I have been lurking here for a while and now I am finally starting my first grow. I ordered some autoflowering seeds from attitude . + speed I believe is the name of the strain. Germinated all 5 seeds in a paper towel and all 5 popped. I have all 5 in solo cups and they all came up above soil on 2-23 and seem to be growing VERY FAST. I have 2 180w UFOS and some cfls. This is my first grow so I am not expecting too much. I will be ordering nutes soon so any advice on nutes will be much appreciated. I am only using one ufo and 2 26w cfls until they grow a little more. I am just hoping to eventually get to a point where I am not relying on anyone else to get my smoke. Im not trying to make money just for my own personal use and maybe a few close friends depending on yield. Any guess what I will be looking at for yield?

cool little setup! You will have to get your girls out of those clear cups and in some non opaque ones ASAP. Roots turn green and stop growing in the presents of light. As for Nutes, I would use the Canna Terra line. Also be sure to get a ph meter. Yield, well I have had some autos yield over and ounce, and some 8g's. You will prob yield between 40-50g DBW. Thats if everything goes well and all the girls make it. Just put duct tape around the cups, transplanting right now is tricky. I would keep your lights on 24/0. Plants need no rest. Look for rose pots online, they work the best for autos. Keep us posted! Good luck!
 
Yea the cups are just for the first week or 2. I am watering with a turkey baster right now and they seem to be doing good. They are definitely growing very fast. I will be transplanting into 5 gal buckets once the roots are developed in the cups. I also have 2 'water farm' hydro kits so I might end up with 3 in soil and 2 hydro. Will my 2 180w ufos plus some cfls be enough light for 5 plants? I am running my lights 24/7.
 
Here is the card that the seeds came with. Has anyone here ever grown this strain? Does it have a decent thc content to make a good stone/high?
