1st Auto Grow - 1%er

[Mello136]

Been a long time since I’ve been active. Hope everyone is doing ok. I decided to give autos a shot. She’s at day 5 from sprout, 4 Gallon, 250w full spectrum led (for now), 2x2x4 tent, and rh between 65-70%, temps around 75ish usually, and pre amended soil (came with the seed and pot as a kit). Plan was to lay her over at day 25ish oooor top her once and lite defoliation. Open to viable suggestions though. Stay awesome and thanks for coming through.

Hey welcome back .

Autos are e-zzzzzzzzzzzz, your gonna love this grow. The only suggestion that comes to mind is to not wait til day 25 to top. Auto flowers grow fast and enter flower around that time, finishing up 70-80 days from seed. So I would recommend topping as soon as you have the 4-5 node which in my experience is about week 2 or day 12-14.

Photo below is an auto flower I grew.

Good luck.

Quick pic update of day 7 for this auto, the 1%er. Not sure if that strain even exists… I can’t find any info online for it anywhere but she seems to be doing ok and I kind of like the mystery. “What colors will she have?” or “Will she be frosty?” are questions that keep coming up.

Daily dose of pic updates, day 8:

Week 2 and she’s got the new light. Viparspectra xs1500 pro. They recommend 11 inches at 25%. Seems kinda close to the plant anybody else have any insight on this?

At 25% 11 inches should be fine.
Just watch the leaves and make sure there isn’t an adverse reaction.
Great light.
Congrats.

Thx she loves it. Also got the ax infinity hygrometer this is the read at the moment. Might need to work on this soon since she’s about to start her veg cycle. Probably drop temps to about 70f and rh to 50 for the rest of the grow.

Day 15

 

[Mello136]

Day 16: some misting but possibly watering tonight or tomorrow after lights come back on.

 

[Mello136]

Day 17: 1 liter water and increase light to 50% can’t seem to get temps down prob gotta get a 3rd fan

 

[Mello136]

Day 18 temps seem more stable. Added a fan to pull heat from the light. 2-5 more days and I’ll most likely start tying her down.
