My 1st Attempt At AutoFlowers!

I'm in. Your plants look good so far. How long do you plan on keeping them on a stressful 24/0 schedule?

Hey dude and thanks for subbing ! ...

I have literally taken them off a 24/0 period about 18 hours ago ...

They had about 60 hours of total light (24/0)

I started 24/0 straight after germination period until pre vegging.

24/0 gives em that extra punch to help them root and pop through the soil.

Even though, Auto strands can go from start to harvest on a constant 24/0 light period. I shall be testing this method on my 3rd attempt at Autos. My 2nd attempt will be 20/4. So we can all compare the outcome :)

But bare in mind the 2x Berry Delights are normal feminized strands and they've seemed to have loved the 24/0 schedule.
 
Today's Update

Hi everyone!

Hope today has brought green and vibrant glory throughout the day!

Sorry I haven't been here in the last day or so, I've been rather busy. You know how it is :)

Thank you Dresney. Glad to have you on the journey!

Haha thanks Victor. I have alot of spare time on my hands and cooking is something I enjoy !

Yes OZ, infact we just took a cake out of the oven ... Pictures shall be shown when it's finished.

Ok so after having a crazy past 2 days, the little ladies have been doing great under there new time schedule of 18/6.

I am amazed at how fast Autos flowers grow! Most are on their 2nd/3rd nodes and are vibrant green. The Kannabia Special has stretched a little bit more than the rest but I'm guessing this from the strain as it's been the same distance from the light as the rest of them?

Auto Critical seems to be in the lead and showing its 3rd node already! (Just about, you probably can't see due to the quality of the pictures). Hopefully she and the other Auto's will do me proud and maybe even give me a little smoke in time for Christmas! :)

I'm still watering once a day but not much. Just making sure 100% of the soil is moist.

I'm going to be keeping them all in the 1 pint cups for another 14 days (3 weeks total) and then transfer them to my 15 litre round pots.

So here we are with some pictures from today.

Day 7 from seed

Me and the girlfriend went to our local 420 store yesterday and got a few goodies. Including some papers, lighters and cannabis lollipops :).

Thanks again to everyone for tuning in. Feel free to comment and ask any questions you may have.

Green wishes to all !

:Love:
 
Hey DP, been missing you mate :) Glad all is good :). Girls are looking great mate :bravo: I'm waiting for my eggs to hatch lol FRUSTRATED. SHIT man, you mentioned FOOD!!!!! I'm floating "high" and now I'm gonna plunder my fridge lol. Peace and green goodies to you mate :)
 
Ahhhh, Sir Spimp (bow scrape bow) DP, you have 420 ROYALTY on your grow lol :) Congrats mate, well deserved :bravo: :thumb:
 
Looking Great! :party:
Can you see the taproot in the bottom cup yet? Id bet you can as those Autos taproot goes crazy from my experience. :)

Not yet mate. These are quite deep cups.

I'm hoping they'll be close to becoming root bound before I transfer them. Just makes my life easier that's all :)
 
IMO Auto taproots are the key to sizing up your plant. They are a little different than standard Photo's that will just wrap and wrap around a cup. Everyone Ive grown slows considerable once the taproot hits the bottom. Seems like they dont 'side shoot' as readily as Photo girls.
But this could be strain specific too. :hmmmm:
You could probably check with john705 and Donpaul.p as they both have grown quite a few autos. Ive only grown Northern lights X Big Bud, Blue Mammoth, and Trans Siberian Auto strains so far so my data could be just those strains. :)

Overall your grow is looking very nice. :)
