so i will be doing my first legit auto grow and i have done a lot of reading/studying. I have everything basically covered except my nutrients. When i go to my local hydro shop (ill be using soil though) should i skip the veg nutrients since the plant skips the veg state and goes straight to flower? Also would a sugar additive be good to buy? What nutes should i get (ex: veg, bloom, etc..) Thank guys:peace:
 
I would try to find a solid nute trio... I use Advanced nutrients grow micro and bloom. ( check out my link in sig for usage and results) there are many others that are top of the line as well such as General organics.... and maybe you should research the life of an auto I fpund some interesting info that helped me understand it alot more when I started. I think the mod named muddy has some out there and there very helpful. Autos do not skip a veg period at all . In fact they go into a period between pure veg and flower that is really considered both. You will notice a tremendous amount of verticle growth even after flowering begins...

And for sugar I use un sulpered grandmas molasses and it worked fine. I used 1tsp/gal some use more and a few use less according to how often you dose with it
 
im assuming your planning on a simple organic grow..?Id look into the earth juice line of things to start with personally.and maybe a few other simple components to learn how to make teas too.fishies 5-1-1- or similar,kelp liquid,cow,mushie composts are cheap and great as well as EWC too. but compost,fish,molasses, and a wettable powder like great white for example or bio vam AG which i like a lot. and that will give you veg and some blooming too for your teas.also you can get some big bloom which is nice to have imo too. and other than a basic feeding line them tea will help you out later on but for now check out the earth juice line i hear good things and maybe honey ES too.i like that stuff.but thats my opinion man hope that helps ya but for organic bottled nutes,Id ask around a lil more since there are only a few decently put together organic lines of nutes.but thats where Id start man.:Sharing One:


and to answer your question about veg is yes,you'll want to feed for veg especially for some autos(strain depending ofcourse but very very relevant) that'll veg a lil longer.but mostly within organics you can skip them ONCE your soil is worked well but for not you work it with them nutes bro. so imho i say go for it man,
 
Im soory bro listen to eyes on the nutes I failed to notice this thread was in organic growing.
 
If you want an easy high quality organic grow, I would recommend using half potting soil and half coco coir. Make sure it is potting soil and not top soil, garden soil or compost. Potting soil is light and airy, while the others are dense. The more air to those roots the better. Then use Jobe's organic rose and flower 3-5-3 or maybe Dr Earth rose and flower 5-7-2. They have all the primary, secondary, and micro nutrients. They also have beneficial microbes in them already. Just follow the instructions on the bag and let them do their thing. The Jobe's rose and flower is probable my favorite organic fertilizer. It does well on every plant I have tried, not just cannabis. It also makes excellent bubble teas with a little black-strap. Earth Juice grow and bloom liquid does work very well too.
