First Grow - Autoflowering

Still using the 125W CFL lamp.

Cut a branch off and quick dried it in the oven last night.
Was far too stoned already though, all i noticed was that it was pretty bad tasting,
but thats from drying in an oven.

Pretty much wasted it haha.
Oh well, live and learn.

Left the air freshner in with my plant a bit too long too,
now I have buds that smell of the bathroom.
Not really any need to flush but it might help get rid of this,
any word on that?

Edit: It's very upsetting to see your buds shrink in front of you when drying too... haha

Someone is smoking some kind herb... I can almost smell it

Just checking in again, i'm on day 22 since it popped out the soil, just over 5 inches tall. It's crazy looking at your grow! I feel like i'm looking at my plant!! I might be able to post a picture on this tread next week if thats alright by OP, just to compare.

I have a really small cupboard with 4 CFL's, first 3 weeks was 2x30w 6500K and 2x23w 6500k, 3rd to 4th week its showing hairs so i'v taken out the 2 23w 6500k and put in 2x26w 2700k. I have another 2x26w 2700k which I will which to when 4th week begins, we can compare as the total watts is basicly the same. I can only use 4 bulbs at any one time due to heat issues.

Make sure you get a cheap scale or something, I got one off eBay for £5, including postage... I had to wait 2 weeks from Hongkong but it measures to the nearest 0.01g so well worth it. Just so you can tell us all your final weight!

Goodluck with the harvest bro, I should be lucky if my plant looks as good as yours!!

Hopefully your plant will look better, and won't hermie on you.

I've been picking away at this plant now,
quick drying buds here and there when I run out of bud.

Should probably cut it down now and dry it,
but I've been waiting to see if seeds are produced.
It's become more of an experiment than a plant to smoke!

And yeah, thats fine, post away.

This ripe?

Looks ripe to me, I read that 60% or more of the hairs should have gone amber when its ready, anything after that is just the plant dying. Don't hold me to it though, research first.

mmm maybe.. looking real nice and frosty though..
dont judge if the plants are ready by looking at the hairs.. u have to look at the trichomes if they start turning amber than u can start thinking of harvest..

Let the rest of those white hairs receed back in, then it will be done

Just to let people know, just in case anyone stumbles on to this thread, I got roughly 1.5 Oz and the bud was suprisingly good.

Although I wouldn't bother with Autoflowering ever again.

enjoyed this thread. I'm a noobie myself. I have an autoflower on the go which is almost ready I think - photos on my profile
