Photoperiod Bud's Shed - First Test Grow

[Bud Wiser UK]

Thanks @Wile e Peyote ... yeah, they do reveg them, but that's after they've flowered, not during!

I've traced it back to last Thursday night .. temp readings for overnight were unusually high and I couldn't work out why .. now I know.
So that means the plants will have had a week on 12/12, then 4/5 days back on 24/0, then back to 12/12 again ... that should confuse 'em!

I think that what'll happen is the plants will suffer some shock and be delayed by about a week as their internal chemistry changes back again, and they'll probably hermie.
However, I'm expecting them to hermie anyway (poor genetics) so no surprises there.
I'd better sharpen my scissors then for some trans-gender surgery ...

Now, if only I'd been growing Autos in there .. hmmm. A feather in the cap for the Autos then, methinks ... timer-proof!!

Re-vegging.. yeah gonna cost you time but the plants are going to be fine. The nugs are probably going to look a bit oddly shaped but will be fine apart from growing in all directions.

The way I approach it is simple: In winter I can grow photos and in summer I can grow autos. I figure can grow two photo batches each year (one at the start of the natural lightcycle going below 13hrs and one during) but if your shed is light proof you could do left side photos, right side autos

Hey need some auto seeds?

Thanks @Druid dude ... have some 'rep' for that

Auto seeds? .. I've got a fridge-full..! Got some DP Brooklyn's, Daiquiri's and Colorado's just waiting, and some GHS King's Kush and Big Bang. Can't wait.
I'll be doing both autos and photos outdoors this summer, same as last year ... I'm just testing the growroom out with these photo seeds, and they're not exactly from quality stock either, more like an 'accidental' breeding program from last year! I'm expecting them to hermie anyway .. that'll be another test of my patience! I'll start a bunch of autos off under lights around early May-time then put them into the greenhouse, so they'll be done end of July-ish. I'll also do some photos and do some major tailoring .. my Super Skunk last year grew out of control and filled the greenhouse, turning me into a nervous wreck!

100% ro only just bought it just doing my first bubble buckets with it (had several grows with dwc just not with ro water) think it cost me £170 imported from usa

when i started using R/O it gave my plants cal deficiency but im on a well.. i stopped using it.. i guess if your on city water its good idea

Oh for goodness sake, really? Bloody reverse-osmosis water now. My secret garden enclave already looks like a Monsanto factory..!
Jeez ... what with all the soil and Isopropyl deliveries, the Columbians are on the phone..!

Which brings me nicely onto .... QWISO..!!
Hey, I was bored, ok?

That was the trim from my auto grow this summer, all pure trim, no leaf or other shit. Took nearly 3 litres of Iso and the same number of 2-litre jars ... froze my tits off in the greenhouse making this.
Very nice tho' .. a mix of about 10 varieties so nicely 'balanced' with the 'high'.
However, I did love the result and got the bug, so went into further production ... onto the super skunk..!!

Until ...

8.3 grammes off half the super-skunk trim.
Try sticking that on your toast in the morning.
Goodbye afternoon. Or for some, goodbye.

Not as smooth as the 'auto' oil, but strong as hell and very hash-tasting.

I'm currently looking up turkey recipes that involve hash-oil.
Knock the family out from lunchtime onwards. That's the plan.

Devious Bud

mmm mmmmm looks tasty!!

Hey @Powerful14 ... didn't I read somewhere on Live Stoner's that something had happened to Derek's Dream-factory?
I'm sure it was your good self that mentioned it ...
I PM'd Derek, but had no response yet ... can you shed any light?

i gotta say man that shed is impressive.. i may need some pointers from u i am going to build something similar inside my "growrage" maybe a 4x6 sealed room inside that should be lots ive got 12' to the trusses so lots of room that way.. id like to set it up with full automated ventilation and a/c for the summertime also..
but first i need to finish the building...
