Well, I'll just get this one started and really give the total run-down on Monday. Got my beans on the 1st from Herbies (took a week, great customer service and super stealth packaging for free...really clever idea, the way they did it). Only got time for one plant, and short time at that, so I tried sprouting the smallest La D first, since it is supposed to be 45 days from germ to harvest...and since I had such a headache getting myself a sprout, now I only have 41 days left. We are waiting on an offer to go through on our first house (to close on 3/24) while house-sitting for the folks, who will return April 1st. So, I need to find someplace to finish it, or chop it early :cry:... Two beans refused to germ (the reason why my FINISHED plant won't be cut AND dried by 4/1). Tried warm wet paper towels in a zip-lock at first, then got 3 month continuous feeding soil (miracle grow) and used a small plastic cup. That finally worked, and I'll explain it all on Monday, like I said. Here it FINALLY is...the last, and biggest (see here [ https://www.rollitup.org/auto-flowering-strains/508296-age-old-question-does-size.html ]) of the free seeds I got with my order, after 4 days of very impatient waiting, got a capped sprout to come on through...100_0825.jpg100_0815.jpg

Uh, it's going to be more like 70 days from seed to harvest, I'm not sure where you got your information and I hope you have holes in the bottom of that pot.

Well...I tried to find some solid info backing that 45 day harvest time up before the beans even got here. Guess I should have looked a little harder. The product description even says superfast... Herbie's site reads as follows...

Auto Flowering Delicious La Diva Autoflowering Feminised Seeds
A cross between Blue Berry and Il Diavolo, it features the blueish hues of our superfast strain while preserving the dominant autoflowering...blah, blah, blah...

Genotype: Blue Berry / Diavolo.
THC: 15%
Production indoor: 300 gr/m²
Harvest: Automatic ( 45 days ).

I am really not very happy right now. Why would they say 45 days?!?! That is one HELL of a double typo, man. Crap!!:o So you have grown this strain before, and know for a fact that it is a 70 day harvest? I did feel that it was an awful short period of time. One of their other strains also gives the same harvest time info, and all the other delicious strains on Herbies autoflower site gives "after seed" OR "after flower" info. I would have been able to deduce it was a typo IF they would have given a PER PLANT yield, instead of SQ. M (SOG) yield, but they did not do that. (Like super cali haze and kc45 are around the 70 day mark and say about 3+ OZ yield)...so is that what yield I can expect from this girl? If you are right, I got peeps whom I trust to finish it for me (with MI medical License, at that), but the logistics to get it to them are a bit complicated. Well if it HAS to be done, it can happen, I suppose.

p.s. Yes, there are holes, and it will be transplanted soon enough, as well.
 
Wolfie, they mean 45 days flowering. that would be 45 days after 3 to4 weeks veging. Autos r fast but not that fast. sorry to disappoint u.

Well, I Don't know what happened, because I had reported that I had burned the little sprout up, but after a month or so, those posts disappeared....HOWEVER...I'm posting a Four-Plant Outdoor grow TODAY, and I'll get the link up here, 'cause the LaDiva is doing the best of the four, as of now...Germmed on the 23 of March...

Sweet. Just got some Ultra Violet and more White express. I'm sure you'll be letting us know how your strains come out! I wanted to know how that White Moscow turns out! Stay Crunchy!
