Indoor Newbie, questions.

[Bobble]

First, let me start by apologizing! First time I found this site was just today. I'm not sure I have a good grasp of the navigation. I see forums at top, and a few sub topics. I hope I'm not missing something.

I have a question about by new grow. I just received an order of Auto Flower seeds. This is my first time with them. I am germinating 2 Pakastan Ryder and 2 La Diva. They are fems. I'm going to add them to 2 Kush seedlings that I have going, fem. Not Auto. I use DWC.

My question is about lighting. I use four T-5 tubes in one fixture, 4 feet long. I also have a 180 watt Jumbo UFO LED and a 90 watt UFO LED. I control humidty with house A/C. Keep temps about 70-80 degrees f. The space is about 4 x5 feet. in a spare room.

Do have enough light is my primary question? Also, do I use the same nutes as non Auto? Oh yeah, It seems like there is conflicting info about light cycle. Someone said 24/0 another 20/4 and then the 18/6 (which I used in veg. state for non auto.

Thoughts, ideas, suggestion are very welcome, as I am pretty inexperienced.

Lost one crop to sever spider mite infection, last year. Think that is in the past, however.

Thanks,

Bobble

Again, sorry if this is repetitive. I'm impatient and probably could have found some info in FAQs?

WELCOME to the website. i learend alot as you can find aything you want to know here.

but as for growing photos along side autos it gets tricky. you see as you grow your photos veg on the stanard 18/6 light schedule autos usualy are grown best at 20/4 light schedule as i have read on this very site. things can especialy get difficult during your light change in order to flower your non auto. if you flower your photo at say week 6 your autos will be under 12 12 for the final 4 weeks of their life and this will dramaticlay decrease yeild in comparison to a 20/4 light schedule. so unless your going to veg your photos for ten weeks under 20/4 or 18/6 i dont suggest running both side by side ... just my opinion tho . but im sure there is people out there who have done it and had sucsess i however am not one of them and dont plan to attmept this unless i have seprate grow setups for photo and auto.

good luck on eveything with your grow and do your self a favor and explore afn, use it to your advantage, and may you have a bountiful harvest of the stankiest of danks.

dude put your autos on with your veg photos if you like 18/6 is fine..... idk where you guys come up with this it needs to be this and the yields will suffer greatly.... 18/6 is fine enjoy mixing the two.

With the nutes I would go light, Its pretty amazing that you can grow alot on an auto without insane ppms, they can do really well on 500-700 at the limit. I used 20/4 light, but I don't know if that extra two hours per day would make the huge diff either, but that it what I was recommended.

Welcome and have fun, when they take off, it is a really fun ride, from the time you see pistils, there will be some explosive growth and then some explosive bud development.

I'm planning to separate them when it's time to flower the non Auto. I was kind of hoping the Auto's will be finished by the time I have to flower the the Kush.

I appreciate the input!
