    Default First Grow : 6 x Autos

    Hi

    So my second grow ... first proper :-)

    I have spent a lot of time reading numerous forums, cherry picking, what I feel are the best techniques!

    6 auto seeds, sprouted from the 4th July onwards.

    They sit in a 60 x 120 x 180 tent (sat outside). There is a 6" and 4" carbon filtered (muffled) outs and a 4" input. There is a computer controlled humidifier and dehumidifier and oil heater.

    Temps range from 23 - 29 and RH is set to 40 - but currently 45.

    Alas, I lost track of what is what was what !!!! (germination issues using plugs :-( ). Below is my best guess.

    I know I have bought :-

    1 x Grand Heft Auto (planted 5 days after)
    1 x Choc Orange (planted 10 days later)
    2 x Kush of some sort
    1 x Critical Auto
    1 x Auto Anaesthesia (possibly!)

    All have been topped and LST'd. They sit in 70% coco and 30% perlite. They are drip fed once per hour with coca A+B in RO water. The water reservoir is aerated with a couple of air stones. Ph in is 6.1.

    Since bloom they get Fox Farm Big Bloom and Hammerhead at full strength.

    I have a claimed 2000W LED from Amazon and a 2700k 250W cfl. I am thinking of upgrading to a Migro 200 next grow.

    The middle one has turned into a monster and takes up 1/2 the tent.

    The lady front right has yet to flower - I think stress from being so shaded.

    The rest all started flowering around the 4th August.

    All very exciting!!

    Any thoughts / views are very welcome from this new!

    Lol yeah ... I ended up throwing beans at the problem ;-) ... using the paper towel method I went from 0% with the plugs to 100%

    Doh !!! I have zero patience.

    Now I have serious room issues!

    Double wrapped with Tarp with a 10mm plexiglass acrylic. I have two cats who love the heat! They jump on top from 2m away !! - so I added proper protection.

    I screwed up at the beginning and found huge amounts of water ingress. Now I survived the crazy torrential of recent!

    Excellent. Well that all sounds perfectly safe.
