Bubblelicious Autoflower! FIRST GROW

[mr2shim]

Yeah i been watching your grow. How long did it take for your bubble to start finally flowering? I'm on an 18/6 light schedule. And my plant won't be much bigger than yours even at its biggest because I'm going to restrict the growth of the plant by putting it in a smaller pot, i have space constraints.

um.. Probably last week it really started. The difference between last week and today is mind blowing. My growbags are 3 gal but they are 8" in diameter and 10" tall. I thought the bubble wasn't going to get this big but it surprised me. I only vegged it for 25 days.

Did you shift it to a 12/12 light schedule?

Yea I did yesterday.

 

[keysmachine]

Yea I did yesterday.

I'm still not even sure when exactly to transplant my plant into its final pot. maybe i should google it. I thought i'd have more time to think about the transplant but my bubblelicious is blowing up. i swear every time the lights go off for 6 hours and come back on it friggin is noticeably larger.

 

[mr2shim]

I transplanted after one full day of growth. I wouldn't advise it, I was rushing. I'd say a week or two of solid growth before transplant into final pot.

I got mine from nirvanna and that's not the first time i've heard about he autoflower bubblelicious not flowering unless put under 12/12. Although i've heard of some autoflowering and finishing by week 7. Its a toss up.. To tell you the honest truth i'm just going to go ahead at week 3 go 12/12 just because autoflowers just like regular plants grow outside to so i'm just mimicking nature. I think after my plant pops its 6th set of leaves i'm going to transfer into an 8 inch pot because i want to keep the plant small.

Well I have a very strong feeling they wont auto, as I bought 5 fem seeds from attitude a month back. Do you have any links to any bublecious thats has auto'ed? would love to see one! lol I carnt put to 12/12 as i have 9 other auto's in grow room but when time is ready Ill have to bag it for 12 hours to force flowering. Putting them in small pots and doing 12/12 will drasticaly reduce yeild, best just grow normally and pinch the tops to stunt its height or use lst, then either bag it or move to a dark room for 12 hours each day. best of luck!

Just transplanted into an 8" Terra cotta pot. I got the soil moist in the party cup and the plant just slid right out. plopped it very quickly probably within 3 seconds into the soil and covered up almost to the first set of leaves. I then watered with tap water About half the tap water i watered with was evaporated and the other half wasn't.. hopefully that won't be a problem. But i watered until it drained out of the soil. And cut the lights out as it was time for her to goto sleep.

Hopefully she'll survive i felt confident in the transfer. But this was my first time.

(reason i repotted was because the roots were creeping out the bottom of the cup.)

 

[keysmachine]

I dunno if this is going on or not but it looks like my bubblelicious has already started to preflower!

I'm seeing the hairy tendril like things come out of the bushiest part of the plant directly in the middle. I know what leaves look like and this doesn't look like even a pre leaf. I'll take pictures the best i can. When i get home from work. But wtf this auto bubble has started flowering at day 16?! can that happen?

 

[MarcusTweed]

Fingers crossed! My roadrunner showed its preflowers at day 16! and that has the same 60 day harvest like the bubblelicous has. looking foward to seeing these flower, you lucky bugger lol

 

[mr2shim]

Maybe you got some Nirvana auto seeds that actually auto. A LOT of the time they don't autoflower. Looks like you got ones that actually do.

Its looking more like leaves but not sure yet probably gonna wait to celebrate just yet. Aside. I haven't given any nutes yet and i'm going into day 17. You think i should start up the Grow FF nutes?

 

[keysmachine]

What's Up people I'm bringing this journal back.

First plant i killed off by accident. Second plant is a monster. with better lighting (still CFL's) I have wider spectrum both 2700K and 6500K lighting with 8 Bulbs total (4 of each) My second plant has boomed. I'm on the 2nd day of flowering. Plant is about 7" so far. thing has nearly doubled in size since day 1 flowering. (was about 4 inches)

This is DAY 21 total. If you rub the fatty stem and take a smell this bad boy reeks like some chronic. Hopefully SHE turns out to actually be a SHE. and not a HIM/SHIM

Thats coming along nicely.

I can confirm that this plant is a FEMALE!!!!!!!!!

i've confirmed TWO preflowers. She needs a watering but i want to put her on a tiger bloom nute regimen since it says to give nutes as soon as you see any signs of flowering. I just wanna wait until my water evaporates before administering.

I wish i could take a picture of the preflowers but none of my digital cameras can get in close enough with the MACRO setting to do so. So i'll have to wait until i have tons of pistils. The two confirmed preflowers have a single pistil emerging. The one on the 6th node is quote noticeable at a distance as well so i'll update with pictures in a few days once the pistils start forming some bud sites.

NOTE: this will be the 5th day of flowering once the lights go out.

Oh yeah and i just got my order of snow white seeds from nirvana NON autoflower. So i'm pretty happy to start that grow right after this one

 

[keysmachine]

So the one preflower i've confirmed has two pistils coming out of it. I assume i'll see more later? lol or maybe they're forming in places that i can't notice on the plant elsewhere. hopefully i have more than 1 flower on this lady lol

Any idea when i'll start seeing more preflowers?

Congratulations on a girl! Soon the buds shall come, lol.

but when i don't see any signs of bud development or do more and more pistils start coming out of the preflower?

 

[lince]

More pistils will grow like the ones she has right now and it depends on the plant when and how many, but soon, maybe couple of days, you will see more and more of then growing and all those pistils will make the buds But be patient, it doesn't happen in one day.

awesome I got some Snow White seeds to grow after this one is finished. So I'm patiently waiting for some serious bud development tonight will be day 6 of flower.

 

[lince]

Well, the plants take around 2 months to flower so you better take a seat and enjoy the flowering or find a way/place to start growing the snow white sooner I also can't wait that long for a plant to be harvested, that's why I'm trying to start at least one new seed every month and a half.
