Nice one man. I'm looking forward to many fat bud pics! quick pics of the three afghan under their light...

http://www.homedepot.com/p/Reflectix-48-in-x-25-ft-Double-Reflective-Insulation-BP48025/100052556

If you don't have some sort of light reflection grab some of that. It's cheap and easy to install.

shit you can't see but just like a few centimeters higher i have mylar surrounding the grow area with a very nice reflector mounted to the lamp. i pulled up the sheets to help in photo taking. reduces reflection fucking up the image

also. living in ireland. home depot links are useless to me

Update! right. the afghan kush ryder are coming along very very nicely. second set of leaves making themselves be known! pics!


Here are the babies. seeds popped overnight. from the left to right - Moby Dick, Sweet Afghani, Lemon Haze....



i know... a picture of just soil in pots... i apologize! anyway.. getting more excited by the day... gonna be a beeeaaautiful grow full of fat lovely plants!

bad news... my lemon haze is gone... like a big ol' spastic, i accidentally nudged the box the small pots are on and the lemon haze took the fall while the other two where fine... soil.... everywhere... i searched and searched but the lil bean is long gone...... just put in my second moby dick to germinate... hopefully it'll catch up fairly nifty...
oh well... shit happens!

how did you manage to drop it five times!?!? that's crazy! but yeah.. as soon as they break soil and show those tiny first set of leaves poking out from the middle of the cotyledons... they pretty much become indestructable!

i need advice and people to talk goddamn it!

Moving plants from veg to flower cab to save some hydro. Moving a whole tray instead of individually will cause havok every time lol

Haven't heard many good things about WOS ... keep us updated on your progress bro -

but you surely have heard about the glorious results people have gotten with afghan kush ryder??

quick update. day 7 pics of the afghan kush ryder


and day 1 of the sweet afghani and moby dick.



I apologize for the hps infected photos... but yeah! honwardddds!

I fuxed with their Afghan Kush, not the ryder, just the normal Afghan Kush, culled every plant. Low vigor very slow plants no branching topped 'em and they wouldn't grow for days, said fuck it wasn't worth my time, not a single plant made it to flower. It's pretty rare that happens for me, I'll give nearly anything a chance, and stopping something 2-3 weeks in can put me pretty far behind. Cullin Af.kush from them was worth the delay in my harvests IMO. I would have had to veg for 2 months to get a 12 inch plant by the way they were growing.

People say good things about their auto's though, but auto's aren't for me I tend to take auto reviews with a bucket of salt most folks that say auto's are good haven't smoked good weed, at least that's my opinion. There are some folks that kill it with Auto's though. I'd like to smoke some of the "high-end" auto's but I won't waste my time growing them.

For cheap beans I look at Female Seeds. I grew Vision seeds too, but they weren't as good quality wise, the plants finished with decent yields a commercial person in the UK might like Vision. I think I culled Visions white widow for being very slow too.

i'm a huge fan of autos mainly for the quick grow cycle... here's a pic from the last time i grew em. they're about 7 weeks old in it and a closeup. all i can do is assure you that the potency of the smoke equals many photos.. but sure i aint here to change your mind!


wish i had pics nearer harvest.. they were fat as fuck!

Very nice bud Cloud ! - I am confused about autos... some ppl like you get good results with them, while many others swear by never using autos because they are "garbage". Not sure who to believe, and I admit, some autos do look interesting. I've never tried them, mainly because of all the bad vibes i've heard about automatic hybrids (ruderalis genes). So, care to weigh in, anyone?

here's another one of my Royale Cheese Auto which i grew before the afghan kush last year..


From what i've generally come across is the haters of autos just haven't ever given them a chance. they just quote outdated information about them that hasn't been true in many years. like the low potency, the tiny yeild.. things like that, have all been completely breeded out. for that grow up there i used a 400w hps, 10 litre pots, biobizz allmix and for nutes i used cheap tomato feed and one feeding of epsom salts mid grow. knowing what they needed when they did (I live by the less is more rule, which can be hard to follow) which is especially true for autos... they will flourish. if you have any specific questions, ask!

Thanks for that informative reply. Those are some monsta' ass buds above man- Daamn You make Autos look Great. Do you run them 18/6 indoors? Which auto hybrids would you recommend as "can't go wrong" high performance strains?
