Auto Assassin CFL Grow - UK

Yeah , he has a nice set-up. I was just posting this to show everyone that Auto's are getting better and can produce some weight.

Love the vid, quality. Wish I knew him need someone like him in LA or LV to help me out when over in September !
so many auto haters ! don't know why as they are fantastic for small growers like myself. My mate is growing some normal haze, keeps going on about how my yield will be shit. Funny as my 5 plants (would have been 8 if I hadn't fucked up a few) will be ready months before his. If I pull 4oz from 5 then that would be great. Can probably do another 5 before his is ready. He only pulls 3 or 4 and is only doing one !

anyway a few pics. A week to go on Sunday.!! The buds are really really dense and quite heavy ! great
pic 9 is the Snowrider just over a week in flower.

Looking great.

cheers man, day 4 of flushing, anything special i should be doing or just water every other day and wait until next sunday ?

just shit my self as had chopper over head ! luckily I had the shed door open and inside temp was only 2 degrees higher then outside. Was wondering how much these pig planes can see/ my shed is under a huge conker tree so can the heat camera's see through trees ? para now !! better go and smoke another one !!

check this guy out. How lucky to find this in your garden !! http://www.hamhigh.co.uk/news/video_west_hampstead_gardener_digs_up_nuclear_bunker_1_891820

Just water should be fine.

The equipment can penetrate through tree's yes. They look for 2 things usually, the temp. range for MJ and in the mountains also where there is water and should not be, which is also picked up by their equipment. If placing outside Don't group them together, and fir tree's share similar temp's. For inside they make IR blocking material, that keeps the heat siginature inside and reflects outside temps. Be cautious when installing to not have a leak or bubble behind where heat may build.

When you are licensed it is nice to be able to wave at them in your private legal garden as they fly over. I did everyday at the last place I lived, I had a nice yard, I so miss using the sun, back inside for awhile until I can relocate again.

Sounds like a good spot for a grow.

Looking awesome! Is it just me or do you have some pretty massive buds going on considering they are autos?!?

cheers PakaloloHui, being in the city it always a problem but i'm in a box in a shed under the huge tree so doubt it's that noticeable plus they are CFL's and have fans on the bulbs. Temps only seem a bit higher than outside so probably worrying about nothing. How can I relocate to CA !! would love to live out there with my bad back, cough cough !! Was give loads of leaflets when I was at Venice Beach for free consultations with doctor bud, awesome, Dam with the sun and beaches lol, would say babes too but Dam has some beautiful women and mostly all real !

IDGS - thanks mate, yeah looking quite big, seen a lot bigger (Irishfarmer is doing a grow on here and his are huge!) but the top bud's got to be pushing 10 when finished, well I hope so hope to be clearing around a oz, wont complain !! wish I'd discovered autos a few years back rather than struggling trying to grow plants that grow too big to hide.

I'll try to get some more pics tomorrow as the ones I put on today are from yesterday.
Still waiting for the BigBang to flower. Been 3 or 4 weeks so taking its time. Do auto ever not auto ? if they do what do I need to do ? switch to 12/12 for a while.
cheers !!

Some auto's may need 18/6 to trigger flowering, and some won't auto unless 12/12 and then that would put them in the non-auto category. This is usually a sign, if frequent in strain, that it is not stable yet.

You can wait and it might just take it's time, and then drop the hours if still no sign.

yeah at 3-4 weeks the big bang should be in early stages of flowering....mine are 2 weeks old and they are already forming bud sites and showing their sex......i got some good pictures of the bud sites forming.....the bigger one is already over 10 inches across......they really like the alaska fertilizer for growth........check out the pics....these are the 2 big bang plants.......the 3rd one is still small so i didnt take any pics of that one

here are some good pics of the assassin.......really good bud production for 6 weeks old.....3-4 weeks to go

got a couple of questions !
7 days flushing, 7 to go. Seen a lot of people say you need to put plant in darkness for 48 hours, do I do this at the end of flush (day 14) or at day 12?
Also should I start to prune some of the bigger leaves off ? if so how many ? can I take them all off to expose the bottom buds ?

Any secret drying tips ? Will hang upside down for a week

Will try to get some pics tomorrow.

yes, the last 24 hours of flushing should be in darkness.........for drying u can choose to trim all the fan leaves off or hang the whole plant.....just make sure that the plants arent touching while they hang and u need an Oscillating fan in the area to help dry the buds......1-2 weeks for drying.....when the stem snaps easily then the buds are done drying.

thats what I thought. Going to have to finish a few days early, the big bud has taken off and I need to get the assassin out of there. Need to re build the box as I'm going to have 3 flowering and dont have the room. Will take out on Wed's and give her 24 hours of darkness so last water tuesday. Won't water for the last 2 days as I want it to dry quicker. Haven't used much nutes so not worried that it will be 12 days flush rather than 14. Will try to get some final pics the day before she gets cut. Cant wait, in a few weeks some nice AK/haze bud if I can hold out that long !!

here are some new pics of the assassin and the big bang.....the big bang are in the back and off to the side....they dont have flowers yet but are almost the same size as the assassin! The 2 assassin plants are looking great....juts turned 7 weeks old yesterday and right on schedule with bud production.......1 -2 more weeks until i start to flush them

well i harvested the 2 auto assassins today......the buds looked really nice and thick.....lots of resin.......have them hung up to dry.....the big bang should be done in about 5 weeks....expecting a much bigger yield from them......the assassins were only 13 inches tall so pretty good yield from them.....

Bro a 150 hps should be to hot for ur space if u can control 300w of CFLS..But over all very nice...I am just finishing up my first grow and they are autos dinafem haze auto 1 white dwarf and 1 syrup, off these 6 im gonna get over 8 oz..My biggest is at 90+ days and gonna give me 3-4 oz(its a haze)..39inches tall had to top 3 weeks into flowering also do to the height it still hits the light if i dont bend it over...Thinking of doing the assassin after my PHOTOS finish now about 9-10 weeks...

I have a 600w in a 4.5 ft long and 2.5ft deep wood closet and no ventilation just cool breeze fan in closet and no real heat issuse unless it gets to 90+ outside and really high humidty the i sweat my ass of as its in my b-room but plants dont complain so biggest thing is to have a steady breeze and if u can add c02 if ur temps r above 86 degrees u'll be golden and much happier..HPS get 1..JMO

Or even get a blackstar LED..No heat 3-5 degrees maybe
