first time grower looking for some info
Trying to start my first grow at some point and autos seem like the way I want to go. However I have been trying to do some research with very confusing results.... my goal is to have like 4 or so plants with a dry weight of about 14-20 grams per plant. Preferably smaller plants, in the 20" range at Max. Is that a reasonable dry weight for that small of a plant? Are the crazy chemical additives needed for autos? I read that some say the potency is there for autos, others say that they're not up to par with photos yet... are they comparable in potency? Are they stable? Or are there very many good batches as well as bad grows? Been trying to answer these questions but not very much in depth info was achievable. I personally prefer the couch lock type buzz for pain as well as sleeping issues. Are autos for me? Or not really?
been growing autos awhile..very easy to grow.something small and strong would be mossys jems--at 9 to 14 inches or so.i have grown 20 at a time in a 2x4 area--anywhere from 12 to 40 grams a plant--usually 12 to 20 grams per.i have grown out 12 strains with another 4 strains going now---i only use promix---5-1-1 after 10 days and dloombuster from lowes to bud them out--cheap and easy
How r u growing, inside, outside, soil, hydo????

inside under clfs--inside under 2 150 hps--inside under a 400 hps and outside----with promix with all
Autos work fine but go with what you want and just bend it and throw into flower when you are ready. That is my plan this time, I am going to start to bend them soon and when they are about basketball size I will throw them into 12/12.
By bending them I will have a few, if not several, growing straight up, like an lst.

Goal is inside, under cfls, in soil. Promix easy to find? Are there different varieties within the brand? Shooting to keep it around 2x3. I'm seeing a lot of seeds saying bud is like 8-15%, is that worthy of couch lock effect? Particular background I should be looking for as far as strain to get this effect? Was planning on just 24/0 them, is 12/12 better?
Double post. Sorry.

If you have a hydro or gardening store in your area, check it out. they'll most likely have everything you need. Fox Farms Ocean Forest is also another good soil medium.
Autos, just like photos, can turn out great. But also have the possibility of going bad. It all depends on your marijuana cultivating skills. Don't overthink it. It's a weed after all. Just wants to grow
True. But I don't think I could handle photos and I don't want to toss a ton of cash out then just get wrecked with useless plants lol. Oh and another question I had was are all autos female? Trying to figure out how many seeds I would need. Males and hermies possible? If so how likely? Ugh. I think I'm thinking this out to hard lol....
Well autos typically cost more than feminized Photos. I'd peruse some seed bank sites and see what they have for femmed autos and go from there. You will drive yourself crazy overthinking it. Just get the seeds and get to growing. You will figure it out along the way. Maybe practice on some bagseeds while you are waiting on your beans to arrive that you order.
