Hello dear friends and fellow growers - welcome to my humble return to the indoor game.

Seems like ages since i've had an indoor grow and as you can imagine, i'm pretty excited to get going again.
I'm growing autos because i only have limited time to fit a crop at my current location and sweet seed's Autos are the only ones i really want to give a chance.

so it is!!!


got 5 of them germinating as i write this. tried to upload the pictures from my phone but experiencing technical difficulties. So you just going to have to take my word for it until i fix the camera thing.


Set up:

80x80x160 homebox (125mm extraction/passive intake)
150w secret jardin veg lamp
400w GIB hps

Nutes:

Rootjuice (biobizz)
Fishmix (biobizz)
Urgo (flower nutrient made by my local shop in austria)

Compost:

floraguard sowing compost (1st pot)
Plagron Batmix (2nd & 3rd pot up)


ALL ORGANIC GROW (except for the bloody sowing compost)



Haven't got the entire set up yet, but it should arrive by tuesday next week, but i've made a temporary veg cab in the kitchen cupboard and my veg light.


Wish me luck!

Welcome back GoBo. Glad to be back (indoor) myself. Pictures are a must and should get interesting from the start.

Nice one Tommy! After checking out your diary, i must say that maybe, just maybe i should have taken cream caramel auto instead of the BJA. But who knows...
I've had to pleasure of smoking some black jack before and if the auto version is any where near it, i'll be happy!


Now the the first pic of my temporary veg cab.



I got five little pots, sowing compost and the BJA seeds inside. I expect them to pop their heads out by sunday.

Cheers,

No problem vince, take a seat and help yourself my outdoor selection, but please keep your balls or genitals inside your pants.



So, we have lift off!!!

DAY 3

Primera, Do$$ & Tres are slowly rising. I mean, really slowly to what i'm used to. I had to check Tommy's diary - his BJA looked a bit slower in growth rate as the cream caramel. Which leads me to think that the slow initial growth might be due to the strain in general.



Gave them plain tap water and going to introduce a pinch of rootjuice next time.

Esperanza is the 4th seedling.



she's a real fighter, cause she was really struggling for the very beginning. I noticed that something wasn't right and discovered that the tip of her tap root had fried or dried somehow. So, i quickly made a new little hole and stuck the very sad looking seedling (about 2.5cm long) into the it with some water. THAT WAS 2 DAYS AGO! Since then she has propped up and has a rather nice green colour. This could mean that she developed a new tap root, which would be some kind of miracle!

Ultima is the 5th and last to make her appearance.



She popped out of the ground today while i was at work - Which means that telepathic powers do work, cause i was mentally telling her to finally show herself today!


So, this is the whole gang and their start dates (I need to make new tags).

Primera - 13/03
Do$$ - 14/03
Tres - 14/03
Esperanza - 14/03
Ultima - 16/03

Cheers,

DAY 5

Group shot.


Gave them a pinch of rootjuice (1.5ml/L) with their last watering.
24h light cycle to keep temps constant at 28C, but the humidity is a little low ~40%

Slowly but surely growing a second set of leafs.




Esperanza, which had the burned root-tip is still fighting. Actually, i think we have a proper survivor!
But you can notice that she was sitting on a hot spot, since her first set of leafs are really dark!

? why are u using small pots with autos I always thought u u went in to big pots from start ?

I was also thinking the same and I was considering putting them into final pots right away. But if i time the pot-ups correctly, the plants will develop a better root mass and this in turn should give me more buds.
I also think they advice the rookies to stick the auto seedlings right into final pots in order to make them seem even easier then non-auto strains - just an assumption...
