Hi guys,
I'm posting this to ask for some expert opinions on whether I'm doing the right thing - there's a massive amount of info out there and a lot contradicts each other so I'm a bit confused.
I've purchased Auto BubbleGum from 00 seeds and also got Photoperiod Northern Lights. I've planted 1 seed of each in pellets and few days after germination I plan to transplant them into 8L fabric pots - these will consist a mixture medium I've made myself: bottom half is a mix of mostly compost (westlake gro-sure vegetable growing compost), some fish, blood & bone, perlite, some standard soil and the top half is a mix of coco coir and perlite. I plan to keep them on a South facing window sill until maybe 2-4 weeks old, then slowly take them outside (hopefully weather permitting). With the Auto BubbleGum I'm planning to keep it in the same pot to avoid transplant shock but with the Northern Lights I plan to transplant it after a few weeks outside to a bigger fabric pot.
I'm only growing 1 of each as I am going for holiday for a week at the start of June and in case something happens I won't lose my entire grow. I want to plant 2 or 3 of the Auto BubbleGum mid-June and potentially grow them straight outdoors in larger pots (16L).
Will I need to feed and how? Currently I have fish, blood & bone and want to purchase worm castings this week. Ideally I want to feed organically.
From what I read the Autoflower shouldn't really need much nutriets however I want to maximise my yields as I'm growing outside.
I only want to grow recreationally and for personal use but I want to give the best treatment and get the best yields I can, realistically what can I expect with this plan and what can I improve?
Thanks very much!
