COCO COIR All Auto's Journal

[PhantomSulker]

Well I have harvested one of my first grow bag seed plants that were planted on 12/16/18 and just took forever, in all my learning I wish I had just started with some auto's to get some product faster. So I tried some Jack Herer Autos I got from www.seedking.com. I have 2 of them I am tracking in another Journal, but I wanted to start a new Journal for the rest of the Auto's I have bought recently. I have one more Jack Herer Auto, 5 G13 Auto's from www.seedking.com and 10 Fast Bud's Mexican Airlines seeds and plan to run them all back to back untill all these seeds are grown. Then I will go back to doing some unique photos. So as long as I don't buy more I should have 14 more seeds to go after these 3. I had to flip my veg room I built into flower due to overcrowding in my flower tent.

I have growing now my last Jack Herer Auto, 1 G13 and 1 Mexican Airlines. The Jack Herer and G13 were sprouted 2 weeks ago and just got put in their 3 gallon pot in my 2x4x4 tent with a 300W Cobb light. The Mexican Airlines seed sprouted yesterday and was put in it's root riot and under CFL's for now. I mixed up 4 bricks of coco over the weekend and the two pots I used for the G13 and Jack were PHed to 6.0 in and out took about 6 gallons of PHed water to get the run off the same, then last 2 gallons for each I added calmag and 1/4 strength MaxiGrow and then planted the seedlings in them and put them in the tent. I will PH the last pot this week will be a few days before the Mexican Airlines gets put in the tent. I am keeping the light on 24/7 it only draws 101W.

So here we grow!

I also have a poinsettia plant that was dead that I am regrowing as well. Will eventually just put it outside once we get away from freezing temps.

I'll tag along for the ride.

Good write-up. We're all watching.

No photo updates today, and not much of any updates, the G13 and Jack Herer is in it's 3 gal pots and just sitting there like the other Auto's I grew, I know they are growing their roots and will be dormit for a week or so and then take off. Last night I PH'd 4 gallons of water to 6.0 and flushed the coco till in and out was 6.0, I will add 1/4 nutes and calmagic tonight and plant her and get the 2x4x4 tent arranged under the little 300 watt light I have in there.

I am going to LST the G13 and Mexican Airlines, and I am going to try to Quadline the Jack Herer I am tracking 2 other Jack Herer Autos in another journal and one I did LST to one I am not doing anything to other than some tucking of big leaves, so I will have a base line to compare weights of 3 techniques to after harvesting the 3 plants. The only thing I did inconstant was on the Jack Herer Auto i am not training she is growing in leftover dirt and everything else is in Coco.

Otherwise I am happy with the results.

Ok, snapped a quick photo at lunch. Not much of a update the One on the right is the Jack Herer Auto and in the shot glass is the Mexican Airlines, she will get put in her pot tonight I gave her pot a 1/4 nute and some CalMagic at lunch and will let that drain over the sink and get her planted when I get home. The plant on left with blue tag is the G13. I have been leaving the tent open at the top and temp is staying around 71 and humidity 65%. Can't wait for them to take off.

The Jack Herer 3 is starting to grow now, just last night she started to grow her next node. She is going to be fun to work with and compare the 3 yields of these Auto's The G13 looks like she is about to start growing too. The Mexican Airlines Fast Buds, is a week behind the other two. I am about to harvest 3 plants from the flower tent and will get a few more sprouting about the same time. I am still on the fence about the 300 watt light I bought it is bright enough, but the throw size of the light is not that big. I may get a 2nd one like this one it only draws 100W on. But things are well and when I get the other plants harvested I may be able to move the other 3 in the veg room under my 1500W Led to the flower tent and reclaim my veg room. I am temporally using my old 2x4x4 tent for the autos while I have 3 photos flowering in the room I built for veg.

The Jack 3 has the yellow tag, the G13 has the blue one and the Mexican Airline has the white tag.

Had the day off yesterday and the two Mexican Airlines I put on paper towel the night before had a nice little tap rots and they got put in root riots and should be sticking their heads out soon. I am going to grow these in cups for a while so I can put the cup on the pots under the little light in my 2x4x4 tent. I have them on warming mat under a CFL for now.

The other 3 must have had some PH issue or something initially the cotyledon leaves are covered with rust spots but all the new growth looks fine except the G13 has some strange shaped leaves but nothing I am really concerned with.

[PhantomSulker]

Girls are all doing good the G13 has a bit of strange growth on her but all looks ok.

[PhantomSulker]

Well I was sick for a few days in bed, but managed to get some work done on the girls.

G13 and Mexican Airlines had a few branches removed and a light bending. Jack 3 was toped at 4th node leaving 2 and 3 to Quadline. I can't wait to see the diffrence in growing 3 strains with 3 diffrent training styles this should teach me a lot. The Jack 2 in my other journal is huge compared to Jack 1 that was LST'd.

[PhantomSulker]

Only worked on 2 plants last night, had a really busy day at work and was tired but I did a little LST on the G13 and worked on the Bonsai project.
