Figured I'd toss up some new pics of Violet. I'm thinking she's about 3 weeks away from being ready to chop. She's surely all kinds of N def'd and cal/mag def'd. She's only about 14 inches tall, but she's got quite a few dense little buds on her. I also noticed some smaller buds on the inside, so I figured that when I chop her, I'll just take everything from the outside and leave the small buds to see if they'll do anything in an extra couple weeks. Thanks to everyone who has visited and commented. I just dropped 3 more beans in dirt tonight and will be starting a thread for those ladies too. Now, on to pics!!

Dunno if you can make hash with them yellowing leaves or no?

most of the yellowing leaves are fan leaves. If I have any decent sugar leaves when I trim, I'll save those for either butter or hash. I have about an oz of trim in the freezer from my last harvest. I was peeking at some of the smaller buds on the interior, and some of those sugar leaves are covered with trichs, like almost sparkly. So, I should be able to pull some usuable trim. Thanks for viewing!

Awesome. Well let us know how much dry bud you pull from her when the time comes. A couple of oz anyway?

She's not as big as my last plants. They were about 30 inches tall and Violet is only about 14 inches tall, but she's not real stretched out like my last two ladies. Also, her buds are tighter and bigger. I pulled about 4oz total from the last two ladies. I'm guessing(hoping) for 2.5 dry from this one. The small HPS light really seems to have made a difference in the buds and that is the only change I made from grow#1 to this grow. I'm really surprised at how much bud she has on her to be such a short lady.

That's the positive of Auto's man. Small stealthy and fucking healthy product. For that size I would say you have done it to it's optimum level. Good job!

What was the average height it should grow to? Prob about 50-70CM rite?

Breeder and seedbank specs all say either short or low, they don't actually give an average height. Like I said, I've grown one that was 30 inches(approx 76cm) and this one is about 14 inches(approx 35cm) so with that much variance, I can't really get an idea of the average. But, I just popped 2 more NL auto beans, so we'll see what they'll do. I've seen a lot of reviews saying they've grown em small and still pulled 3+oz per plant. I'd be stoked with 3 from her, but I think that's just too high hopes.

Was just taking a look at my ladies. I can't believe how much they are crystaled over. When you really get down in there, especially on underside of a bud, you can see all kinds of sparkly. For some reason, I can't get it to show up good in a pic. I'm about to try. My last NL seed wasn't near as frosted. Has adding the 150W hps in along with the CFLs attributed to this?

Be back with pics soon...hopefully.

Thanks. She didn't get very tall, only about 14 inches, half the height of my last NL, but She seems to have soo much more bud on her. I pulled 2 and quarter from the last one. I'm hoping for at least that this time.

Hey n4g!

I see you got some healthy buds. I bet you would like us to know how they look(/ed) like chopped. ;-)

I would LOVE for y'all to see who they looked chopped. I'm getting antsy as hell waiting on them. But, I'm going to try and be patient and let them go a couple more weeks. I don't need the smoke, but I get impatient waiting to see what they yield. Thanks for looking and your comments!

I had a branch break off that I'm letting dry right now. Probably end up a little over a 1/4 dry on that branch. I flushed her Friday and will probably chop her next weekend. I'm guessing about 2.5 dry total. She's got an awful lot of brown leaves. I definitely going to add more N during my next grow.

Cool
So no serious complications during your whole growth?
