The Art of The Auto

FullDuplex said:

I hear you guys this is why i became so obsessed with breeding, well it lead to that so to speak. I now have enough auto beans to last a while and that was from one run. I too hate to get rid of a dealer and go to a seed bank. Prices are about the same lol, not only that i KNOW what is in the pot, and what it was grown in. Not only that but i can make the meds suit my needs and not line the pockets of a middle man in the process looking for something that is going to work.

Also i dont think i could afford my habit any more now that i pretty much have the stuff on demand. I have 4 flowering females and then two little gals that just showed
One in which is getting dedicated to 43Hitman and his LST curiosity. So i am gonna see how well they do in cups in LST formation. Well see what the weights are going to be. Got to love the live tests.

Also, now that i have 2 more sexed its time to start germing again, this time i think i am going to give the Red BB's i have a run as well as some psiren's


EDIT: page 385 ownage ........i feel like BH now

Haha, I feel honored. The Lemon Auto Skunk popped the dirt tonight(this is the one I'm going to LST), and I can see a bulge where the PJ is coming up also! I'll prolly wait to put the newborn under light for a day or so, I'll just leave her on the very outskirts of the light foot print. Just enough to tease, lol.

All pics in this shoit execpting close-up bud pics and wide angle grow room shots are the 6 girls I made clones of tonight...

AB short AB Tall
AW Short AW Tall
LR2 Short LR2 Tall

cant wait till i crop out 2morro, i may have let them go a day or two over, but no harm no foul gonna be Dank!!

some Jem x Ak, and some bad bettys off to the side, blue cheese in the back non af.

Looking good anonmix

Thanks john! yours are looking very nice healthy. You say your taking clones of them? have you tried it before wth autos? results?

only taking clones for light derpivation (force male flowers) cuz all i have is femmed... and I wanna cross more fem seeds... so thats all they're for... not trying to increase yields from one seed... doesn't sound like that reals feasible... although at some point I may try it for hahas!

Okay, so here is a new one on me. I put a seed in a paper towel today at 6 pm and at 11 pm it has cracked open and sprouted a tale. In the dirt with her frisky ass.

Damn! she's a true slut huh?


can anyone tell me whats causin this shit? is it heat stress? cal/mag defficiency?
anyone?

If you are talking about the large one that has the yellow fans id say its root bound.
If she has come to a stop in flower and has not progressed its because she can not.
at this point she is in stress anyway, so a transplant may bother her a bit but once given the root room
she may turn around for you.

yeah the biggy...this has been what i was thinkin for the past week n half this soil seems to really push the roots...what about im gettin a lil leaf curl think its mag?? a bit late now to do right now think ill tackle it in da morning, but ill need to cut the pot and put her in a 5 gal...Thanx..anyone with exp with La Blanca?

plant looks fine IMO...the yellowing on the bottom is nothing to worry about. probly a lil CAL/MAG deficiency always starts from the bottom.

ive growen 2foot autos in one gal pots with no probs at all.

thought it might be cal /mag... just started a regiment tonight (epsom salts) dunno about thrips... but gotta knock this shit on its ass QUICK!

Im stuck on either repottin or leavin her...but Ill just have to see what repottin will do cause leavin her and waiting isnt doin it for the moment..7 weeks wheres my crystally buds?

Well, thanks for the tip greanmean69... definetly is thrips... got some carnivores on the way to eat their worthless asses up!
btw, the wiki on thrips is really great... didn't realize those little ass holes also accouint for most of the tomato and flower viral infections in the world today... little diseased mongrels... remind of mice and rats!

This is why i think that she is root bound.

If you take a look at the bud sets in this pic



You can see that she has started to flower but her buds are not set. Take a look at the crown/ head formation
it is not fully developed and has not lifted. When my buds are coming in at this phase there is still a bit of stretch
in flower until the crown bud forms. Seems that once that happens the rest start to fill in its almost like a trigger.
IF this plant is pot bound there was no room for the roots to develop as she finished her last bit of stretch heading
into full flower. As they are entering flower, they still produce roots, actually i dont really think that they stop.
If there is no room for this than the bud development will slow as well leaving the plant in a hibernated state.
When you go to transplant take a pic of the roots i want to see them if you dont mind.

But i bet once you get her in a new home and she settles i bet she grows a little more and then starts filling out

SS has problems with their feminized beans...
I buy 10 packs of regular HBD and have had 1 male out of 25 beans...
RRF is producing all females also, 10-10 females so far...
I would just buy regular HBD or RRF because the female ratio is amazing with their regular beans, Their feminized beans may as well be called Male beans.haha
Also their feminized HBD are really short and mangie looking while their regular HBD grow amazingly.




I like their mixed pack but its hard to tell what strain you are growing with each individual plant.
Anybody with some exp. growing SS strains would be able to tell whats whats but even then there are some test crosses and accidental crosses that would be unknown...

Thanks TD and NC, very good to know. I think I will probably just run with the HBD regs then. I think I will also try a small pack of the KANN. just out of curiosity. I am looking hard at their bigband auto.

word... seems like a lot of work that the "BREEDER" or "BEANER" should have already done... I propose we call shitty breeders "BEANERS".... lol

EDIT: its your thread... you should have ownage occasionally FD!

I like the, Beaner Idea john. It is a real shame that some of these Beaners would continue to push products that are not what they say they are. All for the mighty dollar.

*FUCKING BEANERS!

lol...yeah i know it was..i saw all the lil white marks on the leafs...you can use some biodegradable dish soap and water to spary them.should slow them down...neem oil works very well. also hand to hand combat (fringers smashing) should be used..if you have a other grow room or go to a buddys grow room WASH YOUR HANDS & ARMS!! befor you do...and by the way its MEANGREEN69....lol
