Pineapple Express G13 vs. Zambeza

I'm not sure what's what, but if they're autos here's a few tips.

Don't clone them, it's worthless as they're on the same internal timer as the mother.
Don't top/prune them, they need every second of non stressed veg time possible. - only use LST.
Don't transplant them. Germ emm, them put them in the final pot or drip setup ect.
Autos don't need a 12/12 ever, for flowering or otherwise. I run 18/6 or 20/4 for the entire grow. Some run a full 24 with them.

The last few shots look far better lol, resilient little fuckers ayy.

They weren't advertised as autos. They were the only pineapple express I could find that weren't supposed to be auto so I wonder if they have some auto genes still in them or if the root slime stressed them into flowering earlier.

I'm not too worried about it, I should be able to get a good sample from these four and if they don't clone, I still have a bunch of other seeds I can grow.

My bad I think I misread the orig post ;)
 
Pineapple express is a semi auto strain anyway

I`m not sure if they used ruderalis or just a very early skunk

but it`s faster flowering then the original pineapple, not sure if it came about just before or just after the 1st low ryders a lot of people say it flowers up even at 20/4

that being said C99 is not an auto but that will flower at 16/8 even shows sex hard at 18/6 so there`s some photo plants out there that act somewhat auto`ish

GA3 would make them veg up more

I grew C99 and noticed the same thing, it flowered way too fast for me. I would clone it and then have to reveg it. I just gave up on it. I think I'm gonna get some really long flowering landrace sativas next time I order seeds.

Yeah they are fast I would flower them @ 14/10 for 2 to 4 weeks then step it down to 12/12 or 10/14 anything under 16 hours and they`ll show sex and make fluffy buds also with c99 its best to top early in veg or you end up with tons and tons of small buds and trimming them up is a lot of work

but the tropical fruity smell you miss it after you don`t grow it for awhile

just I find 1 in 10 or even 1 in 100 flower way too fast with small buds like 6 weeks and there done, normally they have a more menthol minty like smell to them over the normal papaya type smell c99 has
 
#2 is starting to look different. The leaves are darker and thicker with way more trichs on them and the buds seem to be spaced apart more with less leaf. So far I'm liking this one more than the others.

All four clones are rooted and putting out new leaves.

I started flowering 3 of the clones on September 1st. They got really big in the bubble buckets. One of them is messed up because the air pump was accidentally disconnected for a few days but the other two look great. This is going much better than the first run.
