A lot of people, myself included, start with autos to limit the number of variables. I'm going to be doing autos for about 6-9mos, until I get comfortable growing, and then switch to photos. They're just easier for us newbies... @sa355355 Seedsman.com (site sponsor) takes a bit to get the...

Tried this thread in the Newbie section, and didn't get a response....so I think it may be better served here... I've read a few times in other threads that I shouldn't be defoliating autos, but I can't find a definitive thread on the subject. I THOUGHT I had pretty good success defoliating...

I've read a few times in other threads today that I shouldn't be defoliating autos, but I can't find a definitive thread on the subject. I THOUGHT I had pretty good success defoliating the autos I've grown, but was I stunting growth? Whenever I've done it in the past, the plant seems to rebound...

There are rubber plugs that you need to remove, and then there's a little potentiometer inside that you can turn down with a screwdriver. All the way to the right is 100%, and all the way to the left is 50%. I'd put is in the middle. If you're talking seedlings, then you can have it really high...

I think the TSW2000 is a great light. I've got 3 of them in my 4X8. You're going to want to dial the light back a little bit. I had one in my 3X3 and it was burning the plant a bit when I had it at 100%. Start at the lower setting until you hit flower, and then you can turn it back up to full power.

Here's one I did this morning. Just to give you an idea of the defoliating that I do from time to time. (Looks like spinach!)

From my (limited) experience in defoliating, it's hard to over-do it. I just take off fan leaves that are blocking other growth. You start nipping them off, and before you know it...you have a sickly looking plant and a pile of leaves. Then, 5-6 days later, it looks like you did nothing and the...

What a difference 4 days makes. It's especially noticeable when you go out of town for a few. Bruce Banners are exploding. I defoliated the big one on Sunday, and it looks so much bigger today. Like I didn't do anything at all, and then some. The diesel girls have started a competition on...

Yeah...my thread. lol I wasn't proposing running 12/12 for autos. That was just a question, and it seemed odd, so that's why I asked. I'd need to get another light for the 3X3 if I was going to veg on there. I moved the light I had in there to the new tent, and bought the two others. That's...

definitely on the list. I need to get through a few more grows to get in the groove and then there are a few upgrades like this that I’ll be doing.

Please elaborate. You mean run 12/12 out of the gate? I need the second tent for drying and curing.

I have to leave for a few days this week, so I ordered an auto-watering system off of Amazon this weekend. I tested it out, and I think it'll work fine. Small trickle of water comes out of each end, so I put two in the dirt for the plants in flower, as they need more water. Then just one for...

I've forgotten to shake nutes several times. I always seem to remember after I've watered, as I'm leaving the tent for the day. Just remember next time and all will be right with the world. Looking good!

Ammo. I stocked up about 3mos ago when we moved into a new house, and I'm glad I did. Costs have gone up 3X in the last 3 weeks.

Lots and lots of bud sites. You're going to be really happy when that plant finishes. Looks healthy to me.

I bought an auto-waterer for $25 on Amazon. It goes for 60sec every 8h, in addition to my morning watering routine. It's just a trickle coming out of it, but stops the plants from getting too dry. Before the auto water, the pots were really light in the morning when I'd check on them. Now...

THC: All up to the strain. Well...most of it anyway. Most of the reputable seed banks have a search option for "High THC" Room: That's friggin huge. You could easily grow that many plants in there. Autos: Good choice for beginners. That's what I grow, in a perpetual tent. I start 2 new plants...

In all honesty, it's made things a little better. Buy from your normal dealer at 1/2 price, and if you get caught with it, you have your card so there's no ticket and you get to keep your weed. The dealers are doing really well after the legislation passed. At least the guy we buy from has said...

I water a ring around mine with a normal bottle of water when they're that small. About 6" round, and do that for about a week until the stem gets healthier and can take the water normally. ...just how I do it.

Not really a fancy update, but I got my workbench in there today. I have an overhead shelf and lighting going in later this week. I've got to get a kitchen stool of some kind too for when I'm trimming.
