Stanks Go Perpetual In 2018!

The Jack Herer plant is a super example of a modern auto. I want to ask how many times did you top it? That is a lot of branching. I have grown a handful of autos and have only topped one time for each plant and right at the 4th node.

Hi! I had never grown an auto before this JHA grow. I’m super pleased with the turn out so far. I topped after the third, expecting 4 strong branches. She started slow and skinny, but has filled up and is now happily growing along (nothing like Van’s, but ok nonetheless:)). Will have to try more autos in between grows for sure.

Cheers.
 
Good Green Day, Stanks , and all... been catchin up today and i gotta tell ya impressive growth for the stankberries I have been watching for those, although your JH makes a person wanna start a few autos.... My heart says yes, my mind says recess over now back to work... lmao.. Hope all had a great weekend, and I just caught the Ms Stank avatar.... So cool and funny... Gonna read up on her later... six o Stella and a bud for the bowl my friends

Hey Hacker, thanks for stopping in. I am definitely impressed with the Stankberry as well....its had such vigorous growth from the beginning. I only hope the smoke will be as nice.

That Jack Herer Auto is my first attempt at autos.....lol....I might have to retire from them after that one too. Might be difficult to match it! I am digging her!
 
Damn that Jack is looking huge. I have seen some pictures of some auto's that got pretty big but not many. You're doing something right. Good work there stank. I will say this about GHS's product. They are vigorous growing. My train wreck is shooting up and DiVilles did as well. I don't have the height restrictions as some do but 4 weeks in veg and 3 more at 12-12 and she is almost up to my ribs and I am 6'-1". I hope she stops stretching soon.

Thanks Sam....I don't know what I am doing right with her other than leaving her alone for the most part. I can assure you that I have less than an hour total invested in her other than watering. She was such a funky grower early on, I just kind of set her in the back of the tent and let her grow.

I agree! I didn't like auto anymore cause I thought they were flowering too soon. But looking at Stank's plant make me realize I just didn't know how to grow them well by that time. The jack is so huge and could take that big amount of training before going to flower! That s simply impressive!

She didn't get much training at all Flash. It might look like it but I did one bout of ponytail training with her. I topped her once and shortly after she was topped, I started spreading her out. Today and one other time were the only times I adjusted or added any of my pipe cleaners to spread her open wide.
 
Hey Van! How tall from soil to top is your JHA?
Maybe 18" from the top of the soil to the highest point. Most are probably in the 12-15 inch area. She is short and wide but slowly starting to stretch a little.

Very nice Mr. Stank...... :thumb:

I topped once.....probably around the 5th maybe 6th node, but I think it was the 5th. I topped on day 22 from her breaking soil....so about 30 days ago.

Interesting watching the auto JH. This auto strain development is amazing. I am impressed with how far they have gotten with it. I am guessing but i am thinking without topping and spreading it out it might have been a perfect little christmas tree. Arjan's seems to all about presentation and smoke quality.
 
Here is a little bit of a timeline and a recap of my training for anyone interested in what I did.

She was dropped directly into soil, no paper towel and she went directly into her 8 gallon pot on Feb 12th. She popped above soil on Feb 15th.

Here she is at day 12


Here she is at day 16


Here she is at day 20, still no training yet.


I topped her on Day 22 and let her grow for a few days before starting the bondage. Here she is 4 days after I topped her on Day 26. This is when the explosion started and she hasn't stopped. All I did was use some alligator clips and pipe cleaners to stretch her out.


Here she is on Day 30. Lots of growth over those 4 days.


All I did from here on out was to adjust the pipe cleaners a couple times and added a few pipe cleaners to new branches on two different occasions. Aside from that, it was only plucking 3-4 leaves a day and watering when she was thirsty.
 
Ended the night by taking three clones of the Blue Dream. Figure I need two, take one extra just in case!

With that, I am going to sign off and watch some teli with Ms Stank and try to figure out what I want to smoke tonight. Can't wait to have more night time selections....is this Northern Lights done yet?

Thanks for the recap!

Where can I find the pink stuff? I tried to look at it on the net but didn't know what to write in the Google search :p

Just go to the craft department at Wal-Mart. They sell it there for sure because that's where I purchased mine. However, I am not sure of color options. I bought white. They are basically extra long pipe cleaners.

Thanks! Where I leave there is no Wal-Mart but I may be able to find it now thanks to the words "long pipe cleaners"

:Namaste:

Edit : found it! Thanks again
