Hi guys, my name is Nigel. Nice to know there is such a nice community with helpful people. I am completely new to autoflower growing, infact i don't even have experience with growing any plants but because i love the herb, i decided to grow my own. I have ordered some seeds online and they are probably coming today and i plan to buy J Arthur Bower's Multi-Purpose Compost with added John Innes (50 L) tomorrow. I have a few questions to ask and hopefully they can be answered as i am completely new to this.
1 - Is J Arthur Bower's Multi-Purpose Compost with added John Innes okay for my autoflowers ? I plan to put the seedling straight to the final pot that is filled with it.
2 - I am gonna germinate the seed by putting it in a glass of water and leaving it in my room (on my table) till it sprouts. There might be some sunlight but it won't shine directly on the glass of water and the temperature here ranges from 30c-33c and humidity is 61-64% in the morning-afternoon. Will that affect the germination process?
3 - If all is well, i'm gonna plant the seed straight into the final pot (10L). I don't plan to transplant because i'm really new to this and i have read alot about transplanting for autoflowers ain't good. (Sorry similar to question 1)
4 - I'm growing on my balcony/window(I can't afford to grow indoor). Do i put the pot straight there after i plant the seed or do i leave it in my room? Is it able to take sunlight immediately ?
5 - How much water should i feed it after planting the seed and i have no idea how much water to feed throughout the growing process till harvest.
6 - Since i plan to buy JAB's Multi-Purpose Compost with added JI tomorrow, i'm gonna buy the 10 L pot (probably 2) and also should i buy nutes ? Maybe like for blooming or vege ?
That's all the questions i have for now. I'm sorry for the bombarding of questions but i really wish for my plants to be healthy and not die on me especially since i have a very low budget and i spent almost all my food allowance on the seeds,soil,pots and maybe nutes. I might do a grow journal too! Peace my friends.
