Hi, got here late, just chopped up bbk by msnl, have 2 northern lights autoflowers running now, day 35, 1 is much larger, both in med pre flower, this is not advice, I only feed my autos base, botanacare pro food base, ffoc 4 medium, once my plants top off and are in full flower I flush out all the food base, give a final prune, this should happen between day 50 & 60, then I add botanacare pro flower base +Atami bloombastic, and put plants under bloom light, I ran an autoflower 110 days, I harvested 1 dwarf in 49 days, my mean ave is 72 days, I'm allso running killer kush a photoperid plant, first pic NL at day 35, second pic killer kush, 3rd pick my 3 bears, yes I high stress trained, yes I pruned, if anyone needs help just ask, note health of plants, yea I know just nl, I grew it beacuse it does not mind heat to much, just planted Mohan Ram, dark devel, and SAD by sweet seeds last night, I run like Henry Ford an assembly line, last year I grew 6 different strains in 6 months, I'm not bragging, I have been messing with these things for 8 years, but never ran outside, but I do have an East window and give my autos 4 hours of direct sunlight daily, happy growing.

Here is a pic of my small nl, her big sister outgrew her space and is now a free range plant, it's a little bear at day 37 and I'm going to run them in veg mode for another 3 weeks, I should have topped the big one but it was in pre flower, oh well no real problems so I guess all systems are go.

Ok we reached a milestone day 40, both plants are in full flower and about to top off, will leave in veg another 10 days min, want to get all i can in veg before I switch my light spectrum, once I feel I got about all i can in veg I flush out my plants add bloom base and enhancer and then change the spectrum of my light from full spec to bloom, yes sounds crazy but I never ran an autoflower under just full spec, once it tops and is in full flower as stated I change my nutrients from food to bloom, then change my light spectrum to full bloom get it? By doing this your flower will greatly increase and you will get the bud structure you need. Give me another month you will see.

I'm done trying to help people, was called a fairy tale Gardner, first I don't understand why I can't simply explain to people how to grow an autoflower, all i do is run them under full spectrum until they top off and are in full flower, I cannot understand why people can not understand, when my plants are toped and in full flower I switch over from food to flower base and agent, this does not make sence? I suppose you all just feed your autos food through the whole grow and run them full spectrum the whole grow, if my plants are in bloom why if I'm able would I not change the spectrum of my light to full flower or bloom?? I'm done burn your plants I don't give a f k. SNOLEPERD

I'm seeing purple hue on my nl,s, under my bloom light, this does not happen with every strain, you will see a pic of purple kush before I chopped did the same thing, although this is an illusion, a trick of light and shadow, in other words your leaves are not purple they are plum black but under your lights they do have a purple hue, this tells me this is a purple strain or at least a purple pheno, I'll take it.

Since 1 or 2 of your don't think I'm totally insane I will tell you what I did and why, as I stated i only want my autos to top off and be in full flower, when an autoflower grows in veg it will throw pistols then bud site's but allso new growth, when there in flower that's what they concentrate on building flower or structure, my plants have been in flower for 3 weeks though I kept them in veg, once they top I flush out all the out all the food residue, I then add botanacare pro flower base and Atami bloombastic, I used a tad under full dose base per gal, as for the Atami at week 3 of flower they recommend 4 to 6 Ml per gal so i went low i started at 2ml per gal then observed the effects on my 2 plants, I allso gave a final prune, I have the luxury of changing the spectrum of my light, so at day 41 6 weeks old a bit early but I am using a new light I did this from now on my plants will grow flower no more new growth yes your leaves will elongate and leaves will emerge from your flower but for all intents your plant is out of veg, the reaction, both plant were nicely jacked up, a few leaves started to curve in, if all your leaves curve in you gave to much, but since it was just a few so I let it slide, today the plant is still jacked up but no leaves are curveing in so this tells me my plants took it like a champ no burn, so at week 4 of flower I will up the Atami to 2.5ml per gal, see how my plants react, I will keep acclimating up till the tiny tips of my leaves burn then back off a bit, this will tell me my plants are at maximum uptake, so for right now I'm letting my plants chill out and get over the change I put them thru, as i said i have the luxury of owning a bloom booster so since my plants are in bloom why would i not use it?????? I cannot grasp with my mind why people dont understand what i did, its common sense, my plants have toped and I changed from food to bloom agent, my plants are in full bloom I own a bloom booster why not use it?? I have been running autos for 8 years, I never ask for help beacuse I don't need it, try to help people and I get insulted, and these are people asking for help well f them burn your autos I don't care, people tell me keep comeing back then give me a trophy well I don't want a trophy for growing nl, a rookie plant if you can't grow this give up, only reason I grew it is beacuse it's a tough plant and last year the heat messed up my grow, one pissed off SNOLEPERD

