Mephisto Genetics My first Autos

[austincangrow]

Hi all, long time grower trying out my first round of autos, and thought I would share.

Setup
Flower Room - 3.5x3.5ft w/ 600w HPS
Veg/auto tent - 3.5x3.5ft 600w of cobs plus mars 300 blurple. Using 300w of cobs and the blurple right now.

Conditions - 74-84f 35%RH in flower room, around 50% in veg tent. Can drop to about 15%RH when I'm not filling humidifiers.

Plants
CDLC x2 day 65ish dwc with Lucas formula
4 assed x1 day 35ish in roots original with roots nutes
Cosmic Queen x4 day 21 ish in roots original with Kind super soil

So far my experience with autos has been very interesting. I have giant 3ft monsters in dwc and typical tiny almost runty autos in soil. I have had numerous problems with the CQ, including 1 runt that never made it out of seedling stage, and early flowering on another. My CDLC is out of control, I didn't ask for a 3ft wide monster, I grew autos for quick harvest between photo harvest, but it's a beautiful plant and I'm just trying to keep up with it now. One smaller CDLC is an odd one to say the least. It has 4 different type of pre flowers, weird vegetative growth, and really won't flower. This one might have a bit of root rot, but I can't tell with the giant root ball. Was expecting to harvest CDLC soon, but yeah that's not happening.

Happy growing!

CDLC day 71 update. She is drinking almost 2 gallons of water a day and I've taken more then 2000 leaves since germ. She is a chore to keep up with!

Cosmic Queen a bit runty, could be the soil, I'm not very happy with it. Day 35

Just planted a Samsquatch, this one will be in Meph super soil.

Happy growing

I know solo cups aren't ideal, but it helps me stagger my plants. CQ went straight to 3gal, 4am and Sam got the solo cup. 4am doing much better than CQ right now.

I'm an organic hippie, I love DWC, but in all honestly it's not a sustainable grow practice. I need to get my soil tunned in for some outdoor grow this summer too. Am trying the meph super soil, and then will make my own this summer.

I also hope to try a coco grow by the end of the year. I strive to be a well rounded grower!

Happy growing
