1 Auto Seed Challenge

[ChronicWonders.]

I’m shocked that this bean popped. Makes me feel good about the other old freebies from attitude I have. She’s made her way to soil.

She looks awfully small in that big ole pot!

I've never grown an auto but I would think a 7-gallon pot would be just the right size for most Autoflower plants, Great choice.

It’s on

I've never grown an auto but I would think a 7-gallon pot would be just the right size for most Autoflower plants, Great choice.

I usually use a 3 gallon pot due to limited space and I usually get between 28 to 36 grams dried. I’m hoping to get a couple of ounces this time at least. No topping and very little training. Just gonna let it do its thing.

I went with a 10-gallon pot because I am also testing out this new cover crop blend and primarily grow organically. Besides a few compost teas, this plant will receive water only.

[Frank Nitty]

View attachment 4351346 My package for this comp arrived today… Never grown an auto so I did some homework on what to go with. Mephisto Genetics always surfaced so they earned my business.

What was the freebie???

 

[Frank Nitty]

@Dyna-Gro / @J.James

Do we have to drop directly in to the container we plan to finish in or can we transplant and use rapid rooters?

I am setting a new 5x5 tent tomorrow just for this comp. 1 seed, 1 27 gallon container, a crap ton of coco and perlite, and a big ol’ Trellis.

Yikes!!!

 

[Frank Nitty]

Got the last of the seeds I ordered yesterday. Now I just have to pick one. Anyone have any suggestions on these?

Im a Mephisto maniac so im gonna have to go with HBSS...

 

[Frank Nitty]

Isn't 27 gallons a bit much for an auto? Now I'm thinking my 3.5 gallon isn't enough ):

RIGHT... I DON'T FEEL THAT THIS CONTEST WILL BE FAIR TO ALL PARTICIPANTS WHEN THEY HAVE TO GO UP AGAINST 27 GALLON POTS AND ONLY HAVE A 3.5 GALLON POT OR LESS EVEN...

 

[Frank Nitty]

Do we have to germinate in the growing medium we chose? - No
Do we have to germinate in final destination container? - No
Is it okay to germinate after July 1st? - No

OH OH!!!

 

[Frank Nitty]

Anyone have any last minute germination techniques they'd like to share? I only have 1 auto seed so I get 1 opportunity lol

START YOUR SEED IN A ROOT CUBE...

 

[Frank Nitty]

I germinate mine in a wet paper towel in the microwave at 10% power for 12 minutes, The seeds literally just pop open within a few seconds​

WOW... AND THAT REALLY WORKS???
