My Tomato feed NPK value = 2 - 2.5 - 4
also says mix two capfuls ( 30ml ) into 7 litres water
but i have an autoflower and i heard they need only a bit of nutes to help flowering
so what should i do? be the first time giving nutrients as a first grow.
.. i water with a 2 litre bottle aswell, can someone give me some advice?
how much should i put in the 2 litre bottle@?

well dudes, said i`d stick down a quick intro here (since i`m in your neck of the woods) and few questions etc, i`m ae86 grower and have just started a grow. Both for some personal and too see if i could do it knowing absolutly nothng about how to grow anything.

Started off seeding 20 plants but have wittled it down now after some research to 15 but with males to worry about this will thin out more i guess. So with limited resources and room etc i`ve managed to squeeze in some plants at home with 2 20w 2700k bulbs on them and there doing fine. After 2 weeks (from seed) there about 4/5 inchs tall, well some are others are little over 2 inchs but all look to be thriveing in there own way. They have been growing in potting compost until yesterday i topped it up with garden soil to help with the streched out stems. thats us up to date so questions:
1. As i`m stuck with height (can go 4ft max) when should i flower there on 24 light 0 dark now
reason i ask is i`ve been told that they jump up once flowering starts
2. nutes: Whats the best to give from round here can`t get the foxfarm?
3. trimming: Can i trim some of the bigger fan leaves not hoc the plant but keep it tidy

so many more questions but i`ll only fry your heads so that`ll do for now, so thats me great to be a member and look forward to learning some of the tricks f the trade.

Water in the mornings , allow soil to dry , water until you get run off.

it's best to read a bit yourself first before asking questions - search the beginner section or maybe even get a book...

1. Your plants will continue to growth in a vegative motion for upto 3 weeks in flowering so get them to about 3 ft then flip em.
2. Canna, bio, fox's, anything from hemp shop king bong etc etc
3. Trimming slows growth but can allow more light its 50/50.

Lololol :D won't catch me chasing skanks like that :p wait, that's me analysing. Is that me??!? I think i'm probably one of those guys that piss women right off, the majority of comments point towards me being rather good looking (bollocks, i'm just me, that ent right) but fuck if i give em any attention :) Women are snakes with tits and i'll have nowt to do with em.

thanks for the replys guys, i have been reading everything that comes my way since they sprouted just under 2 weeks ago, thing is i think i`m too late for a proper set up. I`ll explain what i mean, this is a super economy grow so started with the seeds and a bag of compost and taught that was it.... so apart from haveing too many plants in one pot, well i say pot should say its 5 galon plastic drum cut in half, i have other things i didn`t quiet realise like the height and bushiness of these plants the nutrients and pretty much everything after the fact.


@ Onthe ball if i get them to 3ft and flip the lights to 12/12 how much more growth do you think i`d get considering i`ve 4ft flat to work with..

@ ae86 grower,

the rule of thumb is to expect them to triple in height in flower, most will double though. Look into low stress training to keep the height down.
