I cannot believe how much growth this week!!! I think she has almost doubled in size!! For the first time I've had to higher the light fixture. It is now almost as high as I can put it. I'm kinda regretting not FIMing her now...... I hope she does not grow much more in height!
@wygorilla, Thats great!! I would seriously consider FIMing her to try and keep the height down! She is the tallest plant I've ever grown. If I grow it again I will for sure do it.
Also be prepared for a long wait. She is flowering very slowly for me.
@JerMeds, I am trying to get some Sativas in my life next time round so will look at the other seeds Doc has.
My meda is coco with a little bit of perlite in a 40 litre airpot.
Sorry to hear it dude... that said, it takes a grower with a stash to be able to give away a another stash lol. Chin up homie! A good yield regardless. 👍👊👍
@TheBudWhisperer, Thanks dude. I hadn't thought of it like that...... If it was my only strain I had in 'stock' then I guess I would be keeping it. It would be better than nothing 😂
BUT, had these colas been dense and a few more trichomes honestly it would have been an easy 8oz plant. I threw two colas away! One had wind burn, one had too many hairs 😂
The main thing is I learned something 😉 and will keep that in my memory bank for use in the future.
All the best buddy!! 👌👍
If you want some informed support for your hypothesis then here it is dude. When it comes to autos and their short life cycle, I’d go 20/4 vs. Anything else. I’ve tried it at 18/6 and results are good. 12/12 and the results were somewhat less. With autos I’ve found the more light the better for sure. Either way best of luck with the harvest! 👍👊👍
@Dunk_Junk, yeah dude, couldn’t agree more. Guess the only concern is prolonged light exposure and burning from that. Dealt with that a bit on an 18/6 cycle but it coulda also been nute burn. This is why I like growing photos more these days. Longer to harvest but generally easier on the plants. Good luck with the chop - watching for updates. 👍👊
@TheBudWhisperer, Thank you dude. I have grown autos for quite a long time now with the lights on 24h straight from seed. I've not had a problem before, grown a few different breeders' plants. This is the only one that's had problems with that light regime. I think doing autos 20/4 is a bit of an insurance policy against funny stuff happening 😋.
I am in agreement that the more light you give them the better the plant which led me to 24h, BUT I didn't factor in weak genetics......
Anyhow, as long as we're all still learning and sharing that knowledge for other people to benefit from it's all good.
👌👊
