You can top and repot em bro but since theyre auto you've no control over the flowering so the topping repotting will have a detrimental effect on yeild tons of topics on it thats why I never grew em,prefer regs myself.
Its not recommended to reuse soil if u dont know what you're doing like if I didnt foliar feed n only bottle fed em nutes during veg id have propper salt buildup and the NPK and macro ratios are way off so if u cant read em youll fuck up ur grow pretty fast.

For gnats (get em alot when u reuse ur soil) ive found gnatrol to be hands down the most effective in conjunction with fly stips.
Gnatrol is powder that u add to ur water feed n it kills all the larva n the fly strips kill whats airborn one feed of gnatrol does my grow its that effective

We talking autos or super autos here. Yes you can femm autos and repot them....but why? Autos are Autos....thry are fire and forget. You cant treat them like regs. .Dont fuck with them...they grow, they flower fast and get on with it.

Alrite guys I've decided to give a grow a go. I'm planning on using a cardboard box and hang a 50watt red and blue led bulb above plant in box I don't have it set up quite yet I ordered light bulb and a lead going from bulb to wall plug. They should be here by end if next week from Amazon.
I'm growing a dutch passion Colorado cookies plant. I just put germinated seed into big pot with shamrock potting and bedding compost and a nice mix of perlite.
I tried growing lowryders in plastic greenhouse outside before but they just grew really tall with no flowering so I disposed of them doing it proper with a light this time, well try to anyway:) will keep u updated and any tips would be nice:)

Welcome to the forum brother :bigjoint:
Glad to hear you are giving it a go.

Is there any chance you could buy a 250CFL or 400wt light instead. 50wt to me seems really low.
If you need any tips ask away as there are alot of helpful people here.

I gave the lassies a topping awhile ago.
It's my first time doing it so hope it works out.

I'm hoping to veg them for along time. I usually only vegged for 2 to 4 weeks maximum. But that was because I had 6+plants.

I'm hoping these ladies will be monsters so would you think 2 to 3 months veg is worth it with 3 plants ? Il be constantly topping and feming to make alot of colas.

Ya I will try and get a cfl light instead I've been looking up on lights last hour or so and a 50watt led won't get me much yield. What's the smallest cfl bulb that would do one plant and where to purchase as cheap as possible?:)

A good start would be a 250 CFL.
If my memory serves me right they are about €50 to €70.
You can pick them up at any grow shop or online.
