My first auto grow Columbian Gold

[JimfromA2]

This is my first time growing Autos. I was going to grow these outdoors to save money on the lights, but since it is only two months I should not have an issue with pests indoors if I follow my access rules. This is Columbian Gold from Blaze Brothers. I will be cleaning out my tent and moving them in there today.

I smoked my share of Colombian Gold back in the early thru mid '70s (still got a picture of it somewhere) you want to talk about good it blew away any of this modern hybrid stuff, it was the best! Only thing better was the Red Colombian which came around Boston in 73

Following, Let us know how you like it, I might give it a run

Edit: I just checked them out and the Colombian gold is sold out but they've got some other good looking strains, thanks for the link

Know that ACE Seeds as a auto - don't see many heirloom/landrance strains as auto's BUT I'm sure there will be more. Just looked at Blaze Bro's site can't believe the cost per seed - very good !!

Updated picture. I am probably going to transplant next week.

I very gently transplanted them last night. I wish I had known about transplanting auto's before I had even started them. We learn from our mistakes. They looked fine this morning.

No issues this morning

Plenty of people transplant their autos. I have two in solo cups now.

That's largely a myth, better to start plants in smaller containers

I transplant autos once or twice w/out any issues. They look great, keep it up!

Would these be considered seedlings or veg as far as the stage. I want to make sure the light is the right height and intensity.

I do it all the time, they'll be ok just takes a few days. Those were healthy and should just bounce back . Also i like to pre water my final containers prior to transplant.

yes i keep my light about 25" for first week just to be safe, mines dialed back to 75% also. Maybe more depending on the strength of your light. I have a Viparspectra P2500

 

[JimfromA2]

I moved the lights to 20" and turned up the light to 75%. They perked up and grew overnight.

The best I had was 1972-1983 in Thailand

I dont understand why the second one is clawing. I know it is not getting too much nutrients because I have not given much.

 

[JimfromA2]

And we are into flower

 

[JimfromA2]

It is amazing the difference between these two plants. The one on the right is spindly and the one on the left is compact. I got good news this morning. Only the one on the right is in bloom. The left is still in veg. YAY!

 

[JimfromA2]

Overnight the one on the left also went into bloom. I have never seen a plant grow branches 2" overnight.
