Indoor Am I the only one doing large Auto Grows???

[C.E]

Here is an example of how they look like while younger:

<------------ Notice where the original "top" is now (rightmost branch)
You can notice how and where I tie the stems.

ps: LST is applied either as soon as the first preflowers appear (i cut the males and lst the females), or is applied to whatever looks like its a long vegger, and probably thus a female, since the males appear quite quickly.

Wow C.E., looks like I am going to have to read your thread and see how the pros do it Great description of your LSTing, good growing man.

 

[C.E]

Thanks bro, let me know if you have any questions.
They are always welcome in my thread.
Or you can always shoot a pm.

How do you water all those little pots? by hand?

Sorry I have never seen a tent(in person) is that 8w and 4 high?

 

[C.E]

That small tent is only a DR60 (60x60x140 cm), so only about 4 pots at a time. So hand watered.
The big rooms are fed by an irrigation/jet hooked up to a rez.
Feeding 50+ plants by hand ain't fun at all.

Yea I hand feed all my plants by hand everyday. Definitly not fun. I have some questions for you cause u seem like the only other grower that do big grows with these.

First off, the picture u posted above looks great. I've never seen an auto look like that. I still cant tell where the main stem is lol. Can you show a pic of the plant at a younger age with the lst still on the plant. I've have lst before but it's usually around day 40 and I basically tie over 4 of the side branches in each direction if you understand. And How do you LST when they barely show sex. They are barely 6-7 inches tall. Please show =) Also what soil and nutes do you use.

Here is my list:
7 inch square pots 1.7 Gal
Foxfarm Ocean Forest
House & Garden Bio1 Component soil
House & Garden Multi Zen
House & Garden Budxl
House & Garden Drip Clean
General Hydroponics MaxiGrow
Great White Mycorrhizae (bout to switch to there liquid form called Orca)
Roots Excellurator (A must have in every person nutrient supply)
General Hydroponics RapidStart (I use this when I ran out of roots excellurator)
General Hydroponics FloralNectar Natural Sweetener

Thinking about switching my House & Garden Nutes to General Hydroponics FlouraNova Series.


This is basically how my grow goes:

He sent that Pm to me out of nowhere

 

[JM]

I understand... that was innapropriate on his part also... but I think you pissed him off calling hima a retard... one of this forum's objectives is to keep a nice enviorment for our memebers... no need for drama here... so lets kill it where it lies...

nice grows btw....

in regards to hours light and female ratio.... have a read:

Read about a third of it seems like they're talking a lot about feminized seeds. We're talking about regular seeds. And the Dutch Passion method they mentioned in there is just a theory. Hitman64 said if you have your seedlings under a lower amount of light you will get better female ratio and he cliam that it was a FACT. Which is completly untur. If that were true no one would be selling feminized seeds. and these days almost all the AF seedbanks are only selling feminized seeds. I hate it so much. I really like the Lowlife seedbank but almost all there seeds are feminized now. Luckily I got Easyryder when they still had it and bred my own seeds. I really want that purple Ak47 that they are selling on this site. looks amazing. Hope its not a big hype like the purple gems were. They showed pics of the most purple buds and I have yet to see one purple gem grow with purple buds.
