Auto Growers Unite: A Community Thread

Hi! I read your reveg story, I found it fascinating. When I harvested my we just before Christmas I was very busy and the pot and stem ended up sitting in the tent with my candy cane for almost two weeks. Turns out my daughter was sad that I killed the plant and was giving it water every few days..no notes just water (she is 16) , after the holidays when I harvested the candy cane and went to deal with the bodies..there was new growth on the white widow. I still got rid of it because all I read was you could not reveg. This time when I harvest I think I will take the strongest of my plants and give it a whirl. The nice thing about doing this as a hobby is I get to play..if it doesn’t work..no loss but it will be fun to try. I once grew a rose bush from a cut rose..I don’t know what I did to make that rose root but when I saw the roots start I went with it..so never say never.

This is it! :surf:

I’m glad you enjoyed reading about the re-veg. I do plan to try it again with my next Auto - probably a White Widow.
:ganjamon:
 
guess this is the best place to ask about low stress training on autos lol

so its a royal haze from seed, that came from a royal haze auto, not sure what will happen with it, i was given the seeds from a friend so.. my first grow and my first attempts at lst, i am wondering if its a good time to start the bend and secure style or not, so i have 2 of these, and could even experiment and top one too.
the other one is a little behind the one in pics but not much. they are 17 days from sprouting

any suggestions please welcome
thanks
 
this is a perfect time to start bending her to the side ... you can try a round pebble as a counterweight to bend the stem evenly instead of pulling the whole stem to the side ... just start easy a little more bend each day till she is near horizontal
this will maximize the exposure of the side nodes to the lights and the auxin redistribution triggering accelerated side-node growth

thanks for reply, im a little apprehensive il admit lol but after much reading think its what i wanna do

im not aure i can find a pebble at this time though, might have to go out for a look lol
by a counterweight i assume you mean to place the pebble against the stem on the side you willbend over, and gently bend the stem over the pebble as a support base?

spot on
 
Since you have two, topping one above the third or fourth node (after first or second set of 5-bladed leaves), before 21 days, would be a great comparison grow for you.
:surf:

and what would be best time of day to top? the lights come on in half hour. i will feed in 1hr or less. its actually a good idea to do a comparison. i had thought of it but was unsure about wether to do it or not lol still tentative to move on anything, still a nooby hehe

on another point while i have some of yours attention, what will happen with these seeds? will they grow like autoflowers or what lol guess its pot luck even if theyre fem now.
 
Highya Falstaffo,

Do you have any idea what the father of the seed is (what chemovar?}? If he was a photoperiod, your two seeds will be photo also. If dad was an auto, they'll be auto too. Then all the auto rules kick in too. If photo, you can train them most anyway, anytime, etc. I know I didn't explain it very well, but I hope you get the jist. Cheers, man

unfortunately my friend cannot be sure, he said it may possibly be from a dolato. they were all grown outdoors last summer, i believe the royal haze auto was the only auto too, so i suspect they will be photo. i guess the only way to know will be if they start to flower on their own lol

so ive had a go. tell me if its too early after its woken up please lol just a little bend and secure, used some garden wire for now but have a couple hundred pipe cleaners otw

only a little so far, should i pull it over some more now or leave til tomorow?
 
Looking good so far. The reason I asked if auto or photo, if it's auto, you shouldn't top after 21 days above ground, as was mentioned earlier. But photos can be topped as much and often as you want, to make bushier plants. Cheers

hey buddy; so, i spoke to my friend again, he thinks it was stress that cause one branch to produce the seeds, he had been joking around about if it had xpollenated i think thats where i got the dolato from, long story short he ended up with a male dolato that was in same area (outdoor grown) but yeah, he thinks mainly it was stress induced.
how would that affect things? cheers
