Newbee here with autos and don't know how much chem fert to give them. Using canna Terra veg, and it calls for 19 ml per gallon. Got 5 diferent strains going on day 15 from seed. Also in soil indoors. Thanks for the help. Peace.
 
Assuming first feeding I'd give them between 5 and 10 ml / gal ... :bong:
 
Depending on your medium your growing in, I'd start off nutes right around now or in a few more days... Please start off the nutes at only 1/4 of what is called and wait for a few days and see how the plants respond... Look for nute burn or any other problems steadily increase feed each week... Majority of autos I've grown usually do good on half strength nutes, though there are the exceptions, the dragons LOVE to eat and can handle most that is thrown at them.... They also can be cal/mag whores... Give a your first feed VERY lightly, post pics, you'll get lots of help!
Sending you a big good grow karma cloud your way brother!
 
Most auto strains won't tolerate more than about half the strength recommended for photo period plants. When and how much to feed depends on what's in your soil. If your in a rich mix like Fox Farms Ocean Forest, then no additional fertilization is needed until they are about 30 days old. If you're in a semi soil less mix like Pro Mix, then a light feeding of 2 or 3 ml per gallon could be given now and slowly increased until finally reaching about 10 ml per gallon.

I'll need that karma cloud or some good luck cause I used some crappy soil, had to plant them cause they were sprouted already in jiffy cubes. Ones doing real good but others look slow. I know its the soil after reading soil mixes on here. Got more coming, so will use the right soil next time. Will post some pics
 
what kind of soil are u using?

I used sierra organics planting mix. It was the only good one they had at the hardware store where I live, small town. I'm trying to get some pics up. First auto grow, normaly grow photos.

Thanks muddy. Was wondering what temps they can handle outside, cause where I live its 102 degrees by noon outside rite now. Is that to hot for them?
