love the grow bro. your doing a fantastic job, and the plants look great. i dont know if this has already been asked, but why are you doing all auto flowering. you invested so much money into all of this shit and i dont feel youll get half the money you invested back this round or next round. do you think you will? i hope you do! like i said though, the weed looks fantastic, so does the setup. ill be stickin around for this one!!
Thanks bro....well the main reason i'm doin all autos is because they are fast! 63dayz on avg. The time it takes me to harvest the same amount of reg. strains I can be havesting my 2nd auto crop and starting my third...MORE WEED IN LESS TIME!! And even more when doing a perpetual/stagger harvest...[like what i'm doing now] Trust me, I know all about the lower yeild/low potency crap, BUT it beats out all that BULL SHIT SWHAG/BRICK/DIRT SHIT IN THE STREETS!! AND people PAY the SAME per zip as reg. strains...AND NO, I wont get back what I invested THIS ROUND, BUT the next one I will...<which by the way is equivelent to the time frame if I were growing reg strains.....<SEE?!!!! and when it's all said and done by the years end, I will have more ganja grown & harvested than a reg. strain, which to me makes more sense for the time allotted, which = more $$$$$! BTW, dont get me wrong, I am by no means knocking down the king strains of the ganja world, its just these work out better for me and my current situtation....when it's time to upgrade and I move, TRUST ME, I WILL BE GROWING, Bubba Kush, WhiteBerry, NYCD, WW, GDP, Violator Kush, Blackberry, Bubblegum, Grape Ape,lemonskunk,critical mass,purple power,la confidential jus to name a few<I have these seeds already!!!! Gonna Go/Grow hard in a water farm 24 2 gal pots hydro set-up in one of those newer 8'd x 8'l x 7'h growlab tents with 2 x 1000hps, maybe with a watercooled light set up<either fesca-sol or icebox heat exchangers....<keep that heat in fucking check & keep them nosey azz helicoptors flir outta my bizz!! AND one last thing...all of this equiptment being used now will be put to use for, guess........? right, AUTOS! growing alongside those reg. strains...while them time consuming reg. plants are jus finish veggin I will be harvesting autos...and when those reg. plants are finishing i will be harvesting MORE autos!!!! Dont knock em' include em'.....

nice plants. how come you didnt tale us you had Thai Super Skunk ???? did you clone them? i whould love to see them in some flower action..how big of pot you going to transplant them into?
Thanks mann....I DID tell you guys about it from the very beginning. I also gave lil' updates every now and then...if you go back through the thread you will see...nahh, I didnt clone em, they were freebies from an order I placed a year ago and I thought hell, lets see if they will sprout, and here we are! WAIT! did you mean if I took clones from them??? No, I didnt....Come to think of it I should, HUH? thing is, i dont know if they will be girls, but what if i get a girl right?? whatta ya think I should do???

yeah, you right about taking forever...those plants are almost 2mo old and just in veg....I guess it's gonna take another 2mo to flower and finish<if I get a girl that is....transplanting tomm. to 2 or 3gal nursery pots and may have to put outside..dont have the space or area in any of the 3 tents for 12/12

Ya feel mi !!!! But the hard work is FAR from over..there is still the dreading "trimming"....LOL! Anywayz,I really wanted them to get bigger...well the ak's at least<guess it was the late transplant and low PH in the beginning....the WD's are about right as far as their height goes and all of them are STILL putting out new white hairs??!!! it's looks crazy...trust me the pics are not doing the actual plants justice....That is why for my future grows I am going with nothing but the 2'+ autos......I need to figure out a couple of things though....1.how to get my humidity up around 50-60% on avg. 2.MORE LIGHT in the veg stage!< I have that 4 blub 4' HO T5 fixture in there now putting out 20,000 lumens...But I really want more light/more growth without rediculus heat spike....so I was thinking of getting another 4 bulb 4' HO T5 light fixture to put in there with the current one....which would = 40,000 lumens!! <less heat, but almost equivelent to a 400MH....and #3.my starter pots....remeber, I CAN NOT START THEM IN THEIR FINAL POTS because I will be starting, on avg., 35 seeds,,,,[Cant put 35 3gal bags in a 4'L x 2.5'D space...] sooo, after trail and error of first trying 18oz party cups<not deep enough, 9.5"D tree pots<their perfect BUT!, only flaw is the bottom of them has these 3 potrouding 1/2"W opening that are 2" long.....these make it VERY difficult for them to stand straight and are prone to FALL OVER! imagine that shit! Sooo, I finally decided to use the same damm grow bags I use for flowering, just a smaller one...the 1gal grow bags are 10" deep and 5.5" wide...plenty of room for autos in those first couple of weeks.....whacha think...sorry for the loooong drawn out post..thinking to0 hard again...LOL

Sounds like a plan to me dude, i like the idea of another set of T5 HO's they run so much cooler and consume way less energy. I have grown with CFL's before and have been impressed with the veg response, but there is nothing like that HPS for flower. One thing what light schedule did you run on these guys. I tried looking back but could never find it.

I personally think that you can finish in the 1 gal pot. I currently have my girl in a 1.3 gal nursery pot and it seems to be perfect. She likes where she is i think Im just ready to see what you have now :)

That's what my brother said..."sounds like a plan to me".....hence my screen name; "uptosumpn"! lol! And Really?? You are finihing it in a 1.3gal???? How tall & how old is it again?? Well as everybody says; "autos love bigger/deeper pots"....So i dont know if I would leave them to finish in a 1gal...? although it would prevent transplant shock and could put more in the flower tent...btw, it is a 600hps in there...gonna re-configure it when this grow is done...i'm going to put the light in a cool tube with a separate 409cfm inline fan attached....<I want the temps to stay in the 70's..although my temps were in the mid 80's through-out...really trying to get an "optimal enviroment" for the next round of 22, which 6 of them,[sour60's] are 2wks today...the other 7 are on day 3....2 M15<fems,1 purple jem,1 sour60, and 3 auto assassin....1 other auto assassin is still trying to sprout and the other 8<2 blue streak,3 M15, 1 auto assassin,1 purple jem and 1 sour60 never came up!!! Very Pissed! Whatever.....
