Oh don't mistaken skepticism of people for being afraid to try or do something new. I am always thinking of different spins on things and trying to think of how I can make something better. If you ain't changing, you ain't ever getting better........but not every change will get you better! Just gotta be smart about what you change and hopefully its an improvement! I fail often.....or as I prefer to say, I learned how not to do that.

Best of luck to you in your endeavor. We are attempting to find a niche in the cannabis market as well but its still in the dreaming and planning phase. Perhaps our paths will cross somewhere out there in this crazy world.

standing still = going backwards

And the key is not to change too many things at once. That way you can put your finger on the one thing that changed and not be guessing which one might not have worked.

This might be my favorite thing to tell new growers.

I hear you about skepticism. I have found however it is the skepticism/ or rather fear once I am the skeptic that holds me back from trying things.
The worst was when I thought of my father.
We are both intelligent and dreamers but he fell into a 9 to 5 from college and all of his business ideas never happened.
I have taken that as something not to do, so I just jump in and hope it goes well.
I've run a personal tattoo business for about 10 years, then recession etc.
Went to school and developed software for a year under my own business then worked for a company for 3 years and now i'm leaving IT to start a cannabis business.
This is to help folks choose, breed and cultivate medicine to help either eliminate or reduce dangerous drug use. (I have lost 6 close family members to opiate/benzo/alcohol related ODs. I was next before returning to cannabis).
So we are packing up in 10 days and moving again to be with family and start another business.
The skeptic inside is screaming that the market will be flooded soon, recreational will kill the network etc etc. but I just have to know in my heart it's going to work.
Also good way to be in your situation. I did it that way also for a bit. Let us hope it's not much longer!
Anyway miss you guys, just been so busy!!
I have my season 4 harvest in a week and will be posting pics and stuff.
Cheers and much love!

Glad you got clean before the hard stuff got you too. Shit ruined my life, and took a lot of my childhood friends. Still get calls from friends. Most recent was a husband and father of 2. One relapse. That's all it took. They put fentanyl in everything now even the coke.... which would have had me doing back flips years ago, and now has my stomach turning.

The cannabis industry is a lucrative one. Millions of people with now legal avenues to get meds.

Shed helped me write my resume. Now it's just a matter of getting hired.... best of luck with your endeavors! The world is your oyster now. Go get em!

I think I'll stick to what I know. Frankly I think a 10 gallon pot would hinder an auto. They flip on their own between 21-35 days and in that time you need to have those roots good and established. I don't think I can get the roots where they need to bein that time in a pot that size. I'm wanting to put as little time and effort in this grow as I can or the wife will have something to say about it. Going to try to put the auto watering system on them from veg till the end. Fill the rez once a week and harvest when ready.

I'm no expert on larger vs smaller pots but I am running an experiment right now on two Durbin Poison Auto (Mostly Sativa)
The two girls were planted the same day and been sitting in the tent next to each other. Is it the pot size or just a difference in the way two plants grow. ?? not sure.

Posey - grown in a 2 Gallon Pot and is 18" tall

You left out some crucial info. Are you running hydro or soil? Auto or photo? I'm just saying in my garden it wouldn't help me or I haven't seen it to be beneficial. The 3 girls I started this journal with were photos that I vegged for 52-54 days. Those yielded me over 20 oz's of rock hard buds in 3 gal fabric pots. Those 2 plants you have going could be different pheno types so I'm not sure your experiment is going to let you really make an honest conclusion. You would need to take clones off of the same plants to really know what your trying to achieve with your experiment.

She just doesn't like the time I spend on them is all. The comparison grow with the vault I'm going to try to show how little time you can spend on a auto and still get a decent yield. Or maybe not but that's the route I'm going with this grow.

in hydro I don't think it matters for an auto. Usually they start to flower before the roots are anywhere near filling even a 3 gallon pot

my pots are filled with about 15l of cocos ... thats about 4 gallon ... and my autos filled them without a problem .... about hydro you are correct about pot size you jump the ship a bit in my humble opinion ... maybe 3gallon for soil maybe more if it is well amended ...

i spend 10-15 minutes per day on my plants ... i spend way more time looking at them and making pics though ... with the right setup you can reduce that to 20-30min a week (Rdwc with decent sized reservoir)... of course i only have two going at the very most usually just one ...

I'm going to try to keep things to 20 min/ week other than 2 defol/ training sessions

I've never run soil but I would think that is where size matters

Sorry - I'm Hydro in CoCo. growing only Autos. The two Autos I showed are from the same 5 pack of seeds so would expect them to be relatively similar. I agree two clones would be a good test but not really possible with Autos.

I really can't compare an Auto to a Photo. I recently harvested one of my Auto Ultimate's frown in a 7 gallon fabric pot and she produced about 15 ounces of dry firm buds. Really looking forward to chopping her sister in the next week or so.

That's awesome getting 15 zips from an auto. If I was you I'd run all of them in 7 gallon fabric pots
