Dinafem Cheese Auto CBD (CFL Grow)

[Dainn]

Hello AFN, I have grow a few autos and thought I should start a documented grow!
This is about as low budget as it gets;
1 x Dinafem Cheese Auto CBD seed.
1 x 8 litre Rhizopot (fabric air pot).
1 x 35w 2700k Spiral CFL for seedling to around 20 days or so.
1 x 125w 2700k with euro reflector for until the end.
1 x cheap bathroom exhaust fan.
1 x 8in fan for air movement.
Home made cabinet from whatever I could find.
Medium: SylvaGrow which is composed of Coniferous Bark, Wood Fibre and Coir with a PH of 6.5.
I also mixed a few tablespoons of Vitax Q4 + to the medium 4 days before planting.
Nutrients: AN Bloom + Cal mag + PK boost.
Tap water left to sit for 48 hours in an open bottle before mixing feeds.

Seed germinated in cotton pads, sprayed with water and sealed plastic container, popped into the boiler cupboard for 2 days, then planted direct into final container.

Day 1 (1 of 1 - 100% germination always a little concerned when buying single packs )

Day 7

The seedling is about 1.5 inches from the 35w CFL, I use a small USB fan to dissipate the heat.

It's a tiny space Mr @archie gemmill , L340mm x D280 x H450. This is just a starting space, a multiple use, multidimensional cupboard. From soil line to light I have a usable height of around 200mm, the top shelf tips upward to give her a little more room, she will have some early LST in here too. I will add a picture below.

Firstly thank you for documenting your grow on the AFN forum

Secondly nothing I like better than a "budget grow"

This shows growers what can be done with minimal equipment and pure determination

So far you are off to a nice start. Plant is showing some nice growth and more so looks very happy and healthy

Thank you again for documenting your Dinafem endeavour on AFN. I'll certainly be along for the ride and watching with interest

Until next time

All the best

Mark.

Day 10
Bend over! Naaaughty. I'm not hurting her, honestly! it looks worse than it is, just getting some Auxins flowing and light to the lower branchlets!

Day 11
Taking it like a champ. I will wait a few more days before making a decision to pinch the top out, or I will pin down the top again if her nodes stay tight.

The pot is 21cm across, she's riding low and wide for day 11
