pretty sure you want to soak then crack then germ with any auto strain. I did this for my mini thunderfucks

yeh m8, out of the first three i germed 1 shot off and grew tall, and 2 stayed quite squat, they turned out to be males, ive got 2 new ones which have gone quite tall already, so im hopeing there females.
nines quite alot, they do go quite bushy, so youll need some space, what set up are you using?:joint:

i aint really done anything lol, must be the good genetics. useing biobizz soil and biobizz flowering nutes, could be the light, as it lets off little heat. have you had your test smoke yet, when u thinking of harvesting

yeah, test smoke was good, but cut too early. She's having another fit of flowering right now so I think I'll probably leave it until closer to the suggested 70 days.

ive heard its difficult to clone auto strains as theres no way to stop them flowering, so the clones end up smaller, you might as well just pollinate a female and get loads of seeds.

yeah, you can clone the auto's but since clones are the same age as the parent, kinda defeats the purpose.

ive noticed that the new plants i have growing under the red spectrum with the big plant, arent doing aswell as the previous plants i had under the blue for veg, so im going to altenate the bulbs and see how it goes, so ill have the blue bulb in for 10 hours then the red bulb for 10. or might just do it by the day.

I reckon it's probably best to just leave them under the red for now since they're probably already starting to flower. The smaller ones may have done better under the blue from the start, but after four weeks it'll be all flowers from now on. Unless you mean that you've got smaller ones that you're trying to raise at the same time, under the same light, as the ones you've shown pics of?

yeh i was thinkin that my self, they start to flower soon, just thought id see how they do ive had the blue on for a day and they seem to be responding to it, the stems look really thin compared to the ones i did under the blue, the leafs look about the same size, but it seems the stems are bending under the weight, i wonder if the blue spectrum promotes stem growth more,ill altenate for 2 or 3 days then just leave the red in.
i went away the weekend and asked my girl to watch them for me, i come back and the big one has grown to the lamp and burnt the top leaves, women aye:dunce:

day 36, buds are starting to show some good shape now, branch growth seems to have slowed down, but the buds are getting bigger, had to prune the fan leaves at the bottom, as they where turning yellow.noticed a nice fruity smell coming from the plant not really strong but smells sweet. took a shot of the setup aswell, to give u an idea of how close u can place the cfl to the plant.

day 15-16 two younger plants, showing early signs of sex, but carnt tell yet if there male or female, dont think there as big as the other plant at day 15, could be due to being germed under red spectrum bulb, will have to transfer them to bigger pots soon.
