Topdraw Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Hi mate sounds like a good set up you have there. All I would say is try get your environment sorted from the off as the most crucial time for autos is the veg period....which is very short so if you mess that up then you'll never recover. What pots you starting in ? I would go for around 4-5" pots for 7-10 days then whack em in your auto pots and watch them fly. Don't know how your watering system works but you'll maybe need to have the flow right down when the plants are small to help them roots go searching. By the way what strains you got and how many plants in that space ? best of luck mate. cheers TD 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topdraw Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 they love the light mate, I'd start on the 250 as you say then go for full power after a couple of weeks. Just keep the light high until your confident enough the plants can take it lower down. Personally I run the lights 24/7 from start to finish, seems to work pretty well. cheers TD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
