I actually started with autos (terribly lol) for my first year or two of growing. I'm interested to see if I can get good results now that I can get plants off to an OK start.
I always struggled to give my autos a good first 3 weeks so they were often stunted...
I might also have to move my operation to the basement where I will need lighting 24/7 to keep temps reasonable.
Also I've been reading through a journal that inspired me back in the day.
@KsjAuto doesn't post here very often anymore, but he has one of the coolest setups using minimal space and light, and harvests more than a gram per watt pretty much on a monthly basis.

I'm going to see if I can do something similar but with ebb and flow instead of TFR.
Enjoy the excessively long answer LOL... [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]
