bad news on my end, some how i switched my timer off so my lights ran for 24hrs str8 without me noticing, these plants are strong, so i dont really see it being a major problem but i figured i would share
FullDuplex, Mossys-
This is a great thread that has been started. I am currently growing 2 Himalya Blue Diesel AF, 14 days from germ Sunday under a 430 watt HPS bulb. Sorry no pics. They will come. This is my second grow. Little diaapointed that of the 5 pack ony 2 germed of fem. seeds. I would like to know more about how to use white wine vinegar to lower PH of soil. Currently I have the plants in FFOF soil and the PH is 9 and need to bring it down. Some questions are do i bring it down gradually being it is so high? How much vinegar would you mix to a gallon of poland spring water? how often to you give the soil a treatment? I do not have a PH meter and need to get one at once but want to begin treatment. I have Dynagro pro foilage 9-3-6 and plan to use it straight thru but need to get the soil straight first.
b.R.- How is your HBD coming.
Thank-you all in advance.

like JM said it should be showing sex. But to know what stage your baby is in Af and photo is either balls (male) pistols (female) those would be in flowering. If none still in veg. With autos veg is VERY short (if any)

Should read this thread through and through... that IS the BEST advice I could give you.. collective information is da shit!
key components:
1) Root depth is thought to trigger flowering... therefore: the bigger the pot the bigger the yield
2)lighting should be kept between minimum 18 hrs a day up to 24 hours yields are typically best between 18 and 20 hours of light with 4 to 6 hrs rest period or dark period
3) Start in soil with NO Nutrient!
4) when fertilizing wait until 3rd week and even then only 1/4 the normal nutes... perhaps only 1 veg feeding... the rest will be in flowering.. always use 1/4 strength or wekaer nutrient solution for autos or you will cause lockout!
that should get you started... read read read...
happy growing and welcome to the forum my friend!

I find it funny how everyone is sticking to the 4 weeks flowering rule.... have you guys grown any autos that were sativa dom... and have you guys grown outside... if so this rule does not apply....
Out side my autos are taking from 5 - 6 weeks to show all the males from females

JM..you shocked the life out of me this morning..
I had a look in before I went to the beach with the dog..and you hadn't posted any girls...
I thought I wasn't gonna have anything to look at while I had me cup of tea..
Cheers m8...
BTW...photo #12 on the Auto-Erotic post..
is that a trick of the light..or pistils..?
Down to 1 degree C this morning...eeeeiiiiiyyyyyy..
I went down to the beach wrapped up like Nanook of the North..brrrrr....
Poor little DC girl out in that.
Taste effect is strong perfumed Afghan..
(She has 4 of them in her...but colour is kush dom)
Best thing is she carries an Excellent muscle spasm relief pheno.
Work in progress.
Use 25 ml white wine vinegar to a gallon of water.
See if it makes a difference while you wait for a meter.
Take it down as Fast as you can.
It causes nute lock out...so they would benefit from it being knocked down fast.
Use the amended water at ALL waterings...
and it Probably won't be worth using your ferts until you do correct it..nute lock-out.
Out plants are about 75% water..
because that is what the dry out rate is when you harvest..
it stands to reason that the water we use is Probably More important than the food.
I've seen more people kill them with over-fert than under-fert.
How do you feel about Trashing my weekend....
you just knocked my high off faster than an over-ripe mango...
Nah....only joking....the mango was Worse.....
If it is Light induced..then we could probably make it happens in a lighted.indoor grow...
But..
If it is Cold induced...
then I'll have to keep them all to myself...
grow them every off season...
and torment the life out of all of you with them....
hmmmmmm.....sounds Good to me.....

Me too...I'd rather give 2 x 50% strength feed than 1 x 100%..
I've seen more people kill them with over-fert than under-fert.
Sigh.................................sob.........................Mossy that lime colour is from the cold. 100%

Second... hearing you talk about the kona gets me excited... I am def gonna have to get some purple jems to cross with my kon mists... they get that purple when it turns cold (I think)
Third... you can't keep it from us as we can emulate any environment we like! lol
Fourth... thats what it is... couldn't place it but you said it.. strong Afghan Prufume.. my KM's have a milder version of that... its one of the things I like most about them.... and their flavor is out of this world!
My vodka will be done Sun!
Ate more canna-choco... what a great buzz.... full meds and still totally functional!
Also... chec it... autocad 2010 is in... and it snap-integrates google 3d meshes!
click and snap... thats it!

Thankfully..by the time I got back..you had lined them up....
My tea wouldn't taste the same in the morning without your girls to look at.
The Full leaf colour comes with cold...I Think..
that is what we are trying to Prove out now.
Kush trait...and JEM carried the black leaf trait Before the introduction of the DC.
Ice cube night/lights off period watering. I was gonna try it myself.
That is the one..once tasted..never forgotten.
I would give it a go...
It is not so much Who your girl is by what it says on the seed packet...it is Who your girl is by Dominance...
and an afghan dom can pop up in a lot of crosses because it is one of the Strong ancestral girls.
IF you can pick matching traits up in both sides of your cross..there is a chance of a strengthening.
THAT is what I like about the canna vodka...
full med effect..
but you could still work/function through it...without anybody knowing.
I Think I have to do more Eating canna.
Eh...!.......
you will have to translate that bit for me...into technophobes language...
