Yes tried many of the main streem AUTO seed banks. Like Sweet's RED lines for personal. Only time I run AUTOs is spring time for summer stash.
AUTOs I run at 18/6 under VERO29 COB type B so about 400w worth on a 3x5 table, light at 5ish" above canopy.
Organic soil and water only in #2 nursery pots start to finish. Some times we do a compost tea.. when I feel like it and also do regular IPM once a week unless bugs show up.
IPM has:
coconut water (pure) 1/4 cup,
Monterrey spray @ 1TBS,
1 cap full of Ful-Power
1 tsp of Pro-teckt
1/4 cup of Horsetail fern tea (gets rid of mold - (must start early in VEG)
Can add in some other goodies like Kelp Meal rehydrated and screened a few tbs
1 gal RO water.
That's enough for 30 plants in flower and VEG.
Shake and spray 1x a week. No mold - no pm - no bugs.
Soil is dialed in and tested. My Exotic plants are 6' tall and frosty as shit.

Labyrinth - short pheno @ 40ish days - these will be harvested @ 50ish days. They are in super fade - big fans are falling off... once that's done ... chop time.
