First timer...need some guidance on auto nutrients

Need some help with nutrients for autoflowers. FF Strawberry Fields in 3 gallon pots. 1-UK Cheese, 1-Amnesia Haze, 1-Sour Diesel, 2-Blue Dream. 3 big ones are 17 days old from sprout and the 2 small ones are 10 days. Been using Recharge and that’s it.

The smallest one is sour diesel and i believe t us stunted…out of 7 seeds this one sprouted. The ones others either didnt germinate or died within a day of sprouting. Only the sour diesel strain gave me problems with germinating.

Im looking for help with a dummy proof easy nutrient combo for these girls

Its definitely ‘easy mode’ as a few growers call it. (Jacks 321)

At 17 days? i wouldnt be in the biggest rush to feed. Should be good for about 2 more weeks. Id get a pH and ppm meter ahead of time just to be certain.

The ladies look nice and healthy. They do have a mind of their own. Each plant is a one of a kind, even if use same soil, lights…

…. Even same strain from the same company. Genetics is a fickle fickle subject

Im just pre planning. This is my first ever grow. I was thinking nutrients 4th week. The plan was 3 in the 2x4 tent and 3 outside but I had some issues.

Well the sour diesel just wouldn’t cooperate, i bought 8 seeds and they just wouldn’t germinate or they died right away. I have the one that appears to show a little growth every 2-3 days but is definitely lacking! Bummed, that was the strain i was the most excited about.

Im going to do a little lst tomorrow. I screwed up and didnt wet down the soil before i put the seed in and once i started watering, the soil compacted and now the soil is couple inches lower than i wanted. Im learning :sunglasses::+1:

What do you guys think? Id like to fill this 2x4 tent. Ideally id like to do 4 in the tent if possible. Scrog?

And this is where… everything went horribly wrong :rofl:. Cant overthink the grow. When you do things go off the rails both predictably and unpredictably… im just messing with you but it has a ring of truth.

I think you should go for it! 4 of the best could fill that 2 x 4 up no problem. Might get a tad tight if nothing else. No scrog needed unless your kinda cramped for room. Let those ladies do what they wanna and learn what to expect.

Sidenote… thanks again for the props my family. Just doing my part

Ya i know. I tend to over due everything. I actually just bent all of them over lol. We’ll see how that does and go from there.
Speaking of overdoing stuff lol…is it too late to start a Cherry Ak47 fast photo outdoors in upstate NY?

Nope. As long as you can get her accustomed to the summer sunlight it should be fine. May not fill a 100 gall root ball. But you could pull something decent no doubt

I dont want it to get too big, im thinking 7 gallon and seeing what happens. I want to be able to move it around easily when needed.
Can i start off in FF Strawberry Fields and then transplant to Happy Frog or Ocean Forest? Those two i can get 5 min down the road for $15 bag

Strawberry Fields if Im not mistaken, is the flower formulated soil. Id start in Happy Frog, move to ocean forest at about 4 weeks. Then go to strawberry fields just before flower

Can i layer the final pot? I only plan on transplanting once, i have strawberry fields and happy frog. I can get ocean forest local as well. For example…2/3 HF and bottom 1/3 OF?
