I am in my first grow and I have decided to add an autoflower to keep me occupied and my hands off the BUDS!!! LOL My question is simple. I have three choices for pots. I have a 3 gallon smart pot which is big but not tall, I have a 10 inch self watering pot that is deeper but not as much soil, and I can make a very tall pot from a food jug but it would not be very big around. I have seen on youtube that the autoflowers like a deep pot. So please help me as I am new and want to do the right thing. The seed is AutoBomb and is ready to go. It is germinated and it is feminized. I would appreciate the responses. Thanks Budy2shoes
I'd go with the Smart Pot too. I had to make this decision in my grow too - I had 3 gallon grow bags which were taller, and the Smart Pots. After MUCH reading, I decided to go with the Smart Pots. Also, 3 gallons is more than enough for an Auto, so that's what made me OK with it.
Hey not to swipe your thread, but I am currently running my first auto for experimentation. I have her in a tiny jiffy pot in FFOF and plan on just dropping her into a larger 2-3 gallon pot once she is substantially larger. What do you guys think? This is her now: Also for more specs: She popped on the 2nd of March so she has been in there for 10 days. Thanks!
I would go ahead and transplant it. Im no expert but it looks like it stretched some and if you transplant you could just bury it a little bit up the stem. Thats just my two cents;;hope it yields good for ya either way!
Hey has anyone seen my thread? Ha on the swipe. Good luck with that auto. I am trying the autobomb and planted the seed last night. I am understanding auto's do not like to be transplanted. It can stunt their growth. So as they have said I would do it now. Keep us updated....See ya, Budy2shoes
looking good, thanks for the info! I just finished transplanting and put her under my LED, is it too soon to switch lighting? I have heard many lights can be used for whole cycles. I transplanted and got my plant on 16/8. Let me know what you think guys!
