Hello good buds,this is going to be my first attempt at a grow diary on AFN so if there's anything you want to know or any advice on the strain i'm growing let me know!
I've done a few autos before these,mostly Sweet Seeds strains (Black Jack,Fast Bud,S.A.D,) and Easy Ryder by Joint Doctor (there is a pic of my current Easy Ryder on my post in the introductions section).As you can tell by the title of this grow diary i will be growing Sweet Seeds Cream Mandarine Autos.

Ok,here's my set-up;
1m x 1m x 1.60m tent (Width/depth/height)
50watt Lightwave T5 flouro until roots show from bottom of peat pellets
400watt hps (Sunmaster dual spectrum bulb) for remainder of grow :drool:
15litre round pots
Canna Professional soil
4inch extractor fan & carbon filter
6inch oscillating fan for air movement
I germinate the seeds by soaking them in a glass of tap water for about 18 hours then pop them into peat pellets(soaked in ph 6.5 water).They go into my little seedling tent,in a propagator,lid on,vents totally closed,with a heat pad underneath until they pop their lovely little heads up from the soil,which is where i remove the lid,as below

These popped at about 10am this morning
So i'll water these when necessary with just water for a few days as the pellets have a small amount of feed in them,then i'll use a bit of feed....
2mls/ltr Vitalink Plant Start
2mls/ltr Hygrozyme(a root conditioner)
1 drop/ltr Superthrive
I have found this combination gives the little ladies a great start,with roots showing from the bottom of the pellets within 4-6 days usually. As soon as i see any sign of roots i put them into 15l pots pre-soaked a couple of days beforehand with the same feed as above,with the addition of one more additive
1ml/ltr Plagron Roots
This stuff,i have found,gives EXPLOSIVE root grow which is the key to maximising your ladies,no?!?!
Ok i think that's a pretty good start but if i've missed anything let me know,growing Mary Jane is a fantastic,natural thing to do and i love it!!
I'll give more info on my nutes as i go,by using 15 litre pots i've found that i don't need to water for at least 2 weeks,i just trickle a bit of feed around them for the first few days and then they go themselves! Also,my first Autos were done in 7.5 litre pots,and yielded 1-1 1/2 oz,but by increasing pot size i've doubled the yield to 2 1/2-3 oz oh yeah! (kiss of death or what!!!)
Keep It Green buds :smokebuds:
Ps- they'll be on an 18/6 light cycle
