Transplanting Autoflowers

[diabIo]

Hey RIU community,

I am currently germinating ten autoflower seeds, LSD and Blackberry from Beaver Seeds, w/ the paper towel method.

I've mixed 3 cu. ft of FFOF and 2 cu. ft of FFHF - will this still be too hot for seedlings?

After reading about Happy Frog's material list, I quickly realized that the mycorrhizae would greatly aid my plant's root development. Is it possible to cut the bottom of a Solo Cup and fill it with Happy Frog and plant it into the surrounding mixture of soil? The idea is that the root system would thrive with the given fungi in the Happy Frog and eventually make their way to the more nutritious Ocean Forest blend after developing a more solid root system.

The image shows my idea:

Blue - Ocean Forest
Green - Happy Frog
Red- Solo Cup
Black - 3.5g Air Pot

Just start the seeds in the solo cup and transplant to the air pot when they are ready. I think you are over thinking things.

I started my autos in 5 gallons of FFOF. Don’t ph your water, plain tap, and you will be fine. No need to transplant.

Transplanting helps develop a proper rootball. Aids in proper root development in the larger pot too.

Sure

OP don’t take unnecessary steps. Keep it simple. Plant in final container

Totally would, except the widely known notion that transplanting autoflowers will lead to a stunted plant.

Keep it simple, gotcha. Thanks

It's widely known, but bro science. I transplant all my autoflowers. They are huge.

No. They are huge. You misspelled it.

I'm also in the auto transplant club. Never had an issue personally
