Barneys Farm Autoflower Grow. (Pineapple Express & Little Cheese)

[cairnzy]

Alright, I currently have 2 Autoflowers in a hollowed out chest of drawers lined in Diamond foil at just after 6 weeks from seed.
I have one Pineapple Express & 1 Little Cheese from Barneys Farm.
They are both under 2 x 65watt Red Spectrum CFL's
Both of the plants are in 14litre pots
Im feeding them Plagron Canna Bloom nutes and considering purchasing a bottle of advanced nutrients such as bud candy
Up till now both plants have been slow to show their sex but last week they dramatically increased growth and produced plenty of pre flowers which are now all over both of them.

Here are all the pictures i have starting from week 2 onwards (Pineapple Express on the left and Little Cheese on the right)

Looking good! Did you top them at all or just let them grow?

Advance nutrients are great products: tested approved sensizym, the magic trio lol bigbud-carboload-budblood, never tested budCandy but it's the same as carboload but better i guess, if you use Budcandy you do not need carboload!

Thanks :D
canadianhemperor. They haven't been topped I'd Rather just let thm grrow, The little cheese has stopped growing at around 45cm and the pineapple is roughly 50 cm and still growing so I had to tie her down to sttop tthe tops of the plant being burned. I'm deffinately considering bud candy, if I purchased when would I have to starrt feeding it to the girls?

Here are some picturs taken today, the plants grew too tall for the cabinet built so they have been moved to an empty closet and are now under 2 x 45watt. Red CFL'S and 1 x 45watt CFL. I have an oscilating fan on 24hours and have lined the walls again with diamond foil,
I'm have somw BudCandy ready for the next feed hopefully we will see some quicker bud development.

MMM MM those ladies are getting fat. how much longer do they have?

[bobjob4u]

What are the size of those plants. I have not tried them yet. I have not tried because they state that they are very small and low yeild like 15-20 grams a plant.I am use to critical auto's that produce 2 ounce a plant.Was wondering if you could back up and take a picture of the whole plant?What is the height and is there a lot of lower branches?

[cairnzy]

The plants aren't very tall the taller plant is the pineapple express which is waist height roughly a metre, the yeild isn't as good as photoperiod plants but they aree ok for people with limited space I'd say there will be 20+ grams from each here's a picture of the 2 togethert

They will be 10 weeks this sunday which is supposed to be the last week but I'm going to leave another few weeks untill tthe trichomes are mostly cloudy or amber because I think they've been slowed downin the first few weeks due to burning the tops of the plants on the bulbs.

My last grow i had 2 blueberry clones that were a stressed pretty bad during flowering . At the time of that i didnt know that by stressing them the ready date would have to be pushed back because of recovery time.Needless to say the resulting smoke was ... meh.:wtf:

[bobjob4u]

they look good. After looking at the pineapple express.With the hieght and lateral branching i am sure i could get them to yeild 1-2 ounce. The key to these auto's is light.I noticed you are using limited cfl and they look good.If you had them under a 150 hps with the cfl those buds would double. Thank you for the pics. I think i will add to my list . It will be fun to see if i can get then to yeild out like other auto's i have done. You have the right idea waiting to harvest. It will pay off. Most auto's i have done always need 1-2 weeks longer then the breeder states. My last run was sweet seeds s.a.d. Some where done in 9 weeks other took up to 11. The longer ones yeilded close to 3 ounces and the short 1-2 ounces.they were all under 36 inches tall.They were bushy and required good light to reach the many lower buds.Good plant for the money.
