Hi, so I'm a new grower and I've done quite a lot of reading on my strain(revolver) and as well as just overall auto research and found a lot of it broad,for my strain anyways so I'm going to give yas a grow journal of my first autos .....
So let's start with pots I have three autos two in 5g buckets and one in a little smart pot(in hopes of finishing faster). I'm using promix with perlight and for lights ATM I have two under 42w 6500k bulbs and one under 85w 5k bulb...ok I think I got that covered now for NUTES. Ok this is the part were I didn't like what I was reading, ok so let me just start by saying most of the info I had read on autos said no nutes for about three weeks or until there is at least four nodes (two different articles) which made no sense because there is all this stuff out there for starting plants so I said the heck with that and went and got some supperthrive. Now I know super thrive is used for germinating mostly I believe but there is nitrogen in it so I said whatever and fed that to my plants on day 8 at recomended dose at that and then hit it with 1/4 strength bytes on only day 12,my nutes are technas recipe for success. It is now day 17 and I'm about to up the dose of feeding here are some current pictures .I'm posting this hoping it will help some of the more advanced growers believe it or not because I'm sure there is more we can do earlier to these plants for better growth. Now these plants like I said are only 17 days old growing in a closest with little no no air flow and non regulated temps and here they are. This forum is open so please let me know some things yall done to your autos early on.
