the temp u want under 80 f unless u are running Co2 enrichment ....with a cool breeze moving across the canopy

the watts are used to figure out your footprint .........u can grow 4 big plants under a 1000w or one big plant under a 400w (u want lumens and the par rating info)

Feed is all on the soil and what feed lines u are using and the size of the plant ..........currently i do feeding every time every 2 days or so the day i do not feed i add a quart of regural water to the big flowering plants the ones veggie i just hit with a follar feeding (messing around with that ) and mix feed up for the rooting and rapid grow
(like all of us u will pick a full feed line with a plan and fallow it tweaking it as u go when u read the plant better.........every grow is different unless u use super soil ) at that point feeding is just power pushing for more yield

what else would u like to know
 
I run roots organics nutrient line on my regular plants can I run the same line on my auto flowers? And from your experience what size pot is the best for a auto flower and why also what's your biggest yield and what's your favorite strains thank you for letting me pick your brain

there is no set in stone feeding schedule ........ there is no perfect temp ... or humidity ...... light intensity is what ever you can afford ...... all plants have different need's what works with one may not work with another .......... you need to know how to read a plant ....... yield boils down to experience or massive amounts of research .......... I wouldnt know where to start trying to help or even steer you in the right direction ...... you havent even mentioned what strain you'll be growing

np later on pass on the info to others call it even

i never personally run roots line (just starting with their soil pro mix but i am mixing in their elements line ) new strain is a caluim hog ....odds are yes u can use them i have heard good things about some of them
can u link me to what feeds u use

i use a mix of organics and chemical feeds to push my plants
GH Go box........organics for the micros and fungi
Fox Farms Dirty Dozen kit ......chemical for the power

i grow autos for the different tastes and effects .......so size of pot is off the site projected yields.......i use fabric soil bags
120 grams and under plants a 3 gallon soil bags..........holds about 1/2 gallon of water
121 grams and up plants i go with a 7 gallon (thinking of trying a 10 gallon) 7 gallons soil bag will hold about a gallon of water if it is dry
the amount of water u can offer is directly linked to the amount it can yield u so large ones needs alot of water

my biggest is the one i linked u 26 oz 22 grams ............my avg in soil is 6 oz per plant (that is all of them i max out the littles at 4 oz ) the big ones i am 11 oz 10 oz avg
strains that get repeated offen in my cycles

..also i run veg nutes until i see flowers forming, then i switch to flower nutes. Aside from that, im in hydro so for soil i cant say much.

Its actually my last run of autoflowers. Power bill is too damn much at 18/6, i can save a little on 12/12 cycle and grow from clone.

power bill on 18/6 and 12/12 are honestly the same ...... but the photo usage is stretched out over a longer period
 
the power and use is the same
30 days on a 20/4 timing the plant gets 50 days of 12/12 light
u would have to run them that long on photo 60 to 70 days on a 12/12

bluecheese is good .......it is stinky
