Outdoor GG auto

[bboyfromwayback]

Day 32 and she’s twice the size of the autos I have going inside that are 10 days older. I think I’ll only be growing photos inside from now on. Autos grow into little Christmas trees inside, outside they’re actually a respectable plant.

I don't know shit about autos but I have seen alot of them and this one looks better than most of them. 🌲👍

Thanks! I won’t show you the autos in my tent then lol some people grow massive autos inside but all of mine have been small. 38g dry is the most I’ve had one plant produce a far

So are some of my first autos bboyfromwayback heck i was thinking maybe they were suppose to be teenie tiny but then BOOM the light went on and not sure how but i began to grow bigger ones LOL

Do you ever put your outdoor plants under lights? It’s been all clouds the last couple of days so I was wondering if it would be ok to take it in until it gets sunny again but wasn’t sure if it would mess with it

 

[MeEasy]

My understanding is that your girls will still get better light outside on a cloudy day than under the best artificial light inside. Clouds defuse the light bouncing it around from all directions.

Sweet outdoor digs! I'm all about having that other outdoor living space. Your plant does look pretty respectable! Better than anything I've got left outdoors, unless I can interest someone in a partially smoked tomato-on-the-vine, lol.

I’m hoping it makes it outside till harvest. Had spare planters after our peppers were done so I popped a auto seed. Grown lots of veggies outside but I’ve only grown bud inside. Should be done mid October so I think she’ll be ok

 

[bboyfromwayback]

I’m sure! Even though it’s been mostly cloudy the last week she’s doubled in size.

One more thing to think about is pests, sometimes it's too late by the time you see the little bastards

 

[bboyfromwayback]

Yep! Been keeping DE on it when it’s not raining.

bboyfromwayback i can't bring my outdoor to indoor. I'm not set up for large plants...well any larger than 6ft i have to bend them to fit in the green house outdoors. But i've done so with the autos moved them back indoors. I only use 3gal fabric pots for autos smaller footprint in my tent if i want to grow 4 works perfect. I pleased with my autos, sure i'd like them to be fat like water bottle but right now it's all about filling the pantry

Yea I’m not setup for a big photo bush indoors either, be sweet if I was though lol I put this auto in the smallest planter we had on the patio, I think it’s a 5 gallon but I didn’t fill it completely full. She should finish mid October and we usually don’t get cold weather until Thanksgiving but 2020 has been a crazy year so if needed I’ll take it inside to finish

 

[bboyfromwayback]

The DE makes it look paint splattered but I gotta keep them bugs of my buds! It’s Gona get into the upper 40’s the next few nights then 70-80’s daytime.

Day 37. I told the wife since we can buy peppers and tomatoes at the grocery I want to grow more autos on the patio next year. Her reply, get more planters 😂

I don't know where you are (in Canada?) but my gawd wherever you are, I hope you had a better summer than we did. The only thing that really took off outdoors this year was the tomatoes and the WPM, lol

 

[bboyfromwayback]

I’m in the southeastern US. It was a pretty crappy year. Our tomatoes didn’t start producing until July. Usually by then the wife has already made a couple batches of salsa and marinara, this year I think she only made 3 batches of marinara but no salsa 😕 peppers didnt produce well either, only filled 4 mason jars this year

 

[AccidentalGardener]

my tomatoes are the only thing that survived outside besides the wildflowers and some clumps of lavender. WPM got so much I abandoned the deck for a bit. That 13 days of smoke blocking the sun finished things up. Sun came out yesterday and we could finally breathe. Now expecting thunderstorms, buckets of rain, wind. Whatever is gonna happen outside better happen in the next 48 hours because summer is going out with a bang.
