Hi Beelu
I did not read the whole thread but i am growing the same, AM from DP and i wanna tell you about my experiences., things i tried, and what happened the last time i grewed them (grewed is that right ???, sorry my english is not perfekt). First thing i found out is, not to use small pots, for germing them, it seems they dont like small pots, and for sure they dont like too much Pot changing.
I ruined my first AM grow because of Pot sizes and some mistakes i probably made, so my biggest one only reached 37 cm (14.5 inches) the other 3 didnt reached the 30 cm mark (11.8 inches)
These 3 tiny plants was too long in a small pot cause someone in a german speaking forum gave me the advice to keep them in small pot for one or two more weeks, it would not matter, thats wrong.TOTALY WRONG!!!!!
Now i started with two big Pots, these two seeds gave me the biggest and nicest plants untill now, I used 2 (little bit smaller Pots) and these plants are not growing so fine as the ones in the big Pots. And one i tried to germ in coco but it died, I dont know why.
One of the plants had strange spots, but Tony (DP) said, it would not be a Prob and the plant is growing well, so i think its maybe a genetic thing.
I used a very very small dose of fertilizer after one week cause i mixed my soil with coco what means there are less nutes in the mixed soil, but even a 10 % of normal dose made me some signs of overfertilization, i think the AM dont need that much fert,
I use now a 250 CFL daylight lamp, thats enough, they dont need that much light in veg phase. I wrote that you will mix your light when the plants start to bloom, HPS and MH, i wouldnt do that, cause of the spectre (hope thats the right word (Spektrum)in blooming phase they need more warm light, like the Autumn sun, i think more red light or red spectre.
I used a 400 Watt hybrid Lamp and my other plants did very well only the AM`made me headaches, its a Sylvana HPS with more blue in it, they called it hybrid lamp here in Germany
I will bring my 4 plants outdoor, one is allready outside to see what happens, but then a cold weather front came and i hope that nothing will happens, i will tell you or show, how they are doing , i need to go outside and dig a hole in a few minutes but first need some coffee its 5.30 am here right now. I decided to put one of the real good looking ones in a huge Pot like 40 cm from one side to the other and the same height. And the other one i will put into the ground without a pot, just to see what does better. Only thing i am worry about is that i need to go to hospital for three weeks and if suddenly a heat wave comes,i will get Probs with that plant in the Pot. .... but i got me some of these watering thingys, "vacation watering system", and a ten Liter can i will use this should work...I dont believe in a heat wave, cause i am in Germany and all the last summers sucked also this one, bad weather and no sign of summer since 6 or maybe 8 weeks, but my plants i got allready some other Plants, bagseed and LAVA Clones, (GREAT PLANT BUT NOT TO GET ANYMORE I FEAR) outside are growing very well. Some clones are 5 foot 8 inches, I didnt know that clkones can get so high, mostly indika and the blooming stretch will be around 70-80 % if they do the same like the mothers.I think its a good mix of sun and rain, i had 4 Spots but i went out too early and 2 spots were overgrown after a week, without a chance to do something against it. (30-40 feet high trees) another place was a try with a growing bag, but rabbits or some other animals had dinner there, so i got now 2 place left, one guerilla style with 12 Plants IN the bush and 2 outside of it in the stinging nettles) 2 plants out of the bush but you cant see em, just put it into the ground were stinging nettles grows and this one does best cause it get the most sun from dusk till dawn. In the bush maybe 7 hours of sun, and one swamp tube i also tried out, but....that was just a try to see if it works. Dont work that good, was bagseed so no Prob,.
Back to the AM`s, the bigger the pot the better the plant and i guess it got a lot to do with the genetic of the AM. If you got luck you get some superautos if not maybe a good plant or if you do too much mistakes like me the first time, some tiny ones, but they taste very good and they are strong.Even the small ones.
Light is still off so i cant make Pics right now, but it should switch on in a few minutes, then you can see the differences between the plants.
I allways talk (write) too much, but i hope I could give you some hints, or help.

Day 46
@darkpat: bro many thanks for sharing ur grow experience. i am using 14 liter pots which i think r good enough and working fine so far. Also, i am currently suing 400WHPS and 150HPS both are HPS so no mixing of spectrum while bloom. earlier used 150MH + 250HPS for veg.
I am trying to upload a video on youtube to show you all. plants are looking nice and flowers are getting big everyday. today is day 46.
the one small plant in the pic is Northern Lights Auto, at day 17.
Thanks.

Hi Beelu,
OK that with the light was a misunderstanding from me, and please dont look too much for that english i am using, i try my best but, i am a bit drunk and realy outa practice, but I `ll try to write that you can understand it what i am trying to say.
The plants dont look like day 46, day 46 is week 6 and 4 days, they should be finished in a few days but i cant see no buds, i mean realy buds, big fat head buds, it looks more like they are still in veg or short time in blooming phase. I will try to upload some of my Autos from my winter grow, there are also threads here, where i asked my questions, these pics are from day ...around 50. Wait I need to search for them, hope
i will find em.
OK Pic 1. is my beatyfull Critical Jack, i had 3 of em, and this is around day 50-55 cant remember right now. The two others are Automazars but as i said they stayed so tu#iny and this was dissapointing, but the weed and turn was great, But 27 cm, is not realy what i was expecting. Must say that I made mistakes as i am not a Pro, i am still learning and getting better (hops#e so)
From my 7 AM seeds i had this time 2 died, one stays tiny, one grows...hmmm, so so la la, and 2 of em are great bushes what looks promissing and i hope they will get me a good harvest.
Maybe this is good that your plants had a longer veg phase so they can get taller and taller plants are biger yield. But what is possible after day 45, or 50 you can see on pic one and this is what a Pro might laugh about, but i was proud. Its a good strain, critical jack, had 3 of em and all were great.
I have to bring em out, the rest of my plants, its getting dangerous, my ex girl postet Pics in FB to see 4 everyone what shows my indoor thing, she is a bit crazy and like i said now my ex, but we got a kid together so....
Some borders you should never cross or even touch e#and she did it too often, but thats not the theme, . i WISH YOU THE BEST LUCK AND GOOD HARVEST/YIELD; AND Buds as big as ...listen to AC/DC big balls...just kidding, need to come to an end, getting drunk and writing stupiid stuff. So cheers,
Dark

I dont know much about late flowering of these, but i do know that many folks who have grown mazars have faced this late flowering. my plants are about 25"-29" tall. which is about 2ft and few inches. so i aint complaining and just waiting for the buds to form and mature. keeping fingers crossed.
. After how many days from seedling did u harvest? ur plants look awesome, really nice dense looking buds there. I did 7 seeds and 5 were successful but one on the way fell out of small pot cause of a mistake and cudnt recover. so i have 4 out of seven. lets see what i get out of these. i am hoping atleast 40gms minimum per plant.
wat kinda drink u like? i had black label yesterday.
best of luck with ur gf and cares for ur kid.
Thanks.

What are your temps? Looks like a bit of heat stress from the up-curled leaves...
