    cheers!


    OK so I did a little research and from what others have said, treat an AF strain much like you would a regular one. The only difference is that AF strains flower earlier and for a shorter amount of time so start bloom nutes as soon as they show sex. I havent seen anyone that recommends feeding more often than every other watering.

    Most people were using FF nutes and said to stay away from Tiger. Also, keep in mind that the flower cycle is only about 5-7 weeks, so make sure that after about week 4 you are using only water no nutes.

    A few have recommended sulfur (bone meal) in slightly higher amounts than a regular strain, like 2tbsp per gallon, or mix some into the soil. That should only be done after they show sex though.

    As far as a "schedule" goes, it seems that very rarely can you define a set schedule for feeding plants. You want to just water when it looks like they need it, not when you think its time. And never use any more than the bottle calls for on any nute, most of the time start with about 1/2 the amount suggested and work your way up as with anything.


    So in short, any nutes high in nitrogen & maybe some superthrive every other watering until they flower. After flowering go straight to bloom nutes every other watering. I have seen so many plants turn out amazing with few to no nutes at all, or even cheapo walmart stuff. Its always better to give them less than more, if they need more they will let you know. Remember just give your plant what it wants, not necessarily what you think it needs.

    Hope that helps. If I find anymore good info Ill post away!

    hi,

    I haven't got any recent pics. but look at my albums.

    "The Dutchman told me tales of long-ago Lebanese cannabis cooperatives, He claimed that during gathering adventures in remote areas, beautiful girls, "selected because they had lush pubic hair," meandered through the cannabis fields on summer afternoons, grinding their pudenda against sticky resinous flowers.The girls were soon covered in resin, which were removed from their skin and hair using specially-shaped tools, and smoked immediately."-http://www.cannabisculture.com/articles/2789.html

    Here's some pics of my AF Lowryder2, to the right of the generic Sativa, planted the same day, back in March. They're bigger than what I thought, around maybe 50 cm or even larger. There's also a closeup of the first sex signs on it.

    Man thats just crazy! Definitely the largest AF Ive seen, and the fact that it is just now flowering is NUTS! Later tonight Ill take a pic of my AFs next to my "normal" strains that are gorwing in my full sized fridge. The AFs are only 3 days older than the others and they have been flowering for over 3 weeks now whereas my others are on week 2 of flowering and just sprouting their first hairs. Ill try to remember to take a pic when I get home.

    subscribed, i think the idea of autoflowering plants is crazy. i want some seeds very badly, it sucks theyre more expensive than normal seeds. as soon as i have a bit of extra cash im going to order some diesel ryder seeds.

    OK so I actually measure my Diesel Ryders and I couldn't stop laughing for 20minutes. I knew they were short but DAMN.....The shortest (Carmen) is 5.5" and her sister Regina is a mere 6.75" HAHA!!

    Here are some pictures of the two of them with my 2 bagseed girls. The Diesel Ryders are 3 days older :P



    And a bit of a top view


    Mmmmm cant wait to harvest. The AFs spent a month in 16oz dixie cups is the reason they're so small. But its pretty awesome that they will grow that small, & bud like crazy!

    Peace

    Can one keep the same temperature and humidity from start to finish with AF's? or is it the same as a normal grow? and as anyone used the AutoFem seed bank?

    i was trying to buy some seeds from attitude soon, and i was gonna go with joint doctors diesel ryder but theyre sold out now when they had them just a few days ago. are those just milk gallon containers u have them in? ive never grown an autoflowering plant. i really want the diesel ryder. and i wanted to let a male pollinate one of the females so i could get more seeds for free. is it true that they one take 1.5 months? and how long are you letting those plants go to make the seeds mature? ive always picked the males out as soon as i noticed them. and out of those 2 females u have, how many did u try growing and how many males did u have. thanks in advance.

    Depends on your point of view.

    Since you can't take clones, and roll basically forever, they are pricey. Unless you wanna basically sacrifice a single grow for seed production.
    And the ration of M vs F on 10 seeds can weigh in kinda heavy.
