My First Closet Grow (CFL / AutoFlowering Strains)...
Hey,
So the strains I have in there are auto-flowers (60-70 days from seed to bud). So, the short life span, I did a bit of research and it seems a 3 litre pot is enough for the life span of these plants. So I decided against transplanting halfway through, and opted for the bigger pots to start with.
This can cause issues.. its best to keep a plant in a pot just enough for the roots and transplant as it needs a bigger pot - however I overlooked this when I started the grow, and they're in the biggest pots they can be now anyway.
Another issue with my way is that it will be easy to drown them in such big pots.. which is why i am VERY careful when watering... i water only when soil is dry and not soggy all the way through. This is only my first run so I guess there are lots of lessons to be learned.. lets just see how they pan out in the pots they're in now.. if half way through I encounter problems I'll act on them fast and try to resolve them. Hopefully though I won't have any issues with the pots they're in.
Any thoughts, opinions, advice?
