Thanks for the words and the interest guys. It's a lot of fun to grow canna, but when I can share it with the nice people at AFN all the better!

Answering your question goauto6 the jars are about 14cm tall. I didn't stack the goods tight, rather leaving them with plenty of air space in between the buds, like the protocol requires :) I just opened the jars to take a sniff and burp, and the smell is a bit more sweet than before, kind of vanilla ish, with blueberry lemon, and some dirt mixed in with a bit of mint.

Ghabi ;) your garden looks great by any growers standards. You have two different phenotypes on the NLH right? The younger one seems to pull a lot more from the NL (indica) part of the strain. I say this partly because of the leafs finger's shape. The JF5 and the WW look tremendous. :thumbs: The autos look like they could use more hours of sun (?) I was a bit surprised by the size of the apical stems and space between the nodes, specially with your TD. My experience with Sweet Seeds is with Mohan Ram, and it seems like they have a somewhat weaker or more sensible strains. Maybe your soil is too hot for them. Are you using energizers, like kelp or humics? I find it helps tremendously on new seedlings.

Astro I was pretty amazed at how fast this autoflowering strains are! My first aBB showed sex at day 40 something... This ones after 2 or 3 weeks were showing pistils everywhere! For indoor growing I'll be on from December to March. Maybe I'll get a couple of CFLs and try a window sill grow :D

I wanted to have planted a Think Different already, but I'm going on vacation to the island for about 10 days, and then I'm taking mrs on a romantic trip to celebrate our wedding anniversary, so I thought it'd be safer to plant her when I get back. I've allready bought a 30L pot for TD :D cause I'm going to squize the hell out of her! :howdy:

I've prepared my garden to be away for about 16 days. I've mounted an automatic irrigation system (by Gardena) that'll sprinkle every night for about 3m. Since there'll be no nutes I've topped the pots with some more AllMix soil that is already treated, so hopefully it will be enough to keep them growing. Otherwise I'm not worried with water anymore.

Hey hugo, tried to rep you for the nl5xh but I gotta spread the love first.
She's going to take over your house soon, what a beast. Well grown mate :clap:
 
So I'm away on vacations :thumbs: and the plants have been alone for 1 day! Damn!!! (you know the feeling?) I don't know how I'm going to get through this 10 days! Ahahah! serious though!

I've already checked the meteo to see if the auto-schedule I programmed was ok. It looks ok... nothing much I can do now! Re-thought about it a million times! Next time I think I'll install a web camera! ;)

EDIT: and some Auto-Contraption to feed the plants from far away!
 
thats a tuff one the view your lookin at in the picture looks preaty sweet
 
more vacation pics so i can practice being on vacate
 
Hugo--what a great plan for irrigation and nutes. Your efficiency is amazing. Now, for us landlocked members living in dismally exotic locations (mostly in the US):
Give us island photos to salivate upon and lots of Portuguese ladies--make that all beautiful woman and throw in a fish or two for the anglers. :drool:
 
:) thanks... I don't think it's that great, but it was the best I could think at the time. The soil add already compacted down a few centimeters so I thought about killing two problems with one solution. That way I'll give the plants more room for newer roots and I'll provide some needed nutes while I'm away. Will see how it works when I get back.

I'm so sorry to disapoint you but I'm on vacation with the wife and family... I'm not going around to shoot pics at beautiful womans lol!!! I'd get my ass kicked in no time! My wife can lift and keep (for undetermined amount of time) any of her feet at my head's height without blinking an eye! And I'm tall :)
:crying:

Most of the food we have around here is sea-food, as it is cheaper than fish or meat... Oysters, prawns, crabs and alikes! :) but occasionally there's a catch here and there. If its any good I'll shoot it and post it! :)

No, disappointment--the overriding intent was purely humor. Great looking proud banner holding beauty. Have fun.
