Hope it (she) gets you some great buds daTs! that sprout's a beautiful little thing.. don't burn her! with lights or nutes! or unleash the claw on her

 

[SoilGirl]

Hi daTs! Where've you been? Hope you and the girls are well! See ya.

Hows your dark devil doing curious to see how shes doing. I am also growing this strain for the first time and i have to say its one of the most prettiest plants I've grown

 

[daTenshi]

Hey guys I missed you all very much, sorry again for the 2 weeks break. Will do my best to post an update once per week.



Lets start off with Hydra. She is 5 weeks old, and today showed her first pistil
I tied her dominant head earlier, to level her a little, looks like a scrog now. Amazing how these plants recover, she was dead guys!!!

Day 21:

Day 38:

If she just showed her first pistil, guessing a week until flowering really begins

Also fed her a little vegetative food, to get her through the stretching period, she was eating off her bottom leafs.

Here is where she split:

Dark Devil, on day 18:

These are the girls left for now, Lily-pad got infested by some weird mosquitoes/gnats, she was murdered because she was also affecting the girls inside, not a huge loss because she was a hermie anyways.


Hope you enjoyed the update, and thanks for reading

It's been good, when you're busy you don't have time to whine and think of any pain so it has been a good distraction. Hope soon my schedule will get more lose, I will do my best to keep up with the updates.

Expecting Hydra to grow more from here on, since flowering is starting, least I think she will still autoflower after the incident we shall not mention

Yea Dark Devil is looking on track, had the perfect conditions, I was too busy to mess her up so I just transplanted her and gave her water! Probably why she is thriving!

Have a good week everybody

 

[Teddy Edwards]

Super update, cracking photos daT. It's good to have you back. After all, you're my nearest neighbour. That's good-looking soil too.

Hey guys Hope everybody's doing alright


Hydra day 46:

She hasn't started flowering, only showing preflowers, waiting a week more and changing the light schedule if this keeps up.

Dark Devil auto, day 26th:

Getting ready to flower, in stretching mode right now, first noticed her pistils last week.

Thanks for reading

 

[Teddy Edwards]

...and thanks for posting. Looking tickety-boo, daTenshi.

 

[daTenshi]

Any advice if to wait 7 more days to see if Hydra does autoflower or just give up and switch now. Take into consideration that Dark Devil auto is 7 days into pre-flower stage (stretching) and I don't want to mess her up by stressing with the light change. Hydra been also showing pistils for 7 days now, also not so much stretching going on, more like a photo-period plant pre-flowering, but not going into flower.

Thanks in advance!

 

[SoilGirl]

Wish I had some advice but auto's are not in my experience :S... your plants look really nice and healthy though great job!

hope you get some help with your q!

 

[Teddy Edwards]

What SoilGirl said.

 

[B A R]

I've never grown an Auto DaT, wish I could help.

 

[daTenshi]

I am seeing more and more pistils every day, didn't switch yet, can't say for sure, but think she doesn't need a light change. Also her nodes begun to alternate.

Thanks for the replies guys

Hi daT. Your plants are always such a nice shade of green! I recall reading more than once on this site that autos can go all the way at 18/6.

 

[Teddy Edwards]

Oh yes, BL's right (as usual....). I've definitely seen that their flowering is of course NOT dependant on light but on their own genetics. And thinking it through I had my autos outside for the summer and the days were waaay longer than 12 hours. (Ah, happy memories. *looks out at low cloud and rain*)

 

[daTenshi]

Sorry for the bad pics, kinda brain dead at this hour

Super Critical auto, Hydra:

Here's how Dark Devil looks:

Hey bright, thanks for taking the time to answer, yes I am on 18/6 right now, having a little more patience with her, then if still no flowering in a week will switch. She does have pistils though.


Lacking lights in there right now, it's really bad! Just now while taking pics one of my bulbs decided to die on me. I have to replace that plus add least a couple more extra, Hydra being so bushy needs some more side lighting as well.


My issue is that Super Critical being hurt as a new born, won't auto after that "little" incident. I was hoping to go 18/6 all the way.
