Thanks for answering my question.
This is gonna be my first time running auto flowers. I'm trying to learn as much as I can to reduce any stress on the plants. Any tips on transplanting like for example do you start the seeds in it's final container/pot?
First off, thank you tremendously for running my gear, I genuinely can not thank you enough. Also, you may always hit me up directly for any reason, that's why I am here 🙂. Now to answer your questions, my man corpsey answered them well. All I can do is elaborate a bit as I agree with most everything he said. The nutrients requirements are truly cultivar specific and even more, phenotypically specific. So each plants need can and possibly will vary, as with photos. To be completely honest with you, the autos that I push out anyway, can be treated very very similar to your photo runs. The only difference for me, is I do tend to be a little gentle on the nutes to start, but by week 3-5, I've ramped up to most feed chart recommendations. They seem to enjoy a pretty non eventful first few weeks. Keep em watered and encourage a little bit of stretch. Mostly I just don't run my light as close as I would with my photos. But again, only that first few weeks. Once flower starts, hang on tight. They grow so much, so fast. It's addictive!! From a small little sprout to a four plus foot, four plus ounce finished plant in about 5 weeks is so fun! Due to space issues, I do actually run a lot of solo starters. If you're familiar with the double cup method of transplanting, then I say go for it. From solo starts to final pot though. I would not rec up potting repeatedly. Less is more, try a few without training first. Or at least let them grow and train as you go, rather than strapping a sprout down in five dif directions, and I think you'll get the best results. I'm absolutely here to help you or anyone, whenever I can. Thanks again, hope this helps, if not, let me know and I'd be more than happy to help you out with anything specifically. Be safe my friend, thank you again and again for the support!!! Kerosene Kermit is the best day smoke out there, convince me I'm wrong! (shameless plug) 🙂
