Autoflowers indoor - It really is that simple

John - I've been growing for a long time. The lime green plants are not nute deficient. They just popped up during my breeding program and the buds end up really frosty.

The problem I have is the few people telling me what I'm doing wrong. I'm not asking for help and generally it's nubes thinking they know everything. Lol

You are 100% wrong again. Temps are cold and no nutes yet. Now what? Again you look like an idiot. Do you read anything or do you just throw shit and see if it sticks? Lmfao. Good guess though.
Hey no need to lash out i am just trying to help, your plant's don't look happy and stressed out.

OK just thought you're looking for help lol how long have they been in dirt for if I might ask

Ya fellas. I'm not asking for help or advice. I know how to do this very well. This thread is a very simple guide to grow autos on a budget. What I'm showing is some leaf curl or minor spotting really doesn't affect much. Heat and cold in small bursts doesn't affect much either. That's all.

Please comment all you want in any of my threads. It's all good. I wish there was a simple thread on autos when I started.

Here are those BKRs in the one gallons from a page or two back. I'm in FFOF(dirt) and still no nutes. Just plain water so far. I'll start nutes within the week. The ph must be close to perfect. I've never checked it. It's not as critical when you grow in dirt.

FFOF is a bit hot and the first couple sets of leaves show it. Then they just explode. These will end up 36"-40" from the floor to the top bud and provide roughly 2 ozs each.

I see some minor leaf issues. They will work themselves out.

Dude....holy shit. you seriously throw autos under 24 hour 600 watt HPS and thats it???? like... really, really!? I was going to invest in COB and maybe quantum lighting but after seeing this thread I'm hard pressed not to adopt your method of relatively relaxed, low maintenance growing.I see some temperature fluctuation isnt a big deal for you, how about RH? i read a previous post of yours that you have your own genetics, but do you ever purchase seeds and if so where from? have you ever grown without nutes and if so was there a drastic difference with the yield? im vegging under CFLs right meow, but am picking up a tent and light here in the next couple weeks. just growing some bag seed at the moment to experiment and learn, but am planning to purchase some autos as well. whats the length of your avg. cycle (in terms of weeks from germ to harvest, im sure theres some variance strain to strain).

Cheers!

What the fuck are you talking about. I'm hitting a lb+ with 8 baby plants in 10 gallons of dirt. I'm thinking $25-50 on my power bill is worth it. It's all personal for me so I don't give a rip.

There's always a fucktard in the group that just doesn't get it. Oh well.

All I'm saying is there is a WHOLE LOT OF BULLSHIT out there.

My inefficient way is working just fine for me and has been for a long long time.
Phhh.... i do 1.5 pound with 4 plants and half the electricity.

There are easier and cheaper ways. Listen or not...

i use an odd method... 19 on 5 off. fuck even. but after reading this i'm gonna go 21 on 3 off... everybody needs a 3 hour nap daily i got 2 autos in a 4x4 tent and i'm gonna try scroggin some photos when these get done. i aint no pro i only got one customer other than me and thats my best friend i tried to give him weed but he was like hell i'll pay you to keep up the hobby... i've grown Think Different and Auto AK... currently growin a Grizzly Purple auto and a 60 day Lemon auto... (it ain't gonna be done in 60 days) LED lights, fox farm soil, bloom nutes after 30 days add little more each week and then i stop at week 8... i'm at week 8 now and this all i got... hoping they get a little more fat i'm thinkin i'll get 2-3 ozs off each plant... that will work for me

You are right. There are easier and cheaper ways to grow for sure. I'm definitely with you there. I grow in 1 gallon bags while I'm breeding. So the lb is just a by product of my breeding project. It's all good. Currently not breeding for quantity. I'm just trying to show that you can throw autos under a big light and a fan and do just fine. You really don't need CO2, Dry ice, Dinosaur nut, molasses, worm shit, moth balls, owl throw up, Teletubbies ass sweat, cat hairball puke, and so on......you get the point.

BTW - what size pots are you using and whatcha growing? Nice yields!! 6 ozs for an auto is baddass. Have any pics? :bigjoint:

Simple by-product of breeding.

Ive been growing and breeding for over a decade as well. I sort of disagree with a few things but to each his own and ill explain. If you use a small pot I found out you have to water a little more frequently during summer months, winter time i don't see much of a problem. A bigger pot also lets the roots stretch out into a bigger reservoir of available nutrients and water, it also prevents the plant from becoming root bound. Second part i disagree with is several plants in one small area, however this is due to the strains i grow. I grow super autos such as think different and auto ultimate. These plants are huge, the last grow i did with one think different was humongous, it out grew a 3*3 area, ended up with 247g of dry bud. Last part i like to mention is nutes, you can save hundreds if not thousands of dollars making your own. If you make your own you will know you have everything the mj plant needs no more additives such as iron or magnesium. I don't even have to adjust the ph during growth or flower, its all calculated in the mix. I spent $80 on homemade nutes that will last several lifetimes. The ingredients i bought for the home aid stuff is top notch, nothing cheap went into mine. For example over time i found out there are several types of iron chelate just as there are several types of chemicals plants use for nitrogen. I researched, even talked with a few people from texas a&m and bought the stuff that plants easily absorb without problems such as the build up of salts.
