Drew9893started grow question 5 years ago
First time grower here I’m on day 6 after germination and planting in soil. Are they looking good? I’m using fox farm trio and also have kangaroots, does anybody have a good nutes schedule for Autoflower? Temp is 79-83 humidity maintaining around 40-45 soil ph is 6.5

Auto plants and feminized are both Cannabis so they don't require night and day nutrient schedules.. When growing in soil a good rule of thumb is too wait till the third week or so.. You'll see deficiency easily and you have a lot of nutrients in the soil already. feeding early rather then late is one of the biggest auto flower mistakes newbies make.

Hey buddy :-) Your plant looks great 👍😎 When fertilizing you say less is more 👍. Autoflowering cannabis growers use growth fertilizer from germination (or a few days after) and give it in increasing concentration until flowering begins, depending on the age and need of the plant. When the first preliminary flowers appear, we change the nutrient solution and give a mixture of 50% growth base fertilizer and 50% flower base fertilizer for a transition period of one week. After this week the plant will switch to 100% flower fertilizer, I hope I could help you, let it grow and keep it up 🙏🏻🌱💪🏻

They are looking good so far. It is a bit hard to see details under the purple lighting. In the future, I recommend taking pics under either natural light or under some sort of white lighting to allow more details to be seen. Seeing as you are in soil you shouldn't have to feed them anything for a few weeks which is when they should start flowering seeing as they are autos. I would basically wait until they start showing signs of being a little hungry and then feed them lightly increasing the dosage slowly until you see nute burn or other signs of overfeeding. I would start at half the dose of what the nute manufacturer recommends. The kangaroots is mostly just a microbial inoculant so I would use that at full strength for the best results. I doubt kangaroots will over feed your plants. Some autos are light eaters and some are heavy eaters, it all depends on the genetic lottery. That's why I suggest starting light and working up. Your temps are a tad high but as long as the plants don't look stressed it should be fine. Humidity is lower than what many people recommend for seedlings, but I've grown is similar and lower humidity levels and never had an issue. I personally feel its better for humidity to be too low vs too high as high humidity can cause mold growth later in the grow. I hope this answer helps you!
