Is this too much training?

I doubt I get the time lapse on this one. I plan on sticking around and starting a diary in the correct place on my next run.

150 days is a long time but if they are monsters it's probably worth the wait.

My understanding of autos is even if it flowers early it's still going to take the full time until harvest. My first run backs that up. Both my plants where showing pistils around day 20 but I didn't harvest until day 81.

Haha I knew I should have clarified. I don't grow monster sized plants. Mine are patio poodles

I like to take tops for cloning about a week after I flip them, whats called monster cropping. While they are trying to root they keep moving into flower and then when they root, they reveg. Then as the foxtails of the buds grow out, they become a crap load of branches. They take forever to root and then reveg, usually 3-6 weeks and then a good month after to reveg, so it's not any kind of shortcut or hack, they're just cool. But as I recently found out, you can run into hormonal problems with some strains bouncing them back and forth. So then you've got some additional recovery time on top of that.

Nice. I'll have to look into it. Im probably picking up some photo seeds for my third run. That way I have more time to manipulate them.

BrucieBuds · Nov 4, 2025

Guessing we are talking seed to harvest and autoflowers? From what I know they should be pretty close to advertised times from a reputable supplier. But those times are an estimate because autos are funny. Estimated 8-10 and taking 16 is extreme tho.

I prefer to get my seeds online from a major seed bank or breeder.

Start of day 6 for her. For those that dont know or believe VPD and DLI are important. I learned the hard way. I didnt bother with either my last grow. Temp and RH are my biggest struggles. Im working with my apartments hvac in a bedroom with one vent and no window. RH% is easier to control but my humidifier is borderline too small and has problems keeping up sometimes. This vpd isnt the best for either plant here but it splits it down the mid pretty good. Just work with what you got and do your best to get things as close to optimal as possible.

Here is an online DLI calculator I use. https://www.cannabizcredit.com/blog/cannabis-dli-calculator

Hard to make it out but theres new growth in there.

GasPlease · Nov 4, 2025

I think Im a little behind GURU cannucks video but its still early. My RH% was set lower around 50-55 for the other plants. Once the cannuck challenge was issued I bumped it up.

Are there admin or moderators for this site? Someone like him should have their ability to post taken away. He clearly isn't providing anything useful to the community.

About halfway through day 6. That little stub is now leaves. Is this thing developing at an unusual pace for soil? I don't have the experience to know.

If you click on a user's avatar it will open some limited stats about them and the opportunity to "follow" or "ignore" them. If you click on ignore, my understanding is you will no longer see comments from them and they won't see yours. I would maybe ask the mods if it's a true two way block though.

Worst you get is it says hidden replies

Just thought I'd show my "rapid" growth on some outdoor regular photos that I first spotted popped on 10/19, with a progress shot today. Cut me some slack though, it's November and them roots are a little cool. The others crowded in pots are just viability testing.
