I love the way my Fast & Vast are growing! My friend says they smell like poop LOL

I'm constantly doubting my grow due to the smaller plants in the front, my canopy is all over the place and I stopped nutes maybe too early.

But I guess they are doing alright for my first grow and I keep telling my self it's like a stadium grow lol 20160211_192604.jpg

Loss the autos and you will be much happier with your results. You can go 12/12 from seed if you only have one space to work with.

When you think they're done..... give them another week then harvest.
F&V are surprising for auto's I got 3.5 oz's from 1 and the rest weren't shabby either.

I do agree, you loose some potency with the addition of rudderalis genes.

I'll be ordering a strain that can get up to 25% thc soon :)

Potency smotency!! All the strains I picked are rated at about 17% to 19% which from my test smoke on some larf its more then enough for me. Most are going for the psychoactive effects or CBD healing.. I wanted the hard core stoned couch locking brain is shut off effects!

I have a hyper active thought process that never stops! Besides gaming there isn't much I can do ...and even then I get uber angry and short fuse while gaming.

I think most people I've seen so far have some small ass little autos barely a foot or 2 in height on the majority of the grows I see on here. Mine are in 5 gallons with the skunks all 3 feet in height and my Skunk at over 4 feet. I have 4 different strains to try once I'm done.

I have some photos but I'll mess with those once I'm ready to clone. I only have the 1 tent setup now and autos do better in harsher environments like in my garage...lol

I don't really understand running autos indoors unless you are not paying for electricity. I do see applications for growing outdoors though. Particularly the more north you go from the Equator. Ruderalis do come from the Northern hemisphere though.
12/12 is a great way of growing if you can put out numbers and not bother.... from the experience I have had doing it anyway.

Quicker time to harvest, 52 degrees fahrenheit inside my tent in the garage, only need/way to care for them is LSTing since I'm lazy somewhat :eyesmoke: and being able to perpetually grow everything under one lamp... Veg and flowering.

Seemed like a no brainer till I can expand, learn more about the hands on part of growing, receive some clones from my friend and weather gets warmer.

I understand it would cost less to run a 12/12 cycle but I figure a few zips will offset me paying for some crappy weed I get from my dealer and save by growing my own.

Thats one thing I'm trying to do first and foremost! Finally after 12 years of smoking I've decided to get my card and start growing my own.

Thats another thing...knowing what I'm truely smoking on is a major plus! My plug I've been using the past couple years doesn't have a clue what strain he gets... Most classification I would get is "This shit is fire!"..... Umm alright then!

Gods gift is something he did know the name of and thats been some of the best smoke I have had in my entire life!

I grow autos on every grow indoors,I like watching how fast things developed with them while my photos veg, when the autos finish then I flip my lights, gives me something to smoke on while my photos finish up, I tried the vast and fast, definately the most potent auto I've done, but it tasted very perfumey,not saying I won't do those again, but I like a more fruity tasting weed, I might try their fruit punch

I'm not for the autos... Not worth it to me. Clones are so much faster and produce better. If your running a lot of wattage in veg probably works fine but for me it was pretty laughable. They need to use more power to produce and produce less still... Just not for me

Maybe.outside they would do better for me.

From all over the internet it has been my understanding autos will be ready to harvest a few weeks faster. Weeks? Weeks. That won't do for a single tent on my first grow. I want bud and I need it fast.

Consensus and even growing my self vs other grows I'm watching and mine are looking much closer to harvest. While I'll be finshed drying and curing they will just be cutting theirs down. That works for me with not having to worry about a veg tent for now.

Not trying to say autos are better but for what my needs are ...they win over a photoperiod. I've also asked about ending a veg sooner to start the flower and that would of reduced my yields with photoperiods drastically a few growers told me.

Mine only vegged for 30 days till my plants started flowering.

I ran 5 of the fruit punch. Big resin, big weight, big stretch (2.5-3x), and 8 weeks from pistils they are in the window. Good funky fruity smell. Had an old school funk taste. Good hitting sativa leaning plants.

On another note, we've got roots!image.jpegI've learned my mistakes with the bubble cloner, and will have some more Fireball to run :weed:

Yea, I have never seen an auto that impressed me...but if thats what you wanna grow, by all means, do your thing big pimpin'

Got a pretty good collection of seasoned growers in this thread...all saying the same thing...might be worth a try at least once, and compare results. Order a pack...any strain really, from breeders boutique. Give it a run...be willing to bet ya the quality will stomp all over any of the autoflowering stuff.

but what do we know ;)

That's what I would prefer by far. I just had everything other than the tote. Now that I know about adding hydrogen peroxide to keep everything clean, and raise the water level to less than 1/4" below the stems.

Next run will be probably 100%.

And +1000 on Breeders Boutique. I forgot how knock out the Dog is.
