First Grow

[furious248]

Yea is that a decent mix for soil? Any suggestions on how to improve it?

In all honesty im not 100% sure, they are both highly recognised brands so i would imagine they would work well together, but there is alot of argument Around that ffof is not that good nd they prey on stoners love of pictures and use that to draw them in ...... but for me i use biobizz all mix from seed to harvest, it is very airy but holds a good amount of water and despite what many claim it does not burn seedlings and only need a nute feed after 3 weeks onwards.

I chose FFOF because I saw a lot of people said they could carry an auto for the first month with no nutes. I mixed in the light warrior for some airy mix and also for some dilution to FFOF nutes after hearing OF may run hot for autos.

lots of people say OF is too hot but it worked fine for me. even in seedling stage

paint your bucket black, then white for better roots, cooler root zone, and added reflection. humidity looks low, or light too close, curled up leaf edges. what is your canopy temp and rh?

So then what's causing the leaves to turn up like that?

So then what's causing the leaves to turn up like that?

heat and low humidity. its not bad, and will correct itself once the plant is larger.

 

[BlueRidgeGrower]

Oh ok. What temp and humidity is ideal?

74-77 would be super great (79 is fine though. Just want to avoid over 85) and anywhere from 50-70% RH for veg. Less than 50% for flower. 40% is optimal for flower.

 

[BlueRidgeGrower]

So Im decent on Temps. It's my humidity that needs to go up. Would setting a bowl of a water in there help much?

Will do the trick !

Youll be fine with that light. When she starts to flower add in 2 2700k cfls like the 65 true watt ones. Sylvania makes a great 150 watt equivalent that is 65 actual. I use 2 of those cfls plus a mars 300. I have grown 3.5 oz dry off one plant with that setup

you're doing good.. the trick with autos is to get them as big as possible before they show sex.. thats how you get decent auto yields.. alot of that comes from good genetics.. theres 3 companies i use for autos... auto seeds , mephisto genetics , and nirvana's auto line

strains i can vouch for

auto seeds - transiberian , mig-29 , purple cheese

nirvana - auto jock horror/ auto bubbleicious

mephisto - anything


I have consistently gotten the best yield/flavor/high from the comapny Auto Seeds .. They're by far my favorite company.
