JohnCH I cloned this from my Auto Speed Bud that turned out to be not so speedy. I figured it would be interesting to see what happens with it. I've got it outside for now with no real fertilizing other than a dash of Tiger Bloom every once in a while - seems to be doing OK. From what I remember the donor plant was real picky when it came to fertilizing.

JohnCH Its doing OK this week but there are some odd things going on with it - I assume these are from being grown outdoors because I didnt see anything like this inside. I gave it a feeding with some Tiger Bloom because it looked like it could use some nutrition. It has some weird mildew-ish looking stuff on it and some spots on the leaves. Any Clues???? I guess we'll see! I'm just going to let nature take its course on this one as its more of an experiment than anything.

JohnCH I just let nature do its thing - with a bit of cal mag & tiger bloom that is - but I haven't taken any action on the possible bugs and that weird white stuff. I was curious to see what would happen and was willing to sacrifice this thing for my curiosity (based on the quality of the donor plant this seemed a fair trade). But it doesn't look like its come to that. Although it does have a few spots from some possible bugs and some leaves turning yellow-brown much like its mother did toward the end, its rather healthy . I checked out the trichomes and they are all cloudy with a few ambers sprinkled in there ... BUT I don't see all that many orange hairs yet. Do I wait for more orange hairs or harvest based on trich cloudiness???

JohnCH Attack!! Anyone know what this is?? Bugs? That white stuff? If you look close at the 1st pic you can see some white spots on it. This happened over the last few days, I was looking at it over the weekend and it was fine. Its interesting how it only got one bud, I wonder what its plans are for the others! Maybe I should pick this now and cut my losses.

Chopped her down. Got 2 buds in the garbage and 1 left. The last 2 shots are of the bud I'm keeping .. Gonna give it another look to make sure there is nothing nasty in there (not that I'm certain of what I am searching for :) I'm no too upset about the loss - this was an experiment of sort anyway plus I'm sitting on 8 jars of buds curing as I type :) I've learned a few things: You can indeed clone autos - they wont grow to 6 feet, but it looks like the yield could be more than if you left the branch on. I wonder if this is because they continue the donor plant's time line or if they spent majority of their finite life on establishing roots and such. Keep an eye on these plants (especially outdoors) - bud rot doesnt mess around and moves fast! If I would have realized the symptoms sooner I could have save a cola ... Oh well - live and learn and grow more buds :)

I was told closing an auto would be no good because it shares the same time line as the parent will have to see what happens with this good luck

@biggreens420, Exactly! I thought the same thing. It does however share its parent's not so speedy budding timeline though.

Hello there! id suggest a large pot the size of a Bear hug ( as big as your arms are in a circle) transplant in clean soil than a nice brew of Kronic T ( Comfrey Plant steeped in water over a few nights) water your baby with this the nutrients are NPK 1.8-0.5-5.3 with calcium and magnesium. This kind of brew stays in your soil for a long time and also will be great with your bloom juices. Just one jug of brew would do, it would bring your girl back to health in no time. Peace an Happy growing!
