what was the final weight ?
Indoor My Autoblueberry experience
- Thread starter CDK_Automatic
- Start date
as for reflective surface material I've been in the mind of using Mylar rapping paper, it reflects all the red, blue, and uv. I used 4 tubes of 48"fl, over her, 2 tubes of daylight, and one each Black light for UV and a Kitchen for red.
Harvested about an oz., at 12 1/2 weeks, I might of got more weight if I'd waited a bit more, but i had about 50% clear trichomes, with a few ambers turning in. I'm thinking it might have gone 14 weeks, DP said approx. 10 weeks, this one wasn't even fully budding yet at 10 weeks.
Yeah man my DP BB took closer to 14 weeks, the first one i chopped a bit too early (approx 12 1/2 weeks) and the second is just perfect in terms of bud density with about 30% amber trichs! I wonder if the later finish is a phenotype or a product a stunted growth earlier on due to pH perhaps? i know my last grow was receiving feedings at about 8 pH, once again turned out nicely, but it did take a while. This is the number one thing i've changed for my upcoming grow as I will be using the amended water technique which I'm really stoked to see the improvements on. Lighting may also be a factor on the little buddies... What are you growing now dude? any changes in mind?
I've got a Trans Siberian at the 6th node now, and I've been thinking of super-cropping it if it decides to out-grow my space like the autoblue did. I noticed that after I stole test bubs the remaining ones on the branch exploded.
Right on man I know I'm not the only one would be interested in seeing some more pics of exploding buds, once I get a camera I'll let ya know what's going on in my tent.
Which super-cropping techniques did you have in mind?

pinching out top growth to inhibit further growth up.
though I may just try throwing the next one in the dark for 48hrs and see how that works.
If I pinch out any tops on this next one I'll take a series of pics and post them for you.
my TSA as of today....

Looks happy dude, I'll be interested to see the results of that pinch as I've never seen it done on auto's, I know C.K successfully topped one of his auto cheeses...
What are you looking to achieve by putting it in 48 hours of darkness?
