autoflower grow

[buzzkillz]

this grow i am doing 6 autos, 2 gelato, 2 blackberry, 2 gg#4, all from fast buds. im growing them in coco in 5 gallon pots. im watering and feeding everyday to 10-20% runoff...light is a 575 watt led right now its about 4 foot above plants. and im using advanced nutrients. they sprouted sept 23 and are now on day 13. gave them a feed yesterday of 2 ml sensi grow coco and 2 ml b52 then deluded down to desired ppm . and hit them with a little recharge. i have been giving them orca every watering and mammoth p for the last week. switched the light to 18-6 and temps hang around mid 70's and dip to high 60's to lows 70's when lights off. also i have some co2 bags, i dont care for them as they are pretty inconsistent.

the holes in the coco are from soil pen, the pots are from 5.7 to 6.2 ph

update 10-6 sunday. temps today are around 75 and humidity around 50%. fed the gg#4 2ml sensi grow coco and 2 ml b52 and deluded down to 80 ppm ph to 5.8 and added 2 ml orca and half teaspoon recharge. the other 4 i gave them 3 ml sensi grow coco and 2 ml b52 and deluded to 120 ppm phd to 5.8 added 2 ml orca and .6 ml mammoth p. my runoff seems a bit high at 6.4. ive heard both sides about runoff but i think they look ok,all but that little gg#4

Im interested in fast buds. Ive seen their stuff on YouTube. Following.
Is that light supposed to be 48 inches away?

 

[buzzkillz]

on full power 5 feet away for seedlings. 3 foot for veg and 2 foot for flower . i just flipped the veg switch, now its just reds and blues.

You are way over watering. There is no reason to water daily. You need to read up on the wet/dry cycle and start practicing it. Another bit of advice for next time you don't start seedlings in 5 gal pots. Start them in solo cups or something similar. Then step them up as they grow. Best of luck.

Autos typically live in one container their whole lives. Its generally understood that transplanting them is not advised.

update day 20. temps 73-77 day and dips to 68 lights off. light is still on veg at 4 foot away on a 18-6 schedule. feeding 2mls per gallon sensi grow coco A+B ph to 5.6 then added orca. i fed the gg#4 70ppm and the others 120ppm. tested coco with soil pen and all are from 5.7 -6.0 ph, between all 6 pots there was about 3-4 gallons of runoff that tested 6.4ph and 80 ppm.

i was wondering if i should start will bud ignitor now that they around about to start flowering . what do you guys think

 

[Lesso]

I wouldnt start that yet. They may veg for a couple more weeks

day 23 update

 

[buzzkillz]

day 26, the ladies are on the move groing like crazy, i turned on my heater and set it on a timer so the room gets to around 76-79 with lights on and 68-69 lights off. i had to turn on my humidifier and set my dehumidifier to 65% and it bounces from 45 to 65%. ive been feeding 4 of them 70 ppm of sensi grow coco a+b and b-52 added recharge,orca,and mammoth p phd to 5.8 watering every other day.

You might want to up the nutes some...70 ppm is like nothing. Most tap water has a higher ppm than that.

Yeah they are totally old enough for adult beverages now! ; )

update day 31. temps from 75-79 humidity 45-60%, light on 18/6, feeding 4mls sensi grow a+b per gallon and 2ml b-52, giving 1ml orca and .6 mammoth.


i was under feeding them, they are much happier now, i had to correct my coco ph the little gg#4 was at 5.5 rest were 5.7-5.9 so corrected all to 6-6.1, i think i had a potassium lockout how this fixes it.
the nodes are staggered now should i still run the sensi grow till they stop stretching and quit the b-52 and start bud ingnitor?

 

[stinkyattic]

Love the family portrait, they are soaking up some rays : )
Your overall conditions sound great and good catch on the ph/K lockout. They seem to appreciate the attention!

 

[buzzkillz]

when should I start bud ignitor?

 

[buzzkillz]

update day 41, lights 18-6, temps 73-75 on and 64 off, humidity around 40-45%. i mix 4 gallons of 15 ml sensi bloom a+b, 8ml big bud coco, 8ml bud ignitor, 8ml bud factor x, 8ml carbo load, 8ml sensizym, 2.5 ml orca, 2.5ml mammoth p, ph to 6.9

 

[oldfogey8]

6.9 sounds high for your ph...

 

[buzzkillz]

oops i meant 5.9

 

[oldfogey8]

I read earlier posts after I posted and saw that you had been keeping your ph in the right range so I figured that 5.9 was your intent. My phone misinterprets my intent a lot too...
