Auto Pounder Grow Journal

my 3 auto pounders are a week and a day old, finally growing a second set of leaves, and i turned up the ballast to 75 percent now i will be posting pics in a few more days
 
Im not sure what to say... Your using a 1000w for germ and early veg? Waste of electricity man not to mention a large majority of seedlings cannot handle that kind of light. Buy cfls for the first couple weeks at least. And did you really dump the other germinated seeds? That doesn't make sense at all
 
Who said i am using a 1000w not me, in te pic they have been under the mh light only 4 days, were under low wattage light to germinate.
 
them look pretty small for 18 days,my pounder sexed on day 19 and was 3 times that size,might b fried at 75% of 1000w,....definately stunted somehow


those are nice plants, whats size is your grow area? theres alot of plants there, mines almost a few days short of 2 weeks old now, and i see the inner nodes/branches already growing out, seems these autos are stable cuz mine almost all look the same!
 
scove I was not talking about your setup, i was talking about the OPs grow in his thread, his setup IS a 1000w according to his post, thats what i was reffering to
 
There in soil under the 1k light at 75%, the seeds started to show signs of opening and some of the tail out after 2 days of germing so we will now hope for the best! ill keep an update, hoping they all break the soil =)

prob only need like 25% for the first couple weeks with a 1k light

hey bro, and everyone else.... first 2 days i had them under cfls, after they all fully got out of the soil and spread there starter leaves, then i put under the 1k dimmable system at 50% for 5 days, then i switched to 75 % for the 5 days until today, i just switched them to 1000 watter 100%, the leaves are fattening, they soak up my light and wen i move them and turn em every 12 hours, theyre loving it, i never heard of tomuch light as long as its controllable even concidering hieght and whole 9 but im gettin off track... since theyre autos and usually veg for 3ish weeks im going to give them the light and all the love they need and can handle but as of now everything is growing great, on the 20th ill be giving 25% of the grow big in the soil... stay tuned if youd like to see photos in a couple days just to show you theyre loving the conditions since im trying to boost it up and up and up before veg is over, this is my first run with autos and i want to do more then a couple of experimenting with things but this is how its going so far check back in the other thread now, about auto pounders and think different!
 
here guys need some help, i will post picks later but, i am starting to bud already, white hairs on over half, how man y weeks with these plants does everyone think i can bud for i am hopeing 9 weeks, what you think? Bering almost 4 weeks old do i switch to the budding chemicales know, this is fast , I have connisuer and big bud to use. Really need some help thanks.
 
Yeah as long as its not burning them and too hot then it's good I heard a 1000 watt is only like half. As strong as the outside sun on a nice clear day so definenentlymmot too much if there soaking it up loving it and since they started under that they will g et used to it quick. Good job with the 1000 and can't wait to see whats Going to happen with it all.
