after the 5 days all are sprouted through. Update: first full week out of the soil with just minor water added with a pH of 6.3 from the sink. The Do-Si-Dos didn't sprout with normal leaves but is starting to come along so we shall see how she does. The others are coming along fine so far (fingers crossed)

No nutrients started yet, water at 6.5 pH. Do Si Dos still smaller than other two but looks ok. This weekend will perform LST by bending the top over. I also have two Candy Cain Auto that I started at the same time that are about the same size and development as the others but they are in 5 gallon pots. I am testing over all growth between the 3 and 5 gallon grow conditions. The 5 gallon cloth with the auto water bases are keeping the bottom of the soil damp so far so they take a bit less water. When i am sure the roots are down to the bottom i will fill the reservoirs.

Had a minor oops on one of them, broke the whole top off, still bounced back as i couldn't repair it as it snapped right at a point of the fan leaves. It is coming back very nice. Started nutrients at 1/3 of the dose every other watering. Raised the light up and went to 75%. When they get use to it i will lower it a bit closer to the canopy after i see how they like it. So far the grow is doing ok. I also am trying 2 Candy cane auto's in 5 gallon cloth pots with the ac infinity auto water pots and those are a bit larger than the others.

Day 33 from seed into potting mix. Looks like they are on their way to start pre flower. Nutrients at half the recommendation and light roughly 700- 900 ppfd from the canopy.

Day 49 from seed. All flowering and minor leaf tucking for bud sites. Light still at 75% just adjusting level from the canopy. Adding a bit more nutrients for each watering.

Day 60 from seed, everything looking ok but the Apple fritter looks to be a bit of a popcorn style bud. Still time left to see if it fills in

You'll have mixed results. Autos can be tricky. No stress is the key in veg stage. No defoliations until you get near the pre fower stage. And you should be golden jst treat it like a fem after the flip. + micro nutes for the RR. Good luck hope you've a good experience.
