Arteekay's Second Grow - Autos & Feminized - Mixed Strains

Bummer that red poison stayed green. Mine is not showing any color yet either. Im hoping it starts to creep in. Thats the whole reason i wanted to try it out in the first place. When did your other one first start to color up? I have 3 more seeds to try... One of em better be damn purple! lol

Don't mind me, I'm gonna take a seat in the corner and then go back and browse through your journal more.

It can be maddening Lazarus. :laughtwo: I have three Dark Devil Autos running in my grow and one of the three decided to forego the fabulous purples. The breeders warn you that about 20% will be color-deficient, but it's still a shock when it happens.

I knew going to a room was going to give you the space to start side projects. Cloning is going to change the game! Veg plants need much less light so now you will be able to revisit certain plants on demand. Right now new plants are making me a bit crazy as every grow is an unknown for me too! But soon I will have a big library and think "what do I need to regrow for next round? What jars are getting empty??!!"

We've had some pretty good harvests lately, so we're a bit overstocked at the moment. But the thought of our POW or WW being incredible, and being able to keep her for future rounds is just too good to pass up now that we have all this extra room.

Plus you can cull a poorly performing plant and replace it with another. I always have a few extra in veg I can upcan and flower. They compete at every stage of growth for the coveted flowering room spots. Because Veg takes less energy and work having a surplus there is almost like skipping the seedling stage. It's like starting plants when ready to flower in a way. Growing from clones is like having a super auto. You take a plant from veg and poof it goes right into flower. I have clear under bed storage boxes. You can keep plants in 16oz pots for quite some time and 9 plants will fit in 1 sq ft! I just cut mine back like a hedge.

I can't figure out how you manage the number of plants you do. It's mind blowing to me. Not entirely convinced we'll ever approach even where you were when I first met ya a year ago next month.

Having said that, we started with the idea of a small cabinet, and now have an 8 by 10 foot room with a 4x4 tent for 12/12, so I won't rule it out.


You set a near impossible bar though brother.

:high-five:

ShiggityFlip,

I purchased some cloning supplies before I started my current grow, but the "timing" was never right to take clones (ie. I was a bit nervous about doing it...this being just my 2nd grow).

I was interested in what you were saying about how you maintain/store your clones, do you have any pics of your setup?

Her leaves ended up being purple, but every other Sweet Seeds seed we've popped has been deeply colored throughout the buds with green leaves. She's a decent smoke still though, based on early testing.

Our previous have always started to show color right along with showing preflowers, starting with the center of the newest sugar leaves and tiny new calyxes. The contrast between the bright white hairs and dark nugs can't really be fully appreciated in pictures or video. Stunning.

You go right ahead and grab a front row seat. I'm posting far less often lately and there's plenty of room. If you go back to my journal of our first grow, you can enjoy us stumbling all over the place, but even now one will occasionally go bad... like our third Dark Devil. That girl is a mess! :)

I dumped all my retrospective posts from our second journal as a list in our friend Fuzz's journal. I missed doing any for the last two or three I think, but there's a pretty good sampling, good and bad.

You remain far too sweet to me than I deserve. Love ya Sue.

Our third Dark Devil thankfully is showing good coloring on her buds, despite her otherwise pitiful appearance.

For smaller spaces with no ready access to clones, I personally think autos are the way to go. A perpetual grow can be established to provide a reasonably secure supply on one unchanging light schedule simply by staggering germinations so that you are harvesting at least one plant every few weeks.

I'd say good morning, but even good day doesn't cover it. Good week to you! :Love:

Thanks for stopping by Canna. I havent' been by your journal in quite a while so there's no chance of catching up, but I'll be by to check out at least the last couple of pages today.

Thanks Rooster, I'll have to check her posting history and join ya on the trail. Lead on Fuzz! :)
 
Alright, time to get caught back up on pics.

Here's what I got for Sept 30.

Our poor third Dark Devil, she's been bad since the first set of real leaves

And their clones

What a shame that DDA turned out to be a dud. Can you get reimbursed on your next order? This is not what you signed on for.

Good to see pictures going up. Miss you. :hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs:



......... Oh yeah, I'm potting up my first rooted clones right this very minute. Well, not this minute..... You know what I mean. :laughtwo: I'm a little excited. I'll catch up later. Gotta post this on my own journal. Lol!

Don't forget Charlie shots. :circle-of-love:

Na, wouldn't even think of asking for it honestly. Our first two were fantastic, and I think this one will still produce something.

Congrats on the clones!! How odd is it that we're within a week of each other on that, right?

:high-five:


:hugs:
 
Last Saturday, Oct 1

Time came for us to jar up our second Canuk Seeds Lemon Skunk auto. A day later she was at 65-68% RH, so these numbers are pretty close to final, we'll call it 9.8 ounces.













​




The photos, CKS White Widow and CH9 POW 33, and their clones







​




Family shots of the autos

Onto October 2!

Time for our second Sweet Seeds Red Poison to end her time in the ground, but first the rest of the pics from that day.


Our photos, first White Widow and POW 33 and their clones:





​

Apparently then skipped a couple days, and October 6th is next. I only have tonight's after this.




First up is the photos, a CKS White Widow and a CH9 POW 33, and their clones

























​




Next up is our third CKS Northern Lights auto
