Waiting on my Dinafem WW Auto and WoS Kush Ryder Auto seeds from Attitude. Got 3 of each and 1 AK47 Auto freebie. My first grow will be all autos in a Secret Jardin DR 90 ii 3ft x 3 ft. How big and bushy do these strains get?

Will I be able to comfortably grow/fit all 7 seeds in 3 gal pots in that grow tent? as well as a small clone tray for when I throw in my sensi NL ? I mean dimensionally the pots fit, but I was afraid the plants might get too busy and light won't get through. I'm doing all T5s btw.

you might be able to manage 3 of the WW in a 3x3 if you scrog it that might be pushing it honestly
im growing in a 3x5 and can fit 5 if there staggered ages but if they where all towards the end would never be able to fit

What sizee pots are you using? Those look alot larger than the 3 gal smart pots i'm gonna start it.

Anyone else know if they won't grow as big if I use the 3 gals vs what he is using (maybe 5 gal?)

You should be alright to go with 3 gal pots. only a "60 day" life cycle roughly. With the lights and the pots 4-5ft by however wide really should be alright, prob safer to go with 5ft. Have a few going myself will be interested to see how yours go!

Good Luck!

60 days never seen it happen more like 10-12 weeks and a few of the white widow pheno's veg till you force them with 18/6 ww auto's need atleast 90 days to be honest the breeders are way off and that pot is a 1.5-2 gal one of the ones you hang up on your patio ive noticed wider pots is better not necessarily deeper there tap roots grow side ways atleast the ones ive pulled have almost always gone to the side im also running 1/3 perlite 1/3 coco and some hot indoor soil from home depot recipe for success on the nutes the widows are cal/mag and P whores im scared to feed them at almost a full dose but once its built up they really like it and just so you know if they just preflower then dont pop any new pistils i top them and let them veg out on 24/0 then 18/6 em

and you get more of a plant from less pot with smart pots a 3 gal grows a plant like a 5 gal air pruning works wonders i just drill 1/2 " holes 3 " @ 2.5" @ 2" etc. etc till i get to the bottom all the way around and put a piece of window screen to keep the dirt in

That's a neat idea, I will try that for my 2nd grow. I have acquired 7 3 gal smart pots at the local hydro, enough roots organic soil, and roots organic nutrients. I'm going to try to keep it as simple as possible for my first grow, then slowly incorporate some of the tips and tricks in my subsequent grows.

If I keep it simple, 20/4, the soil, 1/4 of the recommended nutes, will I get an Oz per plant?

I'm going to germinate the seeds on Monday

wouldnt see why not if your nutes are timed right dont over feed and dont trim any of the large fan leaves i dont see why you couldnt pull a oz of some high grade off of a WW its fairly easy to get 1 this strain take a little longer not aslong as some super cali but gettin close but just means it has more time to stretch
