  1. Can I have your opinion on what's the best soil and nutrients to use for growing auto flowers under LED lights?
    Thank you.

  6. If you're new to growing and don't want to mix up your own living organic soil. This bagged medium Coast of Maine Stonington blend will carry you from start to finish with water only. I would suggest starting in the pot you intend to finish in and using a starter plug of Jiffy seed starter mix in your pots center. I use between a solo cup size plug to a 1/2 gallon size plug.

    Jump over to page one of Organic sinse's thread for a better explanation of the starter plug.

  8. You can grow cannabis in any medium. For auto strains, you want a fast no-hiccup type grow. Good organic growers (like @TimJ ) have great success, but that doesn't disqualify DTW methods, where soiless (peat based) or coco (and perlite) mixes and fertilizers (like Maxibloom, but many exist) can overtake the organic methods.
    A few years ago (2020), I grew some autos I purchased from SweetSeeds. Four of the plants I grew in BudMud, a premixed organic soil blended for cannabis. The fifth plant I grew in coco and fed her DTW pretty close to each day. Here's the results:

    Plant #4.JPG
    Those first four pictures are the organic mixes.

    Plant #5 (coco).JPG
    This last plant was grown in the same tent, started at the same time, but was planted in coco/perlite and fed DTW. I did not detect any loss of taste or anything strange compared to the other plants, I just got a lot more.

    I'd recommend you to check out this site for more info on coco.

  11. I Love making/eating burritos. Use good lean ground beef, spices, then I mash the beans in there and add some hot peppers.
    When I roll them up, I add some grated cheese then give em a quick grill. I only ate 1 burger today ... making me hungry!

  12. Autoflowers have a distinct veg stage which lasts for the first 30 days, then they go into flower for about 60 days. Best results for me is then two nutrient regiments, one for veg then one for flower.
    Best veg I have found for autoflowers is the Dyna Gro Foliage Pro. It was designed for cannabis after the studies showed the optimum NPK ratio 9-3-6 with calcium and magnesium added. They were the first to create a calcium that would not bind with Phosphorus. So it was an all in one formula. But still, growers found the addition of silica is a great benefit, So then they created ProtekT which when added at proper strength creates a ratio of 9-3-9, which is about the same ratio as the standard 20-10-20 that has been used by farmers of all crops for years. But if you were to buy the Dyna Ph Down and add it to your water to bring it to 6.5, then add the Protekt, then add the FP and start the seedling at a total of 300ppm and gradually increase the FP to 600ppm by end of veg at 30 days you should have a perfect speciman for flowering. I run the ProtekT and the FP at a 1:1 ratio.
    For flowering I just use Jacks Finish and calmag. No ph adjustment is neccessary once you figure out how much Jacks you need to bring your ph down to your desired range, in my case it is heaping 1/4 tsp for 3 qts tap water, then 1/4 tsp of calmag per qt (not liter.)
    You asked. All I grow is autos and this is as simple as I can find that works and grows perfect autos every time.

  13. Best "soil" is the Bugsby Mix 50/50 peat/vermiculite with a little gypsum and dolomite added. I add 1/4 cup of dolomite and one tbsp gypsum to 8 qts of peat and 8 qts of vermicuite.
