Hey guys this is my LEGIT first grow.
The last grow wasn't successful at all,
so i really don't count it ! LOL
It was a White Dwarf Autoflower
but grew only 6 inches and got like a gram :(
i had no clue what i was doing though.

This time i'm growing either La Blanca Autoflower
Or Maturo Blue Autoflower from Kannabia Seeds.
I got the two seeds mixed up so not sure which one it is.

Lighting : 150 watt hps 20/4
Side Lighting : 150 watt cfl
Soil : Fox Farms Ocean Forest
Nutes : Fox Farm Big Bloom & Tiger Bloom
Temps : 72-78 drops about 5 degrees at night
Humidity : 40-50% ( I have a small closet humidifier)
I have two fans circulating.

So my plant is 60 days old as of 11/9/2010
It's 1 foot Tall, and is looking pretty good!
it's a little droopy though, i'm not worried.

It's been flowering for about two weeks.
No signs of buds just some pistils top to bottom.

I started giving it Big Bloom 3 weeks after germination,
and started giving it Tiger Bloom When it first started flowering.

I give it a cup of water (not sure if it's enough but plant doesn't seem to mind it),
then i don't water it for a day, after that i give it 1/4 of Tiger bloom and two tablespoons of big bloom mixed into a gallon of water. And then so on if that makes any sense? LOL

OHH and i keep hearing this rumor that La Blanca/Maturo Blue Autoflower
is not an Autoflower? i'm really iffy about putting it on 12/12.

So i'd really like your guys input!

Thankyou :)

eh but i heard 20/4 is better ! grows faster :)
yeah it has pistils. not many though.
It's starting to get pretty damn bushy under the fan leaves.
I'm just confused where the buds are going to be growing HAHA.

thankyou for the quick reply!

buds will form in the same place pistils do :D
Some say there is no difference between 18/6, 20/4, or 24/0 other than energy used by the light.
I would go with 18/6 or 20/4 to save energy in veg stage, Plus I think its always better to reproduce natural conditions.
One school of thought is the plant is able to use all of its energy to use stored nutes during dark time, and when the lights come on some of its energy is then used to get more nutes. This makes since to me.

oh okay because i'm starting to see buds a LITTLE by the pistils (barely though) :)
& i'm just going to stick with the 4 hours of dark.

First, in the photosynthesis process itself, there is a reaction known as 'dark reaction' pathway or lately known as 'carbon reaction' pathway where the free energy of ATP and reducing power of NADPH, are used to fix and reduce CO2 to form carbohydrate. This is very important process to release Oxygen into the air. This happened in the dark or at night.

^^ Just found that on yahoo answers!

should i bump ?

my only question is has anyone ever grown out la blanca autoflower or maturo blue autoflower?
it's about 16 inches now and hasn't budded still ! just little pre flowers it looks like.

Going on day 66 :(

Kannabia seeds says it takes 3+ months until harvest with flowering time 7-8 weeks.
SO CONFUSED
