Grow Mediums AutoPot 2.2 Gal easy2grow-4, Critical Mass, Amnesia, CBD Lime Compassion

[buddhakhan]

Good morning all. New to the site, autos and auto-pots. I have grown DWC photos for years, but wanted something less work and more modular. I purchased the easy2grow 4 unit, and I am running Technaflora nutes with CaliMagic added so far. Will probably add a sweetener as they get closer. Suggestions on that are welcomed. For lighting I have a 1000w dual spectrum MH/HPS, 400cfm fan for ventilation and temps and rh run about 82 and 40%.

Here are some pics of the ladies. And I see that I need to change the orientation on my phone.. oh well, too late now.

First pic, one week, green pots are Critical Mass, clay color is Amnesia, and the black pot is Lime Compassion

week two.

week three, into the easy2grow for one week and top watering,
CBD back left, Critical Mass front left and back right, Amnesia front right.. These things are growing so much faster than photos, it's unreal.

To that point, a week on the res at week 4 and they have exploded. I am thinking of rearranging for light usage.. thoughts?


Be back next week. Thanks for watching.

I’m impressed already, first message and the start of your first journal. That’s the way to do it.

Week 5, these things are beasts!! Left to right, critical mass, cbd lime compasssion, critical mass, and autoamnesia.The easy2grow system is a little too crowded for large strains. I think if all four were like compassion it would be much less crowded. They’re drinking a lot more than I though they would so I’ll probably upgrade the reservoir size next grow. The Lime compassion seems to be budding fastest, followed by the amnesia and the critical masses are slowly showing more bud. The amnesia is a massive plant though. Here are the girls.

Also to note. I am from an area hit by hurricane Michael. One amazing thing about the autopot system compared to dwc is they would have never survived 3 days without power on dwc.

Week 6! They’ve really exploded and I think the stretch is coming to a halt. Now time to add awesome blossoms and some led lighting.

 

[buddhakhan]

Well, we are two days shy of week 7 and the easy2grow 4 is way to much for this small of a closet. I think from now on I will grow 2 at a time and use the other two for the first month of water by hand. I feel bad for the CBD lime, she's short compared to her roommates and is missing some light. Next round I will only pair similar strains. I also added 600 watts of UFO LED...

So week 8 and all I can say is wow! I am sold on autoflowers and autopots. These things are just going crazy compared to normal photos I have grown. I did have issues with adding Awesome Blossoms, it made my res and system turn to gooo. So I just went back to regular bloom and boost from Technaflora and they are looking lovely. I had a bit of burn on the amnesia from the gooey stage, but a quick break down of the system and a fresh batch of AB free nutes and they look lovely. I rearranged because the second critical mass was literally exploding. It seems to be running a week behind on budding still, but I hope it has stopped growing vertically. One other note, I think moving forward I will only grow two at a time, these big strains are way too crowded. So here we are, left to right, Critical Mass - Canuk Seeds, CBD Lime Compassion by Dutch Passion(she's little compared to the other beasts, but smells amazing and looks to be a week a head of the rest of them). Then Autoamnesia by Canuk, and another Critical Mass. I read that the Canuk seeds were a bit unstable and I don't know if I agree or not. This one seems to be running late, but as this is my first foray into autos, I am not sure how much fluctuation in time is to be expected.. I think it'll be a nice christmas this year.

Week 9...

The first critical mass is growing big and strong. I think she’ll finish in 3 weeks.

This is the little CBD Lime. She really got robbed on this grow competing with the others, next grow I’m going to just grow two of them together to keep it even. She’s small but fast and smells amazing!!


AutoAmnesia is nice and tall, smells like pepper and for some reason has a bit of spotting where the other three have shown no nutrient issue. She looks like she has 2-3 weeks left.

The last but definitely not least critical mass. It’s running the latest but I think it wlll be a massive producer. .
