How much water are you needing? I got a 5gal and put a spout on it and it works great to store water the night before the watering. You can even put a lid on it! : ) I usually just water same day no worries though : ) I use roughly 7 gals to feed and am looking g at 7gal trash can and putting a spout on that! I’ve seen the 10gal water jugs used also! Capt rocks one of those. I get pretty lazy at times too man! 🤣

I do two 5 gallon buckets at a time. For the bucket plants, and i just hand water those auto and veg plants. Naw really it isnt as bad as im making it out to be. Plus my bathroom is real close to grow room. Im just a lazy old fart, i wanna just sit in my recliner and push a button, and watering and feeding done for all plants!!!! Lmao that'll never happen!!!

Hahaha! When you said “it isn’t as bad as making it out” I instantly thought of my thinking before a water “am i going to carry the bucket or drag the hose! Hahahaha! (Not a fan of either!)😂I really want to put one of those plastic deep sinks in there or next to my shed!

One day I'll try to program some kinda feed program into one of these drip systems i have. But its hard when im running different strains. So i guess its hand watering for me. But i cant wait to setup the autopot system, it has a 12 gallon reservoir. And its gravity fed, so plants take what they want. So just fill res...i guess thats as easy as it gets for my lazy ass!!! And they say stoners are lazy!!!!lol i am lazy when it comes to doing shit i really don't want to!!! But i will work for bud and money!!!lol

Day 40 flower
Gave all my gals some recharge and kelp. They are looking ok. Looks like either calcium or mag toxicity is happening now on ddiesel. These flower gals are fattening up. So not gonna worry about them too much. They're still drinking good.

Day 29 and 22 for bigger autos, about day 6 for small gals. The other punch pie seed i planted came up, but was cover in mycelium, a big white fuzz ball covering seedling. So will get some new dirt in a solo cup and pop the last seed of punch pie. Must be something up with this dirt, bc other seedlings are looking rough too. I'll let them keep going for now.
The bigger autos are doing great. The bigger one, the granite haze, has a few pistils poking out. So i guess its day 1 for flowering for her. The supreme runtz is definitely picking up the pace. They all got some recharge, and the gh got a topdress of 10tbs of veg and bloom 5tbs of each.

So been contemplating whether to go with three tents or 2. Decided for now it will be 2. I'll keep 2x4 in the closet, and just put photos in there. Also im gonna put up 5x5 when i get 6" flange to run ducting to ceiling. The other tent will be taken down. I'll use it as an emergency dry tent. I'll put all autos and vegging photos in the 5x5 tent. When these photo seedlings get out into flower I'll pop 2 more auto seeds and I'll put them in autopots xl with str8 canna coco. Also have canna nutes to use with them. Thats the plan for now. Snapped a few pics.

So far im impressed with these autos from speedrun seeds. All have popped and all are growing pretty decent. If there are any problems they're my fault. But so far they look good. I'll top dress s.runtz in about a week. I think these gals are gonna be big, but I've been wrong before. Just gonna try my best to keep them healthy and thriving.

So was on the fence about running exhaust to the attic or out the window. So gonna try out the window, ordered the ac Infinity window exhaust kit. I'll see how that goes with the smells. Do have a refillable carbon filter, so will be using that.
Will make a post tomorrow about plants. But the 1st 2 autos are really taking off now. They're looking great, the big gal looks like she might needs some calcium. She'll get a lil calmag next watering. They're both starting to drink alot more too, thats great. So everybody gets calmag next watering, except seedlings, they get kelp. The photo seedling arent looking to good. So I'll put domes back on, might've taken them off too early. They are just not growing. And the 3rd punch pie hasnt come up yet, but i think i see it pushing up. Also the 2 autos in the buckets are doing ok, might put domes back on them too, since my humidity is so low and dry! Update tonight with a few pics.

