2 weeks into my first autoflowers help!!!

It would have let you know by wilting progressively until either death or a period of recovery resulting in loss of growth and eventually harvest(stunting), sometimes worse than others. Let your journey of life essence transference begin. Love them to death. Literally. Lol. Ultimately they end at our hands with a swift clip. And offer up their gift to the world
Thanks brother, yeah I love my girls this is my first time and I feel like shit having to put them through all that, I have classical music playing non stop in the closet and I'm always checking in on them. I'll make sure they get everything they need from this point on.

Just give them the best environment you can forget about the music and all that it's cool and all but really you should concentrate on making sure that they sit in the lap of luxury and keep it clean and give him lots of light and feed him right music isn't going to make them grow big dude what you do to them is going to make them grow big

I feel you, I know the music doesn't make much difference, but it's nice going in there seeing them jam to that Amadeus, but thanks for the tips!

So what's going on? Last update was Saturday!
Did the girls survive? There's a pool going on over here.
 
How are your little ladies doing?
They seem as they're doing good, they're growing slowly but look healthy, I took your advice and released ladybugs and put a couple earthworms in each pot. I just received my setup I didn't want to go all out on my first grow so I purchased 2 mars hydro 300's led. Wasn't expecting them to be so bright but they seem good quality.

They seem fine, and the Mars 300s are a pretty good light so they say. And I know what you mean, first time turning on my 1000w LED I was surprised. I purchased Apollo horticulture grow room glasses for under 20$ on Amazon. They make the hps orange look white/blue like Mh. I guess there designed to block harmful wave length of light. Spend Alot of time in your room and they prevent damage to retna. Anyway, all you gotta do now is feed and wait. Here's some orange cookies I got drying.IMAG3536.jpg IMAG3536.jpg he's

Haha I noticed that, every time I go in there and check on them I come back out and see everything in green. They seem to be doing much better then under the cfls, when do you reccomend I start feeding, I'm going to go with the general hydro like you said, is there just a flowering version they sell since these are autos, or which one should I go with I use eBay so a link would be nice. Thanks again man

You can start feeding veg nutes by the third set of leaves. That's what I have been doing. Start 50%. Then increase if no signs of problems. I guarantee you will not have problems with G.H. organic liquid grow and organic bloom. Don't forget your Armor Si. If you start feeding bloom nutes off rip, you'll loose out on extra veg time. Grow them 24 hrs a day for at least 50 days. Feed veg nutes until she is fully ready. Start bloom at first sight of visible flower. I wait until all my bud sites have calyx and hairs very visibly. Whenever that is. Don't panic if it keeps vegging, that's a good thing. The smaller it flowers the less weight in the end. If you're gonna LST, ask me anything, I'm a self proclaimed master. You can bend them whenever you want, I do it when it's 5" tall. Peace

The whole nute thing sounds confusing, what do you mean when you say 50% do I mix it with water or does it go straight in. And with armor si does that get fed with the grow and bloom? These are all autos that say they have a lifespan of 60 to 80 days, to be honest I don't even know what lst means I see it alot on the forum though. Remember busy your talking to a complete newbie haha, this is a whole new world too me, I smoked it my whole life, but now I'm tired of paying outrageous prices and just want to grow a personal stash.

Lol, sorry dude. I'll slow it down. Nutes will be mixed into water. Fill a 5 gallon bucket as its all your gonna need with 4 autos. Let it sit an hour for each gallon. So 5 hrs, air stone speeds up process . Your letting chlorine dissipate. Than add 3 cap fulls of G.H. armor SI first. Than add your G.H. grow (veg) nutes at 50%. I use caps per gallon(one cap about a teaspoon) 1 teaspoon per gallon at half potency would be 2.5 caps of veg nutes per 5 gallon reservoir. Mix and check Ph level. You want 5.8-6.5 /tapwater is usually high around 10-11. Nutes may auto adjust so they say, only if starting ph is neutral. Anyway adjust your ph to 6.2 is what I like. When you're ready to water you'll have 5 gallons at hand. Also fill a spray bottle with some halfway than dilute by filling up the rest plain water. Use for foliage feedings.( Spraying the BOTTOM of leaves, spraying tops of them does nothing .) And I always feed from outside edge of pot into center. Makes roots chase water out expanding your root system. Outside heavily, center light. LST stands for Low Stress Training. It's just bending and tying the highest points on plant below the other branches to accelerate lower growth and even the plant out so the entire canopy is more or less even. Eliminating small buds below and medium buds in middle and big up top, all are even size. You can put a trellis on top(scrog) style, or tie and stake them when they need support. Here is example of a LST'd chemdawg. Topped on first set of true leaves, and bent down and super cropped some branches and only LST others. Simply punch a whole in fabric edge and tie a piece of twine from the mid way point of your plant, maybe higher, when you gently push it over you can feel where the tension will be in day by day you bend it down a little more and you'll see your branches will all turn off words so your bottom branches that would have stayed strong will now go upward to become large branches you can then send them over so that their bottom day by day you bend it down a little more and you'll see your branches will all turn up words so your bottom branches that would have stayed small will now go upward to become large branches you can then send them over so that their bottom branches become top branches there's never any actual breaking of anything so therefore it's called low stress training when you get into breaking of branches that is called super cropping that is when you squeeze the branch bruising it until you can actually fold it in half without breaking it in half and it will heal itself and turn itself back around and then it will create a large knot at the healing point and we'll make for large colasScreenshot_2016-04-04-00-50-35.png IMAG3258.jpg

Oh man I have a ton to learn haha, you've been of great assistance man there's no way I can thank you enough, I trust what you say too because clearly it shows results. So I'll go by your rule of thumb. I've screenshotted this thread to use it as a quick reference, I think i understand the nute thing pretty well now, and I get the jist of LST and when that time comes I'll hit you with some pics to see if I'm doing it right. I'm using bottled water as of now, but I run off my own deep well, to check ph I'll just by some strips at the hardware store. Thanks again brother your a lifesaver.
