So I potted up the super cali haze, in a previous post I said i would be using 30l pots that was a mistake. I'm using 10l pots the whole opperation went well I watered them and then transplanted. Today I have a small issue with the leaves curling down slightly. I havent given any nutes yet is this just a case of transplant shock. Sorry I cant do pics yet the camera is under repair.

hey guys im starting a new grow atm im just awaiting a few bits and bobs comming but its my first auto grow and would like to know if anyone can tell me what soil to use for flower or would the potting soil be ok to do the full grow?? any help would be greatly appreciated as i have no experience with autos.
Thanks for the AF's thread! New to this forums stuff writing anyways. I love all the knowledge I get from reading. I've grown the short riders from Nirvana. Those were great first AF grow and all my friends loved the smoke! Then I ordered some bubblelicous AF's but they didn't Auto! Went to more like 5 months some of was my faught, not all though. Nirvana made it right by giving me extra bonus points! Better than a 'kick in the ass'! I've got a bunch of AFs seeds from Nirvana, I hope the rest are the real deal AFs! I'm sold on the AFs and so are my friends!! Thanks again for all the information/knowledge/Thread!! I've been growing with CFLs and can't complain about yeilds. But like the low cost and low heat!! Later, BMiller

Awesome thread
I just got done reading all 584 pages at the other autoflowering thread,took a week...lol
Anyways,Im already likeing this one alot...
So I have untill tomarrow to figure out what strain of autos to order,
I will be growing in a PC growbox,so I need a very short strain..way under 2 feet!
Anything around 10-14" would be idealy perfect for me,
What strains can u guys recomend,that would suit my needs???
So far from what Iv read,easy riders/green-o-matic/lowryders 1,2..theres plenty of others
Are flash seeds any good? Im looking at a new strain they have called santa,stays short I think...
Anyways any recomendations would be awesome

I recommend Shortstuff from first hand use and flash is the same breeder Stitch so I would order them myself next time if I wasn't already decided on the Auto Assassin.

I'm growing 4 auto-flowering plants, 2 are sweet dwarf and the other 2 are low girl (I think). I planted them 5 weeks and 2 days ago, they get 18/6 light and are all just over 30cm (12 inches) tall, is this normal or should they be bigger?
The guy at the growshop told me to switch to 12/12 lighting when they start to flower (they appear to be starting to flower now) but most of what I've read online contradicts this, what light cycle should I keep them on?
It's my first time growing under lights so I would appreciate any help, thanks guys.

They look great.....use 18/6 or 20/4....12/12 will decrease yield.I'm growing 4 auto-flowering plants, 2 are sweet dwarf and the other 2 are low girl (I think).

Maybe two feet. Most autos won't get very big but they finish fast. I have a couple that have yielded around two ounces. Do not listen to the guy at the grow shop. Either he didn't understand that you were growing autos or he doesn't know much about growing them.

Hi all,
I'm new to the whole growing scene and i have a couple of questions. I plan on growing some auto flowering buds. What lighting system should i buy? and would i be able to use this type of light bulb: Philips 400 Watt Clear High Pressure Sodium HID Light Bulb?
Also here's the link:http://www.homedepot.com/Electrical-Light-Bulbs-HID/h_d1/N-5yc1vZbw0z/R-100023589/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053
notice i will not be growing a lot of plants, just for personal use.
