As I thought, just checked, the autos, the parents of these growing, were tall by themselves too. Auto Jock Horror from Nirv., Auto PEX ( pineapple express) They were also grown in HB soil, but not 11/13 from seed. They were 18/6-->12/12, got a great yield from the JH, since I had only seeded 1 1/12 of the 3 AJHs. The PEX produced was considerably less. I tasted it only once, after the rest went in my pot potpoirre.
Im looking forward to that mix's smoke.
From what ive observed so far from seed 11/13 is this..
The seeds that become females basically become autos..
No need to change light schedule from 11/13 ..goes from seed to flower..
Sexed in 2-3 weeks,
Pistils growing while plant still growing..
But like most autos I read or the few ive grown, they are shorter and less yielding than their fem'd or reg->female plants do.
I have a couple of shorties ready in what, about 2 weeks?? Its the Mexican, and the Kwazulu..i have never seen either one so i have no idea what they do look like. But theyre about 12" tall, at most..they have very dense buds..they look very similar but smell very different. Looking forward to those too.
