The Great Auto Showdown

Is it an auto? But yes you can join. If it's a photo will be you vs Furley If it's an auto u vs all autos. Welcome to the fun.
 
🙋‍♂️ Question! So I currently have my 4 seedlings under 96w of cfl. They’re only a day old. When should I switch to my 400w MH? I want them to get some good light in they’re little span of veg life. Then it’ll be the HPS for flower.

Retodd - that fluxing method looks awesome! I have done single mainlines for most of my grows, which is similar to his technique, just not nearly as intricate. Right now I'm doing a double mainline, and very excited to see the results.

I'm curious to see how fluxing an auto will go. Do you think you will be able to get as much time in Veg as you need? I noticed he let his plants go for like 3 months in veg. Then again, I don't do the traditional mainline that's laid out in this website. I just make sure I leave one node on when she has about 5 or 6 nodes. (now 2 nodes since I'm doing a double mainline.)

Anyway, thanks for the link! I would love to try that on the next go round!
 
Well I went from four tails to 16 helmet heads lol I have been setting up a auto drain that actually works and a auto feeding set up while I was doing this I took out my hps light and installed a 630v prism cmh light fixture ,after I plugged the power cord into the light and then I went to plug it in the wall and I saw this WTF WTF WTF about 10 times ,then I thought their might be another cord in the box nope .about 10 more WTFs then I went back and pulled the inside box from the outside box and there it was a normal plug lol and here it is today is moving day veg into bloom

oldjarhead100 are you running the full 630 CMH during veg? I also have a 630 CMH fixture and I am only running one bulb right now per my local grow shops suggestion. Just seems like more light the better for the shorter veg period of autos. I had the same thing happen to me too with that 240volt cord. My choice words were said until I stumbled upon it
 
Retodd I been keeping a eye on her (I think it's time to replace the tubes, last couple of seedlings been a little stretchy)

all these Things are:
Royal Gorilla Auto
8-10 weeks
50% Indica/30% Sativa/20% Ruderallis


Thing 1
she is doing great, perhaps a little leggy, measuring almost 2.5 inches. She has been working on opening up her leaves, almost to the edge of the cube, can see the next node starting

Thing 2
really slow. Germinated same date as Thing 1. I think I see movement, but might just be wishful thinking

Thing 3
germinated as encouragement to Thing 2 😁. She is straining hard to get out of the rock wool.

So I feel like my seedlings have come out with somewhat “burnt tips”??! But I can’t tell because they’re so small. But they definitely look lighter in color on the very tip. Which I don’t understand how because they’re only in FFHF soil and I haven’t fed. Just pHd water so far.
