Transplant in the morning or at night?

Damn that’s just in 60 days?! Nice.
I got one mephisto forgotten cookies going. It is def ready to be topped but I don’t think I will and see the results first. If it was just few grams off for your situation.
How much was the total yield per plant tho?

So do you amend your soil or give nutes?
sorry for asking too much lol
Just curious of what every one else is doing.

No prob about asking...that's why AFN is here.
No input on forgotten cookies, although most mephisto strains I've grown have been larger than most other autos...like the double grape in the pic. It was topped yet still outgrew the tent.
As mentioned, I grow in 2-3 ltr pots and yeild averages 1-1.5 oz per ltr of medium. I kinda follow the "hefty autos in small places" idea. No amendments to the medium and no feeding for 3 weeks. Alternating feeds of Bio Bizz nutes and water- only is my habit and very conservative on feed...I never push the rope. Oh sure, I've pushed some over 15 yrs but learned lessons from it.
Update on the above ladies. The purple lemonade was chopped at 62 days. Earliest ever with previous Fastbuds....Moving outside in our 80 deg weather seems to have accelerated something as I watched trics cloud in a few days, then 30% amber quickly. The ghost toof and double grape are 2-3 weeks from harvest window.
Typically I harvest to fill certain needs of the day...one to wake and bake, lube the old joints, one to motivate and move, the one to knock my old ass out.

I see thanks for the answering. I’ve been trying to find which strains to do all that different type of feelings. What’s your favorite strain to do each task you mentioned? I don’t know much about strains. I usually just smoked em so i kinda go by the way they look. And for sure I will update ya with this journal

IMHO...most strains I've grown can be harvested at different times to fit in the "need of the day". I do lean toward strains that were bred for MS and its shitty symptoms and although some are better than others, all help. A timely, staggered harvest at various finish stages can be significant in different results. That being said, My all time best for my specific maladies has been anything Stone has been involved in creating. Rocbudinc and Mephisto has some strains that are bout as good.

I transplant every plant, auto and photo and have never paid any attention to time of day or plant schedule. Since all are under 24/0 lighting,it shouldn't make any difference. IMO, the usual problems are poor prep of receiving container and watering...pointed out by Michi-can...
Personally I use the double solo cups for germ and seedling prep and trans at 7-10 days. The inside solo cup is trimmed and cut to facilitate transplant and never disturbing the root ball. Moistening the receiving pot along with a little mycos is a good habit.
Most important part is proper and timely watering...and that applies to all stages.

Hello! Can you please explain a bit more about the double solo cup technique? I have seen some people plant the cups right into a raised bed.

I've always transplanted in the shade. Dont care if its actually light or dark out. Just no sun length on the exposed roots is really the only thing I'm concerned with.

Well that and being gentle.

Double solo cup......I trim the bottom half of the inside cup to form a 'net' that sits inside the outside cup....fill with medium......then just remove outside cup ...easy transplant.
