Okay folks,

Asked this question in another thread and it started a ruckus:



I've been trying like hell not to sledge Stich -- BUT! :no:Ordered some of his beans and got them okay. Problem is:
I got a seriously small little tent (just grow a plant or two for myself). I can cram maybe three fifteen inch plants in there. Started two of Stitch's duck's foot autos.
:cuss:They ain't autos at all!!
75 days in and they hit the led and no sign of flowering. Finished a Diesel Ryder next to them and it's drying right now. Anyhow, cut the duck's foots down and pitched them -- disgusted! Popped two of his auto blueberries now and this is the point of this rant -- has anyone grown it? Am I in for another wasted two and a half months? Sure, I don't toke much, but I don't wanna go dry either. Thanks to this caper I'm gonna be dry a while (the Diesel Ryder ain't gonna go that far...) Help, you guys, any feedback will be appreciated.



Anyhow, a member suggested I "grow them out and we'll all know!" ...and that seems fair enough. Gonna pop some 'Different Ryders' (my cross of TD and DR) in case I'm left holding the bag on this one too.

Light is the TopLed 150W green reflector units, substrate is Canna coco and coarse perlite, nutes are my own commercial bioponic mixture.

Pics are of
the tent -- small sucker ain't it? then the auto blueberries and his two duck's foot 'autos' that I pitched, I'll try updating regularly but, damn, between this old buggy PC and my work schedule, y'all are gonna have to be patient sometimes--

you can put 15 of the bb autos in there because chances are they will finish as 3 inch budsicles

sorry , thats what happened to the ones i grew

peace
 
I would say if it's a must to have autos, then I would not start anything by stitch for now.......

Oh crap! Well I started this thing so I'll go through with it and "we'll all know!" PS -- glad ya stickin' around man.

Yeah man, that's becoming a depressingly common assertion. Lucky I got some of my own beans. I'll wet them in the next few days and get some insurance in there!

Cheers y'all.
 
What light cycle are you using?
If they don't flower by 30 days, hit em with 12/12 so you don't run dry.
You should definitely know within 30 days whether they're auto's or not.

Yeah, I could've done that with those duck's foots but I didn't want the Diesel Ryder I was finishing to suffer, you know, give up good time after a bad cause? They'd outgrown the tent by then too. Seriously don't wanna change from my standard 20/4, seems to work well for any true autos, and it occasionally lets me babysit my buddy's loose ends photos in there for a few weeks.

:rofl:
Well those things are at day nine so we'll see soon enough but, tell ya the truth, even that wouldn't bug me as much as seventy-five days wasted on weird, counterfeit autos.
 
Howdy folks,

The boring bits: EC 0.8, pH 5.8, blueberries at day 13.

Two new arrivals -- Different Ryders just up. Last pic is the from grow before last, a Different Ryder at day 62. Also waiting on White Moscow to pop any day.
