Update:
White LSD Auto germinated 2 days ago. Growing quicker compared to AK47 Auto and Bubblegum Auto.

Hopefully this one will make it to harvest. Attaching picture from Day 2.

Will keep you guys updated. Also @indysouthsativa mate are you using any nutes/fertilizers for your grow?

Looks great! Where did you get your seeds from and whats in your soil? I am still contemplating if I should order seeds or use the ones I have(bag seeds) for a few more times and learn from it. Whats your experience with sativa, How much time should it take if done indoors? Can I switch to flower faster for faster yeild?

:confused:
Is the harvest this low for feminized as well? Or is it because its auto?[/QUOT

Autos yield less when comparing to Photos due to fixed flowering cycle.
This one is grown on harsh Indian weather under direct sun and rain from the seedling.8-)
And yet some Autos yield good but the growing condition and genetics matters.
That’s why I have ordered Moby Dick XXL auto from Dinafem(choosen by commercial growers for heavy yield) and Gorilla Glue Auto from Fast buds for my next grow.

Good Work on germinating her
@rollincuzimlow :clap:

Buddy I grow organically by mixing every organic components(vermicompost, coco, wood ash, bone and fish meal, neem cake, Epsom salt and Dolomite lime for Ph) in the mix before germinating the seed.
After germination I use only water till the harvest.:mrgreen:

Gona start Auto Somango ad Auto Sweet tooth after harvesting Sourdiesel Auto in a week.
Hope will harvest with you this time!!! bongsmilie

Thanks bud! Ordered seeds from msnl; they ship internationally.

Soil contains coco, perlite, vermiculite, and some shiny stuff that I don't know the name of. Bought this soil as a ready made potting mix from a nearby gardening supplies store. However adding some organic fertilizer to it works wonders! :p

Ordering seeds is a good idea if you are seriously planning on growing, since most Indian land-races (bag-seeds) will require 6-8 months to flower and they aren't exactly the most stable/pest resistant varieties. I have tried growing land-race seeds in the past, but they never survived till flowering stage. :wall:

For an indoor grow and also since we are newbies, I'd suggest you go for Auto-flowering seeds, since they are not photo-period sensitive and are much faster in terms of yields with less hassle.:weed:

Cheers! Happy growing :leaf:

Thanks for your reply. Yes going to order but I think I will grow the mango strain(mysore mango) available just to see how it is if grown properly. What is your take on uninterrupted darkness during flowering? I am pretty sure thats hard to manage without those sophisticated grow boxes.

If you wana smoke ur own herb then stop wasting time on landraces. You can’t force flower a land race that easily, it will take a hell lot of vegging period before preflowring.
And dinafem ships here? Or you guys trying littlegoa?
Little goa is a shit. Have bought a couple of bongs and accessories there. It’s not the place for seeds.

Try reputed seed banks like attitude, seedsman or the one I have inboxed you.

Sour diesel auto at day 62 ... Will check for Trichomes after a week and gona harvest at 30% amber Trichomes.F5625BE9-8FD1-468F-85B3-38FEC5BCDB5C.jpegMight have done even better in terms of height in indoor or under greeen house. Harsh outdoor Indian weather stress these lil gals too much.

Took her down to de garden and none suspects anything. Stealthy as fuck.bongsmilie

Ok boss. Let me order it, your soil mix guide is also helpful, thanks!

That northern light auto, if I grow it outside nobody would even notice it, great strain. I guess its better to let monsoon pass away and then plant it. Even my resilient tomatoes are catching diseases because of excessive rain.

Thank you!

Even I shall be sticking to organic, since the potting mix I use already contains some slow release nutrients. Don't want to risk burning plants with too much fertilizer. Also I tested the Ph on my soil and it is showing up as close to 7, do you think this is OK? or shall I do something to bring it closer to 6.5/6?

Nice to hear you're on a streak! will inbox you. I'm hopeful we'll be harvesting together this time! :grin:

Now that's some baller stuff! How about the smell? does it get very strong during flowering?

Asking since I will be having the plant indoors, hope it is not going to skunk up the whole place :p

You can practice sprouting seeds and getting them into vegetation stage with bag seeds. But otherwise as @indysouthsativa has suggested, you're better off growing good quality genetics.

Place a small order with some reputed seedbank, some of them give a lot of freebies so that's an added benefit.

I have never been successful in growing breeds that depend on light/dark cycle for inducing flowering in my limited space, as it is very difficult to have complete darkness indoors, even small disturbance in the light cycle messes things up and the plant would be stuck in vegetation forever seemingly.

Day 3 Update: White LSD Auto
Growing strong, Yesterday I added a 24 Watt LED COB panel (6500K) at about 8 inches height.

So 2 X 27 Watt CFL (6500K) and 1 X 24 Watt LED COB, brings up total light output to about 1400 lux/Sq.ft which seems sufficient for a single plant. :leaf:

Ph around 6 to 7 would be fine. To be frank i threw the Ph meter Yr back when i shifted to organics. From my learning Cannabis is a resilient plant and it grows good until it is under fed or over fed.

Now that's some baller stuff! How about the smell? does it get very strong during flowering?

Since i have done all my grows and harvest outdoor, ive never worried about smell. But sure it will stink if you dont have enough ventilation for your indoor space.
Hope you dont have to worry about that for a single plant.

Northern light auto started to show pre flower at second week!!!:wall:

This is also gona be a dwarf :cuss:View attachment 4150694
Hey bro, no shit those are pistils, but 2 weeks is a bit too soon even for an auto-flower :???:. Probably down to the genetics, leaning more towards ruderalis.

Also I think growing autos indoors is more preferable because of the fact that they can use 20-24 hours lighting to grow bigger in the limited time they have. But your Northern Light looks decently sized for a 2 weeks old plant, so won't be much of a difference if grown indoors.

My White LSD is coming along nicely AWSD-D5.jpeg

I have been losing some sleep over buying a decent full spectrum LED Light as my current set-up is fine for a seedling but I doubt if it is going to be sufficient for start to finish. :confused:

But not sure if it is worth investing 6-7K in some blurple LEDs, Another option I have is to buy some more CFLs or locally available LED panels and Macgyver that shit to increase light output for Veg and flowering. I know you don't grow indoor but would still love to hear your thoughts on this.

Once the lighting situation is finalized I am going to pop another AK-47 auto.

@sp007x what's up dude?

The more Ruderalis in the gene then it’s quick flowering time and dwarf plant. Which results in lesser yield compared to other autos.
Had a trial hit bongsmilie on my NL buds which in the process of curing yesterday. Damn man it gave quick body buzz with a mild head high :sleep:.Gona cure her for a month to get the flavour:weed:
Autos are no less competitive to photos.:eyesmoke:

But like you said I also personally feel that some autos are ment be grown indoor. Can be done outdoor but not in our Indian climatic condition.
That’s why I’m trying different breeders each time to find which one suites our outdoor. Trying fastbuds and dinafem this time, hope they give a better yield comparing to nirvana and others.:leaf:

Buddy regarding lighting your are asking wrong question to the wrong guy:mrgreen:. Never turned a page when it comes to indoor grow:lol:.
