They are purples, so less intense than Hps or white leds so maybe thats ok. The simple rule for lights is put you're hand by the plant tips. If you're hand is uncomfortable than the light is too close to the plant. I've had my led closer than 12" so you might be ok.
Not “asshole-ish” at all. He just suggested you do some reading before growing. Which I don’t fully agree with, read as you grow. No amount of reading can give you actual experience.
Don't let this discourage you. There are a lot of factors at work here... First of all, you may have done nothing wrong at all. I popped 8 autos last spring and all of them grew into nice big plants other than my northern cheese haze. It stayed small and didn't yield anything really. It also produced a few immature seeds. It was germinated at the same time, in the same way, in the same tent as all the others. Give it another go... Autos are something that has been "bred by people" nowhere in nature will you find big potent autoflowers that produce good yields of prime bud. Every now and then you may run into an auto seeds that doesn't "auto flower" or one that is just an ugly little runt that was a waste of time. Using reliable proven genetics is a good way to avoid this but it's still not a sure thing.
i don't want to talk about that i just want to hear advises about growing, only thing is that it's not nice to tell someone something like that. you can tell it by his texting style. it would be a whole different story if he would be like: hey man not trying to be a jerk but you should've learnt more about growing if you haven't and yeah here is the link of the thread that might help you. but instead he went like: 1-educate
i think i will get photos on my second grow since autos don't forgive mistakes. thx man
Snowflake!
Such a useless comment.
dude i get you're butthurt rn. no need to expose it. so go do your job if you don't wanna help
My god you are soft and need to toughen up a little. I fucking guarantee if he said it the way you typed it, you’d still be upset.
i've actually had that kind of comment
i've actually had that exact type of comment and i wasn't mad at all cause he gave me an actual advise. this guy right here is telling me that i shouldn've grown before i didn't get an education. it was more like correction, not advise.
Well in some ways they don't forgive mistakes... But in other ways they are more forgiving than photos... I have some photo seeds but probably won't run them because they aren't as easy as the autos...
could you perhaps cite an example to illustrate this point?
Well photos are more sensitive to light leaks.. if you get a light leak with an auto it's no big deal. If your electricity goes out for a few hours it could potentially cause a lot of problems with a photo grow...
Size.... I can grow 10 2 foot plants on my patio with no issues other than smell.
Grow a pair.
No need to argue with yourself on when too flower
Top point about power outages. I lose power on a monthly basis from storms, i would be screw with photo's
That’s a very solid point I never considered. Thanks guys, didn’t mean to come off as a d, was honestly curious
Me too... That's why I am leaning towards just running autos and dropping the photos. It sucks because I still have a lot of photo seeds I'd like to run.
