Ive got the same question for autoflowering strains in general. Im strapped for cash and can only get one part of the FF system. Im assuming the one you need the most is the nutes for budding?(big bloom) Peace.
Ya man if youve got the money just use the same nutes that are recommended for regular strains. Advanced nutrients, general hydroponics, and Fox Farm. Theres also all in one nutes like Humboltd Nutrients "Oneness". In my case though I think i think going with FloraNovas Bloom.
Ya thats wat im sayin...if their veg period is only 2-3 weeks i want to give them nutes to get big. But ur suppose to wait 2-3 week for reg strains. Thats what you recommend for flowering?
Ok, I found this, ripped it from the web. This info came from a grower who claimed to be experienced with auto strains so take it for what its worth. "All auto's get fed from the first set of cotyledons on with the following mix. PBP grow, 1/2 of recommend nute strength, and the other 1/2 is PBP bloom nutes. They get this mix for the first weeks of life until they flower, after I get flowers its on to full strength nutes or even higher strength nutes. They get the same foliar feed ass all my plants, and get a dose of cal max every second feed. I highley recomend starting in larger pots than you would normally use"
Some Things Ive found.. Lowryder growguide when doin autos use a pot about 2 to 2 1/2 gal transplant only once at max start in deep cup not 4 incher deep like fat drink size treat as seedling 3 weeks skinch food start food at about 1/5 go up to about 1/2 max does not like strong food food every other likes root stimulator best use 20/4 least 18/6 light schedl flush week eight i normally transplant week three plant normally show sex day 17 to 21 flower week 3 to week 9 for 6 weeks done
He's giving them flowering nutes before they even flower? I've read that they like root stimulators, and start in bigger pots as well. Theres not much about autoflower and nutes
I found out planting them in FFOF fox farm ocean forest soil has enough nutes in it for vegging, autos need flowering nutes only, use FFTB fox farm tiger bloom 1 week after sexing (male or female)
i got Lowryder Easy Ryder AKA Lowryder #2 x AK47 and im using FF nutes and Dr. Earth organic soil. So far i only used Big bloom at full strength and she seemed to love it..i started feedin her every other watering startin at day 16 with it and for the grow big im kinda scared to use that anywhere near full strength so i use it like 1/5 strength and so far soo good
heard about using unsulphured blackstrap molasses when budding. use about 1/4teaspoon per litre of water. google it... meant to product 1/3 bigger buds and cheap as hell
Do you use blackstrap molases for veg and flower? I will be growing widow ryder this grow season and am not totally sure what o should do for nutes
i havent used it myself, but have read about it... think you use it during flowering but i'd research it a little more before you do use it

I got some Afghan Kush Ryder's I'm going to plant and had the same questions. Autos seem to be a hidden secret.
