New member long time grower in Autopots

[jujuweed]

Its nice to have a rewarding hobby.

It is and I have respect for the older guys especially the ones that have been doing it when it was illegal. I think the excitement for me is breeding and finding another hype strain that most people can enjoy more than anything.

I'm going to leave breeding to the pro's. Its a lot of work to come up with stable genetics. There are so many new strains to try and grow, for me that's enough. I have thousands of seeds, more if I sweep up some. Some would be awesome others would be full of seeds. I don't want to waste my time growing out a plant with more useless seeds that will most likely hermi on me.

Thanks for the welcome, Things seem slow here.Where did all the growers go?

The flower pics look excellent!

There has not been a lot of traffic, but there are a few of us that have been around for a while and still keep an eye on this forum.

Those flowers are absolute fire how do the autpots work exactly? Does it flood on a timer? How long can you leave them without having to top up or do any maintenance on the system. Great looking system you got going bro

Hey thanks, Autopots sit in a tray that is controlled by a float valve and fed through a reservoir. I feed the res every 2-3-4 days depending on their cycle. I use a Promix type , peat based grow medium mixed with added perlite for a 60/40 ish split. A very simple system once you learn your nutrients feed and give them what they want when they want it.

Update, I flipped my girls to 12/12- 2 days ago, a lot later than I had planned I believe my 2 Strawberry Purps are over 6 weeks in veg. I got them all transplanted to my Autopots and my feed is 4/4/4/4/1 + 1tsp epsom salts...That's Micro/Grow/Bloom/Diamond Nectar/Rapid Start in ml/gal.

I took 4 cuttings off 1 Strawberry Purps with the intention of planting all in one Autopot and flipping to flower once they start to grow roots, hopefully in 1 month from today I'll flip them

Hey bro, welcome! Those buds you grew look amazing. Out of the strains you’ve grown, which one did you like best? Do you have seeds from any of those strains?

Another question: at 73 years old, how does cannabis affect you? Does your age have any impact, or do you not have any issues in that regard?

What strains do you have in your inventory right now—anything that works and that you’ve found effective for anxiety? And any strains that help with pain? If I had to choose between taking pills or using cannabis, I’d go with cannabis 100%. We recently experienced a very strong earthquake, and the situation in the country is delicate. Anyway, in a new post I made on the forum, I explain a little more.

Earthquake? If you are from Venezuela I know its risky to smoke cannabis over there.

On June 24, a double earthquake struck Venezuela, causing a major disaster that claimed many lives.

Fortunately, God protected us, and we are witnesses to that.

In many countries where there are restrictions, smoking cannabis is risky, but that doesn’t stop people from doing it. Rather, we are part of raising awareness and promoting cannabis culture in some way. I’ve been growing cannabis discreetly for over 20 years, and since I started, I’ve never bought cannabis on the street again; now, all my responsible consumption is based on what I grow myself.

Glad to know you are safe and healthy. I'm from Trinidad and Tobago and I have been to Venezuela twice. Have been told cocaine is more socially acceptable over there for some weird reason and to never even give a hint I smoke Marijuana. I have been to Merida and it seems the people there are more chill and openly acceptable to use cannabis =.

If you send me your address my friend I’ll get some beans out to you friend

I’m going to wait a few days because we’re still reeling from what happened in the country, and I’ll send you the address via private message. The only seeds I’ve received—and that are delivered directly to my home—are those sent by certified mail, and almost every time I have seeds sent to me, I ask the guys to be discreet and disguise the envelope or letter.

What strains do you currently have seeds of? Are you in Canada? Since cannabis is legal there, you have the advantage of being able to work with it without the restrictions I face in my country, but I’ve still been growing discreetly for years.
