Crystal Candy auto

[audioaddict]

In order to keep myself a little more disciplined when it comes to vegging, actually allowing my next plants to grow without getting too impatient, I decided to run some autos.

 

Ironically, the first noob mistake has already been made, took far too long to pot them up into their 10l finals, they have stayed put on the stumpy side... my bad, and a good lesson.

 

 

Experimenting with rotation and space whilst I have little else to do!
Also something new to learn, have not run many autos before, and not really given them much attention in the past, though I do see a space or them in my garden.

 

I seem to have mostly short indica type phenos too, 6 out of 8 plants are quite similar in this regard, the other two being taller and one of those having quite a sativa like structure.

 

Really nice, heavy fruit smells coming through now...

 

 

First up, the two short arses of the litter;

 

These two may be small, but are like budsicles, so dense and chunky it is comical... also very fast, these two are way ahead in terms of flower;

 

Then we have a few short and branchy ones;

 

Getting a bit taller;

 

And my "sativa" pheno'

 

 

 

All are absolutely loving having the space to themselves, 2x 600x HPS, 10l pots of recycled compost (which ended up being too much!), Buddah Tree Organicus feed... nowt else... K.I.S.S

 

 

We'll see how the space gets, now that the next lot of photos have been put up into 6.5's and moved into the room... getting a bit crowded!

 

They're at about 6 weeks from seed, should hopefully be done early Jan

Great experts are not born taught, they learn from their mistakes.

Mini buds. They look like perfect house plants.   No one can ever complain about head room again!!

haha, very true... like big plants, they have to be cultivated!

It would be ace to have a few of these just dotted around the house.

Would definitely brighten up my space!

 

These things would definitely grow much bigger given the opportunity, though holding them back for a restrictive space is easy!

I made a very similar mistake the first time I grew autos after years of doing photos, potted them up 4 times and ended up with very small plants. This led to me underestimating this time round just how big they aren't stunted by potting up!

Yes, will have to keep an eye on that... I do want them bigger, but they also have to start giving way to photo's halfway through their flowering phase... gonna be fun finding a balance!

Forgot to add the finished pics of these, just stumbled across them, so in no certain order;

 

 

All had a similar, subtle berry/floral aroma and nice pleasant high, not too strong and quite balanced in effect.

 

Definitely would yield well i grown to full size

 

Will get 'em bigger next time!
