i agree fully,THANKS ALL...the auto-flowering cannabis is a huge thing to me, in afew years i want to have my own auto-strains.(probly hashplant &/or some of the local shit i love to burn)...auto jack herer would be soo good, i could call it fast herer..lol
anyone growing only auto's id recoment reading about/learning about reg. strains to help you understand the plant better aswell as anyone who grows cannabis should lookup general gardening and all that, i have and knowledge is the most vauble thing to anyone,till you hit your head too hard....lol
take care alll, PEACE

PEACE goodgrowing to all....hopefully ill get some females to show soon:)
 
Anybody got a percentage on the amount of bud that comes from the bottom half of the plant? this could maybe help me decide how close you can get them together

Hey guys, I don't have much grow space, I'm using a microwave cabinet so I only have about 8-10 inches of space, 10 inches would basically be right on my bulbs, is this enough space to grow autos? If i'm using 4 42W cfl 6500k how many plants would I be able to grow? 3 maybe? and by using rectangular food containers as pots. Would this be a good set up for me? I don't really want to get into LST.

I would really make sure you find a short strain, probably nothing that has ak genetics since those babies seem to get pretty tall. and the cup size will help you control the size of your plant. if you roots have nowhere to go it really slows down growth, make sure to poke some holes at the bottom of that cup, as for the size of your cab, if its a microwave you could maybe put it sideways and you would still only have enough room to grow 1, if your microwave is like anyother its should be wider then tall, so turing it sideways will make it taller, giving your plant more headroom. Give a pic of your cab if you can, other and I will try to help. I hope this helped a little

Got easyryder right now, havn't got to them yet thought, any tips on that particular strain would be grateful

tbh m8 they pretty much grw themselves, i fed first time with 1/4 strength vitalink grw after 3 rd set of leaves then by the time the pots needed watering again it was bloom time, i added 1/4 stength grw with 1ml/l of bloom, after that fed every other watering with bloom formula at half strength, didnt even use a bloom booster. flushed when trichs started turning cloudy, and they finished at 10 weeks.
i used a 2l pot and they grw to about 2ft tall and yielded 33 g dry. this was under 400w hps with 250w cfl drop down
3 easys and 3 cheese

Hi all

I have some auto plants going... Just curious if it is beneficial to keep the lighting @ 24/0 during flowering? anyone done this? I hear its best as the plant has grown to its peak... Let me know, any tips welcome...

Yo! smart thinking bro! You just added 1 1/2 for head room. Thanks man. As for pics my box isn't completed yet but I got the set up pretty straight forward on what I need to grow. But are you saying that I should use party cups? I want to be able to yield at least close to a zone on each plant.
 
I i'm using 2 gals, plenty of room for roots to get big. But it sounds like 1 of those would jack all your space. 1'st thing, deeper the better. the tap root wants to go nice and deep, I would suggest starting in a party cup or maybe something a little smaller then move to the party cup. Sorry to say but if your little guy decides he wants to be tall, there will be nothing you can do and it will grow into your light. maybe start in your microwave (haha sounds funny) and while its growing in there, start modifing something else to be a better cab, then swap once it gets too big, you should have a good month to do it. or if you havn't started them yet just find something besides your microwave that stealthy. I think if you find a real short and stocky strain though your mic will do just fine, there are some that only get around 12" I got faith in ya man. Good luck
