BuddingBuddastarted grow question 6 years ago
Only grown autos before which i know are light feeders and i only started them off with plain water then root booster until a week or so old and was wondering should i do the same with these photoperiods or should they be fed more even at seedling stage?

Always start low and build up until you see a little nute burn then back off a bit. If you have an EC meter then that will be pretty helpful to gauge how much you are actually feeding em and make sure it is accurate. I just ran a batch of autos and I actually fed them full strength mega crop and they loved it. One of even wanted more potassium. So I'm not sure all autos are light feeders, but maybe mega crop is just less likely to burn in general? Either way, I would start feeding them right away. In coco, I feed a low dose of mega crop and calmag around day 3-4. I usually shoot for a combined EC of 0,5 or 250ppm. Also, just an FYI most photoperiods won't finish flowering in 7 weeks. Very few even finish at the 8-week mark. You are more realistically looking at 9-10 weeks of flowering. If thats gonna mess up your schedule Id shave the time off veg as long as the plants wouldn't be too small.

You can wait some weeks with feeding. The only nutrients you need is cal/mg because you grow in coco. But be carful at this stage and sie only a small dosage 👍
And root boosters are a really good at this stage 👌
If you plan a 7 weeks veg with 9l pots i would recommend to start with feeding (veg nutrients) in week 4 or earlier if they show signs of deficit. Start with a low dosage of veg nuts, i believe you will use the canna line? Which is a non organic nuts and with non organic nuts is less more.✌️to much will lead to a salt deposit (high ppm of the soil) which will damage your roots/ the hole plant and kill a good microorganisms (thats why i would recommend organic nuts 👍 with organic nuts its nearly impossible to overfeed the plant, the hole plants are healthier and the buds have a better quality/taste. Some people say you will have a lower yield with organic nuts, but in my experience its not true if you do it right 👌
Best wishes and good luck 😎✌️

As I'm increasing my P/K boost levels each watering, I'm ending up with lower and lower pH. I've heard it's not recommended to add silica during flowering, such as that found in GHE pH Up. Is that true or not really a big deal? If true, are there any good simple alternatives?Week 12

I have read that during the 2 last weeks before flushing, the grower would drop the humidity gradually from 45 to 25percent to force the plant on creating resigns to protect its flowers from the dryness of the climate. What do you guys think, should it be worth trying?!Week 11

Apart from saving money on the electric bill or as a method of mitigating higher temperatures. what good reason is there to not grow autoflowering varieties on a 24 hour light cycle? With a limited time to get them finished up, why not be growing them on overdrive the whole time?Week 4

At what point would you assume a seed will not germinate - I've read most will germinate within 3-5 days - but I'm curious when most people would bite the bullet and start a different seed? (This is not a concern yet - I'm only at 36 hours! I'm just impatient!)Week 1
