Theres even a few decent pic’s.

I dunno…
I wonder sometimes if folks who are used to growing photos, try to treat autos in a similar manner, and create their own issues. I know when I went indoors from outdoors I tried to transfer some points from outdoors that are completely different, created my own issues.
I dunno… just wondering.

I only ran autos one time. It was new to me, never heard of autos until I joined ilgm. Treated like photos. Big issues with the soil pH and PPMs most of the grow. Really hot bag of FF happy frog. FF entire line of nutrients were used. Like 13 bottles or something. 
GG Autos came out to around 13 oz

It can happen…
I tried to apply my expectations from outdoors to indoors and now I can’t close my tent. concerned about proper airflow. Hygrometer says I’m ok for now, if need be I’ll use a box fan to push air in the lower front of the tent.

Rez and runoff numbers seem to be holding steady, so now back to accommodating these tall girls. Gonna try to get the fan and filter outta there today, and raise the light up another 7 or 8 inches or so. Sheeze… 9 plants what was I think’n… 
Yesterday I installed two 20amp circuits, mounted a couple of two gang boxes in the room. Didn’t work out just like I wanted, but it’ll work. (I ran outta Romex.) I’m using line conditioners to help protect my equipment and may have to lengthen the cords, but maybe not.
They’re hungry and the new fertigation schedule is going through the water, so I brought in another RO storage barrel. It’s actually the original nute res, I just set the lid from the RO barrel on the top, it has the float valve for the RO supply mounted to the lid anyway. I’ll use the ACI pump which couldn’t push out the air lock for feeding to transfer the RO to the res. The main RO tank sits on top of the res and just gravity feeds.
If it doesn’t rain today, I’ll be put’n four chickens on the smoker. 
I love a smoker, set it up and walk away till it’s done. For these chickens about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, depending on size and temps.
Sooo thats how my weekends going…
