New Grower Outdoor Auto/photo grow, starting indoors

[Ras Greenthumb]

Bless up everyone,

Hope everyone had a beautiful 420 firstly!

I’ve got 4 auto’s which are:-

Royal Queen Seeds Amnesia Haze auto
(Unknown) Silver Haze auto
Pyramid Seeds Auto Purple
Flash Seeds Lemon Haze auto

All my autos are in 8ltr smart pots with bio bizz light mix and eco-thrive Charge dry fertiliser mixed in there.

I’ve grown in 8ltr smart pots previously but only ever inside, will I need to up the size for outdoors?


I also have 2 photo strains:-

Strawberry Cough
Gelato 41

They’re both in plastic bottles while they’re developing, will be transferred to 16ltr smart pots when needed. Also in bio bizz light mix without the dry fertiliser.

The Lemon haze auto is germinating as my previous seed didn’t germinate the other three are all 3 days old. The auto purple seems to be struggling by the look of its first true leaves, they’re curled up and a little yellow at the ends. I did have to remove the seed shell after the first day as it seemed to be stuck, maybe due to that?

My Gelato 41 is 6 days old and looking great,
Strawberry Cough is 5 days old and looking lovely too catching up nicely!

Currently all my seedlings are under a 250w HPS bulb with standard reflector on a 16/10 cycle which is a happy medium in between real sunlight outdoors at the moment in Northern England 14/10 and the desired 18/6.

They’re currently in an empty wardrobe in my bedroom which isn’t ideal but workable. Aiming to have them outdoors in my garden inside a poly tunnel at the closest possible time!

My temps are around 27 degrees lights on, 20/21 with lights off. 50/60% humidity.

Any advice and guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Peace and Love
Ras

Yeah I’ve opted for pots just incase the plants need to come indoors at any point. I would definitely love to do a direct to ground grow at some point though to see how big they can get.

Thanks man I’ll do my best!

Bless up everyone,

Had some issues this week with my plants falling over, I don’t know if this is from them being too lanky or something else?

All my autos have some light green discolouring on the leaves too, maybe this is linked? Although one Auto has not fallen over yet.

My temps have been pretty stable, still around 26/27 with lights on, 20/22 with lights off. Humidity is 60/70%.

Auto Purple Day 10

This is the smallest of my autos, has light green discolouring on the leaves and needed support for last few days.

Silver Haze Auto Day 10

Doing much better than the Purple but also has the discolouring and has needed support for last few days.

Amnesia Haze Auto Day 10

Doing the best of the three, has not needed support but does have the light green discolouring.

Strawberry Cough Day 12

Absolutely loving life, growing the fastest out of everything. Has needed support but no discolouring.

Gelato 41 Day 13

Also doing great, no discolouring and no support needed.

Mainly looking quite healthy overall but if anyone knows what’s causing them to fall over without support would be great. Also the discolouring if you’re able to make it out in the photos.

Peace & Love
