No updates for the last week as I was out of town. Plants were watered but I’ll have to inspect further tomorrow. 49 g wet weight side cola from last week became 10 g after eight days of drying. Day 104 apples Gaia Green soluble seaweed extract as a foliar spray and pHed water. Left to attend to Pineapple Chunk plant and upon returning 4 hours later the GSC and NL plants had both taken on bright ‘fall colours’. Cool last night at about 7 C. Harvested another cola that seemed dried out for some reason ( likely just watering problems but I’m still worried about mould). Day 106 harvested two large colas and some side branches- total 295 g trimmed wet. I did this because I’m thinking it is something like powdery mildew in the stems. Also seen in my Northern Lights plant and the buds dry out on the stems where this happens. So, chop some parts a few days earlier than planned in an attempt to salvage as much as I can.

Grow Questions
Northern_Ent
Northern_Entstarted grow question 5 years ago
Should I harvest this plant in six days, or wait two more weeks? I’m away next week and I think I harvested my Polar Express a bit too early and don’t want to do that again. Now at Day 90. Outdoor grow with cool nights means it takes longer than Fast Buds says until harvest.

I would push it as long as you can to ripen her up. My fastbuds gorilla vegged about the same length as yours and it was ready at 14 weeks. As long as it gets over 70 during the day she will make good progress. Below 60 and growth slows down a lot.

Started seeds on May 11 (soaked in distilled water overnight and planted in soil in peat pots) and they were poking up by May 15. Had dates wrong before I think, but today would be day 11.

Oh wow I though topping and stuff is a nono for autos?! When is it recommended sir? Awesome report! I'm growing the same genetics this outdoor season :)

@rdlans, yeah, you know, in the zone…

@Northern_Ent, Thanks for the elaborate info bro! I found this 'low stress' variant of topping that I will have a go with, less invasive than straight cutting. See video, might be interesting. www.youtube.com/watch

@rdlans, thanks. Modern autos can get big (this was definitely a good one) but you don’t want to stress them. Start in final container if you can or use a peat pot…you don’t want the roots at all constricted. Top while it’s still vegging and definitely not once it’s started flowering. Cool overnight temps can prolong veg stage which is good, but too cool will stunt their growth. If nearing frost definitely bring inside or cover. Plant will look fine after but growth will be stunted after a brief overnight frost while vegging. Fall frosts usually aren’t a problem as the plants are bigger. Plants also take longer outdoors, or least here they do. Expect about 100 days for most autos - plus or minus a couple weeks. If in a hotter climate expect shorter veg and flowering times, and likely smaller plants. Good luck. Best hobby in the world.

What's the slow cooker and coconut oil for mate?
Northern_Ent
Northern_Entcommenteda year ago
@Drgreen13, sorry man, I thought I answered this ages ago. Was trying using coconut oil for extraction because that is allowed under the rules here in Canada for commercial products. So just trying it and don’t recommend. Freezer tinctures made using Everclear are very good, hash is a bit better. Cheers.

Looking good 👍 wait as long as you can too harvest, has the same slow development cause the Low temperatures

@Northern_Ent, yes they get bigger 😁 my Tangie matic was about 147 cm and the Stardawg the same, yes they are perfect for it! Have tried photoperiod dependent but with no good result cause the short summers
Northern_Ent
Northern_Entcommented5 years ago
@SwedenX, thanks. Will wait at least another week now. We’ll see how it looks when I get back from my trip. These modern autoflowers are great for our climate and latitude. The cool nights and long sunlight hours are key, but all four of my plants are at least 50% bigger than advertised 🤠.

@MarryJuan, thanks. Last year wasn’t great because of soil and water problems, but it should be sorted out for this year. Cheers.
