New to this site my grandpa used to grow since he was a teen did it until he passed away this year. He was so in love he got am article in high times in 96. He taught me alot these last two years and we always wanted to get a nice 4 by 8 tent and test out a bunch of bizarre strains. He always wanted to see how fast autos were and wanted a nice tasting strain due to alot of autos being less potent. So we ordered some thseeds bubblegum autos a tent and a new dimmable 600w light and his 400w hps I have two that came up and im doing this grow in his honor. He lived to our outdoor harvest of some bag seeds last thing he said was that smells nice as I harvested the last sativa that finished late. He died later that night. Now I have all the things we planned to do and I want to get the best results possible. I can't find any good info on enhancing my autos they are in a 15 gallon bag style pot with humbolt mix, fox farm fertilizer adding a light feeding of mutes in my watering I don't know how long they will take to finish they sprouted out of the pots on November 12th started flower already maybe almost two weeks now would like feed back if you have tried this strain and tips to help improve density and weight. Thanks sorry I rambled first Christmas with out gramps and he was the closest person to me. I wish he could have seen the race to grow the bubble gums had.
growing with grandpa .......nice
ok to do a auto .......u need to increase the food u offer it ......keep the light at 100% power (those 100% 75% 50% ballast are not good for the bulbs and it alters the lightwaves it admits
feeding is what u need .......this plant is really tall with not much leaf out put ....the soil is off it did not get enough food at set stages
so feeding now is going to really help it .....also with it feeding like this the stems are not going to take the weight so be ready to tie them off to the stalk
ideally u want to use a mix of organic and chemical feed to get the most out of the plant
right now u need double dose of bloom a single dose of grow ........hit it with b-52 and rooting for 2 weeks also u going to want budcandy (advance nutrients) and honey(from humboldt) and the fox farms powders all 3 of them
bud candy and the honey u use in every watering ........hit it with open seame for 2 watering then move to beastie bloom for 3/4 watering in a 2 week period half power str .....then run cha ching half power until (every 3rd watering) about 10 days before u cut ...u stop all chemical feed
budcandy honey and organic bloom is ok to use until about 3 days before u cut last watering use nothing but water ......give it 24 hours of day light then 48 hours of darkness cut and harvest the plant should be clean good smoke (organics are the key for that with just little chemical for the power)
