Going to try another batch of autoflowers

[abeepingandabeep]

Hey, I tried growing "Gelato Biscotti" and turned out they were auto flowers which are about to be harvested. I still got half a season left so I'm going to try another strain of autos called Papaya Apricot.

Gonna grow them in the ground in my garden. Any suggestions? Start indoors or? I got 4 so I don't mind doing a little variation. Maybe 1 in a bucket.

Not an auto grower yet, but from what I've read you don't want to transplant them as they may not have time to recover...

Ahh. OK Ill direct sow.

You have time to do it,I would start them in door and then put them out side

Would you keep them in pots Gator or transplant into the ground? I'm gonna run the gauntlet and put a few around the back yard this season.

If you are growing in an existing garden, you will have the same pest issues on your weed you might get in your garden. But you should not treat your garden pests and weed pests the same, especially when flowering time comes. I've grown vegetable gardens and I've grown weed. Knowing what I know about pests, I would never grow them together. Lots of folks do it. It's a way it's done. Just not this gingerly coiffured beard.
If your heart is set on growing in your garden, put garden soil in pots and grow in those pots in your garden. It will give you a chance to move your weed if problems arise.
And what Wayzee said.

Good point dab, and yes, I would start them inside in a 5-7 gallon bag or plastic pot,mix your soil heavy with worm castings, collect rain water for the plants, don't top them,top dress at the end of week 3 of veg and every 3 weeks after
