7 days after putting the dry seed directly into soil - so technically, day 1.
Looking good so far. Not an easy strain to grow.

My hydrosoil mix of 50-60% sifted organic bag soil, 20-30% Coco and the remainder is vermiculite and perlite. I pre flush the soil with a root stim, molasses, a probiotic formula (Gogo Juice) and CalMag. Under 900w full spec LEDs, CalMag is essential from early on. I could get more yield if I did coco or hydro, but doing it this way gives the plants more autonomy and they are less prone to nute lock or pests. It also improves the smell and effect.

When growing autos indoors in soil, what is the best time to top them to prevent them growing too tall for your tent?

Hello ! Just like athos told you the best moment is after the 4th node (3rd or less for main-lining) . The supercroping is a better technique as the plant can recover faster from the stress than with a simple toping that will slow her down a bit & it will allow you to controle height better ! Hope it will help you 😁👍

After the 4th node, removing the 5th (or most of it, if you are FIMing). In my last diary I FIMed an auto. In your case, I would use supercroping if you are having height problems

Hi @JasbadSirron! I usually top autos at the 3rd node, once the 4th node has fully developed. This makes me remove a part of the plant, but recovering is faster when the lower parts has true leaves / has already developed new growth. Keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

@bobo420, nice. Sounds like a good little set up. I wish I could use my outdoor space - I’d be able to grow 25 ft tall monsters Mendo Dope style.

@JasbadSirron, I've got the outdoor now, to hot for me inside but have a few autos that will join in on the outdoor, will open diaries in a day or two. I got a unitfarm LED 200w running in the tent until the autos get a few nodes and can be transferred outside

@bobo420, cheers Bro.
At the moment, the light is at full spectrum, so any closer would burn.
However, you are correct for when I had it in just veg. My lights are Viparspectra 900w Reflector Series. They can be hard to manage as they are so powerful, but once you figure out how to use them properly (and the magic CalMag double dose trick), they make your plants grow so fast and strong. Worth the $300 USD per unit.
What are you running ATM?

@bobo420, cheers mate. I’m keen to see how this strain goes as the last one turned out to have crazy genetics that didn’t produce a good yield.

A new set of leaves every 24 hour cycle now. She’s growing like bamboo on a full moon.

Anyone else had issues with the Diesel Auto from Royal Queen Seeds? Every time I have seeds from them (via Seedsman), they are tiny little weak things - and they are packed in these ridiculous pop packs which are always busted by the time they get to me. Never had so many seeds fail. Is it Royal Queen or is it Seedsman? Or am I just unlucky with the Diesel Autos?
