I have no experience with autos but when I'm snooping around mephisto is getting the highest praise I'm growing in e&f smart pots using tupur these clones were taken July 31st tupur is some sort of coco blend dwc & high temps have really been hard on me this feeds the same nutes but root problems are nonexistent View attachment 4006279
Totally worth checking them out! Very nice! Yeah the danm heat is a killer man

Well it's a good thing I'm pretty happy with my lights at the mo, looks like I'll have to brush up my understanding before I add any more :mrgreen:

At the mo I'm more worried about odour control.
The Skylar White seems to be living out the skunkishness in her lineage and my place strinks like a cannaforest despite the cheapside DIY filtering I've been dabbling with..
My logic on air exchange seems to be off. I was looking to keep it to the necessary minimum as to not create negative pressure in the closet. My suspicion being that negative air pressure makes the plants stink more. While that may be, air exchange isn't going to win against genetics ;)

So after wasting 50 euro on a regular inline fan (w/ just 90m³/hr), activated carbon (which I had to remove again after a day, the airflow got reduced to just about zero), and a Carbon filter for extractor hoods (totally ineffective!), I'm sheepishly opting for a nice 160m³/hr S&P silent fan and a proper carbon filter to match :rolleyes:
I had the impulse to just put up my old closet and stick them in there for the 3 weeks they still have to go, but knowing myself, if I do that I'll never build the new room, and I really need that space for my planned return to photoperiods - and moving on to regulars too...

So here they are, at day 54, 14 days after the last update, with a good 3 weeks to go.
Both showing nute problems on their bottom leaves, the PE with calmag deficiency signs and starting to transfer nitrogen upwards.
I have to look at slow release nutes in my soil mixes more seriously I think!

Note that tallest branch in the middle - it's actually the lowermost one of the plant, which seems decided to get into a growing race with the deadnettle in there (blooming in pink), way after the other parts of the plant were already focusing on flower.
It's really funny to see how that one branch is trying to catch up with the others now. May have to leave it standing, like a vigorous middle finger, for a few more days after the rest gets harvested :bigjoint: we'll see!

And Ms. Stinky, the Skylar White
Clearly pulling nitrogen out of her bottom leaves, may be partly genetic self-defoliation, but yeah.
She's only in 10L too, on purpose.
For full development she'd need twice that, but I was scared of that given the tiny space.

Looks like she could be a heavy yielder when grown out properly, love how she's developing her colas!
(oh and sorry for the crappy pic quality, my cellphone cam all of a sudden can't handle the light anymore it seems and always makes these stripey pix now :? so no, I don't have shades hanging across my lights lol)

(same main cola as the closeup in the last update)

Cheers! :bigjoint:
Ohh you're gunna be happy with Skylar!! If Ripley's wasn't pushing her away in my tent she def would have been a very good yeilder, she had very fat cola's. And just you wait until you see the frost she puts on, it's literally insane!

Nice, love that jungle you got there. I run 3x3's and thought yours seemed a bit bigger. What do you yeild on average from a full tent? 600w?
Thanks. I average around 15 oz from 4 in that tent, last few runs have been mixed strains, but going to do 4 chocolate kush next run, just took the cuttings today as this run has 3 to 4 weeks left. I use a 315 cmh dual spectrum. I have a journal going ill tag you in it shows how i created my jungle.

Man Anon you grew those nice colas under 250HPS. That's crazy!!!

Those Autos really put out I got about 12 Quart jars of bud. With Auto's and 400W HPS on My first grow. They are really nice to grow.
My numbers are down right now as I learn how to grow photo period and had that disappointing die off last time around.But...
It's all good. I'll just keep trying. And now I have the Clones.8-).

I would love to see what your doing THC if you don't mind. Are you in soil or buckets?

Ohyes, I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to grow her again under more dignified conditions!
She's frosting up nicely, and, wowee smells of bubblegum! :bigjoint:

I did get the impression though she has less tertiary branch growth than the sour stomper, but yes, she looks like she'd even grow fat colas for me - what you've got going there, beercan thick, is just way sick :P

hey stickman just popped in to see if you've surfaced yet & to update on my grows I think I'm done with dwc this coco/tupur is just much more simple I've returned to single plant grows in both tents one tent is drain to waste ( just a drip pan with a 12 liter cloth pot sitting in it) I dump 1 liter of nutrient on it daily the other has the same pot but sits in a tub & has a reservoir it floods once a day it can go about 5 days without attention as the pump is on a timer I was kind of forced to go back to this method as high nutrient temperatures & root rot was costing me my grows IMG_2811.JPGIMG_2812.JPG

Looking sweet Herk, i've been thinking about doing a coco hempy for a while. I've just started a new seedling in DWC though. Watch this space lol

Glad to see you back in the saddle I really miss your thread & my little window into how things work over in your part of the world over here summer is on its way out & things have cooled down a bit & im working on my shop preparing for winter I ordered a very small heater with a built in thermostat for each tent
