Fastbud2 - Sweet Cheese - First Grow With Autos

I always thought 24 would help but everything needs a rest and since I switched too a 18/6 the bud and trich production is a lot better and more dense nugs, sadly I havent been phing as I work on the theory that soil buffers and balances everything although I need to get a ph meter for the fish tank so I may aswell check soil at the same time and also run off , chemistry is soo confusing ive always been a physics man but from what I gather 6.5 is the goal if its above its too acidic so add an alkali like lemon juice/baking soda and if its under it to alkali so add an acid like vinegar?
Would a 12/12 schedule work for autos? If so I will start running 12/12 to sex my little hazes now rather than wait untill they are fully vegged? Also I could then run photos and autos in my next led setup :) but I think im definately going too run led 284w would fit my setup I think? Its meant to replace out a 400w hid im in britain so most people are still in the led arent very good mindset I asked at headshop yesterday why they dont stock them and the man laughed untill I explained the added infrared uv spectrums and al the other benefits of led and now there going too look into it but nowhere has led so I cant see one up close in real life untill I buy mine offline which is frustrating lol I will go have a quick browse of your threas now thanks lady v :) dw im real long winded all the time I blame the cannabis expanding my thought processess to completely new dimensions :bong:

Hows the nl snakey meant to pop by for your friday updates but will be heading over shortly you must be nearing a harvest? Will be a real nice harvest when she finnaly comes I think gonna be thursday so 11weeks from seed she has amber trichs stinks like fook its just still throwing out new pistils gonna be real nice smoke well aslong as these damn spider mites didnt hurt her too much gotta give her another treatment monday then rinse n clean wednesday and chop thursday so another real busy week ahead :( :bong:
 
Everything's fine Scotty.well stoned now.just waiting on the Chinese 2 open 2 seriously fill my face.I wouldn't risk 12\12 with any autos m8.if u research it online ull see that most people have had smaller yields by using 12\12,18\6 is def the best 4 those type of plants:thumb:
 
I will be nice and stoned shortly 2 snakelad picked a couple of fresh buds off the already harvested fb as was high amber trich

I know that feel about taking them out and butting them back can be a bugger. It takes two of us to do it. One person lays on the floor and the person standing does the directing. I hope that the treatment works!!! That would be a dirty shame to loose them. Hope things go well :high-five:
 
Hey snakelad I'm starting to run low on weed that's what's happening I got about 4g of fb left and my haze order still isn't through and my bro is down tommorow so may need to go get a q of cheese for a session rubbish would rather have some homegrown :(
but on the upside attitude have a 420seed deal not to be missed so acquiring 6new auto strains for next grow tommorow and some free fem photos for a later date :)

Same here lady v I have to get my misses to help there's just too many pots and I was silly and used round pots got my eye on square 12l for next grow :bong:

Side note on my seed research some say grow under 24hr lighting for best yield :s but on the nite of new seeds I'm purchasing 2 sweet seed strains the sweet afghan delicious and cream mandarin and receive there sweet skunk,jack 47 and a +speed my misses then wants trans Siberian by auto seeds so purchase them and for 420 get various photo seeds fem free and a auto fem hso-blue dream :bong:
 
I no I have my hands full with these 5 strains atm as it is but I want a blown out tent and big harvest next grow with 10strains at once :) got to figure a way for growing my photo seeds got some nive freebies :bong:
 
Nice on the freebies!!! A 4x8 will work for 10 growing trees if they are not to bushy. Doing the Scrog 8 is almost to many plants in my 4x8 and I have 9 in there. 6 wold be plenty if I was doing a Scrog with a Flex twist to it.

What is a photo seed? One for taking pictures of?

Hope you have a good green day :cheer:
 
Is 4x8ft? My tent is 120cmx120cm so I think it's 4ftx4ft but I'm going to stick with autos this time again and each plant only grows around 60cm tall and a spread of around 40cm I think I may just leave them all standard grow as they all vary in size alot lol

Yep a photo plant are those model one that just love you taking pics of them :rofl: only joking photo is short for photoperiod which is so called because they veg and flower due too hours of light and take a long time to grow they veg spring summer when the sun is high and flower in fall when the sun is low and shorter whereas i grow autoflowers as they have a predetermined lifespan no reveg with these ladies once the seeds crack there life has an end date they will grow and flower within a set time so plants take around 3months from seed to bud the plants are smaller and buds aren't as dense but i have quarterly flat inspections so need to hide things every 3-4months so i just about manage squeeze autos in without any risks but need to find out if they inspect loft so camera next visit so i can see and if they don't i can grow photo :bong: bought some cheese today so a lil talkative :# :toke:
 
Ok I got a new phone with macro setting and have taken some nice update pics but for some reason I can't upload yet sooo frustrating so for now I'm going to roll a nice fat cheese blunt and explain my latest theories and findings I'm sorry if I rant or go off track at any point but just remember these are my theories and my thoughts and findings all are welcomed to express views contradict and debate ok so first thoughts are on pots this whole plant straight into final pots the bigger the better I don't think this is actually best my reasons are the fb in 10l pot she showed roots at the base of the pot around week 3 so i thought hey I'll use a 14l pot but I'm in week 3-4 and the leaves aren't very big flowers only just started and the plant is nothing like the rootbound fb i think this is because she is too busy spreading roots underground focusing too much on filling the pot and not enough on producing leaves and flowers can't say she may not have a spurt and give more than a ounce like her sister but i really doubt it my next finding was with the shortrider foster kid she was planted in a 2l bottle as i don't have room for another big pot and as the roots don't spread horizontal and forced to grow vertical down the pot she grew rapidly so i chopped the base off the bottle when they where visible and put her in a tall narrow clay pot and the plant is ridiculous the three fingered leaves are the size of my hand and her true leaves are massive like seriously big and side branches are plentiful and node spacing is immaculate i have 0issues with this plant whereas the rest have had issues where her roots are restricted and she produces more and more above ground to sustain herself its amazing but to show this theory and trial i have a sweetcheese started for a friend in a 2l bottle day 1 today lets see how it goes and to top my thoughts off i finally got out and about people's threads and geordies pot noodle pots me and snakey found so funny don't appear to have stunted his ladies they look great alot of above ground action :)
2nd note is letting plants completely dry before water i am going against this now and only letting dry 3/4 with anyplant you should never let the medium dry completely you cause lockouts soil stops working and various other problems but i went against this as i overwatered in beggining got scared and went with complete dry but my plants which have drier soil have nite issues worse than the rest and when buying my new beans they say do not let medium dry a constant moisture available for the ladies help fatten there colas so I'm going to let there always be a little moisture in the pots :)
3rd note reveg well my chopped fb is throwing out new growth and the small buds i left on are nice and completely covered in sugary but one thing not to ever do is top an auto oh boy was that a major mistake rubbish plant consisting of 2side branches and a cola just and she has many many problems lol anyway that's my 2pence :bong:

I go by the weight of the pot. not to dry or wet. dry soil put the PH at a 7 or more. :blushsmile:
 
Looking good Scottish.
