    It’s a tricky one, Loki. In my experience, if autos stall early on but don’t start to flower they carry on growing as if they’ve just been paused.

    Ya might as well keep a couple of them but which ones?

    My thinking, if chopping one, then chop them all, the dried bud from two autos this size would realistically be low, compared to the cost of electricity letting them live. Found another negative for them lol

    I was thinking along the lines
    That if the room is up and running or in two weeks it will be for the new beans . I'd be tempted to keep two .
    That way they cost you two weeks of electricity and will give you a bit of bud for a return while you're others just crack on

    Hey Vlad, I did kind of think that they would pause, I haven't pushed autos to over 4 weeks though at this size, 2 weeks maybe, but I would have had them in the last pots way before 4 weeks lol.

    As for saving one or two, I'm leaning towards the smaller of the bunch.

    Hey BG, it seems that getting it down on a post has helped, I'm going to choose 2 to save, drop them back in the 1.2 under the 250w, pop the 5 from M_C and pop them all back over to the 2.4 when the new beans are in the final pots. In the meantime, I have seen some coco blocks, 70 litres for £12.
    It needs 18 litres of pH balanced water to be made up.

    Proper annoying, last time I bought some it was like £16, but before that I was paying £12 per 50 litre bag from Amazon. If I went soil over hydro, I'd have to build my own compost, or at least start with shop soil and start building one for next year maybe. Not sure about how slow it is though.

    Quick update, this grow didn't quite work out....

    I had decided that after seeing PM on one of my plants, I chopped them all down and pretty much threw everything away and gave up on growing for most of last year.
