New Grower 00 seeds Northern Lights auto

[Arthur]

I was... been slathering about getting a press... but yes it'll be fresh. Used to do this alot when I grew before. I'd be out, go trim up the ladies in the basement, wash, purge, & smoke... only thing that's changed is I've modified my vape to do resins

Day 32... a few pics from around the garden.... first up, the Carolina Reaper... am seeing flowers form, wasn't expecting to pull any peppers this yr, but....

The big girl, she's stretching out now... she's a beauty...

My Thai peppers, have a large # of peppers on her, now starting to see the color change

And.... the little ladies... seems,like they're bigger every time I go out and check.

Hope everyones grow is going well,.... & yes being out still sucks.

Got some catching up to do in the flowering department. Lol. Just joking. They are looking great!

Day 33...
These girls amaze me every morning with the growth they've put on overnight....

So here's the run down... 1st up, the photo girl... she's now thigh high, and 4 plus feet across

Group shot of the 2 Northern Lights girls. Obviously 2 different phenos same soil same feeding... girl on the right is showing signs of preflower, on the left not yet...

This is the one on the left, she's also entered in the outdoor photo competition... she's just breaching the first ring of the tomato cage.

This is the one on the right, beautiful girl, and a little farther ahead. She's a little more pale than the other, but seems it's her thing, not a problem...

Is that preflowerin I see?

Peace all, and happy gardens!

Outdoor is fun, first time I've grown in the great outdoors. Good food, light from above, and a few prayers to the canna gods and things seem to be goin ok!

Things'll change in the fall when I get setup indoor... been almost 10 yrs since I grew. I had a big room, running 3000 watts of hps in the flower area, dedicated A/C, etc... things have changed so much tech wise, woulda laughed if led was suggested, and autos were a joke at the time.
Figure it'll take a while till I get dialed back in. Am ready to get started.... but the wallet says not yet.

Right now I have the room for a 4x4 tent, but keep tryin to figure out a way to get a 4x8 in there... would like to run photos and autos side by side same start date, let em grow, harvest the autos and spread out the photos and flip the lights.

Wow. Sounds like you got a solid plan. This is my first grow. But I am addicted. I love watching them get bigger and so amazed by rhe progress I see.
I was going to cheap out with cfls... glad I didn't. I've got $2000.00 in my setup right now and there's a few things I want to upgrade.
Sure glad there's guys like you as well as a few others that take the time to coach and walk us newbies though the process.
On the second hand though if I failed on this it may have stopped my newly formed addiction

@Patauto124, no going back dude.... a farmers life doesn't have failures, only learning experiences. When I started growing there wasn't this new fangled internet thing.... what you learned was thru trial and error... more of the latter to be honest. Occasionally you'd run across someone who would share info, but secrecy was the norm. It made it rough... so don't let a grow gone sideways set you off, just start again, the canna gods always smile on those in love with the plant!

Morning walk thru the garden, Day 34. Carolina Reapers are movin along, 2nd pic shows 1 site flowers are forming

My bagger girl is really putting on some height now

My NL that's entered in the outdoor competition, yesterday, she was getting ready to pass the first ring on the cage... today? Several side branches are outside, and blown thru the center going up! Incredible growth!

The red headed step child has decided to give the comp plant a good race.

A group shot of the Northern lights ladies.

Healthy gardens all!

Just a quick comparison yesterday morning....

And this morning

Holy crap, that's over 2 inches of stretch! And she's filled out as well! Am stunned.
