Good day mates, I have been growing for over a decade. My last grow was a double disaster. I had changed from Nirvana Seeds to Seed Supreme who was supposed to have better genetics. The whole grow was the slowest I have ever experienced. For some reason I lost three of my photos. I also had a medical patient dependent on me. So I ran the numbers and figured I could add in 3 autos and have everything ready to harvest at the same time. I ordered feminized autoflower seeds from ilgm.com (I Love Growing Marijuana) which I heard had good seeds. To be fair these autos were under a 12/12 light schedule for their entire life. I only pulled 0.6 ounces off of the Bubba Kush and Jack Herer. The Critical Mass CBD only yielded 0.4 ounces. To top it all of 88% of my grow got bud rod and had to be thrown out. This happened because after I cleaned my humidifier before the three days of lights out before harvest, it reset itself from 55% RH to 78% RH. So now as a medical Cannabis user I am in a not so wonderful place.
For my next grow I went back to Nirvana Seeds and purchased Critical, Lemon OG Haze and Northern Lights feminized autoflower seeds. I want to be conservative with this grow as I don't want to pay dispensary prices for a lower quality product that there is a good chance is not as safe as what I grow for myself. For my last two or three grows I started using Nugbuckets' mainlining technique which I really like for its' higher harvest weight and ease of trimming. Here is a link explaining how it works: https://www.growweedeasy.com/mainlining-nugbuckets. What I am wondering is if anyone has tried mainlining genetics from Nirvana Seeds and if so was it successful.
I plan to start and finish them in a 7 gallon equivalent Air-Pot after reading something on this forum. That being said I feel that I could easily transplant them with minimal shock.
I am planning to run a 20/4 (on/off) schedule during veg and then to switch to a 12/12 schedule during flower. Am I correct that I should cut the lights back during flower with autos? Also I am little confused about when and/if I should change the lights on and off times.
