BizzBeachbum - BioBizz Soil & Nutes - AutoUtlimate & AutoEuphoria

I veg only 40-60 days depending on how much room I have in the tents. Some strains double or triple in height during stretch
Yeah I mean I think 4 to 6 weeks in veg is normal. Idk autos are an entire different ball game. But far more consistent also
Start them at the same time and let the auto enjoy as many hours of light as possible, but do the grow for the photos, autos will do just fine following suit.

You might want to keep veg time relatively short with an almost pure sativa like that, during the first couple of weeks after flip to flower it will stretch at least 200% and most likely more.
And maybe flip to 11/13 rather than 12/12 to kickstart flowering.


Great advice dudes, appreciated as usual - I'm gonna do it. When my 420 gurus agree then I know I'm on the right track.

It's gonna be Auto vs Regular Durban Poison for next grow.

I'm busy completing my online order now - my preferred seed vault is offering a freebie, I can choose 1 of the following:

1 x Red Diesel - Barneys Farm
1 x 8 Ball Kush - Barneys Farm
1 x Peyote Critical - Limited Edition - Barneys Farm

I've gone with the Red Diesel - a Californian Orange x New York City Diesel mash-up. Sounds fun.
 
Nice I also have a couple of those. Good choice on the red D. It would make a great summer grow strain, as it can tolerate a little higher temps in flower.

1 freebie, with 2 packs of seeds ????
Last time I ordered a 10-pack from Attitude I got 20 freebies (and still cheaper than Seed City even with the 15% discount they offer) maybe you should look for a new seed dealer ;)

Howzit Purple - 20 freebies WOW - would take a few grows to get through all that. I only bought the 1 pack of 3 x Auto Durban Poison from the Vault - I ordered the photos last week straight from Dutch Passion.

Just checked out those other sites you mentioned dude. Haven't seen them before - both have cool search tools and I'll definitely explore further. Attitude's price and freebie offer was the same as the what I got from the Vault except Attitude postage and delivery would have been free - the Seed City has the same freebie offer of 1 seed but would have been much cheaper - if I ordered just another 37p then I would qualify for a second seed. They also just happen to have a Dutch Passion sale on right now. :laugh: Will be keeping an eye on these sites for future grows.

The Vault have treated me well before - together with their freebie they have thrown in a free seed (or two) of same type as what I bought. For my first grow I ordered 3 Northern Lights - I got 2 free NL and a Blue Mammoth. But I'm not impressed with their delivery charge - £5 is crazy - I don't need secure delivery, just pop it through the letterbox.
 
Attitude always have a lot of promotions going that will stack up, I think you get 4 freebies just if you pay via bank transfer.
(And they have a little selection of In House Genetics seeds, and unlike Urban Green Birmingham they get up in the morning to do business :) )

If you ever think about ordering from seed city, send me a pm first and I'll find one of those 15% discount codes for you.

Thanks dude - brilliant - will definitely keep in mind.
 
Looks like you'll be having a date with Edward Scissorhands. Looking good
They are really looking good. How are the Trich's looking? If I figure correctly the Ultimate's are all at about 90 days??
Looking sweet, day 0 coming soon :)


Thanks dudes - while patiently flushing them, I would just stare at the thick colas - as if I can't believe my eyes.

Spot on as usual Troy - 87 days today from sprout and 90 days since seed. I'll get trich shots over the long weekend :yahoo:
 
Easter break is just what I need - I haven't been able to get round to everyone's journal. I've caught up with Lowded and most of MadDabber's epic in the last few days but its been a week since I've seen any others. Sorry dudes.

But - get the cheesy-poofs in, I'll be round to visit you all over the next few days - I'll bring the Blue Mammoth
 
BizzBeachbum - BioBizz Soil & Nutes - AutoUtlimate & AutoEuphoria

· 3 x Auto Ultimate & 3 x Auto Euphoria — from Dutch Passion
· BioBizz Light Mix Soil in 15L Smart Pots
· 2 x 450W ViparSpectra LED and/or 600W HPS
· Temp: 15-25C, RH: 35% — 45%
· Nutes: BioBizz range + Plant Magic CalMag


Introduction: Hey dudes, I'm new to 420 and even newer to growing.
I've spent many happy days in the last few months researching 420 grow journals and guides. I have been inspired by the helpful info and encouraging attitude of our members, and I can't wait to get involved. I've been writing and editing this intro for weeks now, and now that its showtime, I'm a little nervous.

This (my first) journal will be for my second grow - I want to up my yield dramatically by learning from those mistakes made in my virgin grow, use techniques learned from 420 members and take on board new advice along the way. I think that writing a detailed journal will help me keep track of my plan, monitor progress and allow the 420 community to guide and encourage me along the way.


The Cunning Plan to up my yield:
· 3 x Auto Ultimate & 3 x Auto Euphoria — Dutch Passion
· Topping at 3rd/4th node at 14 days (if all going to plan) — ouch, I know
· 1.2 x 1.2 x 2m Grow Tent
· 5" In-Line Fan exhaust, Carbon Filter
· 2 x 450W ViparSpectra LED and/or 600W HPS
· BioBizz Light Mix in 15L Smart Pots
· PHed bubbled water every other day / every day as required.
· BioBizz nutes (½ strength) + Plant Magic CalMag — every other watering.

