So in about 3 to 4 weeks I'll start nutes or at about 3 to four nodes

Usually I go with nutes at about 2 weeks. If you are concerned and think you need to. Just mix it up at like 25%. Probably wont hurt anything. But after you got 2 sets of real leaves. I go all in as I described earlier. You have to remember. Perlite is just a passive medium. It provides zero nutrients. Hempy is like a passive hydro. You gotta feed nutes period. But, generally good genes have what they need to get to 2 weeks. In my experience anyway.

I want quality for personal use. I'm no farmer

Yeah I use rapid start bottle says 1-0.5-1 I think that's good no

Once I have a couple nodes I'll start at 25%

Isk alot of good info here. Wondering if those are all autos of photos think that means fem. I'm learning Dan

I just ask cuz those babies look perky let me tell you nice fat buds my friend

3 gallon buckets are good, you should get two large plants....sometimes they get a bit user unfriendly when too big

I have used both auto's and regular....doesn't matter much from a hempy perspective.......this pic was an auto

People think I'm smart. I'm really just lazy. If their is an easier, simpler way, I will figure it out because I am lazy! And I get fantastic results. Maybe not the best. That's ok. I've done soil, drip/dwc and been doing Hempy for several years. I started Licas Formula just recently. I'm so lazy, I'll skip a day of watering cause I don't feel like taking five minutes to mix nutes. Lol. I do autos because they are Hardy and just trouble free. You will be alright. Jut don't overthink it, which I know is hard to do for a noob. I were one once. After a while, it doesn't even excite me much. I hang out here just when I'm bored and stuff. If I were you, I would just go through dudes journals. Do it the exact same way. I don't do journals cause I'm lazy. lol

fem and "auto" are 2 different subjects
fem = feminized (99.99% chance it will be female)
Auto = no need to reduce the light to 12/12, as they will flower with any amount of light...you may go 20/4 or 24 hours/day of light

I agree about autos. I do them because you don't have to worry about light leaks and such. I don't even use a timer. I flip em on in the eve after work. Flip it off in the morn when I leave. They get about 14 hours. I've done it almost every way. 12/12, 18/6. I think it may slightly reduce yield going with less light. But, still. I usually get at least a couple of Os.

I love auto's for my sunshine grows, as I have limited summer months...but had a few disappointments using auto's for my HPS grow, so I will likely go with regulars for this winter's grow......I refer to auto's as plug & play....hard to go wrong, so a great way to start growing

I thought I was buying autos but when they came they say fem on it

Guess I just didn't know the difference. Was to nervous about the ordering part so. Still have abumch. Black domina next

You guys got it down hope it goes as easy for me gonna try 3 small 1 all alone two in a 3 gallon

You know I was thinking just as they get about 8 in or so I'll just pullem over tie down wait about a week or two an flip to flower should be good. I think we will see

Isk how long on that plant in the last pic . guys I don't know how to + rep but let me know

Update boys. I'm following your pics almost exactly. Gonna do two in a 3 gallon and two separate in 2L bottle. I think there like half gallon milk carton. Really wondering about this 2 plants in one bucket thing Dank sorry been calling you Dan.
