No White Pistols on Autos (Day 38)
- Thread starter Sledrock
- Start date
Unfortunately, I'm not able to take pics right now (Hoping Santa brings me a new camera.
In the meantime, here's some more info on my grow:
Grow medium: Coco with 30% Perlite
In 7 gallon Fabric Pots
Light Source: 450 Watt Vipar Spectra kept 18- 20 Inches above canopy
GH Trio Nutes at 1/2 strength, including Cal-Mag at every watering (Nutes amd plain water (alternating) about every 3 days)
Light is on 18/6 schedule
4 Inch exhaust with Carbon Scrubber filter
I PH every time, religiously (6.0 or close to it.)
Temps run 69F to 75F
Humidity - 39RH - 55RH
6 Inch fan blowing on plants
BTW - I topped these plants at Week 3 and it didn't Slow them down a bit!

No I just think it's slow growing and will show preflower soon have you seen any lighter center in the bud sites kinda yellow?

Should be pistils by now - I have one growing (White Widow Auto) - or so I thought it was an auto. 50 days in and no pistils - my light was running same as yours 18/6 - the other auto showed pistils after 20 days.
So I switched the lights on the Widow to 12/12 - it's 3 weeks into that schedule and is showing many pistils.
Think - Photoperiod

SoOrbudgal - Thanks for the response! No, no Yellowing at Bud Sites. I just looked at plants - there seems to be white pistols starting to emerge; they are about 1/8 - 1/4" long. Maybe these plants are just "Procrastinators" as Nebula would say?

Yes good for you. And been hearing that a few folks got photo instead of auto seeds when ordered. Those seed suppliers are stoned i'm sure when they sort out seeds or dropped on the floor with the other hundreds. Now aren't I reassuring LOL makes you wonder?
SoOrbudgal - I wonder if the Miscellaneous Freebies they give out, with nary a description of the strain name are seeds they dropped on the floor and they don't know what strain they're sending, either - lol

I wouldn't worry just yet, I've grown autos that didn't start flowering until around 60 days. There's quite the variance that way, just depends on the strain. That being said, if it's a fast auto, you might have a photo by accident.
The white pistols were just a hopeful mirage, I'm afraid :-( I think I got some photo seeds by accident, so I switched it over to 12/12 this morning. Hope the stretch will fit in my tent. It's 6 feet tall and the tallest plant is already 22" high. Light needs to stay at least 18-20 inches from top of tallest plant, I Hope I don't have my first experience in Super-Cropping. Like the doctor who's just been reinstated, but not officially, "Don't Worry, We'll Figure it Out."
