Auto/Photo Question

Aezur
Aezurstarted grow question 1y ago
Is it okay to start a new photoperiod plant in with two 5 week old autos? It seems like the timing would work, and it's my first photo so I'll prob need an extra few weeks of veg. I know I'll need to monitor the lights closely. Is there anything else I should keep in mind?

do you plant a 9 week vege? autos take 12-14 weeks, eh? don't trust the breeder estimates if they give a shorter timeframe. it may be possible but it is rare. photos are easier to grow than autos. the lights should be fine. DLI is the key. Whether you give 35-30DLI over 18-16 or 12 hours it doesn't matter. Just make sure the photo does not get 10+ hours of uninterrupted darkness and it won't go into flower. simple as that. i would do less overlap, but if you have to space and the light to cover enough space, it's all good. a 9-week vege will be a 1-lb plant, lol. That'll be huge.

All you need to do is run it so if your autos get light stress. Just take em out so they are in a dark room (make it so you take em out after dark etc) Autos like less DLI when in pre flower. You'll find ur rhythm I do 20-30 plants at a time by rotating.

Humidity !!! But if air exchange is good and movement inside of ten is oscillating and in two levels ( top of canopy and around root/pot area), you should be fine. Try to keep humidity in 60-70% rh level , have humidity dome for seedling, better from breathable frost fleece do yourself, than any plastic cover/bottle/cup...
