Any help is appreciated. My hybrid auto flowers are doing good. I’ve been growing with 18/6 cycle and intensity between 1500 at center and 800-1000 on the sides. They just finished 7 weeks and I’ve trimmed them. The focus is on tops.
For the next 4 weeks or until ready to harvest do I need to gradually increase light intensity during flowering?
Also I’ve read many sources that say lighting cycle does not need to be changed on autos. I currently have them at 18/6. Any thoughts? Does changing it to say 12/12 do anything at this point ? Or just leave it at 18/6.
18/6 is fine, no need to go 12/12 with autos.
But it only takes a par reading of about 800 to make good nugs. Anything over 1000 is overkill unless you feeding extra strength nutes and running co2 with a perfect environment …
@HMGRWN@Nicky anyone Not check the tent grow. Everyday. I am down there fussing over everything. I have defolatioted the big girls a lot brought the LED LIght closer now we will see,even when i try not to check i am making my way downstairs again
But co2 is a waist of money unless everything is absolutely dialed in and cranked up. If ya get the bags free then why not, bit I wouldn’t spend any money on co2.
I use co2 bag because I don’t ventilate, my bushy girls hyperoxygenate closet so add co2, but if you are venting fresh air in you got all the co2 you need. Bags don’t put out great amounts but I believe it helps my grow.
