Hello everyone,
Im a new member and this is my first post. I am a college educated chemist and have some information I would like to share. I've learned a few things on my own that I think are worthy of sharing. This is my first grow ever so let me give you a rundown of my setup :
Seeds: auto white widow max from msnl seeebank
Tent: 4'×2'×5'
Light: phlizon 600w dual spectrum
Medium: FF ocean forest in 3 gallon smart pots
Nutrients: fox farm trio, calmag, and bud candy.
First of all let me say that msnl seedbank has been awesome so far. The cost is a little more than others but the quality is top notch. Ordered 15 seeds and started by germinating 5. All 5 germed and some took off like a rocket 5/5 female. At 3 weeks one seedling was putting off a great scent, one indicator of great genetics.
-I started nutes at 20 days old, full strength
-I use a pH of 6.40 for watering and feeding.
-Istarted on a 18/6 light schedule and on day 16 switched to 24/0.
-I feed with every watering!**
-i never use water by itself
-my plants are so healthy its ridiculous
-no topping or training of any kind.
- temp sits at a constant 73 and a relative humidity of 58%.
-feed every other day
-pump carbon dioxide into grow tent regularly from my beer kegging CO2 tank.
Okay, first thing I'd like to say is that full note strength at an early age worked great. Also, feeding with every watering has worked great No nutrient burn, discolored leaves, or adverse effects. they handled full strength nutes very well.
Everything I read said to feed every other watering. This is not the case for all. With fast growing plants in 3 gallon smart pots, my plants are able to absorb all the nutrients they need an pull moisture from the soil at a higher rate, keeping the soil damp but preventing root rot.
The main point I would like to share is that full strentg nutes are okay for autoflowers and that it is okay to feed 3-4 times a week.
The first pic I have uploaded is all plants at 22 days old, before I started the carbon dioxide injections.
The second pic is all 5 pants at 28 days old, after 6 days of CO2 Injections. As you can see there is a HUGE difference once I started with the CO2 regiment.
I am open to advice as well as giving advice But most of all I want to share my knowledge and what I have learned with others that are likely wondering about the same things.
