you just used bloom nutes the whole time?

The Fox farms organic ocean forest soil feeds for a few weeks and that was during what I would call the veg period with autoflowers. After that I used bloom nutes for the remainder. I actually did a mix a week ago but will remain on bloom here on out.

I used the MH the first 2 weeks, then the HPS for 4 weeks and then plan to use the MH again for the remainder, today was the first day with it on. (I meant to do it on sat but forgot so monday is fine..lol)

thanks man, im struggling a little bit with nute burn or some sort of issue. Been lowering the amount of nutes each time and trying to figure it out flushing every once ina while but no luck. They are doing ok, smell great but I can tell that they are going slower in the budding department due to the burning. Its ok though my next grow will be better, Im going to have tent and better airflow. Also im considering larger pots so that I can grow with the organic soil the whole way. Maybe only use the nutes once every few weeks.

Nice grow, how tall are they? And do they still fit in a 3 x3?

They are anywhere from 7 inches to 14 inches tall. Yes they still fit in the 3x3. I moved them into the closet now though but they still fit nice.

If each one would have grown identical and that being the largest one I have.. they would prolly be tight in the 3x3 but would still fit i believe.

I cant wait till I get my tent because its become very aggravating keeping extra hairs off my sticky ladies. extra hair meaning like dust and cat hair... so once I get that going on ima be set.:joint::joint::joint::joint:

So I went the past two days on MH and today has been HPS and plan to do 2 days on MH and then 2 days on HPS so I can get the best of both worlds. What do you all think about that?

Does anyone know if this would be useful for the plants or would it harm them at all? I mean it shouldn't but i figured Id asked anyway.

i wouldnt do this myself. i have mh and hps running both at the same time. this is ok because they get used to it. flipping one to the other is stressful...may cause some plants to go hermie.

this is just what i would think....maybe make a thread and get a couple people to verify.

to be safe in the mean time just keep the hps for flower and mh for veg.

come check out my thread....i got some new pictures up

Great idea with MH and HPS combined. Gutsy, but hey, this is how new shit is invented, no risk, no reward.

You may have just stumbled on something. I like the idea myself. Good luck and keep us posted :)

i wouldnt do that but thats just me. what i have heard is if you switch to your mh the last ten days of flower it will make your plant more potent. your plants look good tho. cant wait to start my 400 watter

Great thread bro!! I'm sold on these Autos now, gonna order 25 of them AK47's, for my next grow for sure!! The time and money saved on vegging makes it a no brainer! I'm currently growing 15 plants under 1600w's, 400 of which are MH the rest being HPS. My plants are 5 weeks old in coco and seem to love it. But had I gone with auto strains I'd be almost done, instead I've gotta wait another 8 weeks atleast...:wall:
