Indoor Meef's 2x AutoUltimate attempt

[millertm]

That's good information. I looked at Grand master line and below, local grow store had complete gallons for $488 US. I looked at feed calculator and said hell no. My local grow store guys tell me when they complete it's , but for their patients it's AN for yeild. I'm a 4x4 recreational personal guy so 0.7 GPW is fine, it fact it was far too much, so last run was 2 sours, one cinex, and SLH. One sour was pushed few weeks which I posted above.

Small one on right was a stunted SLH due to PH issues gave up 142g dry of smoke, middle sour 168g, Cinex was stopped at 182g, still drying last sour.

Clone's of all three strains started on January 2, cut March 19th. Good pull for under 80 days. But, Auto's are a different beast.

Small leaf mass, very short veg time frame. I've seen yours and others here and was blow away at size and 4 zip pulls. I'm more of 2 week veg, cut main stem short and have most sites at same height guy. Not so easy on or with autos.

So, here are my auto issues. 1st, I use root shooters in small pot 4x4 in, up pot at about week to #3, or after my auto AK is showing root bound stress I might use #5's now.

I top at 4th node a day or so into new pot to get bushy plant.

Cheese is photo but this is my ideal shape I'm striving for.

Auto's do this though.

To small for my liking. I'm hoping that it's not all AN nutes that make a difference.

How do you set your veg and shaping up on limited auto time frame. Thanks.

Cheers

Ideal environment, LST when stretch starts usually, but mostly I believe it's due to the nutrients. Like I said, when my friend switched from organic to AN, his plants more than doubled in size/yield. You could try it on yours maybe. Not switch out all of your nutrients, but switch over to AN Sensi base nutrients. Just an idea.

Good advice, I believe that I have room to grow with . AN is still on the table. Powers, in grams, all in liter format, crazy amounts of nutes compared to . But my local grow store guys only use AN. Therefore, I'm sure it's a great choice. LST'ing is not my style yet but I've seen what it will do for yield. My issue is bugs or other pests. LST'ing will reduce leaf mass in veg and if you have any issues (I seem to always have one or two) your down in size and yield fast. I like to keep as much leaf mass as possible, plants will self cull useless leafs. My AK is killing a #3 every other day and I'm feeding every watering. She is at 59 days up, breeder states 65 days from seed to harvest. I'll push a few more weeks, I'll start water only next feeding and go another 2 weeks till chop. Thanks for your information on how you grow.

Cheers

LST is not for everyone. I mainly do it for an even canopy and yield. This time around I'm letting the girls go all natural to see what happens.
