Autoflower Tutorials

Cliff-notes ver… I did a 6 bean pheno hunt of sorts.. one turned out to be a male. (He was beautiful looking back) As it was my first run of regs, i missed the signs (plus 6 beans (1 gal) was way full tent action!) So when I noticed it was for sure male over Christmas wknd…it dropped pollen cpl days at minimum before u could call Kull the conqueror. and of course he was at the back of the tent so getting him out.. i just felt I was bound to be a Seed-poppa soon. i am wonder/asking for tips tricks, sage advice.. 1 i was going to give some samples to the homies, but now that i know they are seeded potentially heavily, i kinda want to see if they are viable and keep my own stash, albeit MUCH sooner than i had planned on the seed hobby...

Can i re use promix bx for another grow

I think they're old Rocbud or Mephisto but can't swear buy it but they sure are unusual buds. One picture was after trim and green the others are after drying. They're taking on a coffee aroma but have been curing only 10 days.

Hey, has anybody used the Bonnie and Clyde auto flower products?

In case anyone hasn't heard, Jorge has a new digital grow guide out. Good stuff. This is the download link for the book...

Using an IR temp meter, what do you like to have your leaf temps approximately? How about flower temps?

I am 49 days into this grow in my garage. 21/3 light cycle. The tent is running in the mid 70Fs with 50-60% rH with lights on. Lights off and the temp goes into the low 70s high 60s with a humidity in the 80s. I have 4 fans moving air inside the tent constantly. Do I run a risk of mold/mildew if I continue with lights off numbers like this for just 3 hours? Would running the light 24/0 at this point cause the plants to hermie or other issues?

At what age do you typically start lollipop trimming? I'm at almost 4 weeks and will start.

heres tutorial on how to make some BUBBLE HASH THE TRICHOME FARMER WAY HERES WHAT YOU NEED bubble bags a 2 bag set will work with 220micron work bag and a 25micron bottom bag to catch the resin the more bags you have the more refined the final product will be next up. a mixing spoon anything that is good and rigid will work just fine a 25micron pressing screen not essential but very handy to have most bubble bag sets come with one if not the internet will provide also a couple of towels or paper towels to wick some moisture from the hash before freezing make sure your bags are in the right order largest micron size at the top so in my case this goes 220 . 160. 75 and 25 you will need a 25l bucket to fit the bags into iv mine...

How many when compared to how many plants you want to grow? Do you germinate a few more than needed? I use starter cubes. For instance, I want 4 of one strain (I have 5 seeds) and 2 of another (I have 3 seeds). I'm probably going to germ them all and see which ones pop and are the most vigorous.

Terpene1 - any of a large group of volatile unsaturated hydrocarbons found in the essential oils of plants, including cannabis (with over 120 terpenes) which play a large part in the aromas and flavours of plants. Cannabinoids are a class of terpenophenolic (part terpenoid, part phenol) compounds. While terpenes are hydrocarbon groups created by various combinations of the isoprene units that make them up, and may be aromatic, all phenols are aromatic hydrocarbons, which means they have a very pronounced aroma. Terpenoids are compounds related to terpenes but may also include oxygen or have molecules rearranged; the terms are often used interchangeably. Cannabinoids, being half terpene and half phenol, have very pronounced aromas and...

Cannabis: Forms and Types (Beginner-Advanced) These days there are a lot of different types of cannabis plants available...between standard photoperiod strains, light sensitive photoperiod strains, fast version photoperiod, semi-autos, and standard autoflowering plants, whew! As well as the 3 standard types of cannabis, indica, sativa, and ruderalis, also a mix of the three which are classified as hybrids. What does this all mean? Lets first delve into the 3 main types of Cannabis. All photoperiod and autoflowers are either Indica, Sativa, Ruderalis(autoflower), or a combination of any of the 3 in a hybrid. The 3 types have very different characteristics. Indica - These are the base strains for heavy narcotic stones. These strains...

Afternoon all. As the title says, can autos be grown all year round, indoors, but without a tent or lights. No specialist equipment what so ever. Just popped into medium, a nice warm, central heated room, with natural light. I've read on some sales websites, that this possible, since their not photos. Has anyone tried this.

Just listened to a Growcast episode from 7/18. The guest mentioned that there is a study showing that an effective criteria for determining whether to defoliate a particular leaf is 200mmol/m2/s. This is because below this level it takes more energy to maintain that leaf than the leaf provides back to the plant. Just wondering if anyone has seen this study and where I could score a read - sounds like a very interesting idea. Thanks in advance. :pass:

My girls have responded well. I left the ponytails on during lights on and took them off during lights out. 18/6 I did 2 sessions. I just bumped up the light to 75% power at 24" also. I tried upping it 4 days ago and they didn't like it. Now they seem to. They are 25 days old. Ethos Pluto Cut and 420Fastbud CBD. I love growing.

Eveing all. New to the site. Spent the last few hours going through here. Great site, learnt so much already. I have been growing autos now for a number of years. Outdoor grows, in pots. I grow 4 plants a year, two cbds, and two low thcs, nothing above 13% level. I tried photos, with very poor success, due to climate and rot, also the time it took them wasn't practical for me. I had a successful year this year. I have been doing a bit of reading up in ruderails, regular, and am very interested in them. I bought a pack of seeds of sensi seeds. My question to members who know more than me, is, can I breed these with feminized autos to produce some of my own seeds. Or would I be better off, using a regular auto strain.

You don't need an auto pot to use an airdome. Just use a fabric smart pot, hydro pebbles, and coco. I'm doing a control now with 4 plants that have 4 air domes and the rest of the plants do not, its around 8 plants without that are the same age. The 4 with the air domes are out growing the other plants by about 35%. They're taller, bigger and more leaves, and growing a lot faster. I have 3 of them tied down and its putting on limbs like crazy. I think this is a big enough grow for a control group to compare. Your opinion may be different, but they are getting 15 liters of air an hour 24/7 and its night and day difference. THey're cheap, easy to set up and zero maintenance ..You really should try a couple..You place the airdome in the...

baged this from someplace else it was posted by Mutt a long time ago great info though. What reflective materials can I use for my grow room? Choosing the right surface for the walls of your grow room is very important, as up to 40% of your total yield comes from the edge, and the right wall surface can increase the amount of light those plants receive by up to 30%! Artificial lighting diminishes exponentially with distance, so it is important to ‘contain’ as much of this light as possible, and direct it accordingly. Reflective surfaces also help illuminate the lower portions of the garden, providing lower buds with light and heat energy. To get the best results with your light and walls, it is important to get the walls as close as...

Hey guys and girls. Just starting out and have chosen to go with a auto flower plants. My question is has any one out there got a feeding chart for autos using advance Nutrients at all pretty please Thanks to all.

What's up AFN? I was inspired by @Son of Hobbes' "Operation Compassion Care" thread, to post a tutorial, "Dollar Tree Meets Wally World: Grow Meds On The Cheap". I've been thinking of what the next step is for a new grower after they complete their first grow . For most new growers, the answer is to buy new seeds, which can be very costly. Cloning is a priceless skill to acquire. It may seem to be a very technical application of growing, and maybe it is, but it doesn't have to be an intimidating process. I am going to put up a "bare bones" tutorial on how to do it on the easy, and on the cheap. I am going to do it as one consecutive post, so let's get stared! :thumbsup: Tools Needed Alcohol Scissors/Shears Box Cutter/Blade Permanent...
