Hello,
Just getting prep ready for 3rd year of outdoor growing. I was told recently that auto flowers do not need the regular strength nutrient that feminized plants would use.
Last year I grew auto flowers and feed them as I would have for regular feminized plants.
Just looking for input about the strength mix for auto flower plants
Thanks,

I use the same strength as for photo period for my autos they’ve never suffered from it autos tend to be smaller but obviously grow quicker so I would think they need the same amount because they’re going to use it quicker just like anything alive plants have a metabolic process quicker growth usually means a quicker metabolism and a need for nutrients and water sooner

Thanks. Yeah, i was surprised to hear this guy tell me about lowering / diluting the nutrient(s). I think I will just gat at it as I did last year.

The only thing I really do different for autos is I dont give my autos veg nutrients I just start giving them the nutrients for flowering once they start developing pistols they usually have enough nutrients in the soil for veg so feeding before flowering starts just feels unnecessary to me
