Blue Himalayan Auto Dwarf Female 56 days

I would definitely top again! Last time it was at four nodes...seemed to work out perfectly cause it got the 8 growing points to all want to take off...and then I could tie them down to get a wide structure.

this picture made me laugh I didn't notice the shell.

I feel nervous with these auto's wait till 4 nodes to top?

 

[Karlee]

Todays picture is almost 4 nodes plants are in the 3rd week but I can't get in tight nodes makes it hard. No problems with the autos they do like the higher temps for sure , I 'll be topping tomorrow and the training begins.
Keeping PH at 6.00. I have the exhaust fan coming on every 3 hours for one hour helping keep temps up for them in my winter wonderland basement.

Looks great...good job

 

[rockman]

Yes Karlee...looking good! And it is tight spacing, but worth the effort to get right in there and start the training by topping. Hope your eyesight is good! 😊

I've noticed that with my autos, they like the heat. I'm usually around 75 and up to 85. Humidity is up there too 50 - 65. Air circulation comes on for 15 minutes off for 30. They like it tropical.

great stuff. if it happens to finish around 56 days then you've only got about 5, maybe 6 weeks to go.

Hey Karlee,i have totally missed this thread and i was wondering where you were the last couple days!!Good to see you are around and ofc into new adventures!!Autos and the Green-Method wow!!You are one dare devil!! First of they look wonderful!!I noticed you are also using the circle round watering like Green did,will you keep in mind to show us roots at the end?

This is going to be a beautiful ride for you and us all Happy topping and may they recover swift and sound !!

 

[Karlee]

Ratio was 2 bricks for 8 qt perlite ..I mixed it up in a wheelbarrow using a hoe much better mixing for the larger batch.

Just topped the Autos this morning and this is no lie having so many babies all at once is a workout LOL

 

[Karlee]

Thanks Green you're an inspiration

 

[Karlee]

Hi Nartak

The reason behind the watering is most plants don't like water right at the stalk so with any plant look at it and think, when it rains where will the water hit dripping off the leaves, and your training the roots to spread out in your pot.

And our Doctor Green is a master gardener

You bet it's a workout! However.....a whole bunch of fun!!!! Delighted for you!!!

 

[Karlee]

Twenty-Three days

Out of the 4 plants 2 are tight little plants and haven't grown like the other 2 but I'm waiting for a growth spurt. These autos are so tiny to work with I wait for them to get a little longer it seems every day.

Far right is the Big Gun the others are the Himalayan. I lost power over a big storm for a couple hours but they weathered that storm LOL​​​​​​​

 

[Tika]

Wonderful Karlee. God I love the veg stage. They look simply beautiful to me!!!!
keep on keepin on!
