One of my Favorite places and times to medicate. Who knows where this is? Unedited Raw Beauty

Smoke a king size roley when I get home(all is shared with my wifey) Eat supper, then have another one. Around 11pm have either a small one or a bong of some strong indica. I overdid it last night with the cheese, still feeling it today haha.

Not such a crazy question ! I personally smoke around 10 g a day , but then I'm my own boss and when your whole life is involved in 420, its a perk of the job. Things can get out of hand when the 6 or so sample bags get put in your care to test.

I love how many of us are using the 'checkers pots' :) Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk

Started this grow a few weeks back. Some background, GTH tent - 80cm x 80cm x 180cm DWC set up in a 45L reservoir 6inch cool tube with 400w MH for veg and 400w HPS for flower Got "The Church" from Greenhouse seed co. Haven't done much so far, just followed some advice and plucked the 5th set of leaves. Seems to have worked as I can see atleast two new main branches developing. Hoping to get a decent scrog going.

Howzit guys, These are my first grows ever, black domina xxl auto. Day7, coco mix, grow, ill be posting frequent updates here and probably going to be asking a load of questions! My mother (haha) is busy growing GSC x2 and Ed Rosenthal x1, ill maybe post a few pics of these as well. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Ok I'll start my grow diary on this, even though I'm a few months in and it's not impressive. Always nice to look back at how noob one was from when they started. Before I'm scrutinized... Yes pot is too small. Yes should only have one plant in. This was my tester grow, Plan to plant directly in garden next time. Have some seeds already planted waiting to sprout. Was very fortunate that it I got both plants come out as females. Didn't know how to sex them, just let them grow. Took this now just after I pulled off golden leaves, which I read up to remove.

Good day all, i have recently purchased a few H24 Autoflowering CBD seeds. I have selected a prime spot in my backyard, it gets direct sunlight for almost all of the day. It is currently summer and our temperature ranges from 24°C/75,2°F to 34°C/93,2°F , I have read a lot of grow guides and prepped my medium accordingly (Also i purchased the necessary nutes.). Most people say that transplanting autos could result in lower yield therefore i was wondering if i could just directly plant my seed (post germination) into the soil patch i have prepped outside. I am just scared that the seedling might die off outside due to the high temperatures and sunlight intensity. Would it be better to let it develop a bit in a peat pellet and then transplant?

#trophyseeds. So here we go... Outside stealthy pot in pot grow :) day--1 23:10 Germination time left 24 hours Temp 23deg 220ppm (Jhb tap water) 10 taps on bean at 1st attempt of sinking bean in first 5mins. No go. Wait to see what she looks like in 12 hours... Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk

Hi there. I was so stoked on this landmark date that I almost got an 18/9/18 tattoo. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

That's already smokable, but hold out. Hard to see from the pics, but once the 'hairs' are about 75% brown, you can harvest. Would be better using a loupe, but if you don't access to one, the browning hairs are a good indicator Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk

I doubt constraint is an issue for most on this forum, personal preference I suppose. If you only bong or vape, a gram can go a far way, but I enjoy rolling myself a long size 2 or 3 times a day over the weekend. I've cut down drastically during the week for a while. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk

Yeah, I also learned that lesson very quickly. Root bound, those little cups are, well, little Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk

Good luck bud!! I just lost an auto due to this warm weather, it fried the seedling after it got a couple hours sun

and so it begins Been going through so many finished grow diaries, Glad to have a front row seat to the start.

Wow man thanks for the detailed reply much appreciated I have some clonex rooting gel don't know if that will work I actually bought it to attempt cloning with my autos, lot of controversy there so I figured I'd try it myself. I also got my seeds from pachamama, I've been curious as to how accurate there yield numbers are, have you harvested in the past? I find it difficult to believe that an auto could yield 200g. And there critical auto claims to have an outdoor harvest of 1200g! I bought some of those seeds as well figured it's worth a try. I decided to not plant directly into soil rather got me a fairly large smart pot which is made of fabric allows more oxygen to get to the roots heard some great things about people who have a history with them also I can move the plant if it is extremely hot. And then for my soil mix I basically went 1-1-1 with normal soil, perlite and peat I couldn't find neem oil but opted for an organic fungicide instead also I am using the beer trap method to keep snails out I'll definitely keep the copper wire in mind if I run into a problem with them.

Thats a good idea, going to try that when I start with my autos.

Here some pics from my grow - just don’t use see through cups like me because I had to black them out afterward to block lights from the roots as per the advice of an experienced grower! i hope you get the idea now

@Trailblazer420 Hehehe checkers! But yeah, beware of root restrictions as Batista said - happened to me and it sucked. I read the roots would just break through, but it takes long, and stunts growth - especially in autos. Dude it could have been a snail - just prop the lady back up and you should either get snail pellets or your gonna want to wrap copper wire numerous times around the pot or the stem (if doing stem just beware that it does not restrict the stem), if yu havent aready get yourself some neem oil for preventative spraying as a good natural pesticide! As you may have read, autos don’t like transplanting because their veg time is so short that the shock may stunt them. That being said you can transplant them, just make extra care not to disturb the roots! Try not transplant the autos too much. The photoperiods are all good for transplanting and I agree with what Batista and trailblazer420 have said, go up with size and how comfortable you are! Youre off to a good start ! Keep it up.

