I am planning to grow indoor autoflower cannabis plant.
I would like to know:

1) What low-budget nutrients to use for indoor?
2) How much water to feed the indoor cannabis plant daily? and how often?
3) How much nutrients to feed the indoor cannabis plant daily? and how often?

It depends on whether you plan on using soil or hydro setup.

If you haven't bought the seeds yet, have you considered non-autoflowering seeds?

Hey Jack (LOL). to answer your question brings up a lot of others. I'll try to answer but recommend you read, read and read some more. 1 You can use just about any over the counter nute. just adjust the amount to what the plant shows you that it needs. Recommend to start off very light on your dosage.(easier to add more than take out). 2. depends on the size of container, plant,, and soil. usually give enough water to get a little run off from your pot. Only water when soil has dried out, test about 1 to 2 inches down into your soil if its moist don't water. another way to tell is weight. IE when you first put soil into pot feel how it weights then give a good watering now feel it. Feel the difference? now you know what it feels like when it needs water. plant will also tell you when it wants water, the leaves will droop. 3 DO NOT feed daily!!!! how often will depend on the plant. some eat more then others some less. follow directions on label as a guide not as gospel. The most important thing to remember is every plant is a little different, so care for it as an individual. And READ, READ, READ!! just my nickels worth hope it helps.

By watering do you mean pour water into the top of the pot until it runs out of the bottom of the pot? I'm so afraid of over watering!!! P.S not trying to high jack your thread

Your wasting your money buying any other brand bar none. All other products on the market can't compete. Canna is way overrated and overpriced and house and garden are also similar in price

Don't listen to this guy. He's just trying to sell you AN products. You can get the same success using any hydroponic formula.

Get these ingredients and mix accordingly with 3 gallons of water:

Potassium nitrate - 2.54g
yara calcium nitrate - 7.65g
mono potassium phosphate - 2.94g
magnesium sulfate - 4.61g
potassium hydroxide - 0.86g

iron sulfate - 0.283g
manganese sulfate - 0.07g
sodium borate - 0.07g
sodium molybdate - 0.001g

That should give you an N:P2O5:K2O ratio of 1:1:1.9
and a K2O:Ca:Mg ratio of 1 : 0.5 : 0.16

You can tweak each ingredient to change those ratios.

I'd like to point out that while my formula (mix #15) takes 9 ingredients, the AN representative in the post before me suggested buying 12 products.

You tell me what's more complicated and which is more straight forward. (and cheaper)

How long is a piece of string??

Go into any grow shop buy SOIL GROW and SOIL BLOOM or FLOWER whatever it says, of whatever brand you like the look of and price, if you're going for value for money always compare the dilution rates on the back, ie one bottle may be £10 a litre instead of £15 but you have to put twice as much in for each watering!

If you want my personal opinion I love Plant Magic Old timer grow and bloom with the additives, if I were in hydro or coco i'd probably go House & Garden, its concentrated stuff so pretty good value for money.

BUT I can't stress enough for your first time and keeping it simple it really won't make much of a difference what you use, I mean you could get a soil mix and just use plain water if you wanted.

Never listen to anyone trying to sell you A.N. shit, bigger bullshit branding marketing buzzwords graphics WANKERS I think I have never seen. I'm not saying they don't work, i'm just saying you don't deserve to be paying stupid money for just any other nute with fancy pictures and 'clever' branding names and flashy advertising jargon. Its just lame.

POST NOTE: I'm not saying to anyone here at all that all nutes are exactly the same, of course they aren't but at a basic level all bottles of GROW and BLOOM work, and will work fine if used properly.

I use advanced becuase it works not becuase of fancy bottles or gimmicks. Period.......
& the product speaks for itself
There's a large amount of so called medicine that isn't even medicinal quality. Check iron labs. Whether you want to believe their test results or not it can be a reality check for some who have never smoke medicinal quality meds. Tons of mold spores and mite eggs being smoked not to mention the pestiside levels.
That's medicinal? No wonder our state wants canada to grow our meds.

advanced nutrients is just salts, acids, and bases with some useless additives like carbs and amino acids.

Same shit, different bottle.

Sometimes companies will add stuff like cobalt and nickle into the mix, but those are just gimmicks too. They all want their simple products to look ultra complex to scare noobies off from making their own.
