Autoflower Myth Busting Thread

[Atrain]

High all
Thought I would chime in on how ATRAIN suggestions has made my 1st auto grow fairly easy and successful.
Per Atrain instructions I ran 3 Hso sour diesel sreds and yielded over 400 grams.

He'll yes stage..... congrats on the awesome haul brother

All of the plants in the above pics were autoflowers... they range in yield from 3.5 oz to 6.75 oz and range seed to harvest 58 to 90 days... they were grown under everything from t5,cfl,hps,and LED.

I put Olga the smaller auto ultimate in jars today....she weighed in at 292 grams dry to 63%... Yes that's over 10 oz

 

[thebeast27]

She is dry already? How do u dry ur buds mate?

 

[Atrain]

I chop from the plant straight down to trimmed nugs.... then place them in paper bags and tape the paper bags to the wall in a dark closet

She may lose a few grams while burping and stuff during cure but @63% she's dry

I dampen a paper towel with warm tap water then squeeze it out, fold it over once. Place my seeds on it, fold it over them. Two layers of towel above and below the seeds. I place that on a small dish 4"x6"x0.5"deep. Wrap that in plastic wrap. Cover with a dark towel and place on top of the tv where it is warm. 36 hours later I place the now sprouted seed into a rapid rooter plug and place it medium deep in my hydroton basket. It all goes into the tent; lights, fans, timers all on. 600w hps about 2 to 3 ft above them. As they grow I lower the light until I find the sweet spot.

Place the seeds on top of the tv?? You still have an analog tv ?
Mine is too skinny to sit anything on top.

If it isn't broken, don't fix it. 1985 RCA 27" console.

I used the soak method. Place the seed in a cup of water for about 12 hours then place directly into pre soaked soil. Then i cover with plastic till the shoot pops and stands straight up. It took about a day for the shoot to break the soil.

classic! the only things that will ever break on that will be the tube and your foot.

Maybe the high voltage power supply, or the deflection amplifier. When it dies I'll replace it with a $150 no name flatty. Cheap bastage that I am. Until then it makes a great germinator, 100% success so far.

Hmmm...wonder if 7 class A power amps would make a good heat mat

Probably but definitely not the most efficient way to go lol
