Ordered from seedsman, bought 10, paid with bitcoin. (well worth the initial hassel figuring out how)
I received 31 seeds ! In less than two weeks.

Starting with (1)Nirvana's Northern Lights and (1)Royal Queen Seeds Diesel Auto.

Ideally this will be starting 2 plants every 3-4 weeks. The first 2 will be outside. My room is tied up flowering photos. So for now, autos can go outside in the California sun :cool:. I get about 12-14 hours of direct sunlight. The autos should finish up about the same time as the photos. So autos can take over the room from there on out.

June 25:
Soaked seeds for few hours in shot glass with water then into jiffy pellets.
Pellets went straight into 1L pots with Vermifire. Shot glass inverted over the seed.

---Normally I may have concerns about Vermifire for such young plants but I think the autos will like it. But this being my first rodeo with autos it's an adventure! Feel free to throw out any auto info do'so and don'ts.
Thanks for checking out my grow.
 
Nice, all tuned in for the program :)

I haven't run any Autos yet but I've got a lot of interest. Cutting out one of the growth stages may become a necessity at some point for me.
 
I have heard good reports about vermifire, but I thought it was to hot for seedlings ,you never know for sure until you try it on them though. Good Luck CaliKid
 
Yes it can be a little hot for seedlings...but I've heard autos can handle more than photos right out of the gate. So I'll give it a try and see how it goes.
 
I ordered from royal queen seeds. I had some trouble germinating all seeds. First batch went ok, next batch total failure. Haven't tried the diesel auto though.
Good luck :)
The only thing you gotta know with autos, in my opinion, is to give them good sun from the start til the end. Makes a big difference. (12 days difference, 120cm difference... No kidding. Because of sun/germinating time)
 
Not much to report today for my next batch of seeds, I expect something picture worthy tomorrow. So I thought I would post some pictures of my outdoor project.

both topped but the one on the left was going to get major LST. But ended up just 4 branches lst'd and then let her go wild.

However the one on the right was going to be wild after the top. But today she whispered to me that she wants to train !

On her way to a wagon wheel !
Time for something cold...
 
I have one room for my indoor and those youngins weren't ready to flower so out they went. So now I have something to play with for next few months at very little cost. So trying things out won't be such costly lessons. In the end I may have some extra smoke. :cool:
 
Might be my phone , but she sure looks mighty yellow ,hope its not the Vermifire, I hope its my phone, I know for a fact that the soil I'm using will burn auto seedlings up, KindSoil, but you are warned about it but I still tried it ,just to see for myself it was a Nirvana NL auto seed , I can't see pictures on my phone very well . Good Luck.
 
Meh...we'll see. I just needed something to tinker with until the indoor photos are done. Then the autos will take over my room. I knew the Vermifire might be too hot but I just had to see for myself also.
 
Good deal , that's exactly the way mine looked that burned up.Like I said I can't see very well on my phone , I hope she grows up to be beautiful. Best of luck.
 
Thanks D.A.A.S.69 .
It is a bit yellow. If she's strong enough to pull through great. But if not, I've learned. Luckily I got 20 free seeds with my last order. So I can screw up a few more times lol. Thanks again for the interest. Have a great day my friend.
 
D.A.A.S.69 We'll my friend it seems as though you were right. These little seeds are trying but try as they might...the deck was stacked against 'em.
Often I learn from others, but the rest of the time, I must fall on face to see what it feels like.

Survey says:
Vermifire is too hot for sprouts.
 
I thought the same way to CK , I thought if I could get one going from the start that she could take anything , she couldn't take that KindSoil ,burnt her butt right up. I was warned too , hardheaded me I had to find out for my self. That's how we learn . Something else every time I top dressed I got tip burns ,not bad but enough to let me know it was still doing it's job. From then on all she got was molasses and worm compost teas which she really liked. That's good soil Vermifire .glad you got some more seeds. Good luck.
