Nice to see you gearing up for the outdoors mate.
Iv got a lovely spot my self, got the spot 'cooking' at the moment. I have just started in 1L pots:
Purple Trainwreck
Dark Star
Green Crack
Auto Blue Mazar
Auto Durban Poison
Subbed.
Sweet hopefully you can help me along the way! Are you going to do a journal on yours? sounds like a good line up bro. I'm just testing out my spot with a few this year then probably try a few more next year

Do not feed them anything until they show signs of needing it go with a neutral grow medium like sunshine mix or pro mix they are just peat moss with perlite and vermiculite. Don't worry to much about grow solution with autos. And the first few feeding a at eighth to a quater strength plant directly into the container you plan on growing in autos will lose some weight if transplanted IMO I hope some of this helps. I go with advance nutrients myself I love there TEA. When I said grow solution I ment vegging phase on autos most of them go into bud so fast that vegging solution is not really needed. But still one feed will still be needed but not much more than that. Use 40 litre grow bags that should allow you five days between watering. I know that seems like alot of soil 40 litre but these super autos need to grow huge root balls to achieve maximum weight and I a perfect grow should never go dry that is not good from my experience a thirsty big budding plant can go four days then needs a healthy drink
thanks for the info bro! im going with bio bizz nutes as i'm already familiar with them. Although i do plan on changing to AN nutes in the near future
just need to use up what i have. The reason i went with 18l this time is because i didn't want the plants to get too big. was hoping for a metre or just over? do you think i will acheive this in 18l pots?
Hey man its a good choice to stay with light mix cause this strain is a hardcore sativa and tends to finish at 120+. mine were finished between 130-150days if i remember right and if u stay with a lightly fertilized mix they are forced to push their bloom phase wich is necessary to finish those plants in colder climate
i would also dig some holes for the airpots cause they dry out fast and u create a barrier against some slugs and other predators of canna
good luck!
Sweet thanks for the tips bro. Yeh i was hoping to get them to late august which falls around the 130 mark. On day 14 today and this morning there was a ground frost. Really need this weather to take a turn!
