hmmm have skywalker written on it, must of been me then
and i take it back the photos seeds had a temporary dunk and are now drying…
realized just now i only have 9 week to deal with as far as this next cycle as im gone christmas so the photos arent gonna cut it unfortunately
alright, threw a bunch of my Last Chance Autos “mix” in water, some ghost of cinderevil x purple lemonade, and some early seed that have dropped from the various plants running right now.
Is ghost of CinderEvil: Ghost Rose x CinderEvil?
I just chopped some CinderEvil x Spotted Lime auto regs that accidentally happened during a spotted lime F-gen expansion.
I threw like 15-20 beans (of 100±) outside in a 20gal pot of top-dressed, recycled, cactus dirt (white pumice, fine white pumice, even finer black lava sand, decomposed granite, coco chip, coco peat, and vermicompost, so not a very rich mix) and after culling the males have 9 nice, chunky little plants!
Chopped a pair last week and another pair yesterday (along with some Freakshow main colas 
)
They were fast, like 75 days from getting the seeds wet, vigorous and grew through the 100+ degree weather, and the CinderEvil terps defiantly dominated…
yup and crossed using some fem purple lemonade pollen, just trying them cause why not think only one or two people actually have those seeds as it was just a side thing but i expect mutants from them slightly.
Day 61 they will be pulled this weekend at some point, also need to plant some seeds as a bunch have sprouted tails.
yeah been a bit but we all have been busy
Odd question but i was offered some chinese xxl 45 day auto’s so seeing as you have the fastest turn around of autos i have seen anyone have. What is your fastest seed to complete strain?/ one you know of. Dont really want just a strain thats listed as whatever days it takes on a seed banks site i want a honest growers opinion kinda thing 
I know the dark sparks were speedy when i grew them out but 45 days seems like an exagguration on this. Anyway cheers, hope you are doing good 
If they are saying 45 days i would guess they would highly likely be dating from first signs of sex not over all so tack on an extra 2-3 weeks on that.
Now fasted ive had plants finish is in the low 40 range but that only happens when pretty good stressors make the plants decided that then need to finish up and quick such as going bone dry and the plant going limp and being like that for a day or two, or some decent root issue when just a couple weeks into bloom, plant just gives up on producing more flowers and just works on what it has at that point.
Realistically right around that 8.5week mark seems to be the low end on autos in my experience if they are running happy and are of the quick verity.
Ahh interesting thankyou i might try a few and see what kinda thing these autos produce, i loved the fruity smells and flavours and purples of yours so itll be hard to beat.
Hey Mr. Sparkle!! Sorry to take over your thread, but I know you’re a perfectionist and smart with leds and all this…my Mars hydro ts1000 just crapped out on me. The light flashes for a second and then dies for another 5 seconds, then flashes again and dies. I’m thinking I need a new driver.
Here are specs of marshydro:
150w 36v 3.8amps
I found this one online…specs are:
155w 36v 4.3 amp
https://www.digikey.ca/en/products/detail/xp-power/LCS150US36/15666847
In this case I would be underdriving the driver, right?..not overpowering the leds?
Will that driver work?
Many thanks, sir!!
Checked all your connections and plugins on the light?
Yup. I shut the room down 5ish months ago…shut everything off and closed the doors. So nothing was moved or anything.
Went to test run today and light won’t go. All connections secure and tight.
Only reason i say that is i had a similar problem when my timer broke.
Just as a first check like @Bob13 said though tried it id also try isolating the driver from the adjustment knob “potentiometer” and possible the main switch and see ti just fires up directly, reason being is potentiometers do fail ive seen them do funky flicker things as the driver is deading different %.
if its completely dieing then coming back on could be the driver has failed and is similar to how ive had ones fail when running too hot, sometimes lowering the output on them makes them work, otherwise that converter is not really ideal just as what you should be looking for is one that you can current adjust and by quick glance that one you can only slightly adjust voltage and voltage control you can kinda wander into thermal runaway territory not that im saying that it would actually get there with it maxing out at 155w, just as the panel heats up the voltage requirements go down and in turn forcing it at a steady voltage then the current would go up in turn… would it work yeah probably just would have to play with voltage adjustment while its heated up to set what it draws which could be over or under at base levels.
Also finally got around to transplanting some of the seedling i had in starter plug into pots and hooked them up auto water wise, except for the top cabinet which i would be running the black reservoirs just that i broke a irrigation head yesterday so using a white res in quad duty atm vs the black ones on only dual pot duty.
Well hell cuz, it looks like you got it by the short&curlies here… again! Always enjoy checking your grows, they’re great!
I do love your setup Mr.Sparkle.
