BigDaddyK Ok guys here is my complete 'foolproof' guide to growing DWC - a few people locally have asked me for this , so if I put it here you all can see , I will answer ANY questions on this thread , ppm,ph,nutrients, feel free to ask. This will be a canna grow using RHIZOTONIC ,AQUA VEGA A+B ,CANNABOOST,CANNAZYM ,PK13/14,AQUA FLORES A+B Quantities you will need 1litre Aqua vega A+B ( all the A+B come together when you buy them ),1litre Aqua Flores A+B , 250ml Cannazym,250 ml Boost, 250ml Rhizotonic, 250ml Pk13/14 400 ppm is my water baseline - I ph to 7 in my 200 litre reservoir so it can air for 24 hrs First get seed into root it cube , i put them into my heated propagator for two days , they sprout and I transfer , place on bottom of net pot , then fill with clay pebbles in line with top of cube , fill bucket with just enough water , so that when you put lid in there is 1-2inch gap between bottom of net pot and top of water ( approx 12 litres) - you can just place seed into root it cube and straight into net pot and pebbles but you MUST rip a corner off cube and push into hole - THEN LEAVE IN WARM,DARK AREA UNTIL IT SPROUTS - Next add air hose into water and turn on you should see lots of bubbles , put lid on bucket and wait . I use roughly ten litres in my buckets of water , if you have to make the ppm up to the required level , use more nutrients .

BigDaddyK Added 20ml of cannaboost so let's see what happens - this strain is so lovely just the best smoke from an auto flower I have ever had , keep an eye on water levels and ph on a daily basis and also pot now filled to top with pebbles - I always put the root it cube directly on bottom of net pot , that way the roots can touch the water as soon as possible and as the shoot grows up I fill the pot - I reckon it s probably 10-15 cm just to get over lid - watch this explode by next week !!!

BigDaddyK Changing to flower nutrients she's ready and looking green and sexy ,make sure you keep an eye on the ph and water level - she can really drink 2-3 litres a day - I top up with fresh ph water every day - and test ppm every day - do not ppm water first as you will make the reservoir to strong - 7ml of Aqua Flores A+B ( always use both parts ) is approx increase of 500 ppm - the cannazym ,rhizoctonic and boost I only add when I change the whole reservoir every 10 days .

BigDaddyK There is something magical about this strain 😏 Super easy to grow but you might need a bit of space , two of these will fill the space of 4-6 other auto flowers

BigDaddyK Today I believe is day 64 we started flush on Saturday so day 66-69 will be harvest day - I will have a look and decide - they have filled out nicely , humidity is below 50% - they smell fresh , pine woody citrus smell , very very smelly you need filters - also they have a nice supply of fresh air keeping it all ideal , enjoy the photos , if you have any questions feel free to ask 👍

BigDaddyK This is by far the strongest auto flower I have ever smoked - I welcome any seed/breeder to try to better it , it is devastating, I was supposed to do this yesterday but I tested one joint of it , then fell asleep for 3 hrs , lol , very strong smell, I love it , they should make gorilla glue air freshener , I''''d buy it , tastes very pine , decent yield .

😱 143g off the one auto!!!... there is about 4/5 weeks left on mine, 😭 I could only dream of that sort of yield.. (ps. this is my 1st grow) lol.
JieGrow
JieGrow commented9y ago
@BigDaddyK, wow! What auto do you think is the best for yield/smoke? I've never had any of these types of cannabis before.
BigDaddyK
BigDaddyK commented9y ago
@JieGrow,strongest auto flower by far is gorilla glue by fast buds , I really like the moby dick xxl by dinafem , day smoke is Mexican airlines 👍
JieGrow
JieGrow commented9y ago
@BigDaddyK, my gorilla is 5weeks old just now "under a 600w hps" 😱 I've never smoked weed from an auto before so really looking forward to it... I was thinking about doing a full white widow auto grow after this grow 🍁

witchyhour commented8y ago
@BigDaddyK, there's something about him, maybe the way his body processes oxygen, so the CO he produces feeds soelmething in the plants...I don't know, some sort of weird phenomenon! He came for a visit, spent a week as my plants' roommate, and just his close presence to them made them like double size or so. It's crazy! =D

Hey @BigDaddyK,I wanted to say that you got my vote for the diary of the month because you had very detailed description and good photos, even though you forgot to change the 'light cycle' field for the flower ;)There are very good growers here but I find it very difficult to learn from diaries with no details in the comments, no accurate age of the plants, few photos, some even have the wrong strains.I hope you keep up the high quality and attention to detail in your diaries, even though I understand many growers have several grows at the time and it is time consuming to document everything.T.
Toothless
Toothless commented9y ago
@BigDaddyK, So you leave the lights 18/6 throughout the entire grow? Cool, I never grew autos, for some reason in my mind it made sense to put them also on 12/12, but of course what the point :D
BigDaddyK
BigDaddyK commented9y ago
@Toothless, you could easily get two crops in the time of one normal grow in your setup 👍I am really impressed with your diary - it's very helpful - stick with it ,please , for me 🙏
Toothless
Toothless commented9y ago
@BigDaddyK, Thank you very much! I will do my best!:)I have limited amount of space and some other annoying constraints, so I try to have few plants, but grow each one really well to get a big yield out of them.

flecko commented9y ago
hey bud just a question what are your tips on fine tuning the humidity during the drying stage?
BigDaddyK
BigDaddyK commented9y ago
@flecko, I dry for 9 days now starting at 55% then slowly going down to about 48-50% I have a climate control machine and that is very useful, it's important not to try and dry too fast 👍 And temperature 23-25 C
flecko
flecko commented9y ago
@BigDaddyK, Thanks man I didn't realise CC machines existed as a cheap ready made product. I've been turning switches on and off like a chump.
BigDaddyK

@flecko, yeah I didn't realise until recently either 😊
