Barely 24 hours after popping, Pinky was transferred into her 4" pot today. She had a little tap root coming out of the bottom of her plug. As usual, I filled the 4" pot halfway with soil. Then I coated the plug and root with @DYNOMYCO and sprinkled some on the soil. I placed the plug in the pot and filled in around the plug about 3/4 up the plug, enough to hold it in place. I put a perlite moat around the outside near the top which aids in watering. Then I covered the top with soil and mounded up the middle. I also pushed down the edges so there's 1/4" of pot showing around the outside so the water doesn't spill out. Finally, she got a thorough watering, first with a spray bottle and then with a 30ml dropper.
I put her in the tent where the last two have started, on an upside-down bucket. Directly under the light was about 15DLI, so I put her in partial shade under Violet to start. You can barely see her from the top view
She's reading right at 12 DLI for her first day in the Vivosun Auto Oasis.#VIVOSUN #SmartGrowSystem #LoveWhatYouGrow
I figure flowering started a day or two before I noticed it.I always mark sprout day as day# 0. I figure day# 1 should be a full 24 hours

Thanks GW. I probably could have called her in flower a few days ago. If anything, I start counting late rather than early. It makes it easier to keep going when she's only in day# fifty-something of flowerI figure flowering started a day or two before I noticed it.
Today, though, I'm calling her day# 1 of flower. She's got nice fat buds at the end of all of her branches, and I love the way she's stacking.

Thanks 70's, she's ready to take over the tent

Pinky is looking good for a 3 day old, nice and green and healthy. She's going through over 20ml of water/day and is up to 2" tall. I'm moving her out of Violet's shadow more each day to get her more light. She's up to 15DLI now.

This lady is really drinking! I fed her twice yesterday, for a total of 5.8L! She only took 2L this morning, but she'll be almost dry by this evening. It looks like it will be twice-a-day feedings for as long as she's averaging more than the res can hold (4L).
So far no new signs of any mite damage but I'm keeping a close eye and have the SNS-217C handy.For now I'm just raising the AeroLights daily to keep her around 40DLI all over. She looks healthy and happy and ready to make some bud!

Thanks Keith. At least 55! 55 days of flower will put her at 99 days total
She's moving along nicely BudMan.
Looking forward!

Thanks GDB. Me too, GDP is one I've wanted to try for a while.She's moving along nicely BudMan.
Looking forward!
It's one of the tops on my fav list!
I grew a photo in 2021 and pretty much have kept it all to myself. Very tasty and kicks like a mule!

Seems like all of your autos run atleast 100 days?? I thought autos were supposed to be in and out in 60-70 days?Thanks Keith. At least 55! 55 days of flower will put her at 99 days total

That's what I thought too. Most vendors say seed to harvest in 70-80 days. And wasn't topping & uppotting supposed to stress them and cause them to flower early? I'm not sure why mine are vegging so long and getting so big. I mean, I'm not complaining

It seems to defeat the biggest upside to autos though, the fast turn around. I guess if the plants turn out to be big Amazon sized heifers though, the added time is well worth it. Hopefully my first auto gives me atleast half the bud that those gargantuan autos give you!That's what I thought too. Most vendors say seed to harvest in 70-80 days.

You could probably get the same turn around doing 12/12 from seed. For me the upside is a perpetual auto tent where the light stays at 20/4 and I harvest 8oz every 40-50 days. Young and old living together, like a community. You could do the same with a 4x4 and harvest every 20-25 days.
Autos also give you the ability to get 40+ DLI across the entire tent with two 100w @VIVOSUN AeroLights. I'd need more wattage for photos.
Thanks RSR, it's definitely more than I expected from autos. I'm going 20-30 days longer but getting 3-5x the yield I expected. I'll take that trade-off
Pinky's on the move (sounds like a movie title!). 
And Violet is really getting massive. Are each of your successive plants bigger than the last?

I remember that was one of @FelipeBlu's arguments in favor of autos many years ago. No need for high wattage when you can run it 20/4.
