i beg to differ with you tek on dis - didnt list skill level
i read pretty clear level is beginner

silver- a lighting system would be your actual light and setup
uou my frind was speakin on your light schedule
and to look for yield a 1 gal is way to small



2 1/2 gal po t @ least

hate transplant - will handle one gentle one

hate full strenth nutes first two weeks water only (maybe a root supl sum thrive)

start beginning of wk 3 with 1/4 strenth food - inch up to 1/2 strenth and max off there
i give veg food till buds are set in then switch to flower fd
i stop food wk 7 switch to molasses then till end in place of food
finish is by trichs not cause pkg said 8 wks

autos luve sum light hate 12/12 luv 20/4 like 18/6

show sek like 20 - 24 days

mature wk 8 - 10 on adv

Ok I did put all the seeds in two big pots then transplanted them to the 1 gallon pots
is this a good idea to transplant them again? I don't want to ruin them, I have reasearched about leaf tucking and lolipopping ECT,
So I would have a go at this
so what do you guys recommend I keep them in the one gallon pots this time or switch them over into bigger pots
Thanks for the quick reply guys much appreciated

my advice is never take off any leaf, just slowly "LST" them, possibly with a topping done. You can also clone the top for a bit more yield, it's worth it!

Hey Tek, in your opinion, how big of a pot is, not really too big, but big enough to where it's not beneficial to go any bigger? I've heard that bigger than 3 won't make a difference and I've heard the same about 5gal. Just talking about autos here.

really depends on space
bigger pot bigger plant depends on what your growing but for the most part they get big if you let the roots stretch

Appreciate that. I have a couple of bagseeds still going in one cabinet, it was my first attempt, I completely effed em up, but they are fems and still going, so I figured I'll let em finish. But, when I harvest my 2 autos, I'm going to start 2 more and put 1 in each cabinet so I have room to let me grow. I think I'm going with 5 gallon pots, I've got nearly 3 foot ladies, that are pretty bushy in the 2 gallon pots they are in now. I figure a 5 gal bucket should give them plenty of room to grow

i highly doubt anyone is pulling 30 ounces of 600 watts of light. you will pull 1/4 maybe from each plant.

well hell
you dont need a 1 gal for those numbers a party cup will work fine
your best bet with that many plants and that light would be to
loli pop the branches off and just allow the main cola to grow
then if your pots were all touching you could cram more in your foot print
30 one gal's in like a 5x5
would probably give you a inch or 2 between pots

just my opinion
