Whats up everyone PDK here for my first Autoflowering experiance. Got all 3 auto strains from the attitude seedbank

STRAINS

Ok first we have Buddha Seeds Red Dwarf and white dwarf. both mostly indica and there suppose to be short and more compact then the other autoflowers

then i hava a dinafem roadrunner. Sad to say i dont really have that high of hopes for this one because ive heard some bad things about it(stunted growth as a seedling) but it was a freebie o and another reason i dont have high hopes is because attitude pulled the dinafem roadrunner off there site completly(wonder why?) so we will see.

LIGHTING

THe lighting schedual i have decided to go with is a 18/6. Did a little research and found that 18/6 is good for autoflowers. I dont want to go full 24/0 because i feel that all plants need a dark period

I am using 3 26w 6500k clfs for the first 3 weeks of the plants life then im gunna either use 6 26w warm cfls for the last 6 weeks or my 150 hps

SOIL/Container

I will be puting the seeds in to red solo cups for the first 2 weeks in a bat guano high in nitrogen soil mix with alittile bone meal for some strong root growth.

then i will transplant into there final home into a 3 gallon container.

The Soil mix is some organic compost and a bag of organic soil. I came up with a way to maybe maximize the nutirents for each stage of the autos short life cycle.

The bottom half of each 3 gallon bucket is goin to be a mix of organic soilmix and bone meal to help flowering stage and the top half is gunna be a veg mix of high N bat guano and soilmix. This way while the plant is still in its veg/early flowering stage it has that High N guano for extra growth.

I Figure by the time the roots reach the bottom half the plant should be well into flowering and can use that bone meal to its advantage.

Nutrients

Pretty much all my nutrients are going to be in the soil for this grow but during the flowering stage of the auto i will be using molasses as a additive to help plump up them buds. I may use Aunt Roads Compost tea in the watering time to time if i think its need.



So currently the seeds are germin as i post this tread so i will be gettin pics up and all that cool stuff like the grow room. And this is a all organic grow any questions comments or anything else feel free to post

be back with a update when my beans crack and shoot out tails. i think my white dwarf had cracked already gunna give it alittle more time to get a longer tail before i plant
