Lighting TAGs perpetual grow.

Tag bro great job brother they didnt flinch from the cut! Nicely done bro. And some love and :karmacloud: for the Mrs. and hope the cbd strain works a treat!
 
Thank You Jayar. But it is time for a reset. I dropped off the net but not my tent. As I mentioned before, I have started a 10 plant 5 strain auto grow. (trying to finish off a pound of bud for my first run of RSO) So I figured its time to introduce the girls. A little intro first. All 10 seeds dropped Sept 22nd and all were above the ground by the 24th. I have had no issues beyond size variation, as you will see. All grown in my own soil mix, 60% organic soil, 25% coco and 15% perlite. All being fed with General Hydroponics, general organics line ferts, with the exception of Bio Weed, which has been replaced with a different liquid kelp fert. All water used is reclaimed and bubbled rainwater. so here we go.

These are the World of Seeds Afghan Kush Ryder auto. All the same age 23in for the tall one, 18in in the middle and 12in on the right. The yellow pot is smaller because I was planning on crossing this AKR with a male ET Dragon, but as luck would have it, my ET's all popped female. next time maybe.

Now how about the rest.

ET Dragons are next. From the mind and mothership of GOAUTO at the Terrestrial Bean Co. A fun, quality plant that is a regular auto. I feel blessed to have been provided these genetics. I would like to point out that very soon you can get your very own ET Dragons over at the newly reopened autobeanstalk.com They have relaunched the site with new genetics, and will soon have ET Dragons, Cheesus Dragons and Triangle dragons.

ET's are coming along nicely. This is a great nite time vape, and easy to grow. Not large but the buzz is worth the work.

Again with the size difference. But the one on the right is in a smaller pot, again I had planned to cross an ET male with this one as well, but as we already know, no males from my ET's this grow. Also a very easy plant to grow. They really should call em autopilots instead of autoflowers.

And last but not least, a couple of single seed freebies from previous ALI Bongo orders.

A OO Seeds Sweet Soma auto and a Samsara El Alquimista auto.

The Sweet Soma is coming along slowly but the El Alquimista is a little disappointing. She just hasn't gained any height or bushiness and is the smallest auto I have ever grown. I will let her finish and see if this is a strain that I might have to try again.

Sorry, no pics tonight, just the rambling musings of a buzzed grower with a warm vaperizor and internet. I just came down from cleaning out all the bushy plants undercarriage so to speak. I remove most of the large fan leaves from the central stem and most of the small random growth at the base of the plant. So far it seems to help with lateral branch bud formation. and I've yet to have a mold issue in a state that busted the insurance industry with mold claims.

The AKR's are coming along nicely, with the middle girl gaining ground in the height race on the big girl. So I now have an ET Dragon and an AKR at 23", an AKR at 24"+, and 2 additional ET's at 16" on one side of the tent. And in the other half all the little girls who got bush trimmed. The EL Alquimista has gained a little size but not much. I am still reserving final decision for somewhere down the line. I had found some promising info about the strain but so far I am not growing the strain I expected. Sweet Soma is picking up in height and circumference and will soon be caught up to the Girl Scout Cookies and the bushy pheno AKR. This side of the tent averages about 12 to 14" high and looks like a tropical indica patch, short stature with dense foliage and all just the darkest green in color. The tent is also starting to have a skunky odor when opened.

Have a great new week. Be back soon.
 
Some observations as I have just come down from the tent. El Alquimista has finally achieved a little height and has surpassed the Sweet Soma in the bud dept. El Al is definitely a single main cola plant, with little tiny side branches, or rather the one I'm growing is at least. Sweets is just getting bushier and has only begun shooting some white pistils out in the last few days.

The 2 Girl Scout Cookies are budding up just fine. Both are between 12" and 14" in height and nice healthy green bushy plants. I will have to grow this in larger pots to see exactly what potential it has.

The Afghan Kush Ryders are also doing great. The 2 taller plants are done stretching it would appear and are beginning to add size to buds. They topped out 24 1/2" and 23" and really look good. The bushy pheno is doing just as well and has plenty of bud sites to work with and while it might not rival the output of the other 2, I'm sure it will be well worth the time spent.

And finally the ET Dragon update. All 3 are looking good and have stopped stretch. They have been building bud size and shooting pistils like crazy. There are even pistils that are turning red already, which is early but these plants do have a mind of their own. This is an easy strain to grow and with water and lots of light it just chugs along and makes candy.
 
It's friday which means picture day, we'll start with the Afghan Kush Ryders.

In the first pic it is easy to see the Difference in phenos and size. The tallest is 24 1/2", the bushy one is 13.5" and the second stretched pheno is 23.5".
 
And as usual, the ET Dragons are next.

11062015 032 (640x480).jpg


Again with the size difference. Tall one is 23.5 and the others are 16/17". but great looking plants none the less. Day 44 so a while to go yet, at least 3 weeks and maybe more.