Love the top one

Just order from Ace Chem

Welcome man! Keen to see what you've been up to

I have home made ones from a local supplier that pump out PAR and Lumens got 2 x 60w 1 x 300w multi spectrum( 120-150w actual draw) and 1 x 60 quantum board LED. No brand names like Mars etc but they hit the spot better than most people I knows more “premium” lights

i just wanted to know what kind of smokers we have out there and its so interesting to here there is a wide variety of smokers on here be it @YourStonedBuddy that smokes 1 pipe a day all the way to @Green Leaf Organics that smokes upwards over 10g a day and all the guys in between. Also what i would like to know is the reason for the amount you smoke Personal the amount you enjoy, budget constraints Or sourcing is a Problem ?

A little lst, but because it's an auto, I don't want to mess with her too much. 75 days isnt quite enough to get a proper training technique going. I could be wrong. I'm Old school, this is my first auto. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk

a walk around the neighborhood

Thanks guys, this was my first grow and I was very happy with it. I am about to start my 3rd grow in the next couple of days. Going to give Lemon OG Haze from Nirvana a try Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome to the forums bud , lot's of knowledge floating around here .

@Batista Sorted http://www.freedomfarms.co.za/outlets/

Bean cracked open just enough to see its fertile. To the soil it goes. Peat 20%, perlite 20%, potting soil 60%. Flushed using 10L of water, wasn't in the mood to cook soil. Currently under 24/0 9w LED, once stable I think this will become an outdoor plant. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk

Yea i saw on some post that you hate growing outdoors Best of luck on the new venture, i have not done a outdoor grow myself but from a friends grow ive seen all these threats to the plant and the ones that make it are always killers.

Nah, all outdoors for now.First time growing outdoor so need to learn and see what this is all about.Plants are already being battered by the wind and the slugs, so making some adjustments,building some wind barriers. etc .

Just some bagseed atm,but have some dutch passion autos that im busy preparing hempy buckets for:)

Sigh something happened during the night to the girl scout cookie. Snail? Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Some update pics. 2 small pots, black domina auto xxl Other is girl scout cookies Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Update: Since adding ferts my main plant has boomed, wow I know I was to expect it, but not so fast. Getting a deeper green which I was not expecting and leaves look healthier.

Yeah what Trailblazer said, another 2-3 weeks before transplanting. It totally up to you how many times you want to transplant.If you are confident in your plants and your setup then go for it, if you are unsure then progress slowly, just dont let them get root bound.

Gradually move up pot size, don't transplant straight into 40L pots Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk

It's too early. Give them another 2 weeks. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk

Nice, one word of advice regarding the checkers pots - when its time to transplant remove the entire thing from the pot or just cut the bottom out, that cardboard restricts roots and they take longer to poke through.I wont use Checkers pots again after seeing them stunt the plants.

Haha, gave me a chuckle. I started out my first grows in a cabinet like this. I had two extraction 110m3/h fans for intake & extraction. One hole at the bottom and the other at the top directly behind the light. Ran a 400w in there and could fit about 3-6 plants in it.

The problem with those general fertilizers are that they're not specifically designed for cannabis. Give it a try on one plant and see how it reacts. You can always flush if you see its not working out. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk

zip, just water. I've been topping up with a bit of compost, stirring the top soils while watering now and again.

15/07/2017 I must have looked at hundreds of pictures and read numerous posts to try and pinpoint my problem. Together with some good advice from this forum I have now come to my senses and had a plan. Dump the water AGAIN! Wash EVERYTHING thoroughly (even rinsed out the net-pots with pebbles and plants in them)! Decided that Proplant is k@k and did not add it again. 30 liter water - 86ppm, PH = 7.7 10g GROW nutrients - 300ppm, PH = 7.1 20ml PH down - 315ppm, PH = 5.6 Temp on lid: 24 C Water temp: 20 C Hum: 47% These TDS readings look a bit more appropriate for baby plants Now it's wait and see. Seems that the AK48 is more sensitive than the WR. After all that work and stress I had to sit and enjoy the sea view for a bit.

The real grow story begins with ordering the seeds on 24/05/2017 and the agonizingly long wait for it to arrive on 27/06/2017 Into the germination kit the seeds go on 28/06/2017. I have not yet devised a plan to keep this part of the process at a constant nice and comfy temperature, so because of cold conditions they took a while to peek out. On 05/07/2017 both AK48 and one White Rhino seedling were visible. And this is when impatience caused my first mistake - I went digging for the second White Rhino seed to see if it germinated and ended up damaging the pin root So, the first lesson would be to practice patience when working with cannababies

Love the mudball Idea. Please can we chose a day and do this nationally?

I've also considered it. Just take lots of bag seed, and drop seeds everywhere....

Hahaha, maybe we should start a movement, everyone just scatters their seeds everywhere

yeah man, I agree, weed is one tough plant. I popped a seed in one of my office plants and forgot about it. Just parking in the window. Topped twice to keep it low.
