This will be my first go at the autopot system 😁.. Ive started the babies in a 1liter pot in some pottingmix from the local store. My plan is to get them well rooted and drop them into the autopots which will be clayballs 2inch thick then a 50/50 mix of perlite and vermiculte. Neuts ill be sticking with the professors line..Wish me luck haha
Not much to note really, what i will say is dwc is so much faster by this stage these girls would be triple this size. Other than that cant complain healthy happy young plants..
Again pritty slow week, the lsd has its 3rd set of true leaves nearly all the way through. Trainwreck are out of the soil and starting to put in some growth.
So we got a bit more growth this week. Had a quick look yesterday and roots coming out the bottom leaves started to droop so time to repot.. Gave the roots a good dress with great white and some water now wait until i can switch on the autopots and chill.
Moved the lsd from 4000k lights to tent with 3000k lights. These girls are 7 days since transplant i think they would be right to switch on the autopots but ill wait for the reccomended 10 - 14 days. Cant complain so far they have really started to grow since they got over the shock of transplant.
This week was eventful, so i flicked on the system on wednesday. The girls seem to be really enjoying this system ive gone full strength neuts and these lsd dont really seem to stressed by it. Growth is speeding up might start traing in a fee days prep them for scrog.
Thanks for having a look guys.
Cant say enuff about these autopots,ive check ph 3 times this week for peace of mind and it hasnt moved,normally in hydro its twice a day. Such an easy system to use buuut im going to need a bigger res these ladies are going through 45ltrs a week and flowering is gonna be nuts.
Thanks for having a look guys.
Its been a good week had some good lateral growth on the two bigger plants. One of the two smaller ones is slowly catching up, the other one im not sure about give it another week and see how it progresses.
Another good week this week got some nice sideways growth no issues whatsoever and the girls are coming through the scrog now. Did a big de leaf on them bounced back real well. This is their last day of 18/6 ill be putting them into 12/12 tonight.
Good week ladies starting to come through the netting,had to tuck a few leaves here and there. Starting to fill out the 4x4 scrog and theyre just starting to stretch think it might end up just being a support ne at ghis rate..
10 days in flower everythings looking good nice growth and slowly filling up the 4x4 scrog. Had no issues except trying to tuck the far side of the tent is becoming a pain in the ass but good problem to have i supose.
Budlets are getting some size to them now. Smells nice but very strong for this early in flower. Bit sad that only two of these girls could really fill out, but i cloned the shit out of her so at least i can get another run in and fill it right out if the herb nice 😎
Day 29 flower everythings on track no issues these girls are greedy though. Ive feed them pritty heavy but they seem to love it. Theres 3 diffrent phenos the big one i cloned so ill run it again.Mnsl says they are 12 - 14 week flower cycle if thats right holy shit these are gonna have some massive buds!
Start of week 5, this l.s.d is really starting to shine now litterally shine. Shes covered in trichs stinks to high heaven,theyre starting to stack up real nice now no real density yet but early days. They are feeding at a ridulous rate though going through roughly 45ltrs every 5 - 6 days now at 1100ppm still havent found their limit yet.
As of 24th october these lsd are 5 weeks 3 days into flower. I have not had a single issue with these plants since i introduced the green planet procal. System wise autopots are killing it so easy to use my only issue is res is too small these plants drink and eat so much its not funny. Crop wise enviroments on point temps good crops looking mean should be a good harvest. Thanks for checking it out 🤙.
Sooo i found about 7 seeds on one of the girls lucky she was at the front and was easy to get to so i pulled her maybe 2 weeks early. Had a quick look through and couldnt see anymore seeds or pods so fingers crossed i got it. Found the culprit which was light leak in their dark cycle. Other than that things are progressing well with the remaining three plants.
I didnt weigh the plant i pulled but id say she was aroung the 5-6 oz mark and very sticky.
After i got some info in it turned out she was a 8-9 week strain. Had some hermie issues which sucked ass and had to pull 6 weeks 6 days to stop the spread of seeds 😪. When all said and done though i enjoyed growing this strain and took a few clones from 2 of the 4 phenos i liked before they turned so ill give it another run. Ended up over a pound with the qbs and autopots. Autopots are so easy to use and the plants stay alot healthier with this system, never had to change ph once cant recvomend enough.
