First tip...use a the pot you plan on flowering her in from the start. Autos do not like to be transplanted.
I would suggest not giving them anything with time released nitrogen because they go into flower soo quickly.
Just keeping them outside the whole time as far a yield? They are not really bread for this... it will decrease yields. Maybe...1/2 ounce or a little above??? Really depends on the company you bought them from and how good the genetics are. Many variables there. If you can bring them in under artificial lighting during the night hours you will get a much better yield.
Also a 3-5 gallon pot will help you produce more.
Good luck!

Unfortunately autos rarely yeild anywhere near what the company says you will. The people who do have them in hydro setups to maximize the growth they can fit into the extremely short growing time. I don't know if it's just me and I have never actually seen the buds in person but whenever people show autos I feel like they would be a lot better the same strain just not auto... I might try them one day for hydro SCROG setup indoors one day, but without absolutely ideal conditions I wouldn't even try them.. a half ounce per plant is brutally low I couldn't imagine the risk taken all year for that amount of bud... and if you live somewhere medical where there isn't risk and you're allowed x number of plants, why not just have the number you're allowed but have them be massive plants. Or a greenhouse with supplemental lighting or a huge outdoor patch of photo period strains.. I've head of people having one plant filling up a 200sq ft carport. I saw a pic of it yesterday.

I don't really see point in autos they yeild such miniscule ammounts it's like how is that even worth the time.. not worth the risk in illegal states, and not worth the time in the legal ones IMO

No man u can't get much off autos... the reason is they flower immediately. If you have normal weed plants they will vegetate for awhile first, just adding mass and more spots for buds to grow off of. Then when it flowers it has more area on it to fit it's buds, and can train them however u want.. when u have an auto it doesn't do that it has to start flowering when it sprouts pretty much, so it doesn't have alot of room for buds.

If you want to optimize your yields get a photoperiod strain in a LARGE pot with some good soil in it. 15 litres isnt that big. 10 gal is decent, some people plant in 400gallon pots tho lol. Go buy some bloom booster that you mix with water and just water your plants with that once they get a few nodes high because they don't even have the veg time to need lots of nitrogen.. you can get a tub for 8$ and it will probs last me the next 2 seasons.

I just have this 20-20-20 blue powder... irs for veg but you would want the bloom one with like 8-36-12 or something like that, I don't remember exactly what it was. it has different brand names though so just look for water soluble nutrients

Hi you can get that auto up big!! i do it all the time.. You need a Nute Schedule thats 1/2 of what you feed a photo plant.. You need cal+mag Don't try this without it!!! Autos are like a diabetic photo pot plant.. they really suck it up!! because they grow so fast!!! use some silica in the 2nd week to really get the side branching growing and about the sun.. autos love the sun!!! they need as much as can give them.. weight is decided on how much light, how much food. and most important those genetics 00 seeds does great work!!

This is fastbuds gorilla Glue Auto!! this is an average auto for me!!! or 70 to 120 grams is what i get .. dry cured and ready!! This auto is just 56 days old.. Ill run her out 75 days...

i change the n.p.k through different growth stages. i try use organic nutes outside.ive bio bizz nutrient for grow which is 4-3-6 npk and have been using powderd bat guano for autumn flowering i really like the taste when using guanokalong.thats got a npk 1-10-1 once youve sprinkled a dose on your soil it lasts for a few weeks and makes the bud taste very dank and earthy
