Hey all.
Ive never done any autos before but have been following zipps auto gorilla glue grow and i managed to win some fast bud auto gorilla glue in the botm comp so here i am about to have a go an see what all the fuss is about.
Im only going small with this bean because i dont know whats what with them yet so my veg box has been tweaked a bit so it can run both bulbs at the same time for max light.
50cm x 50cm box.
125w blue spec cfl.
200w red spec cfl.
10ltr fabric pot.
Canna coco a & b.
Rhizotonic.
Pk13/14
Sorted
So ive left the lights on for the day to get everything upto temp and filled an watered the coco with warm water to help bring the temp upto operating temp quicker.
Bean is soaking in a shot glass waiting to be put into a root riot cube then straight into the coco once we got a few roots.

So would anyone like to recommend a feeding strength coz ive heard they done like to much.

Hey M
Best of luck m8, I'm sure you'll find it worthwhile
I just use drops of things for soaking cubes and first week, but my tap water is stupidly heavy
You prolly don't need more than 0.1 above background I'd say
TBH I haven't seen much difference between autos & photos, not in nutrient consumption or drinking capacity anyway. Obviously I never grew those early autos, but they must have come on a shit load coz there really aint much diff.
Only real diff is if you burn autos you lose time & mebe yield, but they do like nutes when they get going

Hey sprink
Cheers for the advise.
My waters ec is 0.1 so i always need to start quickly with feed.
Will start at 0.3 an see how it fairs after 5 days above the coco.
I usually start at that in coco so will see what happens
