Got any pics or grow journals?
I wouldnt call it a grow journal i suppose it is but im a very very disorganised person and my minds very fragmented so im not the best at journals but i got some logs of my first ever auto here which is Automaria #1 from Paradise Seeds. They only seem to stock Automaria #2 now which they claim is a hybrid of Automaria #1.

This is a partial log of my 2nd Auto grow

I stopped updating here a few months back due to personal issues and then i lost alot of my pics of this 2nd grow and even the 3/4th. I also stopped taking note of what pot i put what seed into and lost track of what strains i have lol.......
I will try to keep better and more frequent logs here from now on. It helps me keep track of what im doing!
Heres some pics of what i beleive is "Auto Acid" but tbh it could be one of 3 strains lol. I think this ones almost done......

I've only ever tried Paradise Auto's before and i think they are amazing! Im very happy with all of the ones i did so far. The first one i did was last year but i bought the seeds wayy back in like 2008/2009 and it was Automaria #1.
It was an amazing plant.....i had started it off in the worst possable conditions......it was in a soil that was way too hot (thanks for teaching me that Muddy!) and i only had a little 20 watt halogen bulb(!!!!) to help with the growth when the sun went down. I had grown it for about 3 weeks in this little coco fibre puck with no nutes or anything and it was small and a little lanky but very green and healthy. I ended up with blood clots in my leg and both lungs and my mother looked after it for a week whilst i recovered in hospital. When i got back home i potted the plant into the soil which was too hot and it was grown for like another 3 weeks in crappy sunlight and 20watt halogen at night and then finaly i got a Prakasa 80watt(real consumption) LED and stuck it under that. She grew to over 30 inches over the period of a month or around that. I got a couple of ounces of dry bud from her and it was really sticky potent smoke and got me totaly wasted and i had been told this was meant to be a mild strain lol.
What confuses me about that first grow is how long it managed to keep growing before pre-flower/budding.......all the other attempts i've done so far with the exception of Pandora and Vertigo have turned out really small like 10 to 12 inches in height and preflowered in just a couple of weeks.........i can't remember if it was the 2nd Pandora or 1st Vertigo i did (see how stoned it got me i can't even remember what im smoking it's so good lol) but that grew to a couple of inches and then did NOTHING for weeks!! Then when it did start to grow again it was already pre-flowering and turned into a midget!
I think my pot size might have something to do with it but i only have a 15 inch by 21 inch (roughly) area to work with right now so small plants are a bonus for me although i will have to do more of them to compensate! I could fit 6 x 3 litre pots into my closet but only 2 x 6 litre pots.....although if i did use 2 x 6 litres i could also fit another 2 x 3 litres in beside them but then that would mean maybe the plants wont be the same heights and cause problems like stretching etc......i dunno.....i reckon 6 x 3 is the best for me as i get more variety of weed to sample and it will limit the plant size which is perfect for my small LED setup (im only using a Mars Hydro 300 watt (130 watt real consumption) LED panel.
Sorry about the novel but i was on a roll/rant lol.

That's pretty incredible that the maria overcame the conditions in the end and gave you that much smoke! Like yourself I have a limited space to work in(34"high X 16"deep X 54" long) I'll be running an 180real draw old mars and a 165 real draw ebay recommended light...cant wait to see what they can do!(I am waiting until summer craziness slows a bit first before firing up the setup). I'll be running larger pots with 4 females running at a time. I like the idea of smaller pots with a horde of different kinds, but I want to make the most out of the expensive seed as I can get, so I think 4 in a space like that in larger pots is gonna rock and plants should fill the space pretty good. For your space 6X3L sounds like the best option.
