So everything is going surprising well with my first grow (thanks in no small part to this book and the many helpful folks out there). It's a small tent with 2 auto ladies - a Cheese Berry and a Jack Herer. I'm just trying to get an idea of when i could expect to harvest these babies. The Cheese is just insane from my perspective.
Cheese Berry

Jack

I put a couple lengths of string across there to help keep them from getting too close to the light. i definitely was working the LST early on....but probably could have done better! I have a digital microscope and am looking forward to looking for my trichomes....just want an idea of how much time they have. thanks!
My guess is 2-4 weeks depending on how it develops.
Hi, I would recommend you keep that girl banished to the outdoors and let nature take it's course. Never take an outside plant indoors because you are also taking ever spore, mold, bug, pest and god know what has moved into the soil indoors.
Also, when watering/feeding that outdoor girl do not use the same tools you use on the inside grow.
You need to keep the inside world very separate from the outside world or the outside will move in.
Heck, I even change my clothes when moving between outside and indoor grows.
Regarding Seedman in the UK, I ordered 10 Auto seeds from them and got an extra 6 for a 420 promotion. When they arrived in the mail there were 28 seeds of all sorts of wonderful varieties. Three seeds were Photo Period Jack Here and the rest were Autos. I plan to grow them outdoors and have two seedlings started.
I ordered 16 seeds and got 28. Winning!
So here's a more difficult question - when i bought these first seeds, Seedsman was kind enough to send a free samples of Blueberry (which i understand is like, award winning)....well i soon realized that this lady was not an auto. plus my tent was starting to become very filled....so i pulled her out and put her in my backyard. She's doing great out there, i'm in the northeast. so my question is - should i put her back in the tent after i harvest the above plants or leave her out there and let nature take it's course? i'm leaning towards bringing her in and switching up the light schedule. I've accepted the fact that she may not make it.
Yeah, i was thinking a couple weeks also. appreciated. Having a ton of fun with this little 'project'.
Looking good. Jack Herer always fades for me (senescence) and shows N deficiency, if that is any help. Percent of amber is always my indicator.
Nice looking girls! Hard to say for sure but I would guess you still have a couple of weeks or more to go. The Pistols all seem to be standing straight up and none appear to have turned amber yet.
