these are biodiesel and green poison -soaked seeds over night (about 24hrs)then put them into the pods that swell with water and have their own little green house--4-6 days had 3" tall sprouts that go into the 5gallon bucket of MG soil--cfl for 24/0 for about 3 weeks then 18/6--I take them outside when the sun is out (just started being warm in lakes region of nh)--this is my first try with auto and im pleased with the grow and cant wait to see the end result--the 2 bigger are NL auto bigger was apr 1 and the smaller 4/20--all cfl and outdoors101_1428.jpg101_1429.jpg101_1430.jpg the indoor pics are only 4 days older than they were outside101_1431.jpg101_1432.jpg101_1426.jpg

I'm doing the same thing.. It's my first grow and I ended up with only 1 plant after screwing up germination which killed 5 expensive seeds. I was planning on just starting them indoors but bought the wrong type of bulbs which slowed the growth even more. I finally built a CFL grow box and when it's too cold or the weather here in RI is bad(which it had been!) I take it in and use the CFL's. It's finally getting warmer and I'm getting the plant used to being outside more and more. So far the growth outdoors had been far better than indoors. The strain is Auto Seeds Diesel Ryder. Your plants look great big! My plant is 17 days old and is about the size of your bio diesel plants. Do you take them in and give them more light at night? I've been giving mine some extra light because of me stunting its growth early on. What kind of soil and ferts do you use?
