Autoflower Thread & Resource Guide

[RandomLuck]

lets hope hay lol i think its my laptop mate il try again abit later my ak47 are about 3ft tall and got so amazin buds on them how many plants do u rekon i could do under a 600w hps bro

i belive for a 600 watt setup, you would want 4X4 ( L x W ) It might be 5X5 ( L x W )

best bet, is to fill her up and see how many plants u can fit in that space. ( with having enough room for the plants to fully mature )

i cant give you an honist answer to how many i would put under a 600 watt hps, because i do not have one, nor have i grew autos under one.

KolorBlind ( the creator of this thread ) had 8 female auto's under 150 watts of hps, they looked like they came out great. ( use this as a ?? estimate ?? )

They do Tx and I even sent cash; they are in England so they don't take international money orders. I was concerned about it but wanted the MTF's bad enough to risk it and they came through for me. I have to say that the stealth was even better than Nirvana! So far, I'm not overly impressed with the germ ratio but they did give me 12 seeds of the MTF and 13 of the Lowberry so I guess that helps compensate for the low germ rate. It's probably just a genetic thing tho or it could be fresh seeds. I have one plant coming up that just got it's true leaves yesterday. I also got some Orange candy floss seeds that I'm anxious to give a go but they are not autos.

cash? sounds bit shady but i could always use credit like i did for attitude the germ rate was great all popped but the male to female ratio was horrible 1 out of 10 were female let me know how those mtf's are coming along really interested in those i got a friend that has some blue thunder matanuska mint and yumbolt seeds but they are a couple of years old so idk if they will germ and he had romulan too which i really want he has old school strains that he grows still really good though i might give them a try pretty soon looking to get some new strains

sounds good the Best way to learn is from personal experence

keep us updated when you get around to setting it up!

edit

added a picture, not sure if i already posted it... i went back a few pages and didnt see it..

the free seeds i got ( left pack ) seems to have 2 seeds that i dont think will grow.. infact one of the Thai skunks look immature... why would a seed bank keep immature seeds? ( you cant really see it in the picture... but top left Thai super skunk is kinda white and smaller then the rest )

oh nah, lol i wish, they were freebies

but the ones on the right ( what i paid for ) all seemed fine and i plan on breeding them

lol i was hopein was guna say yea lol how do u clone a plant mate any ideas

So I have a few questions, going to start some EasyRyders.

I have an 8bulb T5 flouro unit and a 1000wHPS; Should I only use the flouros the first 3 weeks then add the 1000HPS?

I am using Co2, should I leave the controller on 1500ppms for the whole 20hours of light?

I am under the impression that I should only use root nutes (i.e. voodoo juice and jump start) during the first 3 weeks, then add to bloom nutes after 3 weeks... What ppm should I start off with of bloom nutes, and what should my peak ppms be during the middle of the bloom phase (i.e like it's usually 1400ppms or so with normal plants 4-5 weeks into flowering.)

 

[atxbudgrower]

you cant clone autoflowers they "skip" the veg stage which when you clone also its a bitch to train them or super crop them cuz they flower at week 4 so you have a small time frame to do anything with them really they just flower and grow so fast

 

[greenearth5]

would it yield more to grow an auto and clone it?

 

[atxbudgrower]

you cant clone them

 

[murtymaker]

Hey lil help guys?

 

[greenearth5]

okay.. i missed the "cant" part and read it as "can" thanks mate

 

[atxbudgrower]

no worries

hello mate yea id put them under the t5 for the first 3weeks just so you dont stress them 2much and i wouldnt use any nutes till they were 3weeks old coz u might stun them wich wouldnt do them any good hope this helps

They are coming along really nice. I checked yesterday and saw a mess of little white roots popping out the bottom of the rapid rooter plug in the one with true leaves. The others that I'm germing have roots coming out (maybe with the exception of one. So the germ rate isn't bad at all - especially considering they gave me 12 seeds. I know that baby plants are not great material but I'll take a couple of pix anyway this weekend and post them.

Sending cash was indeed scary but I worried more about the mail service snatching it than the seed company. They were great to work with. I didn't want to put it on my card so I just sent the cash, wrapped it in foil and two layers of paper.

K I'm pretty set on the T5's for the first 3 weeks of their life...

Can someone give me some advise on the Co2 usage w/20 hours of light and some nutes advise?

This is my first auto grow and I really don't wanna fuck it up.

 

[atxbudgrower]

yea starting with the t5s is good with 1000watts its too much for seedlings and for the c02 ive read around that c02 should be on a few times not the whole time but again thats what i read and i have no experience with c02 im sure theres forums here dedicated for c02
