looking for an indica fem auto flower seed.

plant pot - 8L / 10L
put holes at bottom of pot

Teprature kept to 25 - 27 degrees

soils and nutes
mainly nitrogen for vegative and phosphorus for flowering
organic nutes are better
spray under leafs with weak solution on vegative only
vulcaponic help the water and nute flow and prevent it turning muddy.

fan blowing over flowers when flowering
or instead use a scrog instead

light
blue when vegative
red when flowering but use blue aswell for 2 weeks when flowering
use light timer
solid white surface for reflection
complete darkness at dark hours..

ph
6 - 7

germinating
inbetween paper towels for 24 hours with a little warm heat underneath

vegative growth
blue light
6 - 8 weeks grow in vegative state or until fully developed pre flower leafs
happy plant - deep green leafs pointing up
drooping leafs mean add more water
unhappy plant - leafs face down and less color
nutes burn - use less water
light cycle - 18/6

flowering
pitch black at dark times
6 weeks minimum while flowering
never spray leafs during flowering
slowly introduce the light cycle change to 12/12
keep using blue light for first 2 weeks when flowering aswell as the red light

i have yet researched the harvesting, drying and storing.
but if i have the main bit down then its all good.

also i need a way of eliminating oddurs.
carbon filter may be to expensive

Teprature kept to 25 - 27 degrees - Low 70S F - about 80 is ideal.

soils and nutes
mainly nitrogen for vegative and phosphorus for flowering - Don't ignore phosphorus in veg though, just increase it and decrease N in flower.
organic nutes are better - I prefer organic.
spray under leafs with weak solution on vegative only - You can, isn't mandatory.
vulcaponic help the water and nute flow and prevent it turning muddy.

fan blowing over flowers when flowering - Always good to use fan(s) for air flow, not too strong though.
or instead use a scrog instead

light
blue when vegative - Generally yes, but you can use one lamp for both.
red when flowering but use blue aswell for 2 weeks when flowering
use light timer - Of course, keep schedule rigid.
solid white surface for reflection
complete darkness at dark hours.. - As much as possible.

ph
6 - 7 - Pretty much.

germinating
inbetween paper towels for 24 hours with a little warm heat underneath - There's more ways, whatever feels comfy for ya.

vegative growth
blue light
6 - 8 weeks grow in vegative state or until fully developed pre flower leafs - You can flower before maturity, I like to wait til mature though.
happy plant - deep green leafs pointing up - Not too far up though.
drooping leafs mean add more water - Usually yes.
unhappy plant - leafs face down and less color - You got it.
nutes burn - use less water
light cycle - 18/6 - That's the most common.

flowering
pitch black at dark times
6 weeks minimum while flowering - I'd say 7, but whatever you prefer for product.
never spray leafs during flowering - If something is really needed it's okay, but stay away from non food safe products at this time.
slowly introduce the light cycle change to 12/12 - Suddenly is just fine
keep using blue light for first 2 weeks when flowering aswell as the red light

I answered most of it, some seemed like sorta repeat questions.

Plants will use N, P, and K in both phases, what is changing is the ratios.

different, not better, there are very few absolutes in this endeavor.

This is called foliar feeding, and is considered a more advanced topic/technique. I would start out with nutes in the soil and once you have a good baseline experiment with new things.

The one has nothing to do with the other. Increased air flow increases evaporation from leaves and therefor speeds dehydration. Excess moisture causes mold. It's a trade-off, usually some balance of the two.

Veg as large as you want. There is no set time. If height is an issue find out from the breeder how much it will stretch in flower and plan accordingly. On the other end, it won't flower till it is mature, regardless of light cycle.
Leaves pointing up can be a sign of issues, or a strain thing, curling down is more a sign of an issue, straight or slightly upturned is usually ok unless you have another indication of an issue.

or that you added too much... on this you have to look at what's happened recently to determine the cause

Ummm, if you nute burn you flush, not less water. Less nutes. You can remove nutes from the soil by dumping large volumes of water through the pot into a drain/toilet/whatever.

Though I'm not aware of a sub 6 week strain, it is far too dependent on genetics. Get an idea from the breeder, and learn to look for signs of ripeness, like trichs, hairs, etc.

Though this can be a great way to dial in a plant that will flower with less than 12 hours of dark, almost everyone just switches to 12/12. Out of hundreds of grow descriptions I have read about on this site, only one has gradually acclimated to 12/12...

Temporary fixes lke ONA (is that what it's called?). Carbon filters, ionizing/deionizing filters, ozonizers. Some people will also send the odor out chimneys, or into attics to dissipate out.
