New Grower starting with and ending on

[drgreen]

airpots and leds in a small 80x70 tent, basicly im starting the short flower strains first so this is what im doing

week 1 plant auto chemdog (small plant and finnishes 65days)
plant dinamex (finnsihes around 70days and quite small)
week 3 plant Think different and automazar (the big ones)

week 8 ill chop the chem and dinem and let the other 2 fill the tent (they wil be on week 4 by this time)


sound good?

any 1?

Sounds like a great game plan AT!! BUT, if you chop em that early, you will loose some on the yield and potency, IMO. Most autos go 10-12 weeks. If you go by what the seedbanks say, you will loose both. I normally let my 60-70 day strains go to 75-80 days.

I agree with Briman, 8 weeks will likely be too soon to chop the first ones. Yes, I know the seed banks say they will be done by then, and they can be if you switch to bloom nutes as soon you see pre flowers. But your yield will suffer. To get the most out of them you need to keep them on veg nutes until vertical growth stops, usually during week 5-6. In the end they will likely take a minimum of 10 weeks but more likely 11 or 12. Check the links in my signature for more information on the auto life cycle and when to harvest.

ok so i can pospone the other 2 for an extra 2 weeks ,

what im worried about is the mazar and td over growing the tent witch i know they will and pushing the other 2 out,

the others ive picked are smaller plants and from diarys ive seen ppl taking them down around week 8 n 9..

but so week 8 i add ripen, and week 10 i chop ,

so.. the td and mazar are gona get big .. so i guess LST wil help me keep it all in , aslong as i finnish them before the td and mazar flowers get masive i dont mind lol, i need the yield out but i need quality too its medical for me, i need as much as i can get asap :S so hard to get it in lol

 

[Wait what?]

My auto chemdog is 70 days today and still pushing out fresh bud
