Most of the auto growers say that 20/4 is best. I have been on 24/0 and they do fine.

24/0 is my kind of grow. When did blooming begin?

they all show sex around 18-20 days. I start a couple every couple of weeks for a constant parade of frosty buds

Out of the mix I had one that had a diesely smell and it looked similar to the few that I could find pics of. I was stoney as hell

sweet cause im so use to that shit bag weed you never know what you got this is the first time i can truely put a name with the bud and know 100% i got what im told it is and im thinking of possibly trying to cross my blue with my rocket and see what comes of that crossing cause as far as i know no ones done it

I will breed My BHD for more seed then maybe down the road I will try some crosses

im gonna try both cause i wanna save both breeds seprate and have one cross just to see what comes up and if its anything worth redoing im willing to share seed

I was doing the same thing and building a stock that I will share with a couple of people. Is your order already on the way? Do you have a tracking #.

mine are here and already in the germing process. how do you germ cause im trying a new method of putting them on a reptile tank heating pad wraped in wet paper towls covered with a cup to keep moisture in from the evaporation

I put them in paper towel. I put a moist towel in the bottom of a plastic dish put the seeds on that then put another folded sheet of paper towel over them and make sure it is all damp. I put the top with pin holes on it and sit it on the cable box for warmth. They almost always pop in less than twenty four hours.

Have you ever had any trouble getting a plant to auto with 24/0?

sounds like what im doing pretty much my 2 rockets poped and im kinda worried about the one it still has the shell on the end but from the tip of the root to the shell theres a tiny spot where the root has a noticeable thin spot like its half the thickness of the rest of the root im wondering if thats gonna be a issue

I wouldn't worry yet. What are you using for your medium?

well i got it in a jiffy pot thats setting in a larger container of mg seed starter

I'm really curious to know, given your experience.

???

No I have not had that problem. Genetics from my breeder seem to be stable. A true auto should flower no matter what cycle it is on.

Thanks.

I found some references to the fact that plants grow at their max potential 24/0. From Rosenthal, etal. I forget where I posted it, but it resolved for me the controversy.

The idea that plants need to rest is just nonsense, it is an anthropomorphic projection.

I just wondered about any possibilty of trouble triggering the flower stage.

That goes back to stable genetics. Like I said the breeder I chose seems to be getting it right

That's what concerns me at the moment. I'm growing Fast Bud by Sweet Seeds, and it's their first auto strain. I'm not sure how stable it is, but it is a beautiful plant, and it's huge for one month old under one little Kessil led.

edit: Correction, Speed Devil was their first auto.

Has it flowered yet?

It began to show sex, and started to give off a nice smell, but then it seemed to stop. I'm trying to be patient.

It's beginning to stretch, but the scent has gone away...so???
