West Coast Vaper

My plan is: Tyre's, maybe 2 high. Dig down about 600mm at each tyre position and start mixing in some of my compost that is full of red wrigglers. Then use those holes as mini compost bins for the next 3 months. Dead leaves from the nursery and kitchen scraps. The overall area I'm just going to turn in some compost that the landlady makes. She gives us a few wheelbarrows worth every month. Cannabis soil in tyre with cover crop planted a couple of weeks before I start the season. Then the damn wind. Scrounging materials for a wind break. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

At day 9 this batch is off to a good start. Last batch of mixed autos before the Anastasia 99 fems.

Day 81 Chop day. Buds nice and dense, sticky with a nice sweet aroma. Mostly milky with amber starting to show. If you have the space I'd put money on growing in 3l pots if you want to steer clear of problems like over watering. My next lot are in 7l pots although I think I have growing in a 10l down to a T as well. Getting ready for those fems @Bay Seeds. Getting an outdoor area ready for in the ground planting. Gonna have to build some sort of enclosure for wind protection.

And very grateful, thank you for allowing me to grow some of your [emoji91] again. Thread on that starting soon. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Day 77 for the 3l pots. Clear with some milky trichomes under the microscope. Dense buds. The one plant went kind of limp. Dense buds the one day then all very soft the next day. Like a clump of wet wool. Anyway that one is hanging now. Sorry @Bay Seeds already planted another batch. Outdoor prep coming along for this season. 150l soil for now. Not much but a start.

My outdoor lot really off to a slow start. Condition's not ideal but I wanted to see for myself. Will be updating that thread soon. As far as growing autoflower, this is what I've learnt planting close to 100 if not more seeds thanks to @Bay Seeds. Start with tried and tested soil. Plant 3 seeds per 10l pot. Humidity dome for the first week. Only spray for watering, no watering soil directly. Nurture those futhermuckers. Tried LST. All those plants ended up smaller than the ones left alone. Once the plant is strong enough I water maybe once a week. After a month or so I stick my finger in the soil every day to judge watering times. Occasional molasses. Male's aside I've harvested about a third of the plants. So that gives me about 30 plants that were flops. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

The old lady got the chop. New batch of @Bay Seeds mixed auto's in the overnight cabinet. 7l pots this time with 3-4 seeds per pot. Almost ready to give the Anastasia 99 regular auto's a go.

@Bay Seeds mixed auto pack. Strawberry Cheesecake, Lemon Larry OG or both will forever be the question.

Day 100 Planted 02/04 10l pot with water and occasional molasses only. The eye, nose and sticky fingers say chop. Phone camera pic looks miles from finished. Microscope says chop ' I'm just the sort of smoke you like '.

Thanks for letting me do these test grows. You know I'm an addict. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Round the 100 day mark for the big lady and day 70 for the purple one.

A different kind of curing jar. Did a market this past weekend and was surprised at the amount of people asking about infusing cannabis for them. All ages and walks of life. Just working on labeling now.

Day 67 These six are in 3l pots. Tried putting them in order. Don't ask Meant to be top, bud and side shots. These plants are looking and smelling Lekker though. Think this is my best auto attempt so far.

Day 96 @Bay Seeds mixed auto in the 10l pot. This girl is slightly bigger than my 20l attempt. Think I'll stick to 10l pots going forward as all my 20l attempts ended with dismal results. I am prepping an outside area in the ground for this outdoor season though. 10l pots in the shade house and then in the ground outside.

Something similar happened to me. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Decided to give this one the chop today. Round the 90 day mark. Milky with about 20% amber under the microscope. Toight and sticky bugs with a fruity smell.

Yep. Everyone and Google warn against temps. My outdoor lot at the moment are sitting at 4° overnight and that is still warm out here at the moment. As you mentioned, plants are taking their time and heading to be on the small side. Out of 15 plants 3 or 4 of them looking to be a decent size. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

If you run into problems give me a shout. I have @Bay Seeds auto seeds, a mixed bunch that I'm growing hybrid (outdoor during the day, under lights during the night) then in a makeshift greenhouse this winter. Learning a bit more about the plant then summer I'll be testing some of his [emoji91] again. So if things don't work out first attempt let's see how some @Bay Seeds beans do on a garage roof. Strawberry Cheesecake, Lemon Larry OG or a mix of the two. So a nice lucky packet. These two are at about 90 days. Shout out if you need. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Stay local if you can. As mentioned @Light It Up and @growopz are super helpful. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Hey bud. Running an auto outdoor this winter myself. Not ideal where I am, misty mornings till 10am, temps down to 4 overnight but like you, why not grow [emoji16] Unless you know what you doing stick to 10l pots. I tried 20l and every time the plant was smaller than the 10l. Don't ask why, suppose that's how you learn about auto's. I've also made a plan greenhouse sort of thing to protect them at night and the rain. Oh. If you think you have a sneeze coming on don't even look at your plants, they will stunt their growth just to piss you off. I have had more success than deaths though and 90 days from seed to harvest I'll keep on trying. Good luck. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Sorry if I'm breaking rules here, but FCUK man, I'm well stocked man.

Thank you to the believer's. Inspiration to grow so many more of Mother Nature's other herbs. Cottage Industry packaging for now using recycled materials.
