First Autoflower Diary

I received this seed via oregoneliteseeds.com. I started with a 2 Gal plastic pot filled with Black Gold "Natural potting mix plus fertilizer". Soil prep of Jobes 2-5-3 (3 tbsp), Down to Earth ingredients: 2oz of 0-11-0 Seabird Guano, 2 oz of 0-0-22 Langbeinite, and almost an ounce of (no brand) 4-22-0 Fish Bone Meal from Oregon Constant Gardener. The goal of this test grow was to prove if auto-flower can replace or has a place next to photoperiod plants. Jeff Lowenfels recently suggested that auto flower will become the new plant that everyone can grow on their deck. I wanted to only use items that anyone should be able to purchase and not spend $50 on nutrients. The soil medium should be able to be reused and the plant should grow efficiently spending less than $10 after the initial grow (my opinion). I usually grow in my own custom mix but I decided to buy a normal 2 gal plastic pot and fertilizers from bi-mart (enhanced with other organics - yes I did cheat a little). I am not going to supplement with artificial lighting (led shop light off/on when I move inside at night). I only receive maybe 6-8 hours of really good deck sunlight (edited- I actually looked on my deck). This seed was placed in a pod, then in the 2 gal prepared soil on 6/6/2019. It germinated on 6/10/2019.
