The Great Auto Showdown

[Spidermite]

Well at least I wasnt the only one to Foxtail.

[Tika]

But you did it well....beautifulnimage.

[starramus]

Foxtailing to the extreme. This isn't my sick puppy. Plant looks really stressed.

[oldjarhead100]

I'm sorry for your plant but holy shit thats a cool picture ,hope you dont mind but I saved it and going to print it out and stick it on my bloom room door

[Mr.furley]

Looks easy to roll into joints.

[RagWeedDWC]

@MrFurley like the way you think! That is the best picture I have seen after doing tons of research on foxtailing.

[OzBud]

[oldjarhead100]

so thats what causes it huh

[LurkingInTheGrass]

Is that a pokemon, or a Yowie?

[OzBud]

close, its Kurama from the manga/anime Naruto

[oldjarhead100]

This is my Mutant Louie shes starting to bulk up I have 4 others that are almost ready I'll post a few pics during the week

[Mr.furley]

Looking good OJH.

[Retodd]

Hands down, the worst grow I’ve done in 20+ years! I just can’t wait for it to be over, so I can start the new ones. Thatdamned fire....
They do smell really good. Pistils are mainly all still white and there’s new bud growth. I’m hoping by Fools Day that I can cut them up and dry what little I’ll have. The rest of y’alls look great. I seen I got some more weights sent to me.
Good luck all
🙏🏼✌🏻

[Mr.furley]

Despite what happened it looks good and wouldn't surprise me if it's not the best smoke ever.

[Retodd]

Mr.furley It’s only cause I presmoked it early on👍🏿

[Spidermite]

oldjarhead100 here are the pics of the untouched autos. Day 31 on the backs day 16 on the smaller ones.

[starramus]

You might stick a box fan in front of the tent for a spell to get that dirt dried out more quickly. The girls are getting thirsty!

[Spidermite]

Yes they are being watered tonight. So all should be well.

I went to 3 gallon pots just to try but after this going back to 7s. I know the Carmelicious in the far right doesnt like the small pot.

[Colombo]

https://www.planetnatural.com/product/microbe-lift-bmc/ This should help with the gnats, all organic. can use any time. Just a thought. Complements on your Grow, they should finish real nice! Good Growing !!

[Spidermite]

Ok thing one is down and trimmed. Ill give dry weights as soon as possible. 1080grams wet and trimmed. So under 10 ounces dried. I had to cut the big buds and may need to cut then even smaller.

[oldjarhead100]

Yup Spidermite you did real good

[Retodd]

Wanna trade?

[RagWeedDWC]

Wow!!!!

[LurkingInTheGrass]

...HAPPY SATURDAY TO ALL!!

I cheated this week - no phone pics - dug out the camera and tripod

my Things:

left: Thing 1
right: Thing 2


Royal Gorilla Automatic (Royal Queen Seeds)
50% Indica / 30% Sativa / 20% Ruderalis
56-70 days after germination


Thing 1
98 days from seed
55 days from pistils







Thing 2
92 days from seed
55 days from pistils





Res change was delayed until Wednesday
30% GH "Late Bloom (week 10)"

pH: 6.0
TDS: 759 ppm
EC: 1518 microsiemens

probably start weaning her on next res change (take it down to 15%).


they have both been filling in/up nicely. Thing 1 may even give a couple of short colas, with all the golf balls

trichome heads seem like they are swelling, still a game of hide and seek to find milky trichomes on buds, but, they are starting to turn




Saving reading everybody else's updates for tomorrow (so tired, can barely focus on this post)


good night and green thoughts

[starramus]

"In my defence
I was left alone and unsupervised"
So was my son, and he ate his disposable diaper!

Both lookin like up and comers!

