Noob's guide to gettin down with Auto's

[tekdc911]

i start mine under a 400w hps but its raised up high enough that by the time they grow into it they can handle it
FFOF is kinda hot
not every strain will have this problem but just as a rule of thumb you cut the soil down that you're planting your seed into

Here is my 400w veg room.

just cut it with some perlite or maybe just get light warrior? im broke now. lol I think ill have to just go straight FFOF

 

[tekdc911]

dude the dollar store or walmart has seed starter for a couple bucks that works fine just put a party cup sized amount where you're gonna plant your seeds
not all strains are nute sensitive
if you plant 10 seeds same strain
more than likely are going to be 2-3 of them that will only need about half the amount of nutes then some of the others

 

[tekdc911]

some soil from a previous grow that you didnt have issues with works for starter too

Light Warrior + Ocean Floor is a popular soil mix for a lot of people.

hey man. diatemaceous earth should kill them and its safe. get food grade version and sprinkle it on topsoil. works on contact, bugs step on it and get all the water sucked out of em and die. I watched ur vid, dont care if people say they harmless id want that shit gone

 

[tekdc911]
