Time to show your grow.

[GreenState]

Never have'in grown one and only seeing pics posted here, my impression of autos is hit and miss.
But it looks like you've gotten a hit with this one!

 

[BigOlBug]

Just starting to flower. Yay!!!

[BigOlBug]

Agreed!!!

Those look great homegrown

 

[BigOlBug]

I wanna live near you, dude!

Nice training and congrats on doing it in Autopots. Maybe not a pound but way above average of my grows.

 

[bboyfromwayback]

Thank you! The AutoPot system kinda made me a lazy grower last run but it’s what I needed at the time

 

[Ckbrew]

There is a big difference between lazy and efficient. There are similar characteristics in each but I am to efficient to find the lazy.

Love a packed tent. Kids front right, teenager left, maw & paw watching over them from the rear.

So, my 1 gal GG4 container grow is 5 weeks since flipping now. My problem is I have to leave them unattended for 8 days ;( and need to figure out
how to somewhat water them while I'm gone(I keep my grows to myself). Temps in the house will be around 55 or so at "night" so that should help. Woodstove won't be going so that will help also(higher humidity). The only thing I can think to do is fill those large saucers that the containers sit in with water and hope for the best. Thinking they'll hold about a half gallon after saturating the plants before I walk out the door with my fingers crossed.
They've been drinking a quart each every 2 days, but the wood heat sucks the moisture right out of them.
Open to other, practical ideas
This grow was kind of an afterthought and used what I had on hand, old coffee cans and just enough old soil to fill them(lol). That said I'm pretty happy with the results so far. If only they survive for another 7 weeks. End of January and ought to be there. Should yield 1 1/2-2 oz each (per gallon of soil (g) (edit..maybe 3 oz each, 12 dominant tops per plant )

I know what going without water for a week will do, not sure about them constantly sucking up water and being saturated will do.

 

[GreenState]

Puglover1 I'm sure they aren't going to be happy <g>. I do line the bottom of my containers with filter fabric
so at least I won't have wayward , wandering roots I guess we'll gain some knowledge for the future regardless of the outcome.

How much time do you have before you go? In a hurry I would set up a gravity feed reservoir with an electrically actuated valve connected to a digital timer. Rig tubing from reservoir to valve to distribution manifold to pots. Let it run to see how long it takes to water the pots then set that as your valve open time. Best I can think of with out using a pinch hitter.

thanks BU2B , she will be smaller than my last girl as she is in a 3 gallon and not the usual 5 that I use.

Ckbrew Darkart1 Puglover1 Thanks all, think I'll just gamble on my "bath" idea and cross my fingers. Fortunately if I come home to dead plants, I do have 3 clones from cuttings taken off these two flowering clones. My original plan was not to even grow out these 2, but have a grow from the clones taken from them, getting serious after the holidays. We'll see how it all comes out in the wash. If I can get these to the finish line, I'm looking at it as a bonus

To harvest, or not to harvest, that is the question:

Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to wait

The slings and arrows of a racy high,

Or to take a risk of more amber against a sea cloudy trichs

And by waiting, couch lock.

It all depends on what you want. They do look tasty though, nice one.

If you have time to order online you can get a drip feed system that runs off a timer you connect to a reservoir pretty cheap for what you’d need on Amazon
