Mephisto Genetics Mephisto Sour Crack Autoflower 2nd run, and Photoperiod friends.

[IraqJack]

Just started this new run on November 6th since my current grow is coming to a close. The main focus will be on my 2nd run of Mephisto's Sour Crack. I will also be growing out x3 of Mephisto's Crackberry Regular photoperiod seeds, x2 Barney's Farm Cookies Kush Fem photoperiod, x3 Heavyweight Seeds Strawberry Cheesecake Fem photoperiod, and 1 Humboldt Seed Organization Bubba's Gift Fem photoperiod.

The Sour Crack will be growing in my seedling growing space which is a 3'x3'x6' closet under one Galaxyhydro 300w LED for 1st two weeks, then 2 300w led's until completion. I have (x2) 3.5'x3.5'x6.5' grow tents for the photoperiod plants.

Tent A (Veg/Flower): (x2) 300w Galaxyhydro LED's

Tent B (Flower): (x4) 300w Galaxyhydro LED's

I plan on starting a journal in the Photoperiod thread to journal the other strains, and I will be using the Mainlining training technique on half of my photoperiod plants as an experiment to see how much additional time it adds to the veg cycle, and compare that method to LST and super cropping the other plants I have going.

As far as the Sour Crack goes I will be only using LST, maybe some minor supercropping, but just pinching not bending any stalks. I will be using soft ties and a modified peony cage to tie down branches and spread out the branches to even the canopy and get maximum light penetration.

Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect Coco A&B Grow/Bloom, Advanced Nutrients Voodoo Juice, Advanced Nutrients Sensizym, General Hydroponics CaliMagic, Dynagro Protekt, Advanced Nutrients Big Bud, Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy, and Advanced Nutrients Flawless Finish.

So since this Sour Crack is the last Autoflower seed that I have I'm looking for any suggestions on what I should grow out next for Auto's? These are what I have been considering so far:

1. Mephisto Genetics HBBSC, Toof Decay
2. Heavyweight Seeds Auto Fruit Punch, Auto Fast & Vast
3. Dutch Passion Auto Ultimate, Auto Blueberry
4. Fast Buds Auto LSD-25, Auto Crystal Meth, Auto Green Crack

Tang's DP grows have me interested in trying them out, seen great reviews on the Fast & Vast, and just recently started looking at Fast Buds line.

What should I get? Would be purchasing either a 5-10 pack either December 1st or Jan 1st. Any suggestions from those experienced in these strains would be great. Looking for potency above all, but would like a above average yielder. Looking to get 3-4 oz in 3-5 gallon pots, Coco medium, same LED's, same nute's etc.

Hey @IraqJack your exact setup is what I will be doing for my first grow, galaxyhydro 300w, coco, in a 3x3! I'll be here for the entire ride man! Your 15 day old SC is looking spot on too. Honestly anyone of those strains would be nice, I think fast buds or dutch passion would be the route go tho ! Have you seen @elsamurai fast buds LSD grow? It'll make you want to grow it lol.
How do you like the galaxyhydro ?

I'm going to start flushing my Crackberry Kush reg, a photoperiod freebie I received with my original order that has been flowering 7 weeks. If I didn't need the space for my upcoming plants I'd let it go a week, maybe even 2 more weeks longer. I will post some photo's of the Crackberry seedlings I have going now, one has some funky leaf mutation going on, and the other 2 are looking good, distinctively different leaf formations.

I screwed up and am short on coco and am having to wait until the 1st to order more, which would have been fine if all my seedlings weren't growing exceedingly well. I have 5 more seedlings to transplant, and only enough coco for a 2 gal pot lol. Huge error, and it's looking like these seedling may spend closer to 4 weeks in solo cups then the 3 weeks I was intending, AND I would say all 5 could be transplanted now because they're growing ahead of schedule which in all other cases this would be great. Lesson learned.
