Maximizing space growing auto flowers

Turbo420started grow question 5y ago

My question is in regards to maximizing space in my tent. As you can see I am working in a 2x4 tent. To maximize use of space; I have pondered maybe doing (3) 3 gallon pots, or upping the twoplants to 5 gallon pots. Or is two plants in 3 gallon pots a good plan? Thanks growmies

I also have a 2 x 4 tent and have already grown 3 times with 8 air pots of 8 liters and still managed to get around 400g each time. I'm currently working with 4 x 15-liter pots with a scrog net. But I think I’ll go back to the 8 pots after this. Hope this helps you out, happy growing!

I would use 3 gal pots and you should be fine given the space that you have. Good growing.

I would do 3 but would not go past that, autos are a bit tricky getting them to the area of coverage you want because they flower when they want and some genetics like cream mandarin grow super short

Weird Autos (RQS NLA, same strain) still vegging day 50. Only some preflower, but nice plants. WHAT would YOU do?!This is the most unpredictable auto flowers I've ever had. It will be 50 days soon and only preflower on one plant. Ive used a 12/12 light schedule on autos before. Should I try this on these plants? If, so keep it 12/12 untill the end? No turning back to 20/4 when they go?

Autoflower cicle 24/00 our 20/04 Good Morning. I have a big doubt about the autoflower light schedule. in the state of vega I can maintain a 24/00 light cycle like this until the end of the flora. or the 20/12 bara both? because I want to remove as much of the strain that would be a magnum from budhha seeds. 27l

Smallest plant in the world. When do I pick it? Much faster flowering time to normal plants. (half posting for lols)You'd be hard pressed to find a smaller cannabis plant anywhere in the world. So.... I had issues with the roots when it was in the rockwool, was going to do DWC, decided to put in soil due to issues. It's taken like 3 weeks to flower to this stage, not sure when to pick it.

Looking for clarification on the Flush time required for a RDWC grow? I have read this can be as little as 2 days of just plain water but should this also include CalMag if I am RO water? I assume the standard root rot treatment continues? i.e. OxyPlus, HydroGuard, Phytoff?Thanks
