so so sad. Id figure I'd share if anybody has the same sense of wonder as I do. 1 node buds, I think the harvest will be a bit light. Enjoy your laugh!

shit you’d be able to put a whole plant in one joint

Dude I'll probably get all 6 in one mediocre spliff, lmao!

 

[Sunin]

well
thanks for sharing and honesty. It is interesting to see. Update later please

 

[Galgrows]

Do you know how this happened? Sorry for your loss

 

[kevboe11]

I started those while I had these going. That's how I usually do it. I harvest monthly. But those little ones, got a heat wave over 100 degrees for 3 days and I switched lighting which I think was too strong and I missed an early watering. I just wasn't paying enough attention to them. They got stunted and stopped growing at less than a week old. They never recovered but never died. And since I still had those 4+footers going, I figured what the hell and let them go and just watered them. And they started flowering at 5 weeks now, lol. It's kinda sad but at least now I know, autos will flowering regardless of any factors. 1 node flowering, I never thought I would see that.

 

[Galgrows]

Well don't kick yourself too much. I screwed up 9 autos this summer by not waiting for overnight temps to get to a steady 60f set them out in the 40's day temps in the low 70s big mistake. Hey man we live and learn.

 

[Bigalmoby]

Yeah it’s happens I lost a auto she was about two weeks out to bud rot. temps here been crazy this summer

I hate autos man, they are such shit. So limited IMO

 

[kevboe11]

For me, I like autos, I have very little space. Even those 4 footers are right out in the open it's geeks me out. I have a hidden grow room that I need to keep them short, unlimited ground space but only 3 foot max, more like 2.5 foot in height, I have one long room on each side of my bedroom. So I would keep germ to 1 month on one side, 1 month to finish on the other side and then I'm harvesting every 4-6 weeks consistently. I took a tent out and extended it for those 4-5 footers but then it's in the middle of my room. So going back to hidden rooms, so autos are perfect for me. And once you get em done, they are worth it. Biggest thing, plant them straight into your harvest pot. It's imperitive you don't stress them. If you don't you will be amazed how big they get, and the whole plant is just bud, there is no waste. But you get em like 3 foot bushes, you'll get close to a QP each. Most people only get a O, if that. That's a waste of time, I ave 3 ounces each, I've had QP+ already, not bad for 9 weeks.

Those big ones were genetic freaks. They became in an auto pack, but after a month or so, I realized they weren't autos. I got screwed kinda by seed bank, so their lighting schedule was less than ideal for the first 8 weeks, I had 20 autos next to them. So I'm just letting them finish. They turned out surprisingly nice though for having a messed up photo period. They pre flowered at 5 weeks then stunted, then would not finish or bud anymore until I switched to 12-12, which was odd. Thought they were herms. That's them at 3 .5 months now and they will be done in a week or 2. Should be decent yield for what it was.

There is no argument that you would ever convince me to grow them. I can turn a photo into a pound, abuse the crap out of it, neglect it and it will recover. Typically newer growers have a affinity for them is what ive noticed. As a novelty with extra space I guess, but I've never had an auto I thought was special potency or yield wise. They are a watered down photo period IMO. But in the end if you want to grow them I hope it is enjoyable for you. Each person finds their own niche. Happy growing

Could be the strongest spliff of ur life lololol

 

[kevboe11]

A follow up for you guys, enjoy! They never recovered but finished flowering, at 3 inches tall, lmao! It's a shame, they were sugary.

Grow a bowl! ... awesome.

 

[BearWater]

Better than the bud you would have had if you had tossed them! Hell yeah man! Glad you are getting a little off those! I really wanted to try my hand at autos but have since reconsidered (I torment my photoperiods) and I dont think the autos would appreciate that much lol!!

I never seen a single serving plant before.

 

[Sunin]

every gram counts simple truth at growers backyard
try lowriders photo to 80cm - better than auto and auto with eastern European/ Crimea Ruderalis
Much more enjoyable

You learn something new every grow and live to grow another day, my friend.
