You transplant your autos?

2 Likes

Yes I do, but I use air pots so they air prune the roots anyway

I transplanted the auto’s I have now. Started in smaller than 16oz cup, to 1 gal and then to final 3 gal pot.

Auto’s are more resilient than you think, I’ve seen ppl top them with good results

It depends on finish time and other factors, but yeah topping can work, I would never do it because I usually am growing short finish autos and the window in which you could do it and benefit from it is very small. And when you can get the same effect super cropping yet still keep your main cola, it’s a win-win.

I personally have had nothing but small single cola autos when transplanting from 16oz cups. They hit a container wall and they’re done branching out.

Yes, personally I won’t top auto’s either.

I probably wouldn’t transplant if I wasn’t using air pots either. This is also my 1st auto run as well lol.
So I still have lots to learn on them, as in growth stage times, as well as traing them without topping.

I thought when it said 70 days, I thought that was the flower time, and not from seed lol

Running my 1st 4 Auto’s now. Wanted to, but was told not to top, and not to up pot. I started day old seedlings in 1 gallon pots, which looked pretty stupid. Will most like train a bit, but taking their advise and LITFA on this 1st run, see what they do

It sort of depends on the breeder. When I say 9-10 weeks, I mean from when the cotyledon open.

Hehe yeah I’ve had them finish in 56 days measured from the day they broke ground.

Alot of this auto stuff I had to find out the hard way and through alot of ignorance make sense of it all.

But when they are given the best chance, they can be every bit as big and fruitful as a photoperiod.

If you guys are anything like me you will fall in love with them, I only grow autos indoors now hehe

My dad is now wanting to build a room to grow now hehehe. I told him, it only takes 1 grow to get bit by the grow bug lol.
When he does build it, or I just set him up with tents. I’m gonna get him some more auto’s. 2 thc and 2 Cbd. I was talking to him about all the benefits that him and his wife would help them both with. I will have to talk with @sebring and ask him what he recommendes

That’s a great idea! I think autos are a great starting point for folks looking to dip their toes or old hands wanting to try something new.

I’ve been thinking of setting my grandmother up with an auto and a lamp to stick over it. She had so much fun with her deck plant this year but when her neighbor got robbed we had to move her deck plant to a new location. Shes always wanting pics and updates on it, so I want her to have a little one of her own. She dont even consume she just likes growing something taboo.

She could really benefit from CBD, but last time we gave her CBD oil she thought she was a cat-dog and started barking and meowing and crying thinking she was going to overdose. Yeah… one of them hehe

Hahaha.
My dad has never grown any type of plant before these outdoor auto’s. He’s having a great time, especially after I told him he was doing a great job.
I’ll hook him up with possibly some of those tasty looking Dark Devil’s from @ReikoX and some Cbd from @sebring

Are those the DD F2 x SBR or @Mr.Sparkle’s Dark Sparks (Dark Devil F3)

Oh, my bad…I thought those were all ReikoX’s

1 Like

Depends on where you got them or maybe I’m out of the loop but I didnt think ReikoX was making any pure Dark Devil genetics. I know he had F2s on-hand from Mr. S and crossed them with the SBR for the FAM beans but afaik he didnt F3 the DDs but like I say I might be out of the loop.

yeah if there the ones from me then there f3-4’s or so, if from rekio there a plant from the F2-3’s seeds i made but he grew and crossed with the Sugar Black rose he used.

Generation depends on how you want to count… Really just plants good, bad, or whatever in the end :wink:

No, you are probably correct. I have a hard time remembering shit lol. Thanks for correcting me.
Either of them would be great, I’ve seen both, and both look great.
