Grow Mediums autoflower feeding chart

[tank1386]

i was jus wondering if anyone could help me with this.... wat would the feeding chart be for a Critical Mass Autoflower being grown in a single shot bubble boy hydro system under a 400w MH? i have this in a 2.5 x 2.5 x 5 tent, with a 6in and 8in fan and also a humidifier. i have the 2 larger fans due to the heat from the HID, but the ballast is digital and has 3 settings 50%,75%,or 100%. currently running at 75% and about 3ft away. temp has been 77-80 and the humidity from 40-50%....first time grower here open to all ideas!

How far into it are you? Are you measuring in ec or ppm? Got some pictures you can post? Cause looking at the leaves will tell you a lot about the state of the plant and how hungry it is for nutes. Most of us could dx a problem with one snapshot. Also what kinda nutes are you runnin? Love to help but need some additional info.

i believe the foxfarm chart is ppm...i have the trio(big bloom, grow big, & tiger bloom). i am at the end of day 4 and the seedling is getting ready to drop the shell. i am trying to get some info before its too late, and all the extensive research i have done has lead me in a circle. also, does the grow op sounds suffient enough to produce quality buds?

for my grow medium, hydrostone and 1 agromax(all natural seed starting plug). other than that, its 3 gals of distilled h2o

There are seedling feeds and by the development of the first true internode you'll need to be on low grow solution. Early seedling feed can be made with Grow Big 1/3cc per gal-
If before internode strech your stems purple then increase by an other 1/3 cc per gal up to -- 200ppms by steps , for Grow Big that's (1 & 1/3 per gal) Up to the first internode stretch being too cautious is sufferable-- so up to then err on the side of caution if unsure. If the stem never purples hold until stretch. Now I'm just starting autos and that is my photo feed stuff-- so some of these auto-pros may know otherwise:check:

well today is day 5! my Critical Mass AF has dropped the remainder of the shell and is looking good! was wondering when i should start calling it the veg cycle.....i have read that some wait until there are 3 sets of leaves and others start calling at the first site of green growth!

I gave my critical until they were 1wk old then I switched from seedling to veg nutes

it all depends on your nutrients. Some brands state to use micro during micro, veg during veg, and bloom during flowering. Others suggest that you use a combination of all three throughout their entire life. I used advanced nutrients, my girl is 9 weeks old and her ppm is 3000. I have had some plants not even make it to 1500 during their entire life. My advice to you is to take it slow and go with a 1/4 dose at first, she how she takes it and slowly work her up to a full dose. Hope this helps.

Peace.

cant help with the nutes mate as i use canna ,but a root stimulator may be a good suppliment for a seedling in DWC....i started with that & a seedling feed , then switched to veg nutes after week 2 ...PPM would have been between 400 - 500 =ec 0.8 - 1.0 in the 1st week & upped 100 ppm every week from then.

your setup sounds fine ...good luck

If Stunted was here he'd tell you to start by dousing the plants with half the bottle of nutes. He could grow plants in cement mix though. Dunno how he does it. Have a read through.
