Good luck mate!

 

[Mars Hydro]

thanks for doing this for me.
humm.yeah,no need to worry about the temperature at your growing at all.......but the temperature is getting higher each day here.....summer finally arrive.....
I guess your place still got nice weather.

Sara, you asked for a temp update. Here you go. This is the highs and lows for the past 24 hours. No temp worries at all after adding the Reflector 96.

 

[Mars Hydro]

they are all in great condition.Nice growing.
But why auto use 5 gallon pot,photo need 7 pot gallon? Auto do not extra space for it's root system?

Well right now i have my 4 by 4 tent pretty crowded, i have 6 autos in there, i have some in 5-gallon and some in 3-gallon, i think in the future i will use 5-gallon for all my autos and 7-gallon for my photos, i just like to give them a little extra room for their roots. Here is the best pic i got with the girls in the tent but i will take some better one of the whole tent tomorrow.✌

 

[Mars Hydro]

I C ,so mostly for Auto growing,there root system will finish growing early than photo,right? I mean you auto control the time for VEG. So they do not need to transplant. Now i understand better of them now.

Well i don't transplant autos i start them in the same pot they will finish in but with my photos i usually go from solo cup to three gallon then to five or seven to finish them, i usually transplant out of the solo cup within 15 to 20 days, then they stay in the three gallon for maybe a month but i like to put them in the 5 or 7 about a week or two before i flip to flowering. ✌

 

[Mars Hydro]

will you worry abuot that they may grow too tall,i mean they will grow much taller than you expected?
they are with full power to growing now

This growth spurt is a direct reflection of adding the Mars-Hydro Reflector 96. Two inches in 48 hours.

These lights and company come highly recommended. Thank you Mars-Hydro.

When you were growing outdoor,do you have to check on them all the time? I mean there are too many risk...too many uncertain factors or situations.....compare to indoor growing....
If you grow photo next run,you may veg them longer

Well it depends, i try to put mine in a spot that i can go in and out of undetected, you do have to becareful not to leave any kind of path to your crop, alot depends on weather also, if you have rain showers once a week or so you don't have to go check on them as much but if you have a long dry spell then you will have to check on them alot more to keep water for them. I have been pretty lucky, i live in the Appalachian mountains and i have found a couple nice spots were i have done pretty good.✌

Where I live Sara is the land of perpetual heat. Outside temps are 90 or above daily. Mostly 100s.

Will need to play the "au natural" lil gal by ear Sara. Not concerned yet on height. But will need to monitor this one closely. Awesome that you are so involved with us here. Thank you.

 

[FiveToMidnight]

some auto may not respond well to topping,your plants were doing well

I don't think that's true, all autos should be fine if topped at the right time

 

[GrimReefer83]

Yeah I had a annapurna super auto in a 5 gallon and got 8 oz dry weight I like the 5's better than 3's

Nice ! Great to hear, my baby SuperAnna is about a fortnight old now, any tips for growing her?

 

[Mars Hydro]

it was busy day,haha

90F daily...it's almost the same here...most of the nights are raining,so it's not too cold at night....

[Mars Hydro]

haha,yeah,when they are growing on full power,just let them go...at a certain age,they will grow more branches...then become super frosty.I just worried about too much,haha...cuz they grow taller each day.

I do know,i just read articles....but yes,like you said,many grower topped their plants,they grower better.

[Mars Hydro]

nice color...this light-green color reminds me of spring...everything started turn green...so fresh....
You didn't move them to LED light yet,right?

Yes but most articles will say never to top an Auto at all so you can't always believe what articles say.
I find most people aren't aware that topping autos is possible as the rules always said it would do more harm than good. I think it's more of a new method

Thanks for the interest .

During the day they go into the sunlight .
Sun goes down around 5-6pm, then I move them into a small tent with low watt lights.
At 10-11pm, I put them on the floor of the flowering tent for the 12hrs the 700w is on.

Their home for about 5hrs of the day.
Running - Ripley OG (superauto) White Widow Auto, Annapurna (superauto) and a Blueberry Fem that I'm thinking to make into a new mother plant.

I'll check your journals smokesara if you have some current ones going ️.

I understand that now....that's why the experience more important that the textbook.haha.

Hi GrimRefer83,if you need to know anything about growing,you can ask growers here,but i'm sorry to tell you that you may need to delete the pics of other LED company's light.
We are sponsor on 420mag,if you post other brand LED in our thread,the Admin of 420mag will delete your post later.
You mean you move the plants outside during day time,move them under the lights at night....? How about when they go to flowering stage?
