What's goin on guys! Welcome to Bytown Grower! This is my FIRST time EVER growing marijuana. Any criticism/tips are welcome, as I could use the help along this adventurous journey. Being my first time, I wanted to try a totally organic grow from start to finish using Autoflowers. I chose autoflowers (Ruderalis) because it is apparently a good starter for beginners who are interested in learning more about growing. I have 3 Critical Kush Autoflowering Feminized Seeds from Growers Lab. Plant Sex: Autoflowering Feminized Cannabis Species: Indica Flowering Time: 60-70 days Skill Level: Easy THC: 21% CBD Level: 3-10% Size: Medium Yield indoors (per meter squared): Up to 500g Here is my current grow set up with tools: 20"x20"x36" Stealth Box Powder Coated Steel Box (with Highly Reflective White finish to maximize light) Full Spectrum/Bright White LED Quantum Board-100W / 3000k (custom designed Quantum Board using Samsung Top Bin LM301b LED’s) Carbon Filter (certified Australian carbon) 2 Gallon Cloth Pots Quiet Fans Hygro-thermometer Locking Cabinet Lighting Timers Seedling Dome Titanium Coated Stainless Steel Scissors Long Neck Watering Can Spray Bottle Honeywell QuietSet Oscillating Fan Westinghouse Humidifier H2O - Labrador Natural Spring Water Gaia Green Fertilizers Gaia Green Organic Living Soil Pro-Mix Organic Herb & Vegetable Soil Miracle-Gro Moisture Control Potting Mix Moisture Warmth & Darkness Procedure: 1) Left in an open jar of Labrador Natural Spring Water for 18 hours (Germinating Time in open Jar: 8:45pm Nov 10th - 2:45pm Nov 11th, Temp: 22°C, RH: 60-70%) 2) Placed paper towel on ceramic plate 3) Poured seeds onto paper towel and folded the paper towel over creating a "burrito" 4) Poured off excess water from ceramic plate and drained for 60 seconds or until water stopped dripping 5) Placed ceramic plate in a DARK open room to allow moisture, warmth, and oxygen 6) Checked/sprayed every 6 hours to ensure paper towel didn't dry out (Spray to moisten only, DO NOT DROWN) November 13th: All seeds cracked and had 3/4" taproots developed Seedling Planting Procedure: 1) Filled grow tray with Gaia Green Living Soil (1-0-0) 2) Lightly moistened Living Soil prior to planting 3) Planted seedlings a finger-tip in length into soil with taproot down 4) Placed humidity dome on top 3) 24 - 48 hours later, the seedlings started to break through the soil

My (Critical Kush) auto's are starting to flower. Do I continue to use my other Gaia Green ferts until the buds actually develop? Or do I need to start feeding it Gaia's power bloom now?

Like NorCal said, and im just adding a lil something that you probably already know, but it don't hurt to repeat. 😇 Gradually decrease the veg nutes as you gradually increase the bloom nutes. Going ⅛ ⅙ ¼ ⅓ ½ ⅔ (dose) on the bloom overtime. While doing the oposite with the veg nutes ⅔ ½ ¼ ⅙ ⅛ 0% (dose). You could start gradually reducing the veg by now while waiting for the first big mass of pistils to pop up so you can then start introducing the bloom nutes. Stay lit growmie and good luck.

Based on my NPK nutrient test, the results seem to range from medium to high. Will I damage or ruin the plants if I feed it power bloom once there are more apparent pistils?

A living soil takes care of itself, all you need to do is top dress with some more gaia green every 4 weeks. In flower you should be using gaia 2-8-4 bloom @ 1 tablespoon per gallon of media. Happy growing.
