I got my purple Kush auto from canuk seeds today. Just popped the seed into a cup of water.

My soil for this grow will be promix hp and I will mix in perlite and worm castings

actually an auto has only a few differences to consider

with auto's you start in the final pot (they don't like to be transplanted)....it looks like you have done this.....they will be slow at first but will soon shift into high gear.

If growing indoors, keep your lights on for at least 18/6 per day....I prefer 20/4...other folks prefer 22/2 or 24/0
.....do not switch to 12/12, as they will flower when ready....typically in 4 weeks

SInce you are growing outdoors, no worries about light schedule...when they are young, you can bring them indoors at night and put under a few CFL's to help them kick into gear (not required but will help)

you cannot clone auto's (you actually can but they will do very poorly), other than that, they can be treated the same as a photo

personally...with auto's, I do not prune/defoliate, LST, top, FIM, SOG and so on......but not saying you can't, I just keep auto's simple

cheers...good luck :)

She sprouted! Can’t wait to see this one grow.
The weather has been 25-28 and the plants are loving it