I run veg nutes or super soil for autos. Bloom feeds will induce flowering faster.

You are running them through stretch and that extends it as well.

Run the veg mix a bit longer and see what it does for thier size. I usually get them to run 100-110 days and get up to three feet.

Actually pinching or topping them young doesn't hurt them a bit for bigger srtrains. They usually yield more topping.

Good looking plants.

What size pots you running. I like 3-5 gallon. Three gallon being the sweet spot. I start straight to final pots.

I did this a bit early beacuse my plants are showing trichomes, they are so big I can barely get them in there space, your right these plants did have a bit of strech, I don't like to top if nessasary but in this case I should have, however if I did top the plants would have been really bushy I don't think both would have got in my flower room, I'm 6.2 both plants are up to my waste, I'm not afraid to run them 100 days if nessasary, but it won't be, day 70 to 80, autoflower plants do have a limited life span but they don't have a stroke and die at day 60, im in a tight spot im going to have to go buy a grow tent if im going to get the most out of my lights, I'm not gonna buy a piece of crap off Amozon, my hydro guy who sold me my lights will know just what I need, both plants are in 3 gal nursery pots, 99 percent of my plants go in 3 gal pots, I've used 3.9gal, and 2.5 gal, since I only grow indica or indica Dom hybrids these are generally but not always a bit smaller but yea I have to go buy a decent grow tent.

I though I replied to you, both plants are 40 inc tall, they have toped off and I'm seeing trichomes, I am using 3gal nursery pots, your right the plants did have a bit of strech, I don't like to top a plant unless absolutely necessary, I'm useing new lights and both plants are much bigger than expected, they can barely fit in there flower room, I'm not afraid to run an autoflower 100 or 110 days if nessasary, in this case I will probably have to havest the plants sequentially, witch I hate to do but I don't think I'm going to have much of a choice, and yes autoflower plants do have a limited life span but they don't have a stroke and die at day 60, this was my first grow with these lights, my hydro guy told me I was going to need a tent I paid $1100 for my lights, I'm like you just got me for the lights a bag of medium, a bag of clay, a bag of pearlite, and a bottle of Atami now you want me to buy a tent? But he was right if I'm going to get the most out of my lights I'm going to have to buy one, yea both plants out grew there space and can just fit in there flower room so yea I have to get my shit together and go blow some more cash.

I have been personally insulted on this site, was called a fairy tail grower, well it has been 1 week since I started to flower both my plants, both plants are huge, starting to show structure to there flower like I said it would, and are not yet even 50 days old, I may be a fairy tail grower but at the end of this grow I will be at farm aid smokeing my weed and watching Neil Young where will you be???

Never in all my life have I been continually insulted peroneley on a site, with a few exceptions most of you are just plain mean, I don't ask for help beacuse I don't need it, nor do I have to prove anything to a bunch of marrow minded jackasses, and the f s up thing is the people who insulted me the most were idiots, should I dunk my plant in soap watter, can I feed my plant pee, no SNOLEPERD you can't prune an auto piss off, so I am f u, I'm going to report in once a week to prove to you assholes that my method works just fine and no amount or virtual points or trophy will make me stay on this just plain mean website, to all those who begged for help piss off burn your shit I could care less.
