So excited for this run. I finally got some Double Grape seeds. This time ive doubled up on the lights, im now running 2x 600w viperspectra LED's. Actual power draw is about 550 combined. Im really looking forward to seeing how theese autoflowers react under theese conditions.

All is looking good. One plants is quite visibly a few days older than the other because it sprouted first. I dont it will show at all in later stages. Ill start adding Cannazym next week and up the coco a/b. Peace Charlie

Started to do some lst on the girls. One is still to small to start for my liking so Ill give her a couple dies before I tie her down. Ill probably start increasing the nutes until I reach recommended amount.

They stated flowering last week... a bit sooner then what im used to however Ive decided to let them grow and see what happens. As you can see the one on the left hand side it struggling a little but i think she will be ok. As ive started a photoperiod strain ive reduced light cycle to a 18/6.

ThePotFactorystarted grow question 6 years ago
Has anyone had issue with autoflower flowering to early? This is the same as my other grows expect ive added a second light. Ive seen this in other diaries where what seems to be adding to LED light causing this as normally they go alot longer. Is that possible??

autos really depend on light not so much time adding light from "too little" to "enough" will surely accelerate it's metabolism and get it going... see one of my grows my auto was getting basicallyy 2.5 hours of light a day ... it took 25 weeks ! anyway, for what it's worth, you're 100% on time and completely inside the average for the preflowering that you're seeing. It may have been a trigger putting more light in, but I don't think it really affected the timing much ! hope this clears this up for you ! good intuition you had ! 🚀

Starting to see some nice bud sites and should be looking foward to some juicy colas. Ive started adding a little bit ok Pk13/14 now. I will slowly increase dosage. Theese plants are smaller than my previous runs.

Buds are bigger than I thought they would be. They're so dense and sticky. I'll probably give them one last PK13/14 boosted feed and then a good 5-10 day flush. Peace

The smoke is awsome. Really impresses with theese nugs, super dense! The smell and taste is really good too. I wish they had gotten alot bigger but they ended up so small because they flowered so early.

The buds are super dense and of really high grade. Its a shame they turned out so small. I'll never know why they did flower so early and dwarf xD. It could of been me or the genetics? None the less, awsome strain by Mephisto.

@CRiSPrGrow, Yeah I mean you can slow down the whole lifetime but you can't have an extended vigorous growth and delay flowering. 👋

Hello , did you notice a better secondaries stems growth since you use that "pony tail" method ?
ThePotFactory
ThePotFactorycommented6 years ago
@OutForReal, yes indeed I have. I have since cut a leaf or two off to allow extra light to those side branches.

Most autoflowers are sensitive. If you take to much leaves defoilate supercropp or anything like that the flowering starts later. they try to reproduce their leaves and then they will flower. If roots get hurt/ damaged, if they are sitting in to small pots they stop growing and start to flower earlier. But now back to your question. No i havent seen that they start to flower later if you add light. And your PLant started like she should start between wek 4 and 6.. or is it not about that plant ?
