😀This is my 1st time at growing Autos. I've done photo period's before. I'm growing in big air pots with soil and using the Bio Biz range & Cal Mag. I see most of you guys use many different combinations of nute's. Any tips would be really appreciated. Sauce

hi mate.. i would only suggest some kind of pk booster (biotabs pk, green sensation, canna boost..) alongside your nutes.. go full strength with nutes but give them water every third watering..dont top them, mainlining or any of that shenanigans ... just do a simple lst when she tells you to do it ;) good luck mate

Looking good. Day 1 is first set of leaves which looks like your day 3 photo. Day 10 1/4 strength feed increase dose each week if she responds well. She's in a big pot go easy on the watering until her root system is bigger, Week 4 add Cal/ mag to prepare her for bloom. Seems like most issue with this will show up in week 6. Since most Cal/ Mag product have extra nitrogen go easy with it. I rarely go over half strength nutes for autos but with an organic you my be able to go higher if needed. Give her an extra pop of phosphorus and potassium end of week 6 into week 7 to get some good size out of those buds she will bulk up week 8 and 9 with extra potassium. If she's ready flush week 9 into week 10. Hope this helps it's just a general guide you need to just give her what she needs.👍

I usually don’t use CalMag until day 14 and then I start at 0.5 ml and work my way up from there. If u r in high quality soil, u probably won’t need any nutes for 3-4 weeks. Pot prefers a wet/dry cycle so don’t over water and keep the PH a little higher 6-6.8 to nurture/protect the valuable microbial life within the soil/root zone. If ur growing organic- keep it organic... natural nutes are easier to use/maintain and seem to produce the most beautiful buds without all the hassle. Otherwise, ur plant looks great, good job so far and all the best growing forward! Any questions, don’t hesitate to ask...

The usual auto tips are : 1/ Be careful of the nutrients dosage and start with 1/4 ( I don't use nuts during the 1st month then air go with the full dosage ) 2/ More light is more buds ( but too much light will increase the cal mag needs so 18/6 is good and 20/4 is enough. 3/ Avoid topping or any stress in general ( You can see that a lot of growers are topping autos with great success ) !! The best advices is to grow with your own style , your photoperiodic background is an advantage to understand the plants needs

She looks happy so far! If you are using a high quality soil then you wont have to worry about feeding for about 3 weeks. Just give her ph water until she shows signs of wanting food. She will need mostly nitrogen through veg. When you see signs of flower you want to start adding some P and K to the feed and after the flowering stretch is over then cut out most of the nitrogen from your feed and up the P K. Looks like you are off to a good start. Good luck!
