Hey guys, I was previously an active member around 2009, but I had to stop growing and focus on my career. Long story short my then gf and I married in 2010, built our house and moved in just last year. We live in Maine, and as you know weed is legal here!

Anyways, I got myself a 4'x4'x80" tent, 240w(ish) LED, FFOF soil with a random amount of perlite mixed in, and a 400w HID for free from a new friend who also grows. I bought a bunch of auto seeds from Seedsman(Cheesy, Somango, Sin Tra Bajo, Bubba Kush, White Widow, Russian Haze all feminised except the Haze) and 4 autofem White Widow from MSNL. My biggest regret so far is not getting any from Mephisto.

So far I have only given the plants Cal-Mag, and Fox Farm Tiger Bloom just recently since the FFOF soil has enough in it to keep the plants happy for awhile. I did not add any Dolomite which I should have since I have experienced PH problems with my auto grows 9 years ago. I'm hoping autos have come a long way since then and these girls produce some nice buds! The first tent pic was taken 2/28, and the second was taken today, 3/31. Germinated the widows around 2/20, and the Hazes about a week later.

Currently growing in the pictures(breeder/strain):

In Tent
MSNL/White Widow Fem - 4 in the 5 gal bags
Stitch/Russian Haze Regular - 3 females and 1 male planning to use the pollen to get some seeds off one of the females.

In New Box
Philosopher/Cheesy Auto Fem - 2 in 2 gal buckets
DinaFem/Bubba Kush Fem - 2 in 2 gal buckets

Hey man glad to see u back growing. In on my 2nd year and a half of nonstop growing. Started with autos. How old are they? Also lower your light. Your plants are stretching too much. Not gonna be able to support big fat buds if the stems are thin. With that kind of light you should have it at least 10in away from tops. I use 600w hps (much hotter than led) and it stays about 12 in from tips with no problem. Be careful tho too close and you'll bleach your buds.

Also you forgot to mention fast buds.
In my opinion as well as a lot of growers here mephisto is the best for autos followed by fast buds.
I grew there lsd-25 and ended up with 2 oz of dark purple bud with pink hues on the inside. 0 green in the bud. Also very fire. There green crack is good too and has fat dense buds. I did a grow journal for them and think big by dutch passion Just search 600w lsd-25 and it should pop up. I think my next indoor grow will be lsd-25 in flood N drain. With 1 plants for every square ft. Right now I'm doing a lot of reeeeeeally fire photos. One of which (gorilla bubble bx1) tested at 29.9%thcA by the breeder and is the frostiest weed I've ever seen and I'm only 5 weeks since flip!
Anyways lower that light and you will have much happier plants :)

I'll try lowering the lights, thanks for the advice. I'm not used to growing with anything more than 150w so light height for me is a bit experimental right now. Im sure I started with my LED way to high which caused the initial stretching.

Racer, small world! Lived here all my life and don't care to live anywhere else haha

Here's a nice nug from another grower in maine:20170319_091612.jpg

They're popping up here and there up north and a few in the downeast area. A few days ago a friend stopped by who had just come from a new disp. What he purchased was downright shameful. I took a pic of it but I feel bad even posting it.

Thanks, ill look into the el frutero. I started 2 cheesy and 1 bajo inside and they all sprouted pretty quick aftet usinh the paper towel method. Ill get some pics up soon. I had also germed two bubba kush from dinafem but for some reason didnt have any luck sprouting. Getmed my 3rd and still waiting for it to sprout even tho it was put in soil at the same time as the bajo.
