So I thought i would give this autoflower thing a shot. I started it out from seed 12/12 under 250w hps in a tent. Using FF Tiger and Big Bloom and bud candy. In FF soil.

Next seeds i will go 18/6 all the way through. At least i know that this batch is good i have heard alot of dissapointing stories on these guys. But mine are right on track!

I am almost 4 weeks in and growing bigger by the hour. I started out very light on the nutes and have worked up to about 3/4 strenth and think i will saty right there. These guys are pretty harty plants autos from what i have read do not respond well to nutes. But i have had no problems.

Looking foward to the finished product. It has been along time since i have had Nl used to be one of my favorites. Enjoy the pics first pics are from about a weeks ago will post some from last night!

Any questions comments feel free to post! thanks

So any suggestion? Anyone use root accelerators on autos? You figure it starts to flower early and roots are not fully developed.

Glad to see someone else growing these new NL autos. I have 3 going right now, 3 weeks in and are looking strong. I'm using sunshine soil and just started very light blue mountian organics nutes. I too am anxious to see these finish. I've grown autos for several years and really enjoy the fruits from these little girls.....

I hate people that get on threads and talk sh@#! Just because you can not get your NL autos to flower does not me i cant. I have been back and forth with oneinthechamber from the begging we were comaparing from the begining. And I also changed user name here is the link of the original post Hps Grow.

There was really no reason for you to get on here post crap like that. And if you look at the pics you can clearly tell that there is a little LST going on. If you have any questions or suggestion feel free just dont post crap on here please.

In post #5 you say the plants are two weeks old. Here you said they were a week. Big difference, thats twice the grow time and prob three times the size in the time period. Why did you post pics of four week old plants, then post more pics saying this "overnight" trying to give the impression that the plants grew that much overnight? Maybe your not good of keeping data. Maybe your trying hard to impress ppl. At any rate, its good that you went 12/12 from the start as it made the plants flower really fast. These plants dont function as AF and 12/12 seems to be the only way to get them flowering. So you did the right thing. They dont yield well at all, so getting them completed as fast as possible is a good thing.

Sorry if I came off rude. I just dont want ppl get the wrong impression on these strains. These strains have cost alot of growers time and money and its best if ppl undestand how the genetics of this plant work so they can deal with it as best as possible.

Good luck on your grow

Again read the post I did not say "overnight" i said that these were taking "last night" the latest pics. I posted the first pics on oneinthechambers thread at 3 weeks. And if you read my original post HPS GROW you will read that my bubblicious is at 2 weeks of flowering. This is why i only threw 1 seed in at 12/12 I was impatient I also posted later in the thread that it is at 2 weeks and was happy to see preflowers because of the problems with the autoflowers from nirvana. Also said next grow was jockhorror auto 18/6 all the way through (and will keep fingers crossed) take the time to read and you will see they are 4 weeks. I am not giving any impression i am sharing my grow. Follow along another month and i am starting JOCK will see how it goes!

Yep. Mine seem to be doing fine though, I believe as long as you keep to a steady light/dark cycle they will do as advertised. I have over 5 years of growing experience (all bag seeds grows up until now though) and I have got it mastered to a T. I hope to get around 4 ounces off of my four plants, about an ounce per plant, I will be very happy with that but no longer will I grow autoflowering strains from Nirvana.

I am going to finish out my seeds and on to something different. I love nirvana great prices awesome product I think they felt they had to keep up with everyone else with auto's and put it out to soon. My 1 seed is doing fine dont know about the other 9. Keeping fingers crossed.
My bubblicious femd from nirvana i am in love with they are awesome some fat buds good yields tasty and and great effects! My wife also has medical needs and it is one of her favorites. I do recomend this strain. Will post pics of bubblicious up to date now that it is out there. Was trying to keep it just NL auto but all good. ONE LOVE!

Thanks! I hope that the cha ching that i picked will help out even more.

Anyone use cha ching and notice a difference in same strain with and without? I dont expect a huge difference but thought i would give it a try on the clones and compare the two.

If you use or have used and like something else please let me know thanks guys!

The reason that they cost people money is because they dont do the research first. Autos are different from other strains. IF its a true auto she IT WILL show sex in 14-17 days, no matter what the light cycle is. 12/12, 18/6, 20/4, and 24/0 all four of these light cycles will cause a true AF to flower in the 2 week time period. The genetics i have always show sex in about 12 days i have yet to have one not flower in that time period.

If you are having to run this on 12/12 from seed its not a true 100% af and needs work. I can make a photo period plant non auto, flower under 12/12 from seed. i bet your growth has slowed since you went back to 18/16.

A 12/12 light cycle on a true auto will diminish your yield, i grow at 18/16 all spring and summer, and then fall into winter at 20/4 for heat purposes. These will set your best yields.
