Ok so I have grown cannabis a few years ago but never autoflowers. So I just want to post my set up I am a ommp grower.

(X12) 5 gallon dwc buckets with 2 pop can size air stones in each
(X2) bad boy t5 4ft 8bulb with grow lights in now
Current solution nutrient
(X25) 8" mesh net pots fits 5 gal bucket
Mylar
(X98) 1.5 rockwool cubes
Grow room is 5'x10' going to try 12 plants a time with the next run about 50 days behind

My tap water is testing 50 to 60ppm
I'm going to start the seeds in my tap water for 24 hours then I will place them on a plate with papper towels. When I start seeing the root I will place 12 seeds in the 1.5" rockwool and place them in the dome with the heating mate on 80 degrees and one of my t5s above it. when the leafs pop out I will drop my t5 right on top of the dome ( about 6" away from top of dome) when the roots start popping out of the rock wool I will place all 12 into there own 2 inch mesh net pots in the dwc. After they get a nice roots coming off of them I will place all into there own 5 gallon buckets then I will trun on both my t5 lights after about week 6 I will swich to bloom t5 lights and bloom nuts at about week 9 I will start flushing the autos.

PLEASE ANYTHING WOULD HELP see me as your test bunny

I will be growing 12 thing different and will have photos and videos up

will be starting in about a week maybe two just waiting on some stuff

I will be posting updates just waiting for some stuff in the mail any advice tho? I don't know everything but would love to learn more what's the best high yeild autoflower? How much do you thing I will harvest with 12 think differnt seeds with this set up? And should I just get a 1000watt for flowering to or will it make that much of a diff?
 
And has anyone used current solutions befor in a dwc set up?
 
Only a beginner myself man so probably no help really.

See the guys on here with big yielding thinkdiff and the mazar and with your set up 4-5 ounce per plant maybe? Others will know more.

My first grow was in soil and was just a plant and see what happens, can have a look at my SIG if you like, you won't learn anything other than they are a tough plant that pretty much sorts its self :)

Just gonna start my 2nd grow diary now. :stylez rasta smoke:

atb.

Nice to meet you man. Your setup is legit lol you will harvest a ton with Think Different. Especially with DWC.. If you keep em healthy they'll reward u with probably a quarter pound for each plant = almost 50 ounces haha. If u upgrade your lighting to two 1000k you may pull a half pound each plant = 100 oz lol soooo much weed.

Have fun!!
 
so if I got 2 1000watt lights I would almost double my yield? I have a 5x10 foot room for my autos you think that's big enough?
 
How many watts on your T5`s?? If you're running 800 watts of t5 and you upgrade to 2000 watts of HID then yeah your yield will about double more or less. It depends on your feeding schedule and quality of nutrients too. But the HID lights will penetrate much deeper into llants that the low branches will fatten up nicely. Remember tho your operating costs will go up too.
 
im running 3 432watt t5s witch is about 120,000 lumens and about how much more will my bill be a month running 2 1000 watts 20/4 hour? probley a whole lot lol
