I bought a new flower tent. It can take 12 plants in 3 gallon pots. I had 8 photos ready to go in, which left me space for 4. So I got 4 Auto seeds and gave them a try. I know I'd be better off running them under the lights 24/0 but they are getting 12/12 and they are working. I grow in a loft and it is a constant battle keeping the tent warm when the lights are off. So I have a dozen photos vegging that could do with a bit longer, so I have ordered a dozen Blue Critical from Experts Seeds and I will put them on when the current lot are finished (just before Xmas) and run them 24/0. I will put my photos on in late Feb/early March when the weather warms up. This will give my photos loads of time to bush up and root a few cuttings for Mothers.

I won't be able to run Autos during the summer months as it gets too hot with the lights on during the day, so I will put on a dozen photo seeds which I can run into September. Then go back on the Autos. I am tempted to run a second flowering tent a month out of sync with the first one, successional planting meaning I always have something to harvest.

The advantage of Autos is you don't have to veg them. Just stick the seed in the pot and go. 10 -12 weeks later you will have some weed. No extra vegging, minimal nutes, no potting up. Just keep the lights turned on.

My trouble is I am supplying my whole family. I smoke, my wife smokes, so does my grown up Daughter and her Partner. I am selling it to my Daughter and her partner (cheaply), they have no idea what I am up to, they think I get it off my mate down the road. I am keeping the money and putting it into high yield savings for them, for when they have a large expenditure (I'm thinking House Deposit).

I only started growing again in April 2020, after about 4 years off. It was lockdown, I was bored and my supply had become patchy. I had a load of redundant grow gear in the loft, so thought fuck it and started up again. Then I realised that my kit was a bit obsolete and started to upgrade.

It is addictive this growing malarky.

I know all about autos, just wondered why people bothered growing them indoors. Still not heard a logical reason though. they come from cannabis ruderallis which is wild in some Northern Hemisphere countries. The thc levels in ruderallis are not great and the auto crosses that I have been unfortunate enough to have smoked honestly did not make me think, "wow, now I understand."
Good thing you are doing for your family, but grow photos to sell them, :) Buy a heater and have your lights on at night when temps are down.
Good luck.

There's lots of rumours etc as to what exactly livers/blues is, fuck nos but it deffo grows alot different to exo or pyscho and yeah still super stinky n tastey but is a much lighter stone than exo or pyscho.

And yes I've grown it many times, grew all 3 for many a yr. I don't think it's another skunk1 pheno just imo.

Yo people. Evryone doing good. A mate of mine in the west midds does micro grows an his 150 watt led board has gone down. He's going to have to seend it back through post to repair which right now will take about a month or two to get back. His in week 3 of bloom an has had to put up 2 cfl's. Has any one got a spare 100-150 watt quantum with some leds out or something there not using or maybe a old 150-250 hid lying around they dont use to help him out. Ive got a 600 for him but he said they'll fry as he is only in a 2x2 and has about 140cm in hight. He dont have much money so something dirt cheep or maybe he might be able to sort some beans or something. If anyone can help him out itl be much appreciated.

Definitely,there was livers that was nice .But there was another couple I loved bluesz ,real light green ,stunk a lot lighter than livers .I got told years later it was blue cheese .Long before it was available in seed .And another called Jack herer but barnsley Jack,best cutof jack herer I have seen.I personally think that could have been a sensi seed pheno ?looked identical to there old picture of it .
