Meet Regina "R.G.A" My First Auto

Took a bit of time to get her used to the 400 Watt HPS "I'll add 600W HPS later also" instead of the vegetative stage LED's she was used too. I Literally had to cut out a square of transparent polythene & Place it in between her & The HPS by taping it to 4 metal stakes '-' To be honest that's the only real problem I've had with these amazing genetics "apart from snow 1 minute & Sun the next" & She's pretty much taken everything that's been thrown her way brilliantly !!

As you can see she's a healthy green colour & Growing well '-' Been Snowing & -0c weather also but done well to keep her warm & Not suck all the moisture out of the air

RQS weren't wrong when they said she likes to stretch a little '-' I wouldn't mind but I've made some errors along the way & She's still perfect '-' Fingers crossed it stays that way !! & I have a jar full of frosty "piney/lemon" nugg's before I even know it & Guess what ?? I can't wait '-' But I will !! Until the final bulk & Full THC levels are reached '-' !! RQS do rock !!

I've done well at keeping the temperatures (Top 79f & Bottom 75f) within range but it's not been easy & TBH I've been up & Down like a blue arsed fly !! Round here it's been sunny one minute then snowing the next !! Then to top that off !! Gale force winds have arrived !! Blowing away any heat I can muster '~' So to get it right I've had to turn off the exhaust fan for a couple of days & Just had to run the light & Small oscillating fan by themselves. When the air is freezing cold on a night ?? I just put the little oil radiator in front of the tent & Make sure the fan blowing through the radiator to take the freezing cold edge off the air. TBF as a plant she's responded well to every little extra care I've issued & She's starting to bloom fast '-'

Pretty straight forward week as mid week started flush. All in all it has been a pretty rewarding experience for my first auto '-' But auto's to me ?? Can't get near the size of photo buds when vegged for 7/8 weeks then topped, tied & Mainlined to keep them manageable !! There were a few little mistakes by me on the way through this run though, So there was a little more potential !! But it wasn't anything too serious just dialling in to something new to me & TBF the genetics were bang on !! & Just as described by RQS !! I didn't even get one yellow leaf !! So I'd give the genetics a good 8.5/10 but only because the buds are dense but not the biggest I've ever grown. Overall great experience to see how God's & Man's creations function in reality & Auto's from what I've learned doing it have come on a long way. But until they do an autoflower that veg's for 7/8 week (Which defeats the purpose of an auto) I'll be sticking with 6 hours less electric bills & Huge photo period Kola's '-' Next ??
