Auto’s in RDWC Setup???

[punit]

Hi Group,

I want to try some Auto’s in a RDWC setup and was wondering what sort of average yield are they producing? Any pics would be great to see also.
TIA

Too many variables to estimate yield. Its like the weather, it gets easier to predict the closer the harvest day gets. At this point, I would estimate anywhere from zero to..........

About a pound. <<<<<< current popular answer to all questions of yield.

My experience with autos is the more you grow at once the better the yeild. If you are doing RDWC you can expect much better bigger growth but grow as many as your tent, room will allow. I grow autos in peat based mediums and coco\perlite. The coco,/ perlite always yeilds twice as much as the latter so RDWC if done right should in theory provide you with a good to excellent yeild. These 4 pinneapple express yeilded 19 oz in a 3×3 in a peat based medium. I expect a pound per 3x3 but with autos anything can hapen to diminish that. My next run will be all coco/perlite 14 autos spread evenly over a 4x4 and 2 3x3s i dont like to make predictions on yeild just hope for the best and try to grow then as stress free as possible. Good luck!

Here is a side by side grow of two strawberry cheese cake autos the left is in 70/30 coco/perlite the right peat based and as you can see the left is by far the winner. while autos are unpredictable the choice of medium has a big impact if everything goes well

Oohhh and also it’s not good to top auto’s because of their short veg/flower time correct?

Best avoided if you aren’t familiar with growing plants.

I top most of my autos, some leggy ones almost require topping to keep them in check
