The Great Auto Showdown

I see your local temp with be in the high 80s today. How hot does it get in your greenhouse even with all of those fans?
 
The string of 100+ days has for now ended, and today a "mild" 93 degrees is forecast. So here are my 17 plants happily vegging in full sun. I have had them in partial sun in a utility car port attached to my barn. Nobody looks heat stressed other than a male who is isolated out in the field. I have 18 plants, but one turned out to be a male Purple Maze Kush which I will soon chop, and, tag, and bag. I plan on retaining the pollen for some future breeding program. His "wife" can be seen towering in the background. It is said that this strain if planted in good ole terra firma will reach 12 feet in height. Looks to be a bumper harvest this fall. I really do not know what I will do with all of this flower other than drive around giving it away to the homeless. Maybe I can brighten their day in some small way. I have five White Russian clones. Two on the left are from a vegging WR. The two on the right are monster cropped. Another older clone is towards the back of the ATV trailer. I use the trailer to keep them up out of the bugs since I still have been too lazy to move out my greenhouse. With 100 degree temps you can guess my motive for inactivity. The Siamese twin is a Girl Scout Cookie. I did not top her. Her twinhood is naturally occurring. Finally there is balls aplenty soon to be made less dangerous.

That is a very unique and pretty pattern on that cicada. This year has been kind of quiet as far as they go. The ones I've have seen this year are all flat green and black. That one is pretty cool looking.
 
I use a 315w CMH for my veg and Mother tent and a 630w CMH for my flower tent. running PAR PRO 3100 K for my 315's and a PAR PRO 4200 K and a 3100 K in my 630W
 
Wow I hope you have help trimming when that day comes. Very nice sets of clones they all are just loving the outdoors they seem to grow so much quicker. My fabric bags are drying out nearly every other day, It's windy which helps keep the bugs down but dries them out faster. We've been lucky here no 100 degree days just like you "mild" 90s. I have started more clones today off of the cookie strain and my favorite this summer that is doing great are the mama mias took a few more useless branches off her. If these ones go well I made a trade with a neighbor for 2 jaeger he got a mother from a fella in Selma. I'm really wanting to try that strain. Us too we mosey out at 6am till about 11am then it's indoors till after sunset out again and may water something I've missed. You have a beautiful grow going starramus take it easy.
 
Add some Butterflies and you can charge admission LOL (take care of any bugs too) It is so nice to see all that growth. Nothing but GREEEEEEEEEEEEEN !
 
Well all of the auto plants have been harvested. One is still drying. I can not complain about the yields at all. Still curing and one plant was pretty larfy but it made a bunch of it. No idea why it came out that way. But it is nice and frosty.

The first photo plant will be harvested tomorrow. Next batch of plants are already on their third nodes but nice to have the tent closed for awhile. The babies just went to the led tent prior to going to MH.
 
HappyDaze I believe they were all free seeds ,I did 2 each and grew the best one
@Budgal No it didn't make it It looked like it was getting bud rot with no buds so I tossed it ,I have a 55 gallon Barrel that I filled 1/4 full of cow poop ,yesterday I refilled it and added some sea bird Guano and some cal/mag to give them a shot of p/k right at the beginning of bloom
starramus well it says its hot but with the breeze it feels ok , none of the girls show heat stress (wind burn from the fans), I have lollypoped everything and have fans blowing under /over/and into the girls,so if it says 90 it feels like 75-80
 
I usually do not keep them in there long. Autos I move to the MH setup as soon as they are acclimated to the stronger lights. I start with just a viperspectrum 450 and move them as soon as they enjoy the light at 24 inches.

Photos I'll leave under the leds until they no longer fit in the 2x4 tent. They seem to grow just as fast under the lower watt lights as they would under the 1000 watt mh, at least that first month.. So I guess with photos they can stay under the 1 viperspectrum for almost a month. Saves me a pretty penny on the electricity usage.
 
While cruising on the Harley you dont want to catch one of these right between the eyes running 75 mph (or so) down the highway,,,, have Bass, great bait!
