So far I have germinated the seed and also planted it in the soil but I would like to know how many watts I should run starting the seed? I have a thousand watt HPS and MH air-cooled Hood and my ballast is dimmable down to 600 watts

For the typical "lazy autoflower" grower like me, real dirt has worked very very well. I grow with a mix of half super soil half roots organic and some perlite added in for flavor. Takes all the nutrient guesswork out of the equation. Simply top dress with dry organic fertilizer twice during flower.

How am I doing? I just topped her a couple days ago and I'm seeing a lot of growth on the inside smaller leaves. Should I cut the bottom 3 tip leafs off the bottom or leave them? Ive been following Tang's autoflower feed schedule and seems to be doing good so far. I think I'm on day 20
I would never top an auto. I tried once. I also took the fan leaves off. God what a pathetic plant that grew. I wanna say it did 14 grams but it may have been 7 vs her sister who did around 100g

This year is going much better. No weak ass purple strains. All plants grown with LST. Main kola was tied along a bamboo stick at a 45 degree angle every time I watered them. All of them are beautiful bushes and most of them have several bud sites that are taller than the main kola.

Why the one that is front left is just now flowering is unknown to me. All the other plants have been in flower for 3-5 weeks. Have a feeling shes going to be a MONSTER and the stacking is looking as tight as it gets.

Also, a journal started on RIU but finished at AFN for experienced opinions and few days before chop. My 1st auto grow in summer of 18'. Topped and notice the strings everywhere holding those fat buds up XD
