Cool. My 2 dogs go nut's when I walk them in this weather. They seem to love it. What do you mean by " termo in the jar" by the way?

took me a minute to read all the posts I missed. Glad to see the thread is back and running. This run we are switching from the lucas method to what GW Pharmacies use in there massive warehouse. Took cuttings off all the mothers that grew while we all went on holiday. We will put those little bad ass's into full on veg once they get legs aka roots aka laces.
Good Luck to all of you and your grows in 2014.

looks a bit over watered imo with the droopy leaves. Other than that with quality of the pic I can't see anything else.
I took another look, is your ph between 5.5 and 6.2? And is that nute burn meaning are the leaves looking burnt like little yellow spots?
Just saw your ph, I would try to keep the ph around 5.5.

hahahaha the drawer of everything... is your like a tardis aswell as mine hahahahaha....
for starters your a dark horse you... thats a fantastic example of a cannabis plant, great genetics in her, she`s topped yeah? and what day of flower in her first week by the looks of it, but i could be off there i`d start the flower nutes at a low dase now and work them up over the next few weeks...
what was your soil by the way, its obviously got plenty of nitrogen in it shes as green as you can get.. well done gd....

nightmare situation here the other day.. herself was haveing a bath and managed to slip while turning on the cold tap, and pulled the head of the tap with the insert out of the tap houseing and lets just say the water went everywhere... took me about 5 mins to put the insert back in as the threads were knackered (got her to put her thumb in the tap meanwhile) got it together and sorted, so the water had ran down the wall and exploded a socket downstairs while i was fixing that, got down removed socket and allowed water out, removed socket and dried as best i could, but couldn`t get power back on as there was water in the conduit... nightmare... had to put in new cable and change socket the next day, then call a sparkie to change the mcb as that had sparked 4/5 times and i didn`t trust it after that amount of fireing...
all done now but the bathroom roof will have to be replastered and same with kitchen ceiling, paint just won`t cover it...

Cheers md. Yeah.....she was a bit overwatered and dropy but looking good now. From what I have read here on RIU the 2 common theme's with this strain are sensitivity to over/under water and nutes. Should have read up a bit more on this strain first. I was just excited to try an auto and I wanted seed delivered to my old addy before I moved. On the plus side, trying to find info led me to this forum so all good in the end. Went searching for some PH down in a local petshop but they had none. Place was a shitehole. Poor feckin animals man.
Yes ae86 she was topped. Read a bit on fimming and so went down that route. Looking good so far. The soil is a home brew of perlite, 3 year old organic compost, regular compost and a secret ingredient.....muhahahaha. So it should be great or really crap.
I am confused about flowering on auto's. It has been showing hairs since about day 7 of veg. According to the seedbank, flowering is meant to "start" around day 25. The smell at the mo is of..well ..."green" I suppose. Is there an official time for when she is in flower and how do I judge that? There is a slight purpling on fan stems too.
Thanks for your input so far md and ae86. It takes the stress off.

so after all that comotion, its re-pot tomorrow for the seedlings, only into pint sized pots but its a repot, and i`ll start to deal with this condensation problem, it has returned and sure was always going to considering its a bare concrete shed 50`s style, so without any cash to spend on kingspan and no work so i can`t nick it hahahaha or any other real remedy all i can do is get some salt out there to absorb the moisture for now, and have had great success before with salt but that was in much smaller grow spots...
so idea for now is find a couple of small burlap or likewise sacks, fill with salt and allow to gather the water, great too as to regenerate them all you do is dry them out not like the one use sachet`s you can get...

That's a serious downer. Water and electricity.....shudder......my worst phobia. Fair play on getting the sparkie in though. I wired an MCB in my first grow shed. Thought I was great. Turns out I had wired it all from the cooker circuit instead of the socket line. Not sure about the physic's of it all but basically I think it meant that my jumpers couldnt even "see" the phase of the power going through so they never would have tripped. Lucky escape man.
Shame about the 2 ceilings. Didnt you say you were going to be doing fuck all kitchen renovations this time? Guess you werent touching wood at the time.

well for me when they start to show hairs all over the flowering heads is flower, never grow an auto but i`m sure there about the same, the thing with autos is they want to flower from the start hence the tile auto, but once they get to her size there well and truely "ready" for flowering, with your soil being so good in nitrogen and being organic then maybe no feed just yet either, from the picture the heads have begun to turn that paler green as you would get in the first week of flower so thats why i reckoned a feed but jst tought it was bag compost...
smell can come at any stage but once flowering starts they normally begin to stink, if you want a smell of her give her a slight shake with the flat of your hand and smell...
