My very First Grow

it's going to be tough to tell in advance, mostly you have to guesstimate how much stretch you will see
i just did an indica - vegged to 5 inches over 20 days - flowered out to 29 inches
you were thinking of topping so that might keep it low enough, just once might not be enough
LST though is a different story, that would be a much smaller profile - not sure which route you've chosen

Ok I was thinking of vegging for 2 more weeks and then switching to 12/12. I am not sure where I need to top the plant so i am going to LST it. I started the big one tonight using a coat hanger to bring it down. I would like to get a a couple clones off of them as well. Do you think that will be possible in about 2 more weeks?

that sounds reasonable - if you're LSTing you have a good amount of control - i haven't done LST, just watched some of them in the cfl forum

I did read where I could SCROG it as well. I am not for sure I want to do that though since I dont know if I have any females. I just need to be able to get clones off my plants so I can do this again.

Here is an update with pictures. They are growing strong. I gave them nutes for the first time and one plant loved them and the other plant not so much. I am going to give the smaller plant just water for about another week or so and then try it again.

I also started 2 more seedlings so I can up my chance of getting a female out of this grow. I am also stimulating the economy and building a grow cabinet to get out of the rubbermaid.

They are 20 days old today from when I put them in the solo sup. The seedling in the solo sup is a week old. I gave them Fox Farm Grow Big nutes. Like I said though the smaller of the 2 big ones did not like it yet. The other plant loved it. They are on 19/5 for a light schedule right now. I won't be putting them into flowering for at least 10 more days. I want at least 30 days of veg. I need to be able to take clones off these plants so I can keep my supply if they turn out female.

Is this plant flowering? When I planted my seeds I messed up and forgot to label what seeds were what. I planted an autoflowering plant and I am assuming that this is the autoflowering plant. If it is will it be bad if I keep it on 19/5 for about 1 or 2 more days? I am building a new cabinet and going into overdrive mode to get it situated so I can move the plants into the new cabinet.

The cabinet has 2 sides to it so one will be for vegging and the other for flowering. I can't switch the lights right now because there are plants that I do not want to flower yet.

looks femme to me - haven't grown any of the autoflowers, but i'd think you should be fine<br>
maybe a autoflower expert will chime in

I'm not an autoflower expert, but I am currently growing an Easyryder which happens to be an autoflower. This is about the time when you should be seeing female pistils, and I think I can see a couple in that last pic. Take a look at some of the nodes close to the main stalk and see if there are pistils - not just on the top of the plant.

I don't think there will be any problem with your lighting schedule because the autoflower flowers, well, automatically. Nice plants. Best of luck to you.

Well I built a new cabinet. I was freaking out a little about the smell since I have the one flowering. I made 2 carbon filters and put them in and it was still smelling bad. I didn't realize I had a space where the smell could get through in 2 spots. I sealed those up and those filters are working like a charm. Here are the pics of the cabinet and the plants.

The Flowering plant was an auto flower Roadrunner free seed. The Next big one is Moby Dick Free seed. Both of those are 22 days old. The other ones I just transplanted on Sunday. They are like 2 weeks old.

I'm looking at pic number 4. At about the halfway point between your fingers, sticking out to the right are what look to be a pair of white "hairs". Autoflowering strains, as their name suggests, automatically flower when their internal clock says so.

I believe congratulations may be in order...it's a girl!
