The Great Auto Showdown

[Rwise]

BTW, if you spot the red tie wraps on limbs, those limbs are seeded,,,,

 

[BurningTeddy]

Yep, total dry. Thing2 was around the same, little less I think. Both have been the smallest yields off of autos I've had BUT have also been the best quality bud I've grown.

Didn't take biggest bud shots cuz I was worried about mold and pulled it apart before it was fully dry.

24H I think you will be OK if you wait until May 15.

 

[starramus]

oldjarhead100 That's from Jorge Cervantes right? What has been your success rate with that method? You still get some males right what percentage? I would think that gender would be determined only genetically, and not environmentally. Edjumicate me!

 

[starramus]

Juicyj89 Rapid rooters are the only way to go. Have been using them my last germinations. At least if nothing pops you can find the seed to see what happened. I do soak the rapid rooters though, but not the seeds.

Ok thing 00. Not entered. Will be harvested tomorrow. Besides foxtailing she made some serious bud.

 

[Spidermite]

More things 00 gonna be harvested this week.

 

[starramus]

Foxtailed bud is better than no bud.

Hey Rwise, did the Christmas lights help with the flower stage?

...HAPPY SATURDAY TO ALL!!






my Things:

left: Thing 1
right: Thing 2


Royal Gorilla Automatic (Royal Queen Seeds)
50% Indica / 30% Sativa / 20% Ruderalis
56-70 days after germination


Thing 1
105 days from seed
62 days from pistils

I went through her last night - took a lot of upper fans, exposed a lot of interior and lower canopy.
she greeted me this morning by holding her leaves up to the light (even some of the upper sugars were lifting)

Thing 2
99 days from seed
62 days from pistils

haven't taken any of her fans (kind of waiting to see how Thing 1 reacts, the old 'canary in a coal mine' )

Depending where you start measuring - this one (tallest) is 6-8 inches, should dry to a nice 3.5-4 inches she is girthy - I can't touch my fingers around her, from 2-3 inches down

trichomes still seem to be swelling (getting thicker)
still mostly clear
haven't found any solid milk yet, but finding trichomes starting to turn, is getting easier

STICKY
and thanks to a previous post about sticky faces - I have had Lady Gaga, stuck in my head, singing 'my my my my sticky face' (to the tune of poker face) - it has been stuck in my head for way to long - and hopefully I can share it away

giving off great smells - I mostly get pine (and pot) from a distance.
right up, in Their grills, there is the chem/fuel and still the lingering rubber bands

eased up on Nutes: 750-800 ppm
will continue with my 'treated water' (RO + Armor Si + CALiMAGic) at approximately 400 ppm

introduce RO when I start seeing plastic (full milk) trichomes or they start fading


soooo, at least another 2 weeks

[Retodd]

Just checking in fellas. Both of mine together only came to around 1-1/4-1-1/2. Fuckin fire! 😂

 

[Retodd]

Nice, but never seen anyone bury the trunk. Looking forward to your weigh in too

 

[Retodd]

They smoke the same. Why wouldn’t she be entered? Is she blue tooth too?

 

[oldjarhead100]

I gave a friend 10 seeds and he did nothing to them I did 10 seeds and did the N,heat,humidity and He got 2 out of 10 I got 8 out of 10 ,its not perfect but it beats starting 50 seeds to get 8 female lol starramus I have started to slice my root riots (same thing ) in half and open them like a sandwich its easier to do seeds with tails .

 

[oldjarhead100]

out of curiosity why do you bury the trunk I was turning the compost pile last fall and I turns over about ten stumps cause they just dont compost I burn them now and put ash in compost

 

[oldjarhead100]

nice looking plants how did the pollinating go was it easy or a PITA

 

[oldjarhead100]

looks good to me why not entered
