Grow Report - Red Dwarf Bordering On Neglect

I grow two or three big girls outdoors every year and get more medicine than I need from those, but this year I thought I'd play around a little and decided to try my hand at autos for the first time. My plan was to basically do no more than what I considered the bare minimum and see what they would give me for my little bit of effort.

Seed: Red Dwarf Auto
Germination: 8 hour soak in water, damp paper towel for about 36 hours until crack
Soil: Master Gardener potting soil @7.99 for 2 CF with added 20% perlite
Container: 3 gallon
Nutes: 2x Maxsea All Purpose at 1/3 strength, 2x Maxsea Bloom at 1/3 strength
Grow Time: 11 weeks - Germinated on March 30
Environment: Outdoors in SF Bay Area - Pot buried in soil for insulation

Cracked two seeds but one damped off. Below is the survivor. Plant finished at 23" soil to tip, and as you can see in the bottom of the pick it used all 3 gallons of soil and sent some roots out looking for more. No smoke report as it is still drying, but hoping for some decent product.

Very nice report man! I have the same one going right now I germinated directly in soil ( bad idea) then transplanted them directly in the ground. Getting about 6 hours of sun a day wish I could get more but I don't have the space right now.
