Just 1 Gallon

I got no exp growing weed, Was on my bucket list so I ordered an Auto Easyryder, I veged it in the window seal for a week then put under a 150 HPS. 1 plant 57 days seed to smoke 3.25 oz dry. I lost most of my photos, But here are a few I found on my phone from day 35. It should have went longer but I was moving and chopped it! Was the best smoke in town. She was alittle bigger than I thought 24" Soil to top, But I think thats cuz I put under hps so soon. Was grown in FFOF with little nutes, two doses of half strengh Tiger bloom. Just started another one 6 days ago A++!

Wow thats a mess! Im not good with these future boxes

Ok I fixed it disregard

Ya( punkrocker) ive done a few rounds of fast bud, no complaints , its nice and easy grow but very strong smelling so you definatly need some odor control

Well I cut down the Nirvana's supposedly auto bubbalicious today. It's just ok looking grass in my book. It had to be forced into flowering and did not like a conventional grow cycle(neither did the Fast Bud). Under 12/12 in the flower room they barely finished before the Skunk #1. It was just an experiment to see what I like. I didn't take photos because it just wasn't worthy. Definitely looks like over an ounce though. Hoping it actually tastes like the bubble gum I had in BC. I'll post final weight. Fast Bud yielded 23g dry and the other one is still hanging around so to speak. ha .

Surf has these auto's figured out. My attempt to have them in my sea of green with normal genetics did not go well. They didn't like that nute program either.

I just want to put up my smoke report on my samsara ultraviolets from dec harvest they are a nice strong hitter ill give 8-out of 10 . Ill get some more pics of my new ones up. Just sucks with cell phone camera .they are at day 49 and looking awesome!!

I'm on my 3rd grow total, and my 2nd Easyryder grow. I don't have access to a camera, so I don't have any pics. I planted them in 10" plastic pots filled with generic potting soil from a local greenhouse ($3). I started with a PC case, but now I'm legal so I run a 1'x4'x4' grow cab with 10 23W CFLs on a 24-0 cycle. I use 4200 for veg and 2700 for flower. ($50 to build the cab) I fed them with 1/2 strength MG general purpose plant food ($3)for most of the grow and switched to full strength Shultz African violet food ($3) for the last few weeks of flowering. I water them with collected rain water or snow-melt when I can or tap water when I have to. I did ph tests my last two grows but it was always close anyway so I haven't tested a thing this time. I haven't noticed a difference. Though I'm not an expert, I'm following Uncle Ben's (look him up) philosophy of keeping it simple and treating it like any other hungry house or garden plant. I yield about an oz per plant but it looks like more because the buds aren't that tight with the CFLs. They take about 2 weeks longer than the 60 days they advertize, but it's still really fast. It's 1-2-3 hit weed for me. One gets me feeling nice. Two gets me good and high, and a 3rd puts me deep in the zone. At that rate, an oz goes a long way. The smoke is as good enough that I can't see ever paying someone else for something I can do myself. Keeping away from the high priced soil and nute systems keeps the cost way down, and I can't see how things would be "better" by spending all that cash when things are great with the cheap stuff.

I hope that helped.

ya bill6567 that is a great thread its called uncle bens gardening tweeks and pointers its a great thread with a wealth of info ,hey bill whatyou said really sums it all up for me anyway !!!"The smoke is good enough that I can't see ever paying someone else for something I can do myself.Keeping away from the high priced soil and nute systems keeps the cost way down, and I can't see how things would be "better" by spending all that cash when things are great with the cheap stuff.

Ya I know you guys dont know me very well here. Should introduce myself a bit more, been breeding AFs longer then most, started with LR#1 crosses and so on back before Highbred.net was started. Anyway, here are shots of some of my work, when it comes to AFs, know a little bit. Feel Free to ask questions.

Sorry, dont grow most of the genetics offered today, figured a long time ago, if you want something out of an AF breed it yourself, so do. Breed to make the Best AFs possible.

Sorry if dont mention the strains names, dont want to seem like a troll here, just want to show you guys what else is out there in the AF world. And find a nice community to share my work.
Have more pics if that will satisfy.

Peace SGS,, what you guys think?
