Hey, Guys! I just started my second grow. I'm growing 2 Kannabia BCN Diesel Automaticas and 2 Short Stuff Onyx that will be in my Flower Area under 400 Watt HPS 20/4 lighting. Now, my seeds have just sprouted, but I also have 3 Sweet Seeds Wild Roses that will be going into my veg area for the duration of my Auto Grow. I plan to do this every time, my goal being a Harvest every 8-10 weeks. My last grow (also my first) I used CFLs all the way through. Now, I'm vegging with CFLs and using my 400 Watt HPS and the 125 Watt 2700K CFL I have for Flowering. So, how far above the seedlings should I keep the HPS? Is 12 inches okay? Too much, too little? Any advice would be great! +rep for some help here!

I keep mine about 16inches when they are really young....about a foot away when they are a bit older.

K21701, thanks! We hung her tonight, with a couple of technical difficulties, haha. Mainly, the ceiling beams are not where I wanted the hung, but a few inches shouldn't matter too much. 3 of my seeds are sprouted. Figure I'll move the autos there in 2 weeks, maybe 3.

ok i grew out some purple ryder seeds last summer. I liked how they stayed about 12inches tall. They would be really easy to hide outside in the summer. This summer I would really like to put out some more autos just for shits & giggles, but I want something different. I would like to keep the same short easy to hide height but I want something a little stronger! I was looking at the Diesel Ryders... Anyone on here have experience with this strain or another strain that should stay between 12 and 16 inches that is a fairly strong smoke? any info would be helpful. also... other than the attitude, what other sites carry a good selection of autos? + rep for info​

Yeh that temp is pretty good, ive noticed on my autoflower grows that temp fluctuations are handled pretty well with these plants ive had my grow tent once at 30 degrees and they were fine, so its a good chance its a nitrogen def, look for some ferts that have a high N in the npk that shud do it good.

thanks for the info... i am pretty sure i want to get either the diesel ryder or the ak47 X new your city diesel, but i am also considering getting another pack of seeds and was very interested in the blue himalayan diesel and the russiam rocket fuel. I really do want to keep my plants under 18 inches and under 15 inches would be ideal. i don't really want to have to LST them to keep them short. The only reason I am even looking into the autos is because i thought i could plant them in a good soil mix and not really have do do anything to them but water them. plus if they stay short then they are super easy to hide outside where i am going to be growing. not too many people looking for marijuana plants in the middile or end of summer down around their ankles... if you know what i mean.

Is there really a major difference in between the 6th week and 8 weeks grow for a basic auto indica or any basic indica for that matter? Will I see a major change in the last 2 weeks for a basic indica like afghan? I dont have a magnifying glass to look at tricrome development. Any input is appreciated.
