Far left...with a lid on.......

...two of Somas female photos....I wanted to put them in me 20 LTRs pots so I could put them on a saucer and leave it in standing water for the real high summer temps...
Then I remembered...those seeds cost over a tenner each...and if the ants or geckos get them...I will be suicidal.....

...so I went with the lidded pots...I'm anticipating water problems without my grapevine shading....but I'll cope when we get there.....
...you have the overhead posts and such (framing) already, can you find some shade cloth/mosquito netting or something similar to cut down the light and heat?
Ah, not running the auto Lav's yet...but it'll be good to see how the photo' version shows for comparison later

Ants and gecko's? Ants I get, they want that lovely moist soil, but what are the gecko's doing that's bad? Don't they eat the ants?
Long time not being here, I’ll prob have to drop out… mild depression, work, family life, have all combined to hinder my growth game. Haven’t gotten anything past seedling stage before they die off. I am accepting clones from a couple friends (rooted, and fresh) to at least have something to harvest in the fall. They’ll be photoperiod. Just bums me out. Gonna keep trying though. I think my plan is to keep a mother in my one tent and clone from her to flower in the other tent to keep me in plants. I’ll have a few of the clones OD as well but won’t know when germ happened. So can’t follow the rules set out for comp. I’ll be around watching though…
Jp', no worries about the clones at all mate! If you want to stay in the Comp', those are fine

Meantime, hang tough me brudda

The Germ' Curse,...it's going around -

... it visited me too for a bit, had trouble with the heirloom Skunk Nederlands... They did NOT like my usual MO, first 4 never did squat, a couple cracked and stalled that's all... Next four looked shakey too, changed the MO but still... I sowed then and prayed for days, and they finally breached the surface

They are regs too, and only 3 left so butt-clench City was my bus ride for a while there!
A few other auto's were bitchy about germ'ing as well....
The autos always seem to handle totally different outdoors. The whole pre flower and flowering stage is so dramatically different outdoors. Definitely interesting to observe.
Off to the usual smashing start Jean!

I agree, auto's have some "x-factor" behavior in them and small wonder considering how mish-mashed their genetics are from both sides, and the stages of breeding/F-gen's... there's a huge pool of variables in the mix...
