I just scrapped the entire 8 plant grow. The blue mazar and the flash babylon were doing awesome but without having the 5 skywalkers the grow wasnt worth finishing with only 3 good plants. The skywalkers just didnt cut it. They were half the size of the others that were germinated at the exact same time and the skywalkers didnt root as fast once in the flood table either.
That sux bro. Mine stayed small too. Definitely the smallest Mephisto strain I have ever grown and I have grown at least 6 strains of theirs. Might work great for a micro grow but they are really small if you have a room or a tent. Any idea what you are going to grow next?
And I was concerned about my small 3.5' headspace when I first began this auto grow lol. Since I had already been bushing out a Midnight Mass from Heavyweight for about 6-8 weeks I took cuts from it about 10 days ago when I had a feeling this auto run wasn't going to work out (glad I did). They are coming out of the bubble cloner and into the flood tables in the next day or 2. I haven't been able to find much concerning grows/journals/smoke reports on it other than Testiclees grew some out. He had a nice looking purple pheno he said was an enjoyable smoke that he didnt get tired of. This will work to fill the head stash until I can run other beans of what I've really been eager to get going (Plemon from Breeders Boutique, Honey Banana from Elemental, and Chocolate Skunk from 00 Seeds).
Hmm, This post goes a L-O-N-G way to backing up my long held contention that running auto's for longer periods 18, 20, 24 hrs. Is simply not worth it! Most auto's I've run have been in that 1.25 - 1.5 zip range in yield.....Your simply spending too much to get too little a return....
I think that it depends on the strain that you are growing. My AxT run was done in a Phototron, (remember those?), and I got 3.5 oz. off of a 1.5' plant. I also ran a Durga-Mata cross in a tent under exclusively HPS light with a light cycle of 18/6 throughout the entire grow and that plant turned out to be a beast. I think we got closer to 4 oz off of that plant. Within that same run, I had a AK47 cross and a Hiesenberg and they both had a estimated haul of 3 oz., and all of those were autos. So, my belief is that it is directly relative to the auto strain that you are growing. Just as a suggestion, take a look at this one: https://www.cannabis-seeds-store.co.uk/auto-flowering-seeds/dutch-passion/autoultimate-feminised-seeds/prod_6066.html. From what I have read, it's like the breeder dares you to try to mess up this plant when it grows; you can't! Some of the descriptions that I have read about this is that it has a ridiculous yield, grows under pretty much any and all conditions and really doesn't care if you feed it or not. I have never run one of these, just going off of what I have read.
I also agree with you i ran the AxT and pulled 4.2 oz of some of the most dank weed, its has everything to do with breeder and genetics. Also ran 18/6 the whole time.
Ok cool! I'll post something in the Seed Strain Section and see what happens. Awesome! Thanks! You may have just made my whole day!
today before chop.
same bud
Right on! That all 3 plants in the last pic? How were the terpines when you were trimming & manicuring?
I agree Roger. Some of the buds were solid and others looked solid until you got to looking at them. Still some pretty good buds came from these plants. Very Frosty and very sticky also.
Yep HydroRed that is all 3 plants trimmed up. As for the terpines it smells like pine and lemons but kind of has a slight hint of sweetness to them too. Had someone say they smelled like Rhubarb if thats how you spell it. Wondering how they will smell after they dry and have a good jar cure. I will let you guys know what they yielded after they are dry.
How many days did you take it at by chance? im on day 63 and still have a while...
60 days.
