I think you could do a perpetual grow with autos and have it planned so you can harvest a plant or plants every week but I think your going to have to have a pretty good number of plants to do that. The average harvest time for any autos I grew were between 70-85 days and that depends on how you like your trichs-clear,milky,amber. That is a pretty big room,i can see all kinds of possibilities but its all up to you and how many plants you want to deal with. How many plants are you allowed to have?

I haven't posted any here as of yet but looking at the screen i see an upload file button next to the post reply button. Once you have your pics saved to your device and you post a reply i'm pretty sure you hit the upload a file button,choose what pic you want to post and attach it to your post with the upload a file button. I suck at explaining the technical stuff pertaining to computers so maybe someone else can explain it better.

I figured it out. do you have much experience with defoliating techniques ? my canopy is getting pretty full and I really not sure about doing it to the top. I already wiped out most of the interior foliage that didn't have a chance as well as the monstrous a d that thinned them out quite a bit. the first picture are a couple of near dead clones of blue dream I was giving and I had 0 expectations for them I figured the would choke after I put them under the 2 1000s I'm running at 110%. UT they did this instead. they are funny lookin for sure but they were like David's among Goliaths.
20161127_220815.jpg 20161127_220800.jpg the second are LA confidential and all are in there first week of 12/12 cycle. and I'm thinking I need to defoliate the canopy to get more light to the Colas I left that showed the most potential to produce a decent bud. But I've read threads on both sides of the Isle and I did what I thought made sense then stopped when I got to the top. I'm worried about excess water from either spritzing or watering, not so much rh that's at 38-42% . After I got done pruning the bottoms it thinned them out a little but idk. what do you think?

Hi guys,
First ever post... Whey!!

These are my girls, on the left is amnesiac and on the right is pepper jack haze. Its my second grow and they're in week 4 flower. My first grow I screwed up getting only 19g of 4 autos... Couldn't master the hps so this time I'm using cfls, 2 x 300wt in sunmate reflectors. I think they stretched a fair bit but could be the strains? What do you think? Anything out the ord ?

Sorry buddy,cant help you with the defoliating techniques as I have no experience whatsoever with photo plants and I never do that to autos. they look pretty good to me tho!

Thanks, I decided to tie them back to open up to the inner colas. I was advised by another member to drill holes in the rims of my pots and tie them to them. seems to have solved the issue. Now I'm gonna have to decide if I want to have 8 monster plants or sacrifice quite a few colas so not to get overwhelmed f something goes wrong. I tied them up last night and they seemed to like that cause when I did it I counted the colas on them before and all of them looked to have 10-15 shoots, after I was done and was able to see how many were hidden. I'll go take a pick and post it in the morning but 4 of the six LA confidential have between 25-35 shoots the two runts have 20-25. I'm at the end of the first week of flowering so the next two weeks they should by all rights get 1&half again the size they are now. if they do I'll have to put my 3rd 1000wat hps and it will be an adventure just to water them. I think it's time to check our the forums and find an old pro to find out if there is something that I can do.

Looking pretty good to me, nice and healthy. Back of the hand rule for the lights, if it burns the back of your hand it will burn the plants if not your golden, get those lights as close as you can to get the most energy to the girls.

Nice i too am trying it out for the first timer, though I'm going for broke and may still fuck it up. I'm running two 1000wat hps using beginner medium happy frog and chose to try out the fox farm nutes. my room is pretty big I guess, it's 7'×14'×8' with a custom exhaust and intake that cools the heat due to open hoods (was not a good choice) but makes steady rh levels a pain. I try to keep it at 50-60% but like clockwork soon as the exhaust kicks in it can get down to 38% in a hurry I've seen it as low as 20%before it finally shuts off. I have a humidifier now that acually will keep up a little better but it's ment for a 2500sq foot home in that tiny room. so after this one I'm switching techniques to try either leds or maybe ceramic but what ever it is I'm going with a sea of green method. so the second time won't be anything like this one. I hope it works. check em out they are starting second week of flowering should be starting to stretch. shit wrong pic this was Saturday nd of the first week

It looks very healthy to me good work, when you up pot you will want to plant it up to the bottom of you first leaves but not so full the leaves are in the dirt, that way you reduce the amount of stretch and start growing a good strong stalk. Give it a light baby food mix of nutrient after the up pot and it will reduce stress on the plant.

Hey Guys, i got a smasl setup, 4 pants, my plants are about 3 weeks old, it looks like they are having signs of nutrient defficiency, like nitrogen, one plant has the lower leaf tips pointing downword, and my lower leaves are very dark green, some of the leaves cupping upwords slightly but with the tips just becoming brown or burnt. Is this a case of a root issue, over watering or wrong ph, any help is appreciated dont want my little girls to die.

When you say brown or burnt is it just the tips or the whole leaf? I had a similar issue, mine happened to be nitro toxicity. I was blitzed stoned and for got which one I started with wholy makrel from BUSH DOCTOR and that made the one I hit with it twice had browning of the leaf not really yellow, which is indicative of Nute burn. and they too started to claw and cup as well. But I also am a first timer and I have alot of friends that told me different thing it could be.
I'll tell ya what I chose to do, I asked Google to find how do I diagnose Marijuana leafs that are brownish in color. Or somthing along those lines. they will have pics that show all kinds of examples and what it is and how to fix it. there were a few that looked like it could be the same, yet so did 4 or 5 others! So I figured that if it was a Nute overload or lack thereof either way you got to fix it. so I let them get so fucking dry they looked pretty thirsty. then I watered them with good water with ph at 6.1 then ran the water to em not insanely but a bit more than usual for that on I'm particular about almost obsessive over this grow but glad I was patient. check my girls out they are in day 10 of flowering and I'd say it worked. the one in the back on right us the one. she is small cause she kinda stalled for a min. But she's giving it hell now.

Well I am new just joined referred from another site and a guy who is trying to help me learn. He referred me to here. First you have to tell me how to post on here so I can find out all I need to know. I am Marajak I am going to be a renegade as I live in terrible Neurological pain and can not take it anymore. I am a Behavioral RN but I have been through the medical system and all they did was make me worse. Because of medications I am now completely DEAF. I have lost my life, my career and by God I am going to get them back and either get rid of my pain with the kind of seeds I need to get more cbd and very little THC since I know the cbd works on Neurological disorders. I am already too sleepy because my body wants to shut down to stop the pain. I have tried everything and have read up on Charlotte's Web and know it works on Neurological but maybe not mine. I know nothing about finding seeds, or how to grow it. I want to make oil or eat it not smoke it. So I need all the help I can get. If necessary I can make a trip to Colorado and try different ones till I find the one that works on my pain and then grow my own. I am also willing to move to a state that has it but I need to work fast because I can't take the pain much longer. I just exist and I can't stand that. I had to shut down my on line business and get very little done because of pain.
So please if anyone knows what works best on Neurological pain please talk to me and tell me what to get and where to get it. I thank you in advance hoping alot of you are experts and can help me. I belong to several Cannabis sites and am reading but need specific help.
