New Grower mkono's first auto grow - Chocolate Thai

[mkono87]

Hey all!

This is my 2nd grow but 1st for autos and im super excited to start this adventure. I had a pretty successful run with the photos on the first grow and would say I have less newbie stress going into this grow than the first. So lets get this journal started.

Little info on the setup
Tent: 4x4
Light: 600w mh/hps
Inline Fan: Vivosun 6" 390cfm
Filter: Vivosun 6" Carbon filter
Pots: 5gal
Medium: Sunshine Mix #4
Nutrients: Megacrop & Sweet Candy
Strain: Chocolate Thai (weed-seeds.ca) No longer in business

Day 1 auto grow. Already started feeding her a small amount of MC (140ppm) close to 1gram/gal. Soaked the peat to run off and now time to wait. I dont realizing getting the whole pot wasnt the best idea and I didnt at first. I was stupid I listened to advice from somewhere else.

A quick 8 days later and this is where we stand. Slowly giving her small doses of megacrop keeping mind of the most likely still wet bottom of the pots. But they are happy and loving life so far.

14 days later and they growing nicely raising up the MC up to 500ppm and just letting her go. Im getting close to the point where im going to start saturating the whole pot. Im thinking of waiting till 4-5 nodes before I start to bend them over and start some lst. That one in the solo cup im probably not going to grow out. I just germinate 5 as a back up but all popped.

On a side note, Im very happy with how stable the temps and humidity have been since venting outside. All winter during my first grow, I had it recirculating inside as I just couldn't get the RH up, but temp an issue. The furnace is in the same room as the tent mixed with HID lights made it such a pain in the ass to control.
