Bak's first auto

[Bakatare666]

This is a thread on my Blue Mammoth started by request of some friends instead of keeping it in with my other plants.
Planted on the 27th of last month and popped on the 29th at midnight, so I guess I would call it the 30th.

.

Here it is on August 3rd.
.

.
Here on the 6th at 7 days old.
.
Yesterday I transplanted into a regular Solo cup and started feeding low doses of Big Bloom.

Alright lets see what you can do this should be good

 

[Bakatare666]

Thanks bro.
It should stay plenty small enough for me to do under my Winter CFL setup with only a little LST'ing.
I heard autos don't really respond well to topping, so I guess I'll just wait and see what happens.

 

[SxIstew]

subbed good luck my friend. gotta run. check you later

 

[~Dankster~420]

You should do really well with her bro. Well hell, as you seen with the one I had grew out, (Blue Mammoth) I only topped her 1 time her entire life, and didn't do any LST'N or cropping her, she still stayed well under a foot tall, maybe a few inches over. Nice & compact, and like said a super good smoke.. she is a nute whore! Lmao! And she also LOVES the Molasses. Hell I feed the 1 I ran all through vegging & flowering.

But hell yeah bro, keep up the great work, and I will keep a check on her. Subbed 4 sure!!

Your bro, Dank.

Your bro, Dank.

Somebody told me autos don't like to be topped, is that wrong?

Well, it impacts yield because of the short veg time.
They only veg for about 3 weeks and it takes a while for the plant to recover from being topped.

 

[roseypeach]

This is good stuff to know!!!!!

I'm gonna go ahead and top her then, unless you tell me different Dank. PLEASE LOOK before answering..

there's a good pic of her so you can see exactly how tall she is.

I did an update on my 'thread' no journal to go to...and Bak even enlarged the pics for me! he's so sweet

you gotta check out the flowers on my Funky Medina--yeah--I named it...had to be able to talk about it besides 2 headed monster LMAO

I used my currency scope and you can really see the juicy trichs fillin out...mmmhmmmmmm

OK, I'll play it by ear.
Dank says once she starts, she will really take off, so maybe I'll have a few nodes in a couple weeks.
She's getting droopy today, and I'm torn between watering again with a little more food, or riding it out hoping it's just shock from the hack transplant I did yesterday when all the soil fell off the roots.

No nutes yet bro!
She looks like she got burned a little already.
Start feeding once the cotyledons have shriveled up

Well, idk who would think that! Lol. Every auto I've ever ran I've topped, and as you've sseen on the thread, they all did fine with it, and I'm sure produced more smokable tree then if they went untopped.

Let's see..

I had named the "BM" wrong I named it OB in the picture (green sand bucket) but that's her when she was younger, and her buds when she started flowering.
Its hard to pull up old pics on this damn phone, 1 being cause it don't list there strain names. Lol

* but yeah, whoever said that is dead wrong bout that mess.. lol

Damn nice pics again bro.
OK, I will plan on topping at least once then, depending how fast she fills in.

 

[~Dankster~420]

Well what I do is wait till there working on say there 3 or 4th node, tthen top. Then I wait till those 2 new tops start forming then stick them into the 20/4 light cycle. All there is 2 it. So that leaves me nothing left but to do it!

Holly hell! I am a poet & didn't know it... Go figure.. lol

 

[~Dankster~420]

Thanks bro.. Yeah, I guess I could've went back through the thread & grabbed a few pics of her, but hell its moving so fast & I can't even remember what part she (BM) was in now..

It's because everybody loves ya man!!!!!

sorry though,

 

[Bakatare666]

OK, here's some pics from tonight.
11 1/2 days old, and she looks sadder than yesterday.
I'm trying to figure out if she's just mad because of the hack transplant (I just dropped her into a hole in the cup and filled around since there weren't enough roots formed yet to hold any soil, not to mention I lost the tip of the taproot because it was stuck through one of the drain holes), or if she's thirsy and hungry again.
Any thoughts?

Thats about what mine looks like, she looks thirsty

That's what I was hoping to hear.
I started feeding a little Big Bloom the past couple days because the coty's turned yellow so quick (about a week ago), and I'm about to start giving a little Grow Big too, if she doesn't perk up soon.

 

[bigworm6969]

I never grew an auto before but it seems like its takeing for ever to get a new node, mines like the same ages as ur exept mine has long ass stem on it, but looks just like yours, idk might ill put that bitch under the big light for a few days to keep it from stretching
