These are the last photos of Precious,
my DDA.
I changed to many variables on this grow, first LOS and the soil was incorrectly proportioned and first Auto to finish, my other 3 seeds planted were eaten by mice. I was still able to pollinate her with Critical Jack colloidal pollen and have +100 seeds that are dark ,mature and viable looking.What can I expect for Geno type when crossing Auto with Photo?
Way to go buckaroo! 
She's so unique in appearance. What a beauty, eh? Go ask Nis and Canna about crossing them. They did that with DDA and Carnival, and I'm growing out a photo pheno from that breeding adventure.

Day 17 after a good tie down;
Beautiful restraining job smokie.
I never catch them at the right time for this. 
Lately they've been getting away from me. When you miss the window of opportunity with autos you're pretty much committed to dealing with whatever comes. You'll definately increase your harvest yield.

Day 48
Outside: Between the wild fire smoke last couple weeks and clouds that have rolled in this week light intensity is about the same outside as in the basement grow room. Temps have dropped to mid 70s day, 60 and lower at night. If I was going to get purple leaves I think they'd have started turning by now. I'll try to be patient. At least the buds are pretty.
Inside: Growth is a little denser than outside, but I can definitely see a lot of stretch in past week. Purple on the leaves is only from the LEDs, in normal light they're just as green. (sigh) Buds look smaller and don't have as much purple as outside. Temps are steady at 70 night and day. Pretty soon the outside will drop to 60s and 50s and be getting less light than this one. So many variables and they keep changing. This one may catch up and pass her sister before we're done.
Still getting used to the smaller size of autos, seems like they should be bigger and fuller at this point. Doesn't help that I have this one to compare them to. My Black Cherry Soda mother has been growing outside almost completely untended. Unfortunately she won't flower unless I bring her inside. Too much stray light. That's one reason I decided to try autos again, I love growing outside.

The staining of the leaves sometimes comes later in the cycle KR, so don't give up on that expression yet. They start off so slow that we all worry, and then they take off and fill out in ways that can astound, as cannabis is prone to do. It's so fascinating to watch them develop into huge and fragrant beauties from such small beginnings.
The haze of wildfires has certainly presented an unexpected snafu, hasn't it? Dissapointing, to say the least. Do try again next year when the atmosphere should be more accommodating.
They look lovely and ready to begin showing off their stuff. I always look at them at this stage and have to suppress the urge to be disappointed.
Then they redeem themselves and grow like mad. You have a good ways to go yet.- Thread starter

You're both growing beauties. Lol!
Jones....... Damn son!!! :110: Those ar some of the chunkier DDA buds we've seen so far. Very well done. And Htwndabs... Wow! What color you're getting. I agree, you're within the two week window, so watch her fill out even more for you. I get massive bulk in the final week. That's how I determine they're done. As soon as they stop bulking up I wait another week, if I can restrain myself. Lol.
I really need to get the girls done in my closet so I can get more DDA planted. Last night I finished up what I had left on hand, and it was enough to offer me mild hallucinations for two evenings straight, making me hunger for another harvest.
As soon as those girls get harvested I'm planting two more seeds.

I know the anticipation is killing me sue , I need to harvest soon I'm running out of room in my tent because I have this photo I've been vegging since the start of my dda and it is getting massive . I plan on scrogging it as soon as I harvest . This plant is right under 24" tall and 24" wide . I've constantly had to prune it this last month just to keep her in check . I've built a 2x2x2 scrog I'm hoping to fill up . Kind of anxious to see what happens this being my first scrog and all . Here's a couple pics of my photo plant . Strain is the church by Greenhouse seeds . I trimmed her again last night these are before and after pics .

I've over-extended the capacity of my flowering spaces, meaning I'll have a couple in veg that'll probably have to go about three to four months befor I'll have room to flip them. It's going to be a fun time watching me try to control their growth. Working in hempy with this nute line I'm using they're exploding in growth. They're much easier to slow down in soil.
She's gonna do nice by you.

I need help deciding on harvesting today while I have time. 
The trics are purple instead of amber. They are all cloudy and huge.
DDA from sweet seeds in that awesome 3+1 package.

If the trichomes have gone purple you're ready to chop. Isn't it the coolest thing how they do that?

DDA#1 is looking more impressive this week. Buds are swelling all along stem, and purple is noticeable all the way across yard. I no longer care whether I get purple leaves, the contrast is so pretty.
Shadows are getting longer, daylight shorter, but she's picking up speed, pulling further ahead of DDA2 in basement grow room. About a month to go, I hope I can keep her outside to the end. Indian summer would be really nice. I'm actually considering ending my experiment and bringing DDA2 back up, but probably will stick it out. There's still a lot to observe between these two.
