Glad to hear!!!! So hard to get that "right". Always got my eye on quality control haha.
Solid! Keep me posted!
So I know Photon will chime in here as well but having just run through a bunch of autos and also having read similar things, in my opinion thats false. Autos nutrient needs vary from strain to strain, just like with photos. Some are light feeders while others will need a heavier regimen.
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) 🙂
Thank you for fielding those questions, I do appreciate the help my friend. I work and talk with so many people every day, it makes it difficult to get to everyone quickly, but God knows I try haha. But as always my friend, you were well put, correct in my book, and well respected for it! Please don't hesitate to let me know if I can ever be of any help to you, thanks man!! Be safe!
123, you got it my man. The only thing I left out earlier that I do see a lot with autos. Aside from over feeding, water stress can also stunt them. They still enjoy a wet/dry cycle like most cannabis, but don't let them dry out before they've started flowering. You can fully let them droop dry with no extraordinary issues after flowering has started, but they just don't enjoy the stress early. You're solid, but if you need anything at all, hit me up. Thank you again and again, I really do appreciate you tremendously.
I knew I liked you! Good man, that's the best way in my opinion. You lift enough pots you can have it dialed in in no time haha. Well I'm going to quit worrying about ya then my man!! Haha. Let me know if I can be of any help. I do really appreciate you tremendously, take care and be safe! Keep me posted!
I hope mine turn out with some chunky buds like that!!
Watch the volume of water you use at each watering. It's possible they're getting a little too much. Keep me posted on the grow. If you run into issues, I'll happily shoot you another pack. Autos have a learning curve for sure..... Oh wait!!! I just saw something that throws up flags for me, is that a peat pot? There's your issue. Dm me and let me shoot you another pack or two and let's get another run going. You can finish this one or stop, up to you obviously haha, but a lot of times I see those peat pots holding too much moisture at the root zone and causing issues. I highly recommend peat "PELLETS" as they're super cheap and great to use, but the pots always always have issues. Sorry to be that guy, and they may power through, but I know you can get much better results, so hit me up and I'll be more than happy to help my friend.
Those aren't peat pots. Those are toilet paper rolls cut down the middle, a version of the "double cup" method of starting autos I seen on ICmag. The rolls are filled with seed starting potting mix the rest of the medium in the pot is Promix Moisture Control (Coco Coir is added). They're in 7gal fabric pots. I don't drown them with water or anything, just enough to get the surface soil wet. I appreciate the offer but right now I think everything is good, if that changes I'll let you know. Thanks for everything!
