Easyryder - Joint Dr Grow HPS

Hopefully these new auto genetics are starting to improve on quality, iv seen some impressive journals out there!
My limited experience with autoflowers has been disappointing, low yields are to be expected with such a short growing cycle but potency generally seems below average.
From reading around for advice, i decided to go with Easyryder (low ryder 2 X AK47)
Scored a couple of freebies from attitude seeds, should be interesting :)
will be using biobizz all mix, also grow/bloom/topmax

Here are some pics around 10 days old:

Unfortunately i will have to switch to 12/12 soon, got regular girls to worry about. Hope this doesn't effect yield or quality too much!

You can move them to a place where they will get sunlight for the other 8 hours if you want because the extra light will definitely help them produce more. Growing an auto on 12/12 is really gonna hold back their potential.The only reason for 12/12 is to cause a chemical change in the photoperiod plants. The autos dont need that so they sue up all the extra light hours they can get. Its what helps them be worthwhile instead of 12/12 from seed.


AKR is supposed to be great tho.

Also, you should transplant them asap since you arent supposed to at all really, and esp not later in the grow when they will get stunted more. Topping/transplanting is fine for the next week probably.

Def take EverythingsHazy advice and transplant now to get the growth stunt out of the way earlier and next time you start an auto strain start your seed in the pot you plan on finishing in as autos yield will be effected by any type of transplant due to the short life cycle. Good luck!

I grew a sweet black angel outdoors a couple years ago and it got well over 8 feet tall. Im 6'3" and couldn't reach the top with my long ass arms. Lol. She should treat you nice.

Loving my AKR. Im at day 22 has lots of branches/bud sites, doing a basic LST with FFOF soil and a 150w HPS 16/8 light schedule. Looking forward to see how yours does.
 
Things are moving along nicely, still ironing out a few environmental problems but this is a whole new setup, so cant expect everything to go smoothly!
Thanks so much EverythingsHazy/LockedOutOfHeaven, i had no idea sweet black angel was photoperiod. Obviously i smoke way to much weed haha!!
Also didn't know about keeping auto's in 1 pot for the whole lifecycle so took your advise and got them into the biggest pots i had.
Any more advise will be appreciated :)
