New Grower Dr.Autoflowers Auto Question Center

dr autoflower, huge fan. im a very new grower, and out of all the research ive done, i appreciate your vids the best. one reason is you dont drop f'bombs every other word, like alot of the other growers, and also because your "autoflower specific". Ive included you basic guide to autoflowers in my journal in the notes section, and use it for my basic guideline. I would, however like to hear more about the use of T5's on the beginning, how many u use, where to place them, etc. Ive got feminized seeds to start my first grow, so I dont wanna use my 1000 watts hps and herm them out, so i bought two 4ft T5's and have them directly over my (4) 5 gallon pots lined up vertically, about 8 inches above the plant buckets. My plan was to use them for the first 2-3 weeks, then switch to the hps, and prob continue to use them for side growth. Well, anyhow, I just wanted to tell you that im a fan, and keep the vids coming, because alot of us def use them! Take it easy buddy! PS- here is a pic of my setup, if you have time, and ONLY if you have time, let me know what you think! Thanks man!

Is foliar feeding ok? I feed her big bloom tiger bloom Budswel Calmag. I have humbolt crystal burst that I was wondering if i can foliar spray her or is it better just to add to feeding schedule??

Hey Doc, Here I am at five weeks from germination. In a 4x4x6 1/2 grow tent with a couple of UFO Leds and a couple of CFLs, my auto-Big Bud and my auto-Lowrider2 are flowering. But my auto-White Widow won't flower - its 32 inches tall and won't flower! Some are in hydro and some are in soil. Neither the soil nor the hydro White Widow will flower. Should I give it more time or should I induce flowering with 12-12 or 18-6 and if I do, what will that do to my already flowering BB and LR2?

Give it some more time on the Widow man, if by another week it hasn't flowered, then finish off your auto's at 18-6, if you switch to 12-12, the other auto's yield will be significantly diminished. After you finish your auto's, treat the widows as a photo and finish them off at 12-12. Make sure to report your widow strain and bank on your grow so others know they are another Barney's Sweet Tooth i.e. NOT AUTO.

thats funny..i posted the comment just a couple weeks ago..man ive learned so much in two weeks, it makes what i wrote seem stupid. i guess dr autoflower isnt around much after all, huh? anyways, my grow is still super young, and ive got so much more learning to do, but how far ive come in such little time makes me feel great.
