Indoor My Autoblueberry experience

[CDK_Automatic]

from day 3 to day 68.... I think I needed more light for it after it out-grew the space under the FL's. I tried supplementing with cfls, I just didn't have the lamps. It smokes like a dream, smooth, tasty, and hits you like a train. all advice welcome (I've got a TSA at 5th node now).

Nice plant. I'm going to do a DP Blueberry on possibly my next grow. I do have a couple of suggestions. Is this a closet grow? If so you can help your light situation considerably with a flat white paint on the walls or use some other reflective material but don't use aluminum foil. Also another thing that works great is to mount some floro fixtures vertically on the walls so the plant receives light over its entire length. I've grown for years without any overhead lights at all. Very nice job-plant looks very healthy

Hi, looking good. couple of questions - what size are your pots? when and what did you fert with? also how much did she stretch looking at day 21 then 68 it looks triple! reason i ask is i have 3 DP auto BB going at the moment @ day 22 and 2 are 23" and one about 19" all flowering, they are in with 3 biodiesel mass which are keeping up and 3 sweet skunk, who are being left behind. conditions are totally different (600W hps) but your beast of a plant has made me think a bit of bondage maybe in order!
great pics and thanks for sharing.
good luck.

why not use aluminium foil ?

the inconsistent and inevitably crinkled surface creates "hot spots", basically it doesn't reflect evenly

but with adequate ventilation would it be all that bad ?

 

[CannCan]

In reality probably not, i suppose it would depend on the strength of the light and the distance of the plant and the light from the reflective surface... From what I've read it seems like something to stay away from, but as said, it's probably not a huge deal rather something to add to the improve upon later list if at all... I'm sure you will come to a logical conclusion, after all the Trailer Park Boys did use it lol

well thx for the reply CannCan im doing a micro grow atma in a litle cabinet lined up with aluminium foil ,well see how that goes lol and sorry for going random on your tread CDK_Automatic what first brought me here was the amaising plants

why not use aluminium foil ?

From my understanding its because Aluminum foil actually absorbs more light than it reflects. The same holds true for gloss white paint and mirrors. I don't really understand it but thats what I came up with when I did a search on the relective properties of various material a number of years back. I use mylar in my room but I wouldn't recommend it because its impossible to clean. If I were to do it over again and for the sake of simplicity I would just paint the walls a flat white. Just my opinion.

I used a 3gallon black pot in soil, and gave it wild 16-18-12 bat guano during veg and 's Beastly blooms during fruit, I also tucked her fan leaves and even weighted side branches to keep her open for the lights.