Thanks for having a look and commenting guys appreciate all the feed back ✊✊
Really interested to see how you get on. I spent £70 on an autopot system but ended up top watering. The pots were constantly flooded at the bottom. I was worried they would be too wet and cause problems.
It was ment to let out a little water then once its dry release more.
Also I have 3 strains on the go....2 love the nutrients and 1 doesn't so I had to make up separate feeds anyway.
Next grow I'm going to try again with a single strain.
Best of luck👍
@Kiwigrower6, I'm just on a coco/ perlite mix will put some clay pebbles in for next time. I will be away for 2 and a half weeks through the next grow so need it to work then👍
They look like they are loving life mate👍 that's gona be some harvest!
I'm on hols just now and had to leave mine with a converted 80ltr bin, couldn't get my arm down to bottom of the 100ltr to fit the tap! So I've said a prayer to the ganga gods n hope I don't return to a coco desert!😀
@Kiwigrower6,
Fingers crossed! I'm home in 3 days and hopefully a nice surprise awaits! Managed to get some nice weed n Moroccan black on hols so all good!
Wow ... Amazing job grew this same strain for my first diary on here wish it went as well as yours did but I think I was a bit impatient when it came to letting her finish up.
will be following this one.. LSD being one of my fav strains (i need to get some seeds) and seeing how the autopots plan out! when i upsize my tent i am thinking autopot. good luck!!
Mate they look amazing! That is going to be some harvest, and many man hours of trimming 😀
Mine were fine when I got back from hols. 80ltr res was bone dry as were plants but not too bad! Cant believe the size of them with the autopots. I opened the tent to a mass of green!
@Kiwigrower6,
3 skittles og and 1 purple punch from Barneys!
Completely different grow with the autopots and I also added air domes to this grow!
Will get a dairy sorted n give you a look!
I was wondering how your res would hold up with this sort of wicked growth, with the pro cal.. would u recommend that over pro nutes go-green? - Love how healthy these look and the growth last few weeks.. I mite need to look at autopot... its that or i am looking at a 3 pot DWC/Drip Hybrid system (2 plants / 1 res). Ordering a LM301H 3500K + R-SPEC 240w light this weekend . got some auto Colorado Cookies to go under it... hoping my next grow is a cracker.. if i can get my plants looking as happy as yours i will be content in life.. haha have a good one!
@Kiwigrower6,yeh i got mine for same price including del.. so fairly happy (and local seller) been looking at datasheet on LM301H and so keen to see the results.. now i just have to find the right media/system type for me... will prob go clay/hydro again but use the pots this time (my system came with 4 pots but i with with 1 tray + multi plants.. a mistake.. pots will give more room for roots.. :) or if i can afford b4 i am ready i will go a drip/DWC .. as i seem to have too much trouble with coco.. keen to try again one day as i would like to go organic biobizz nutes, but had lots of gnat issues when i had coco.. didnt help it was cold and coco was little too wet.. etc .. haha
@@PhatMonkeyGrow,hey man yea weekend was good hope yours was too 👌. I use professors 70/30 coco perlite mix and 2 inches of clay balls at the bottom of my buckets to stop over watering. I got my lights off ali for $240 deliverd just under half of what hlg go for. To be honest i wouldnt think they would frek out,if they do might work out for the better more trichs or fatten up a bit.
@Kiwigrower6, Can i ask what Media mix your using in your autopots? ordered my LM301H 3500k +R 240W yesterday.. got it for a very good $ also (cheaper can i can find a kit on ali) - and local shipping.. recon my plants will freak too much if i put new light on them for last 2 weeks? anyways hope ya having a good weekend. 😀
Wow I didn't know light leak would affect autos in this way, what with some folks doing a 24hr cycle.
Good job u noticed, nothing worse than sitting picking out shitty seeds!
@Cheezy_G,theyre feminized but the only title they had was autos bro.. The seeds went through the whole crop aswell 😪. Ill let them go another week should be 50days and pull them if i get many more seeds. Gutted as bro
Wow! 45ltrs a week that's nuts! I'm going to have to rethink as I've a 47ltr tank and a 2 week holiday!
Looking happy and dont seem stressed by switching over👍
@Cheezy_G,yea dude very close to it. I just got a 100ltr bin from the hardware store and converted that into a res. No stress at all for them or me saves so much time ghis system.
