This is start of 4th grow first time using auto flower wanted to see how much faster it goes and so far I am amazed. So i picked the palest 1 of 5 seeds to start I put the seed in water 8-9 hours then under paper towel between 2 plastic lids and then on top of the grow tent for warmth. Image 1 is the seed after 3 hours in paper towel picture 2 is 4 hours later. So total 16 hours this seed went from water to a sprout and I am simply amazed never seen a seed take off that fast. I placed in a small pot with damp soil and covered with plastic wrap and poked a few holes to hold some humidity. Literally 6 hours later this thing already broke the surface a few cm and was trying to lose the seed shell so I peeled it off carefully. Seriously though I heard auto flowering seeds were fast but this is shocking I cannot wait to see how the rest of it goes. Just giving ph 6.5 water and going to mist it once or twice a day, keeping her a fair distance from the light right now don’t want to push her to hard she will be in the same tent with Seedsman original skunk #1 monster cropped grow. W1D2: shortly after the light turned on she already broke soil and showing some green. Gave a light misting keeping the moist plastic wron on for another day or so. W1D3: gave her a light mist again decided to remove the plastic she already looks stable

Grow Questions

Lionssharestarted grow question 5 years ago
This is my first auto and considering there is recommended 2 weeks left is she in a good position for a decent yield? I’ve heard 1-2 oz is normal for an auto but I can’t even dream of these buds getting that big over the next few weeks. Should I have stayed at 18/6 to perform btr

How long your plant grows for will be different than the breeders recommendation. Seedsman says 49-63 days, but it looks like you have quite a bit longer to go. Different phenotypes, genetics, and your grow system can all effect breeders harvest times. I always plan to add 1-2 weeks to that number. There is no darkening of pistils, they are still shooting strait up and the calyx's haven't swollen up either. I say you have more like 4 weeks rather than 2. Buds put on a good amount of weight during the last 2 weeks. Don't rush the harvest and keep her healthy through the rest of the grow.👊

Hi, nice looking lady you have. From my experience which is limited the lady even an auto will let you know when its time by going amber and not shooting out more white hairs.Then if you have a magnifying glass look at the trichomes for turning too. I use a magnifying app on my iPhone free one which also allows you to take photos you can post on here for peeps to give advice. All the best and hope you have a big yield.👍 Kitkat

@Lionsshare, Its the good thing about this community here everyone helps with advice and ideas. I am yet to see or receive any negative posts. It also made me grow different strains I would have never ever given a thought too. Ive found autos to be really easy to grow with hardly any work needed but yields of about 1.5 - 2 oz but my photos tend to need a bit more care but give yields in excess of 4oz. I think you might be looking at three weeks but the lady might surprise you and be ready in two, that's the fun of this hobby😂👍

@kitkat332986,hey thanks I was looking for attachments for my phone an app never crossed my mind so I will be going the app route lol she still noticeably growing by the day and no hairs have changed as yet thankfully as much as I want to try it I want those buds to phatten up a fair bit more. Hopefully she has another 2 weeks.

@Mr_Weeds_Autos, thank you I was worried about her size she is very very small for showing pre flower already. Over last 2-3 days though the undergrowth has amazed me. Unfortunately I need to reduce light this week due to another photo period plant needing 12/12 however I think she still may turn out half decent provided she stretches a little before full bud mode.

Your plant looks and I am digging the way you trained her. Lots of light to all those bud sites. I would be careful about defoliating auto's as well, could be a reason why your buds are still smaller. Still have a good amount of time to go though. Send me a message if you have any more questions. Good luck and happy growing! 💪

@@motaman311, thank you for advice and comments. She starting to beef up a little over last couple days I’m starting to see potential in a decent yield. I have tried not to defoliate to much as I heard to just leave autos as is after your advice I decided not to take anymore, I have only taken a few over past few weeks that made to maximum size and were being bent out of shape in the walls but she has great light penetration so I won’t touch her anymore. One of my lower buds at the back of the plant that’s pushed into the very corner in the tent still gets decent enough light and is producing a nice tight little bud. So hands off for me lol cannot wait till the weeks she starts putting some weight on these buds.

Looking good man. Still plenty more weeks by the look of it. Don’t pay attention to recommended growing times.

Added some photos of trimmed bud this stuff is sexy has a nice skunky kush smell After a week of curing the taste and buzz is amazing. I think the bud looks better in person than in the pics but they are still some dense frosty stinky buds. I’m glad I started two more seeds of this stuff

Thanks guys I’m used to photo period my last one got these new mars hydro 600w lights just for flowering and I got 2 grams shy of 3oz dry and it was way smaller than my skunk no1 in my other thread. Yea I. Was thinking recommended 7-8 weeks is insane no way these little 2g buds gonna grow that big in 2 weeks hahaha
