New Grower Please help Newbie with 20 gallon smart pot no till

[riviera123]

Hello I’m new on 3rd grow all were photo period ,here is a picture of my setup pic the tiny plants (photo ak48 ) in no till soil cooked the plants Organic no till soil was Too hot After transplant .Soil is over a year old but i added some compost which basically wrecked the ship.
I really understand all the mistakes i made but i see there is plenty more blundrers and mishaps to make in this hobby.
So I’d like to move on here and try some auto flowers in my no till 20 gallon smart pot 400 w hps 2.9by 2.9 foot grow tent (only have one tent)
So what would you do if you were chained to this setup i have now and wanting to do auto flower route ? Why am i chained ? Because i have a really bad back now and i want a real easy setup and i dont want to move the 20 Gallon no till i just started.

I basically need guidance here i need to order seeds first i like nirvana seeds .
What Fem auto flower would you choose with my setup ?
How many auto seeds do i plant in a 20 gallon pot ?
Would ak48 or white widow auto from Nirvana be good candidates?
I like high thc and
Easy plant to grow thank you

Hello, riviera! I would certainly do up some RQ gear! AK48 and WW sound like real winners for sure. You can do quite a few up in a 20 gallon pot. I would start with 4-6, but you dont want to over crowd them and deprive any from your light source. I would go with more seeds in smaller pots, but if that option isnt available, rock your setup! I know several growers that have had great success with several plants in one pot!
What are you using for a light source?

I’m using 400 watt hps/ mH bulbs thanks for your response . I can only seem to run the MH at 50 % with this tent as heat was going over 80 also the light has to be so far away to keep the temps down.
Of course if I do autos I intend to use the 400 hps

I am trying first aid and CPR with the two little plants. I took the two plants ak 48 fem Nirvana out of no till . I stuck rooter in a mini hempy buckets. See pics there is very littl roots outside of the plug as they were all burned up in no till soil that was too hot apparently. Katrina is the one with leaves and no roots so it must be a strong plant surviving with whatever it could in the little rapid rooter sponge with hardly any roots sticking out. The other plant (Maria) has no top leaves . Will see how it goes I fed the chicks with light dose of liquid karma, roots organic root excelerator and botanicare CNS all mixed and ph the water. I’m watering them 2 to 3 times a Day very gently with a shot glass making sure i water directly over the stem so it reaches the base of the plant till hopefully new roots hit the bottom resivor. I’m a little Leary about planting any seeds in the no till for awhile , I’m going to let it develop with the cover crop under barley straw also put in 100 European nightcrawlers I got from Petsmart. Thier redworms are not red wigglers they are the Euros. Take care everyone
