Best approach, Keep It Simple. Too often a lot of us growers want to do more, push the boundaries further, but usually less is more. Especially in this beginning stage. Water moderately, keep humidity high(i like to put a cup over mine with a hole for air and mist the cup occasionally to keep it high in the 1st several weeks), don't go high on nutrients especially with a young plant and with an autoflower. With light, i think all living things benefit from sleep so I'd keep it at a 20/4 or an 18/6.
And when it starts flowering defoliate the bottoms of leaves/branches/budsites that are in the shade, you'll usually get bigger top buds.
Good luck on the 1st grow.βοΈ

If you haven't yet put a tray or something under your pot, not required immediately but will catch run off and help you keep your tent clean.

70-80% humidity at this stage, 2-3 shot glasses of water right at her stem to help force that taproot down before out. mist topsoil so it stays moist, and watch her bloom my friend! Happy growing! π

Small tent, how to make northern lights and amnesia haze work!?Small tent with northern lights and amnesia haze. How to keep it tame?

New DWC setup, pH ppm rising, water lowering. Should I top with fresh water and pH or wait to see if it is relatively stable first?I've attached the first few days of measurements since the roots hit the water. I take measurements every 24 hours and the backslash separates bucket 1/2. Does it looks like I need to top up already or should I wait for a more dramatic change? Thanks everyone!Week 3

What have I done wrong and right?I'd love some critical looks at my plants, there are two in this grow. With only a few weeks left, I don't think there is much I can do to really improve things. But, please look at my pictures and tell me what you see wrong and what I should have caught. THANKS! π6y ago

I used some old ass soil hopefully itβs ok , since I have no clue what or where this soil is or came from.Yo I had decided to do what someone who commented (sorry forgot who) on me to do which was to get some older soil and make a barrier around the peet pellet in between the Ocean Forest Soil. She was kind of droopy afterwards πbut the next day she is all perky and she has grown.Week 3
