TrevorLahey's Low Budget Growing Part 4: "The Hunger Games"

I’ve let autos go as long as 100 days but most of Reikos gear lands in the 56-70 day range. Of course things can slow down/speed up the process slightly but I’d say yours should probably be done by now.

With that said the autos I have running now are 59 days in and I still expect a couple more weeks on some, maybe even more.

They are at 7 weeks outside on Sunday 8 weeks total from seed. The last 2 to come up, still have nice green leaves and the oldest surviving one has only a couple of leaves left, still in the process dying off, the rest have gone. They are reeking at the moment, I can smell them from 15 ft away lol great smell as well. I have been smoking the one I took down last week, great taste, great buzz, I am not sharing these, they are going in my personal jar :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Well then you probably still have some time left. You will know best, same process as a photoperiod really.

I love me some purple strains, I always wanna have one going at any time they end up being so dank and gorgeous looking.

The consensus seems to think it’s a good product, but I’ll have to find a recipe or a list of stuff to have on hand for when I do need to top dress in flower.

I liked it more than fox farms ocean forest. All I would do is top dress with this soil. I would mix in some grow powder when up potting and making soil. And same thing with flower time. Hit them with them gaia green flower dust at start of flip, mix it into soil Only downside I came across is the high price and possible fugnas knats that came in with the soil.

Yeah the Gaia green amendments are stupid expensive I’m finding. Wish I could find a cheaper alternative.

This side of my garden gets dark earliest because the sun goes down behind my garage. It worked out because alot of the genetics on this side are typically late flowering but are now way ahead of the rest. Definitely something to note for future outdoor adventures, we can exploit this :slight_smile:

Looking great :+1: the outdoors have really exploded over the last two weeks. Your indoor stuff looks like it will finish up just fine. :v:

Ayy thanks MB, yeah just pushing through now, the outdoor garden is definitely surprising me every day the Agent K must have grown 4 feet in the last 2 weeks before starting to flower. I got some buds here I’m sure will be done before the end of this month which is crazy I’ve never harvested an outdoor photoperiod plant that early.

That burn is pretty much identical to what happened to mine. I was definitely way overfeeding, combined with too hot and light too close. Have you tried a good flush?

I’m going to start running lots of water through my coco every couple weeks to prevent that mega crop salt buildup. Runoff was at 3-5000ppm…oops lol

@beacher Yeah I’ve been giving em straight water a couple days a week. Idk if it helped but they’re still alive so hey there’s that. Have done a complete flush twice but it caused more issues than it solved.
