Uncledoug's 2nd Grow, Northern Lights Autoflower.

End of week 5 update. The girls are growing well, I'm going to put them in the tent under LED as soon as the Blue Mystic is harvested, should be in the next week or so. Been watching for Pistils, but none yet.
On another plant, Bag seed, Had an accident about a week ago. I had the pot raised up to be even with the much bigger BM, not sure how it happened but the pot took a tumble and snapped the main trunk, so I hung it up to dry for 5 days and then it put in a 1 quart mason jar. I sampled a bowl and it is a nice high, a little bit uplifting then mild couch lock. I attribute this to early harvest. Only got 24g dry but that will last me a month or more and by then I'll have much more.:D

End of Week 9
Well I've gotten a bit behind on my updates, the girls are in the stretch and looking good to me. Had two days they went without watering, 4th of July about 11:00pm I was upstairs and headed to the bathroom when I got very light headed and passed out cold, unfortunately I was just passing the flight of stairs, came to in the living room with my wife flipping out, so off to the hospital. Spent a couple days getting cat scans, xrays and a bunch of other tests. Turns out I had gotten dehydrated, when I stood up my BP dropped and hear I am at home, nothing broken, black eye, goose egg on my forehead, scrapes and bruises. I feel very lucky, could have turned out much worse. Happy to be home and back on here reading everyone's posts.
So anyway the girls didn't miss a beat with two days of neglect. My other grow, NL auto Manifold also is doing well, I'll update that post also.

Campesino Feeling pretty good this morning, both eyes are black now, may have to change my name to UncleRaccoon. lol. I have a question, on your last grow you were suppercropping, can I use this method during early flower, mid, late? I tried it yesterday and it was as easy as you said it is. Just don;t want to kill them.
 
Thank you Campesino . I was amazed at how fast they turned up and are now the same height as the others. Think supercropping will be my thing, so easy to do and don't have to tie them down. I'm not sure if it will happen but if the colas that are supercropped grow taller than the others can I do a second crop?
 
Beautiful plants Uncledoug, I had almost the same experience you did , I had to go to the hospital Friday, from damn near falling down every time I stood up, they took alot of blood, an hooked up EKGs, about 6hours later, the said I was Anemic, didn't have enough, Iron, in my body.
Going to my regular Dr. tomorrow at 1oclock, to see what he says, Iron pills are hell to take, they will mess your stomach up bad.
Ps, whenever they get to tall, just do it again, sometimes you have supercrop, the main buds, to keep them out of the lights, your not gonna hurt anything.
But your doing a great job with your plants, they look great, And stay hydrated for damn sure, it's hot weather this year.
 
Update to end of week 10. Not much to say other than the 2 girls are growing. The plant on the left has been bigger than the other since the beginning, even tho they germinated 10 hrs. apart and popp​ed 1 day apart.

Hi, I currently have 2 NLautos on the go, currently at the end of week 7, I topped mine once and I thought that they were slowing down a lot as I was hoping to harvest at around week 11 however seeing yours at week 10 with only just starting to flower really makes me feel a bit better. My buds are currently a little further along than yours and I’m hoping to harvest at week 11 so in about 4 weeks. How long do you think you have until harvest? Below are some pics of my autos NL

rizcuny, I've grown several NLights autos, mine were from Nirvana . Your look nice, by the way.
Mine got pretty large. And all of them showed some amber on the buds, not the leaves, by day 80, they all had amber showing on the leaves by day 70, I harvested them all by day 90, I got just a little under 7ozs dry sticky, stinky bud off of the largest NorthernLights.
GoodLuck with yours, Rizcuny.
Ps, it sure is some good smoking, tasting MJ,
 
hycheese 3rd picture smaller plant on the left, larger right. The bamboo poles are used to hold the colas up when they get taller and heavier, keeps them from falling over.
 
rizcuny, I also topped both girls at the 5 node and LST. I vegged them under T5's while my 1st grow was finishing, I miss judged the timing and started them a couple 3 weeks to early so they didn't get under the LED until the 1st plants were finished. I think they would have flowered earlier if put under the LED sooner. Or you're doing a great job and I suck. lol. Yours look great, good job. I'm thinking mine will be ready around the 1st week of Sept.
 
D.A.A.S.69 That looks phat! Hoping I yield around 7oz between the 2 of my autos. Also when do u think mine will be ready judging from those pictures. 50 days old today and have topped them once. I’m hoping to harvest around day 85 ( mid August ) ??
 
rizcuny, I didn't top that plant, I just bent her over, and made a spiral out of her, that's why she has so many colas.
But by day 70, or so you should be seeing some amber on the leaves anyway, some mature faster than others, but all of mine had amber, on the buds an were harvested by day 90. But mine came from Nirvana, where did you get your seeds.?
Northern Lights are notorious for being large size plants, anyway, I bet you get more than what you expect, because the last 2-3weeks is when they really swell up, an pack on the weight, especially if you use unsulfered molasses. Good Luck with yours, and I'll be following you grow, if you dont mind.
