They both feel kinda stiff not soft like the male. But they keep growing. So f it. Ain't broke not gonna try n fix it. They've both been like that. I managed to peak around back and plenty of hairs have grown so definitely not a male. I gave her a bath today and changed up the nutes to half strength.

I also talked to the dude from ebay and he offered a 4x4 upgrade but that is too big so I got him to send a 2x4x5 little tent and some yo-yo hangers for my light. So I am happy. And I still haven't smoked grrrrrr.

is it just the 2 left? 1 bagseed and 1 auto? How old?........them auto's like alot more light then just 12/12 , i think they would go faster with 18/6 or even 24/0 , them autos are designed flowering no matter the light.
which nutes ?

Bag seed was the Male 3 left, 1 in AG 2 in soil all Short Rider. I hear short rider isn't an autoflower. I was just messing around and experimenting going 12/12 from seed to see how it went. 1 of the soil short riders is 18/6. I want to see if it will autoflower. I am using the technafloro recipe for success starter kit for nutes. http://www.technaflora.com/products.php?product=18


And I want a smoke! heh

do NOT order from nirvana anymore! they cant breed roaches let alone pot.
Short rider IS supposed to be a auto , if its not then they fucked up. and with the reviews i just read it seems they fucked up AGAIN. I got some Ice from them and out of 6 females, not one turned out the same. one was purple , one was covered in trichs , one had no trichs and the others just sucked.
now i am like u too, if i get something new , i want to flower it right away to see what were workin with. but with a "true auto" you do not have to do that , it will only flower when it wants to , not because of light change. and by the 3rd or 4th week it will start flowering even if on 24/0.
since u got ripped off, i would say to continue to do what you are doing.

I definatly am not sayin its gonna be bunk, im just sayin you should have got what u ordered NOT what they sent.

How old are they now?
..........................................i'll be back

The dirt in the green planter is about 2 weeks i think. and the AG and mutant are about 3 weeks.
I don't feel like I was ripped off. From the smell of it vegging I think I will enjoy it very much. I got em on sale too and it was my first time ordering.

I have a bunch from The Single Seed Centre now too. I want my current grow to be over so I can start my next. I have Blue Mystic, Wonder WOman, Northern Lights, and Lowryder. I may order a couple more autoflowers today and do an auto grow next and then when I have a nice supply I will play with the other seeds.

Attitude wants $23 for guaranteed shipping. WTF They can suck my nuts. I was gonna order Easyrider and red dwarf and get the freebies. End up with 4 freebies but with guaranteed ship it almost doubles the price. Baaaah!

yes attitude and single seed center are great middle men. stick with them. nirvana are just wanna be breeders.
the "guarenteed shipping" dont mean shit. plus u have to sign the pack IF u use guarenteed shipping. and also u will get a tshirt or coffee mug. if u just order the regular way , they still come just fine. its just a marketing gimmic to make people think they either wont get them or they will take forever (both are wrong)

stick with a good indica strain for now, they are much easier to take care of.

Well my mini short rider went male on me. YANK! The thing was only 3 inches tall. It was tuff toostarted from a tiny seed and replanted in dirt then replanted again and then knocked over and replanted again. lol He was a fighter though. A moment of silence for him. heh And now I am down to 2. 1 is a female in the AG and 1 is too early to tell in dirt.

Naaah, how would they reproduce. Some auto females can produce seeds. But there are male and female, I saw a post that a guy bread some lowryders for seeds. Lowryder claims to be hermaphrodite free. But I only know what I read heh.

My light will be here tuesday and my lab on thursday. The filter has been running and doing its job very well. I don't smell anything from the plants unless I touch them or shake em a little. And I am still not smoking, errr aaahm tobacco. heh

Do you do clones or grow from seed? I am just in it to have some good headweed and to not contribute to terrorists or get robbed in the ghetto. So a plant or 2 every few months will do me well. Does Attitude have a sale every month? I am so tempted to buy more seeds but I have 5 strains already. But I am just greedy for a deal and my luck they'll go bad before i use them. heh

I checked on her before she went to bed and she is filling in. only about 7 inches tall but is about a foot wide. The fan leaves are almost as big as my hand. And little hairs sprouting all over.

G'morning, pics. She is spreading out and looking happier today. She is still droopy though but not as bad. Must be this strain or a female thing because the male i chopped down was tall and proud. heh Well she is getting a little taller maybe 7 inches but over a foot wide. And the dirt is getting bigger too. The dirt seems like a sturdier plant. Leaves are kinda stiff too but healthy feeling. AG is kinda soft and fuzzy feeling.

Yup but on a scaled level. I am using half power now. First 2 reservoirs were veg and last 2 have been flower. I did 1/5 1/4 1/3 now 1/2. I think it likes the half because it has grown an inch since yesterday. heh I also feed my dirt grow too. The new growth was kinda light green and yellow so it needed nitrogen. And I am starting that at 1/4 strength then water then 1/2 str then water twice and see how it goes from there.
