actually considering my "success" with the Royal dwarf, the name is pretty spot on. What they should do is just have a mutant version using the genetics you have!

really it means that you know what you're doing!!!:clap: and I'm not putting royal seeds down by any means! I am planning on ordering another round pretty soon, since I know the potential and now how (not) to treat the girls during their growth.

Man when I start my Royal Dwarf I REALLY hope they stay.....dwarf sized xD I saw another grow of this strain and its a HUGE size difference, but regardless both look great ^^ where did you order your seeds from?

How old are they now, too??

Ah okay, so you're pretty far into the grow then. :3 did they start flowering around week 3-ish? I'm growing a biodiesel auto and it started flowering earlier than I expected. But it's a lot smaller than your dwarf too lol

Yeah week 3 was around the time pistils were shooting! The week after that was when all the mega growth happened! Got a pic of your plant? What she growing in?

Ah okay-- so it's normal for 'em to flower that early on then. ^^
I actually really like growing autos, I'm not sure why some are so against them.

but, yes I'll upload a pic!

(Same plant) she's a bit lanky imo, and only 19" tall when I measured her this morning lol. 36 days old and nowhere near yours' size at that age it seems! I think it said it most it'll be 36" tall.
She's growing in Fox Farms Ocean Forest, and I started adding nutes on day 27 (Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom at 1/2 strength, added 1/4 tsp Epsom salt and baking soda to the mixture too)

I've seen a few gnats around though....that wouldn't stunt growth would it??

looking healthy man! what size pot she in? light? and nah. gnats shouldn't stunt growth. the ones i've encountered where only ever after the detritus in the soil. i love epsom salt. how come baking soda?

I agree with the auto growing love. i really don't get the hate these days. they grow beautifully!

They're 5 gallon pots I think.......though they feel small for 5 gallons. Maybe it's 3 lol....and I have her under 4 T5 daylight bulbs, and this weekend I'm planning on adding more light to the side because the bottom nodes look like they're stretching out for light.
But, gnats weren't really a problem then?? I have a sticky strip and they stick to that. I'm just afraid of them laying eggs ^^;

baking soda is just to help my ph since it seemed kinda low from how some of my leaves were looking, which the seem to be doing better now. :)

indeed! Also nice to not have to change the light schedule so if you wanted to start another grow in the middle of your current grow, you don't have to have a separate room. :D

NO I CANNOT! they are much bigger than my last plants. and they yeilded me 3 ounces from 3 plants. exceedingly average. if i get double that from this six i'll be happy! and that seems more than possible!

I know the feeling man!! , I like to pull up a chair and just chill with my buds when they get farther along in the flowering cycle. I find myself saying good night and good morning all the time. Great looking plants and I hope you have a happy harvest:)

Judging from your pics, I'd say you should let them go another 2+ weeks.
Looking wonderful by the way.