[oldjarhead100]

Looking good wow they are starting to fill out and get fat

[LurkingInTheGrass]

starramus
LOL - I remember those days

recently, I was out with my youngest (19) getting him some Uni clothes, when he found a T-shirt that he just had to have

then it ended up in my sig


yes - both Things are filling in nicely. even the missus can't miss the growth.
due to the current config of grow/smoking room - she can't not see them. The other day she asked if I was going to run more of the Autos, because they look so good and fast compared to the others (she waves at the 2 monster photo plants, I have been vegging under the same 20/4 light.

Customer Service skills kicked in, I didn't laugh or smile as I once again, explained the difference between Autos and Photos

[oldjarhead100]

some pics of the other girls getting ready for their big day ,just waiting to fatten up some

[Retodd]

Seen a ladybug on the one pic OJH. Are these the ones for the competition?

[oldjarhead100]

no the only one for comp is the mutant louie these are just close to being ready , yup I love lady bugs they dont kill all the aphids but close to it ,ever since I started using dirt I have aphids , when in veg I spray them but when they go into bloom I use lady bugs ,I use 500 when I move them to bloom then if I see any bugs dump some more

[Rwise]

Looks like I missed Saturday,,,, so here it is a day late and a dollar short,,,
Headbanger, White Widow and White Moscow are nearing 120 days (65 days from seed to harvest right), Himalaya Blue Diesel and Snowryder look on schedule (+2 weeks) for their harvest. I may change my mind after harvest and sampling, but I would do the HBD again!
I think (maybe hope) I am seeing a bit of amber on the WW, I need the space and ready or not she gets it the 22! The other 2 get it in the next 2 weeks,,, The HBD would fall over had it not been for the Christmas lights, she is getting banana juice and black strap,,,

So many nice plants in this thread! I can hardly wait to join those of you who have harvested!

Also I have seeded 4 buds, how long before ripe seed?
It will be 5 weeks the 20th,,, and ya I know a few pollen got away and I will have a scattered seed here and there outside of the intended,,, I will be planting them also!

[Rwise]

The bracts on the HBD are splitting open and I can see a bit of the fat white seed!

[Colombo]

How did the Christmas lights work? Did they help you think ?

[Rwise]

Well they make 0 heat so they aren't hurting anything. When I first plugged them in the buds closest to them made longer hairs, I dont see as much dif now,,,
I think they are so low powered they will not do much if anything at all,,,

[Spidermite]

Everyone is looking great. I love picture days. Learn something new everytime.

[Canuck147]

Good day everyone - thing 3 made it to day 99.
Got 3 more seedlings up and out of the soil.

[Mr.furley]

That's freaking awesome!

[oldjarhead100]

the stalk is amazing and so are the buds

[RagWeedDWC]

"So big it has bark" Snorted my beer.

[oldjarhead100]

these are the plants not in bloom and at day 86 they are a bit poky still they are working on it

[Juicyj89]

Retodd Hey, final weight is resting at 127.5 grams or 4.5 oz. started my NL Auto. Gonna do one indoors and one out. As long as the weather permits. If not guess I’ll do two. I really just want to do one so I can focus on her and try to make her a beast. Idk. Well hope everyone has a good day. Later.

[Retodd]

Thanks bro..wrote it down. I take it the strain is sweet tooth? Nice haul. Can’t wait to hear how she smokes

[Juicyj89]

HEY yeah sorry forgot to mention that. Yes it’s sweet tooth. I’ll load a picture of some curing buds here in a bit. They’re right in the zone now. Coming up on 2 weeks this Saturday. Perfect and dense. Mango fruit smells. No real flavor profile yet or it’s it’s hard to tell. But most of the harshness is gone so I’m thinking by this weekend they’ll be pretty smooth all together. I’ll give a full break down then. How bout that? Everyone’s plants that are still growing look great btw. Good luck everyone.

[starramus]

Damn this is worth posting again. Congratulations Canuck147

[Retodd]

She’s gonna weigh in nicely

[RagWeedDWC]

That is a tree trunk with some awesome pot growing on it.
