Yes it'll work out fine

kerry420...just another opinion...but when your girlz start to spread out...the footprint of a single LED will not be enuff' to get optimum results...multiple lower wattage LED lights would probably serve you better...a single HPS could be another option, but also can bring heat issues...just some food for thought...cheerz...h00k...

thanks! i ll have it in my mind. autoflower in coco soil needs feeds feeding once a week n the rest days just watering? or every day i add the nutrients to water?

 

[Imhigh85]

I feed daily but I use a very low dose

 

[Pennywise]

Same here, i feed coco daily but run fairly low ppm's

 

[Imhigh85]

I run 500-600 PPM

 

[kerry420]

and we are talking about coco soil right? not coco coil? (still trying to discover their diferrences and which is better) - totally confused newbie here-

 

[Imhigh85]

Coco soil

 

[kerry420]

Think Different is an auto flower strain. i m gonna still need to feed it so often in coco soil or it has nothing to do the fact that is an autoflower?

 

[Imhigh85]

Not much difference in them at all and it has nothing to do with autoflowers it's just another grow medium Growers like it because it has a lot of air flow for the roots sometimes mixed with soil the unpack the soil help oxygen is the roots contains no nutrients

 

[kerry420]

Imhigh85 thank you mate next week im gonna have everything i ll start a journal and hopefully i ll get some help from you and other growers..

 

[Imhigh85]

Feel free to pick my mind for answers anytime I get bored sitting in here with all these plants

 

[kerry420]

well ok then one more lol
what do you think is better for led 900 watt for autoflowering plants ? lighting 16/8 20/4 24/7 ?

 

[Imhigh85]

I believe that plants need to sleep so this is a in-depth answers if you are doing an secret grow and I say 18/6

If you are a medical grower you can go with 20/4

And the reason for this is it keeps you out of business hours longer less likely for anybody to find if you know what I mean

 

[kerry420]

yeah i know what you mean im a medical tho so i dont have that kind of problem!

 

[Imhigh85]

If you don't mind me asking what does your whole setup consist of

 

[wiley420]

If ur growing in coco an NOT using coco specific nutes u need a calmag supliment. I use general hydroponics 2 stage an calimagic an have great success with it. Some like the 3 part an I believe they even now have s coco specific formula. Any hydro nutes will work just be sure to add calmag if it's not coco specific

 

[kerry420]

a grow tent 1,2m x 1,2m x 2m, a 900 watt LED light with veg n bloom switches, 2 ventilation fans, Dutch Passion Think DIfferent seeds and now thinking how exactly to grow them, simpe soil or coco? thats why i joined you guys cause im really worried because its my first time

 

[wiley420]

Coco is a great way to grow, hard to mess up.

 

[kerry420]

well lets hope so, i ll do my best, im still a bit confused about the p.h and adding the nutrients and things like that but i think i will make it
