[h=1]AutoFlowering Growing Tips[/h]AutoFlowering Cannabis Growing Tips
Check these tips for your indoor growing of your AUTOFLOWERINGMarijuana seeds, our trials have shown that these plants develop best if you:
Use no larger than five-litre weed pots.
Use a photoperiod of 12-14-16 hours of light for faster results (OUR BEST RESULTS WERE OBTAINED WITH 12/12 and 14/10 PHOTOPERIODS). If you leave it at 18 hours, you will have to stop feeding with growth fertiliser after two weeks and force the plant of Marijuana to flower, leaving it in darkness for 2448 hours and then resuming the photoperiod. In any case, WE DO NOT RECOMMEND USING OUR AUTO-FLOWERING VARIETIES (Dr. Green Seeds) WITH PHOTOPERIODS OF OVER 16 HOURS, AS THE PLANTS WILL TAKE A LONG TIME TO END THE PROCESS, TENDING TO GROW TO A HUGE SIZE AND RISKING GROWING BEYOND THE GROWERS CONTROL.
Use high-pressure sodium lamps.
Good results can also be obtained by switching from a longer photoperiod to a shorter one (for example, reducing from 20 hours to 1214 hours to stimulate flowering and accelerate the process).
