@ruby fruit

what soil do u have it in

how much direct light a day does it get ..............if u have the cash order the dirt dozen by fox farms
http://www.amazon.com/FoxFarm-Dirty-Dozen-Starter-Kit/dp/B00KC8HWTM

this shit is pretty good for learning with .........it is mostly chemical based with a few bios in there to help feed the micro and fungi
use some of the root drench .......micro brew ......and a tiny bit of grow big .......plus some big bloom (this is just worm poop so can use this stuff every watering)

cheers for the reply...im in aust so cant get hold of fox farm etc...but I did research and try to find something similar...at the moment im guessing it gets 10 hrs sun a day but the hours are getting longer here as well so im think by the time its about 70 days its gonna get 12/13 hrs sunlight a day...it seems ok for 25 days old and the soil seems good..i guess im really asking if its ok to feed ferts neut based now for a couple weeks...obviously 1/4 building up to full serve

little jealous on your light ...........that is damn good u getting 150k with direct sunlight 100k with indirect/cloudy days.......lumen

as for feeding Yes u can feed it now ...........rem feed is already to use food for them they are not breaking it out of the soil so by starting the feeding now the roots will get bigger and intake more to make denser buds

dirty dozen from fox farms

Go Box from General Hydroponics

ok with feeding i am little different then the other ppl i try to get nutrient burn ...........i increase the amount of feed i give the plants until i see the tips of all the leaves getting little fried (that is nutrient burn) then i back the feed down just below that lvl and keep feeding the plant like that until it is cut time

hey ruby welcome to the auto section :D
totally up to you on nutes like justugh said and ive heard from a few other users they like to push plants to the edge (burn) then scale back feeding, personally id say autos dont need feeding until a month old and the cotys have fallen off, take yours for instance she still looks a bit small so id say wait a week especially with only 12/12 the plant wont even be able to utilize all the extra nutes and you may kill her, just my 0.02 cents do what works thats what i say :)

your getting better

keep running the strain and try variables like feed str and watering time and amount

i am telling u man it only gets better with running them the time period is so short compared to photos the learning curve is about 12 months and u should know everything u need to running 4 plants at a time for experiments

but once u change the strain and breeders u are starting over again i got one that hated the heat but the other one in at that time did not stress nearly as much (90f days)

hydro tho is a whole other monster ............before u start that take the time to collect all the gear /learn up before u attempt ........it can get out of control and over whelming if u did not plan for it