It might seem as if I have every confidence in what I'm doing, this is an illusion brought on by loads of reading the theory — but, I'm just a noob who will continue to make mistakes. I'm going to follow any advice from experienced growers and will continue to research and learn along the way.


Inspiration: during these long winter nights, while waiting for my current grow to mature, there is no better way of spending your time than with a cuppa tea, a spliff and reading 420 grow journals for inspiration. My research has focused mainly on the set-ups that are close to my preferred options which include LEDs, Autos and BioBizz soil.

:love:Eyes4grandpa - Grandpa's Second Try - Come Join Us!inspirational in every way. Grandpa and Kelly have pulled off a brilliant community grow. Just shows you what perseverance, positive attitude and community encouragement can achieve. I was also introduced to the work of other members through this journal including Grow2HealMe Pennywise imtoasted UrbanAchiever Old TimingMan Derbybud Kingjoe83 TheMadDabber and HappyHouse.
:love:Thebeast27 - Auto Topping LED GrowWow, awesome journal. I found this grow journal quickly as he was using similar gear and medium. I was also introduced to the work of other members through his journal including Atrain, Budworshipper, Cannafan, Spart, SonicDif, 420Amard and Dennise. I will be taking his advice on strain, germination, pot size, medium, topping and watering.
:love:Atrain - A-Train's Advanced Autoflower Feed Schedule— big thanks for this easy to follow nute and watering plan. I invested in the BioBizz nute range before I read his Advanced Nutrients thread (Doh!) but I'm hoping to use his schedule by inserting like-for-like BioBizz replacements. I will also be using his tips for water preparation using a bubble stone.
:love:SweetSue — Medicinal grow and processing guru. Her reputation precedes her.

If anyone in bold above has had that creepy feeling that someone is watching them — it was only me reading your journals. There were others and I apologise if I've left anyone out. Thank you all.


I have my first ever grow going at the moment: - 4 x Northern Lights Auto (Royal Queen) and 1 x Blue Mammoth Auto (Barneys Farm). They are in late flower and will probably be harvested in 2 weeks time. They suffered from many setbacks through equipment failure and ignorance. I have solved the equipment issue .

Lessons learned from first grow:
· Strain: I've taken on board thebeast27's love of Dutch Passion autos. Chosen two strains known for their plant size and longer flowering-time. Big lesson - Fast growing plants will be bigger at 14 days therefore respond better to being topped. The longer flowing-time means they will have longer to recover from topping and have enough time to take advantage of its benefits.
· Germination, Pots and Soil: for my current grow I used a self-watering, heated germination gadget (love a gadget) and it worked really well with a seed plug. This time I'm going to soak the seeds overnight in warm water first (until tap root breaks through), then pop them in a seed plug in the germination gadget. Once they sprout 1st true leaves then straight into 15L Smart Pots.
· Topping: If all goes to plan and the plants are looking healthy and thriving, then I will top at about 14 days at 3rd or 4th node.
· Nutrients and Watering: On my current grow I did not use nutes until a few plants started showing signs of deficiencies. I'm not experienced enough to diagnose deficiencies with any certainty so for this grow I'm hoping to prevent instead of treat. Going to try follow thebeast27's and Atrain's tips on watering - every other day / every day as required — increase over time — no runoff.


Schedule: my current girls need to finish and clear the tent space but here is an estimate of what will happen when in this grow - fingers crossed everyone

· 27/12/2017 - Order seeds - tick
· 29/12/2017 - soak overnight in water - tick
· 30/12/2017 - pop them in a seed plug in the germination gadget
· 01/01/2018 - Day 1 - Sprout on New Years Day (that would be nice)
· 14/01/2018 - Day 14 - Top
· ??/??/2018 - Day ?? - Harvest
Hey this is my first grow and first time on a forum let alone 420magazine (apart from any research done before i put seed to soil). And as it goes Im using bio-biz all mix soil and plant magic+ nearly full nutrient line. I realise this grow is probably finished by now but I will be reading and look forward to seeing how they turn out plus anything else that comes after. Peace
 
Oh yeah....I'm just going to sneak through here, while no one is watching......... :cool: (yep I'm still here.....can't get rid of me)

Gonna take one of these.... :rollit:

Howzit Bilbo - great to have you along, never too late dude. Nice to have another BioBizz user around - we can learn from each other as we go. I've learned so much during this grow from more experienced gurus because I started a journal - and I'm sure you won't regret it either. I'll be using the same soil and nutes for next grow so stay tuned.

I'll be over to catch up on your Playing Catch Up journal soon - hope you smash it.

Glad you're still here dude - didn't recognise you in your sunglasses disguise :cool:
Jeez man - rough luck - help yourself to as much :rollit:as you need bru. :ganjamon:
