Easy autos or other strains to grow

Really I run separate rooms because I HATE changing timers. I'm so damn dumb I have to read the directions every single f'n time!! Yeah and then it's find the f'n directions. So changing times on my electronics timers is like a week long job.I keep hunting for mechanical times.

Thats not being dumb. Thats being a pothead.

Me on most days. Put something down. Remind myself where I put it. Give it 5 minutes. I won't even remember I reminded myself much less where it is.

Normal shit hun. Lol

That's what I'm bitching about.

I bought a digital timer thinking it would be the cat's meow, but I hate the damn thing as it's very user unfriendly

Also if you should unplug it you have to reset it.....it should have battery backup to retain the setting

I would suggest Home Depot for a decent mechanical timer....be sure to buy the 15 AMP unit

I prefer the outdoor model, as it provides protection from any spillage...below is an example (Canadian prices, cheaper in the USA)

Hey there welcome to RIU. I want to offer 1 thought.

Autos are not easy. Mess up and you lose time. You cant regain that time back. They are Finicky and easy to piss off right into stunted growth.

I suggest photo plants as you will beable to have time for them to recover from novice mistakes.

Yeah I think I am starting to learn that from you all lol. Any suggestions on easy photos then?

I had solid success with OG kush outdoors.

What do your outdoor temps look like? How much sunlight per day are you getting and how much direct sunlight will they receive?

I have 15 acres so I could out plants wherever. Full sun, half sun, shade, whatever is best or needed. I live in IL for reference on weather. Everything grows pretty well here

Right. But what are you day light hours? Here in Cali we are at 13.2 hours a day of sunlight. Sept 22nd is the winter solstice. That is when it becomes only 12/12. You are going to struggle as the light hours get shorter and the weather gets colder imo.

Right this second we are around 12 hours 37 minutes of day light
