Autoflower Thread & Resource Guide

okay, im new to growing and have a few questions. I plan on growing an autoflowering plant outside. I have read that a 4'x4' hole is recomendend for outdoors. this means 4feet by 4feed right? Since i would be doing an autoflower would the hole really need to be this big?

why do you need a 4x4 hole. just plant your seed, and let it go. about every foot apart will do fine. hell my indoors they arent but abot 6-8 inchest apart.

i was planning on starting them inside and let them get about 4-6 inches before moving them outside. the soil in my area is very rocky so i was thinking about digging a hole and fill it with potting soil

well i have autos indoors in long gated pots they are only 6 inches deep. and i finnish them in that. so im thinking 1 foot wide and two foot deep, fill in with good soil and you should be good.
 
Hi guys, another newbie here. Fantastic site, use to grow in the 70's, thing have changed. Almost finish reading, wish I saw this thread a year ago. Came across a bit of info that might help someones decision making, it was about seedbank updates and ratings (+-) deliveries or getting beat. Saw it on dr greenthumb web site, go to links, its called greenman's seedbank updates. Take a look, might help. After I catch up reading I'll look at all your pics. later guys
 
Wow, 253 pages on an iPhone. My eyes hurt. Thanks for all the good insight. Will be doing an outside grow of 3 Russian Rocket Fuels and 3 Afghan Kush Ryders. One of each will go into 2 gallon pots with FFOF and the other 4 will be in the ground supplimented with FFOF. The outside native soil is really nice rock free stuff. I can get a 1/2 inch stick and push it down a foot without resistance. I'll probably have some questions once they get going but until then thanks and peace.

i got some afgan kush riders out side. and other autos in side. But its not a good compairison, because the afgans are monster autos. and others are small autos.

I'm pretty sure cutman said he is on 12/12 outdoors right now and he has some of the sickest auto AKs I've seen. Ask him...
