I used a pinch of kelp extract when doing a 12 h soak before planting in soil and that was a mistake. Too much growth hormone (gibberelin) caused the germinated plants to stretch like crazy. Managed to stabilize them without losing too many. Had raised soil level in cups as far as I could, and I transplanted 8 into final 5 gallon containers even though it’s a bit early for that. Rather nerve wracking but I think they’re good now. Skip the kelp extract when soaking good seeds.
Days are nice enough here now but overnight temps are still too low to leave them out.
@Northern_Ent,I love to smoke the herb that I grow😛,
but it's the growing part that is highly addictive😵 as I've come to find out.
Just can't wait to put some more beans in the soil😏, espescially with Autos
It's always another EXPERIMENT😜.
Grow BIG!!!
@pecorino, I usually top my autos as this helps to prolong the veg phase. Mine usually veg for 6-7 weeks and this is mostly due to the cool nights that slow their metabolism.
@Northern_Ent,for me dutch passion and some strain from royalqueen yielded good, like autohulkberry and autoultimate, the problem for fastbud in my experience was that the vegetative stage was too short for outdoor
@pecorino, I pretty much have to grow autos this far north and I’ve had good success with strains from FB, Auto Seeds, original Sensible, and Crop King.
The most promising this year are the Early Version photoperiods from Delicious seeds.
Anyway, the point is not all autos are tough enough for outdoor but most of them are.
Supposed to be 35c today plus humidity, pushing 40, YUCK!!!
good thing for central air, I keep my house at 72f(20c)approx.
the tents in the basement never exceed 24c👍, so I'm thinking
the Lambs Breath will stay inside for awhile longer, until this heat dissapates
a little, hope all is well and stay cool😎..
Later!!
