So it’s about the end of week 10 and I’ve made the decision to cut two of the CP2.0 Autos! My last/youngest auto has had the biggest stretch I’ve ever had so far and I need more took in my tent. She’s about 7 weeks old and I still have one more Critical Purp left that’s about a week or two away. Update: the 72 hour dark phase was a bit scary as the plant didn’t seem to respond well. The trichomes were no more developed than I when I put her in the closet but I will say, she’s stickier than ever! Chopped up and just over 100g wet, so let’s hope for 20g dry. More to come. 3 left and two autos are running on completely different schedules. The untrained auto is only 7 weeks but 2-3x the size as the other. The budded auto is growing about as beautiful as I’ve ever seen. She’s swelling up and the smell is amazing. Really going to hold out until I harvest her as I feel like I continue to chop early..... identifying the “when” really seems like the hardest part of the grow but I’m still trying my best! More to come. As for the Haze, I’ve never Veg’d a plant for 10 week and I’ve been topping this one like crazy. She has to have about 20+ shoots! You’ll notice a few pics of the chopped auto. This was the one that bloomed at 3 weeks and has been stunted ever since. She did have a few fat colas that I can’t wait to try. As for the other one that you no longer see in the tent. I don’t have much room since I have one tent and I’ve never done the 72hour dark, so I talked my wife into letting me throw her in the closet for the weekend before chop! Now, this makes my entire house reek but worth it. Can’t wait for Sunday :) I’ll send another update Sunday....

When do you worry about seeds that’s don’t sprout? One popped in 2 days, it’s now day 7...

seeds have changed. they tend to have a thicker peel than the classic seeds. So its the best to trat them different to get them to germinate and sprout ot of the soil. i let my seeds soak too, then i go with the " papertowel method... letting them germinate where its dark and humid, next step for you ... automatics like it to go after germinating directly into their final pot, filled with fluffy prfertilised soil. If the tap root of an automatic plant hits the bottom she slows down and stop growing. So give them after they germinated their final pot. Automatics dont like transplanting too.........................and now back to your question..................if you dont see a sign of life after 7-10 days , maybe dig with alot of attention for your seeds.. sometimes they took the wrong way. If you go with the papertowel method you are planting seeds with aroot, and you have a vry high rate of germinated/ sprouted seeds. I give my planted seeds a " open dome" that means a plasticbottle with holes , to kep humidity high and help them. I water with aloewater

Why are my autos showing pistils at less than 4 weeks!?? Does this change how I was planning to train them or defoliate? Also - why isn’t there much spacing between the nodes? Two 600w LEDs about 36” above canopy....

@PurpsInMyCloset you just got a dud phenotype that decided to flower quickly . Unstabilised auto strains are a real mystery bet when you plant them some veg for 5-6 weeks and get big and some go straight to flower as soon as they can and end up miniature sized wastes of time. I wouldn't continue any training now its flowering just let her do its thing

What do you do when one of your Autos flowered super early on one side, and is now fish tailing like a mofo? You’ll see the pics where one aide looks really matured and I’m starting to see some amber trichomes.. But you’ll see on the other side, she looks great and is growing.

If I'm looking at the picture correctly, it looks like that side is getting better light or the par is higher on that side that is more mature. You could just turn the plant around so the less mature side can catch up ... Good Luck my friend

Does anyone dry out their cut plants in the grow tent with the carbon filter running? I worry it’s drying the plants out too quickly...

not too quick unless you are in a very dry area like me.I would turn off the filter and leave a window barely open to remove the odor.

Automatics are no more as tricky as they have been , but they still like it to have a lot of space and hate transplants.... oh i see ihave been writen nearly the same 1 month ago......

@OutForReal, it’s no biggie. Just a rookie trying out a new hobby so the advice is still very much appreciated.

@PurpsInMyCloset, Sorry I didn't wanted to offend you by saying that , I was generally speaking and not specificly targeted you. Like I said I'm doing it on every autos I am growing and even after more than one year doing it I'm still harming some of my plant. Sorry for the misanderstoud Edit : Ok I got it now with Google translate , I used the word casual instead of occasional.

@OutForReal, callin someone a casual on their own page after just starting kinda comes off dickish. I appreciate the advice everyone. Guess I learned the hard way this time around.

@PurpsInMyCloset, I think that " dakrperiod thing" is a Myth...... and bare of any facts......but now we made our own experiences... I know what works very well and that is flushing with icecubes. ( wheedtobeus420 does it) the desired effect is that she thinks help i die........ and the "sugarproduction" is running on hyperspeed. But i havent tried it by my own ( i forgot it^^)

@Mrs_Larimar, well, I just chopped her up and will admit, I don’t think I’ll be doing that again. Trichomes were no more developed than when I put her in the dark and as I was trimming her I could see some spots that looked like they were heading in a bad direction. Needless to say, she still spit out 121 grams wet so I’ll be happy if I can get 20-25 dry! Still have 3 more to go. Thanks for following! FYI. The auto I threw in the bigger pot is getting huge! Thx for advice.

@Mrs_Larimar, It's looking that way. She's blowing up at this point. It's crazy to think how sensitive these plants are.

3-5 weeks are the vegative stage 4-6 weeks is the stretch phase 6-10 weeks is typically the flower stage oh and autos start to show at 3 weeks depending on the strain

@blendmedmedman,thank you very much for the advice. First time with Autos and 3/4 are growing amazingly but one just flowered right out the gate. I was training it and some shoots still popped but think it’s best to let it roll now?

@ConnerSewer, thanks man! I was told it was actual. I’ve heard some comments that it wasn’t enough for flower but look at my other diary and you’ll see it did just fine. Almost done with first grow. I will say that I’m moving up to a 1000w LED simply because I’m going to be running 6-8 plants going forward. What can I say, I’m hooked!

I found with germination these seeds go faster in just a moist paper towel in a plastic bag partially open. I’ve had 100% success with that method and 1 fail in a glass of water... you also don’t have to wait for the seeds to sink. Just put them in the bag in a dark place. Come back three days later and they’re ready to plant...good luck on your grow
