Hello growmies, I've decided to take the plunge and pop my seeds and start a thread. In the autopot I'm using Nature's living soil autoflower blend. I did 2/3 blended with Happy Frog soil, then top 1/3 just HF. The earthboxes I'm using BAS light and plan on topdressing with their craft blend and build a flower top dress. I'm in a 5x5 with a Mars Hydro FC-E8000, 6"AC infinity with controller. Humidifier 1gal running on an inkbird controller. I'm really looking forward to this journey with everyone. This site is a wealth of knowledge that hopefully I can tap into to help in my success. Many thanks to everyone in this community

1/22 first two seeds in earthboxes broke through. All I'm doing is misting the top of the soil when dry, avoiding base of the seedlings. I'm trying to keep Temps around 77-83 and humidity 60-70.

This is around day 11 from popping up through the soil. Still just misting the top of soil when dry.

The 2 earthbox plants look great. The third plant in the Autopot looks a little funky, not sure whats going on. I'm hoping it grows out of it.
 
They seem like they are ready for their first full watering. The containers all feel dry. I planned on adding BAS Quillaja, Root Wise mycrobe complete, and Recharge. I'm wondering if it is to early to add in BAS big 6 micronutrients and RW enzyme elixir. The soil should be able to take them to 3 weeks according to what I have read. So I'm not sure if I should wait until the following watering to add anything else. I planned on top dressing the earthboxes around week 3. These products are what I plan on using. Any tips or suggestions?

tagging along for this grow as you're a few days ahead of me. As far as the last picture, it's quite intimidating to a new grower. Lots and lots of amendments and I'd get lost at ratios etc. Good luck dude
First off super happy to have you tagging along. I'm a new grower to my friend. I have a schedule from Build a Soil I'm trying to adjust to autoflowers. If you have any questions abouts what I'm going with I'm definitely happy to explain with you why I thought it might be beneficial. You say you are a week behind me what do you have running , what is your plan? If you don't mind me asking.

This is my run. My intention is to keep things as simple as possible, with hands off as much as possible. I’m too new to really know how much fine grained care you need to put in but I found when I do too much it’s not helpful to the plants
