Hydroponics Nutrients and Auto flowering Cannabis

[PsychoSmoke]

This will be my first post.
I have been seeing a lot of disinformation about hydro nutes and Auto flowering growing.
To be clear this is not a reference on soil mixing, I am talking about Ebb and Flow and DWC.
This is not for soil, it just isnt.
Okay. I have been growing autos for a while and I only do a few things different than with growing a photoperiod plant. All I have done is start week 1 with 1/2 strength nutrients. That's it. Big reveal right! Other than that I just kept my nutes the same as I would growing a photoperiod plant. Had great results minimal issues. My light schedule is 24 on the entire time, that's what these autos like, that has a lot to do with nutrient uptake, that's why they burn when not under 24 hr light. Remember these auto strains come from places where a near 24hr summer is normal. You have to give it correct conditions for it to grow correctly. Simulate it's normal environment and I must add inoculate with with beneficial bacteria every grow. Make sure the plants get as much beneficial help as possible. There my 2 cents!

I'm not sure the community is new to half strenght nutes for autos being a huge secret but guess it's good for the brand new auto growers.

That's who it's for, they seem to be grasping at straws but it's also about light schedule to keep the plants from burning. I hope it helps someone out there!

Where is 24h summer ? .....

Ruderalis is from Siberia and mostly Asia .... hardened for the extreme environment more than the areas sun . They are stringy , low thc producing ... ditchweed mostly. Found around hemp grows , it’s a wild little shit that has few good traits and more crappy ones.

Not Alaska or Finland

Refer to terms midnight sun and white nights, this occurs in areas around Siberia ironically! I said near 24hr summers not complete 24hr summers, in the siberian summer the sun never fully sets and still gives almost 60 percent of its high noon light even at midnight. So yeah the rudy strain grows in those conditions almost 24hr a day. Yes the rudy strain has some problems, but with proper care and breeding they have for the most part been over come! Thanks for the post!
