KISS my Hempy

Ya i remember that happening with EM. I guess its not such a bad thing if some the Rev or CC dont trigger themselves. I'll just have transplant them in into bigger containers come july. Your hempys sure make me wish i was around enough to give em a shot. Do you have any plans on what your gonna run for your indoor sun grow yet? have you seen the Auto-Jack that cks has now?
I'm going to wait until the 4:20 party to see what Crop King has to offer as they had some awesome deals last year, then I'll start germinating that same day (perfect day to sow some seeds)

Most certainly will be fem-auto's in hempy, as auto's work so much better with my limited direct sunshine. I might try the Candy Cane as I've seen good reviews about it

I love growing with sunshine, much more fun than artificial lights......damn, you're getting me all excited about my 2015 indoor sunshine grow

cheers

a bit of unexpected sunshine today, so a little fun in the sun, as they always love to breath some fresh ocean air while basking in the sun

hey watts...some roots pics of the DLF

the roots have not been solid/dense in these auto's as compared to my other grows...the dirt broke away rather easy...decent roots in the soil cap

To me a 2L has the perfect shape for use in small hempys, tall and narrow. Your root density is amazing. I wonder if the tap root of the auto hit bottom curled around and then traveled back up??? Most auto growers wouldn't try to grow in a container this short, YOU and the hempy have proved this to be another old wife's tale.

Hey ISK great thread. That DLF looks amazing. I couldn't see where you said if you ever
put the revolver in 12/12 or not, either way that sucks it never auto'ed.

I have a Critical auto that I was planning to throw outside in early June. Only tried one auto
outside before and the rabbits ate it so I am excited to try her out.

Are you doing auto's again next round?

Peace

I don't think they did, they look normal but just not as dense as other strains (I noticed this last year, even the one in a 3 gallon bucket)

Thanks Watts....I appreciate positive feedback from a seasoned pro such as yourself

I like the 2 L because it's small enough to move around, as I like to take the girl out sun tanning and feed them in the kitchen

I have these 1 gallon waste baskets that are tall and narrow, I'm thinking this may be a good compromise between the pop bottle and 3 gallon bucket

thanks Stoneslacker...good to hear from you again

yeah I did put the revolver in 12/12 and it started showing pre-flowers, but I guess I didn't keep it at 12/12 long enough as it reverted back to veg mode,

I guess my bad, but on the other hand that's why I bought auto's (this is the third time this has happen with Crop King auto's...going to complain to them and ask for some replacement seeds)

I'm going to do auto's again for my 2015 indoor sunshine grow, as they work so well with my limited summer suhshine

PS: kill the wabbit

I took the DLF out of the dry-tent, they were a bit drier than I expected or would like, but not an issue

I was surprized that the weight was 49 grams, I would have guessed less but no complaints, so into jars they go.

Tested a few popcorn buds...very tasty with a decent buzz, I'm rather pleased

I killed the revolver yesterday, as I'm only allowed 5 plants so no sense keeping the bud-less wonder...won't be long before the 2015 indoor sunshine grow starts

@WattSaver these roots are rock solid, just like previous grows.
I'm thinking it's because it was essentially in veg mode all along, so had the time to build up the roots rather than the buds (just my guess)

nice thick stock on this genderless misfit

Wow ISK, what a great root core, and the size of that stock just shows how much work was done in that bottle. Your work with these autos is very commendable. My attempts with autos have been less than stellar. Looking forward to your next IDSG

Cannabis plants always look better in sunlight. They just look happy. Wish I could grow
in some sunshine with the everyday care I put in my indoor. Unfortunately medical laws
here require me to lock and secure everything like I am storing plutonium or something.

Looking good, are the solo cups part of the upcoming IS grow? I seen you mention the 420
sale so I assumed you were planning on germing something then?

Peace

thanks stoneslacker....the 2 in solo cups is just a trial to see if LED bulbs can do better/worst/same as CFL bulbs for vegging...link is in my signature

BTW, the LED bulbs are doing okay but all in all not as effective as CFL, but they do run much cooler

I think I'll terminate them as I don't want to do grow it out in sunshine, would take until November

Yes,,,,still going to the 4:20 show to buy some auto-fems for this summer indoor sunshine grow

cheers

Looks good! I find that my plants always prefer the sunlight too. Be it cannabis or not. Speaking off... what are the ones that kinda look like a helicopter called?
those helicopter plants are called Agastache Blue Compact...they are a perennial, the flower looks like a cola but bight purple.

the Zinnia Candy Cane (pic below), and also a runt Agastache on the left.....last year the zinnia got PM, so this year I'm pre-treating it so it doesn't infect my pot plants like it did last year :(

I like flowers beside my pot plants, a bit of camouflages and the smell of non-pot flowers :)
