Hey @InTheShed @Virgin Ground @StoneOtter @Amy Gardner @copperrein @Bud Love @Grand Daddy Black and everyone jump in! Well, I Decided to make a new grow journal for just my autos that are now growing in my grow tent on my back deck. I thought I should keep it separate from my Geoflora grow that I have going with my photo period Godfather OG’s in the greenhouse. I’m really going to need some bud in 90 days so I could not play any longer with these autos in the greenhouse with supplemental lighting so now all the little darlings are in my big grow tent on my deck underneath an old deck umbrella that we did not use anymore. The grow tent itself is actually waterproof but I have a tarp that covers it and the deck umbrella and then on top of that I have a 70% shade cloth that keeps things cool for me. I’m on a 20 hour on for the lights and four hours off and four hours off are during the hottest part of the day. Right now it’s 86° out and my girls are with the lights off in the tent and the tent temperature is staying the same temperature as outside whereas with the lights on, I have about an 8° increase in temperature. They are thriving with all that extra lighting time. I’m going to be feeding them a little different than I am feeding my photo plants. We have about six rabbits so rabbit crap is in the abundance over at my place. I’m going to make some rabbit crap tea today and I will be feeding the autos some of that as a supplement in addition to my Foxfarm nutrients. I’m also adding a tablespoon of Epson salt to the mix. The autos that I have growing are 2 Northern lights and 3 gelato autos. I have two gelato autos that have not broke the surface yet because I just put them in the soil yesterday but I have a feeling that they will all end up at harvest about the same time.
