Great for beginners, I would say. It stays under 50cm, less if trained. It only stinks up a week or 10 days from harvest. This needs to be managed if you don't live in the middle of nowhere. Similarly drying stink needs to be managed for 3-7 days after chop. Other than that, this home grow gig is easy-peasy!
Well this has been fun. Yield is a little cloudy, but bottom line dried flower is 40.2g (not completely dry, but close) plus the 10.9g that I have already smoked! I harvested the main cola 2 weeks ago. I began to hang the lower part of the plant, but then thought it would be better used in making cannabutter, so there's more yield. Gonna make me some biscuits!!
This plant shares a tent with a photoperiod which I need to switch to flowering (it is getting too big). Does anyone know what effect, if any, would there be on yield if I moved the light schedule to 12/12 at this late stage?
Automatics are able to finish during 12/12, even from seed to harvest, thats no problem. Some say the yield will be a bit lower but i don´t know if that is true. I don´t think so, if photoperiodic can give high yields under 12/12, then Automatics should also deliver.
Looking really good, man!
Have you topped the plant ?
I have three Automatics in my diary in week three now.
If you have the time please check it out and comment what you think about it :)
Nice weekend!
These lady's are looking great I've seen some dwarfs get really big this size seems manageable, I have 5 growing because It said 60cm max but I've seen people say theirs get to 100cm lol I hope I haven't bitten of more than I can chew for my first time 😫 good luck with the rest of your grow 👍
@Smok3y_J, I reckon she could go to 1m, but you would need to get her stretching for light source and no training. This one: the main cola got to 37cm, the rest around 33cm. Ripening up nicely! Thinking about a staged harvest like @cbdbusho did.
hey buddy !! If I can afford to give you an advice for next session….defoliate in this flower stage is not recommended….especially for autos plant….
what is done is done !!
it s difficult to be plenty affirmative where i am 😜 but the buds pics you show seems to me not mature yet…!! what do you think ??
@Budofpray, don't know mate. I notice her water consumption has gone down since haircut. I read somewhere that if I didn't expose the lower colas to light, they wouldn't produce much. She seems a healthy colour. Did I defoliate too early? Or too late?
Hi! Do you have a fan in your growroom? how often do you water your plant? normally it's enough to water aprox. every 3 days. let the top layer of your soil getting dry and mold shouldn't be a problem. put your finger in the soil. if the soil is still wet in aprox. 3 cm deep you can water again.
@howie03, I have 2 usb desktop fans in my 0.6 x 0.6m space. I water by weight in 2 l batches, when the weight of the pot "feels" dry, I water the next day.