Day 44 flowering
The leaves are staring to get ugly on the GDP, but they've been like that for a minute, might be too much food. Slightly burnt. The diesel is doing same thing, tips burnt. They'll just get water from here on out. They are swelling. Did a slight defoli on the ddiesel. Both plants are stinkin real good. The ddiesel is denser than the GDP. GDP looks like she'll finish first. Her buds are pretty dense, but not like the ddiesel.

Day 33 and 26 or so for 2 bigger autos, and around 12 days or so for bucket autos. These babes are growing pretty good, i took a side by side comparison, and i can see a big difference in 4 days! Gonna have to expedite getting this 5x5 up. Been tucking leaves on big gal, and its been working for the most part. Snapped 2 leaves off. These autos dont have alot of leaves on them. But im happy so far with the growth on these four.

The lil seedlings are hanging on for dear life. All 3 are up and growing. Snapped a few pics

Day 49 flowering
These babes stink. Can smell it as soon as i enter room. Strongest smell so far. I usually have to open closet to smell anything. They're swelling up noticably. Both plants are slightly overfed. But they're loving it, so all they get now is high quality h2o!!! The nugs are hard on both, but ddiesel is about a 9 on the denseness scale. Shes gonna be a beaut! They both are. Gonna ph the water to 6.5, have been just giving them str8 dechlrntd tap water. Maybe they cant asborb potassium bc ph is a lil to high. Might also be experimenting same thing with granite haze auto.
Day 38 and 31 for bigger autos. Day 16 or so for autos in buckets. Not really keeping track of seedlings yet. Once i transplant then I'll start counting veg days for them. They might be slightly overwatered, and stalled. So will let the lil seedlings dry out. The autos in the buckets are picking up the pace. I havent filled reservoir up yet, will do that tonight with plain phd water. The bigger autos are growing nicely. The haze is yellowing up a lil but i dont think dry amendments have broken down yet. Gonna give her some epsom next watering. Shes still heavy when i lift tested. Thats how i tell when to water now when using pots. The supreme runtz is really picking up the pace, tied her down and tucked and pulled some leaves, so she can spread out.
The plan for tomorrow is to finally get this tent up. Got to empty auto tent out, break it down and pack it up. Tonight will make decision on venting tent. Think im a try the window vent. Just dont like idea of window being open, will have to rig up some kinda security bar. Also need to pick up some screening for outlet on vent. This shit is fun, and expensive if u let it get you. I will be doing a lot more diying stuff from here on out. Gotta stop spending, the only thing i wanna spend for is nutes. Snapped a lot of pics for some reason.

So finally got the 5x5 up and running. And i have to say its pretty dam easy to setup these ac Infinity kits, took about 15minutes to get tent up, about 30 mins to get exhaust fans and oscillating fans hooked up, and about 2 hours before my high 9n brownies ass could figure out the 69controller. But finally got it setup, and this fuckin light is huge and bright. The fans are super quiet, the inline fan is quiet up to setting5 after that it gets a lil loud, but not to bad. I have the light dimmed down to 4 outta 10 and temps havent hit 80 yet. It stay around 77, and im venting str8 into the lung room for right now, since its pretty cool outside. I know in the summer things will change.

Autos are loving the space after their first day in the tent. Also decided to check ph and ill be dammed if my ph was like 5.3-5.5, way to low. Recalibrated ph pen and checked again, yup 5.3. so grabbed a cup of tapwater and checked it, it was 6.9-7.1.. let it sit for a couple hours and checked again and it was down to 6.7. so ill just let water sit for a day and check ph before watering from now on. Well I'll just check 5 gallon buckets of water. If they are between 6-7 ph, good to go. But they plants are still thriving, just not uptaking some nutes. Hopefully theyre str8 now. Also filled buckets of smaller autos for the first time, ph 6.7 water.
Dam its a lot of space in this tent. Also zipped my self up inside to check for light leaks, found none, just have to make sure port socks are completely closed. Thats the only spots i saw lights. Tent takes up half the dam room though, small room. So far i like it, and it is high quality and thickest ive had. Snapped some pics of course.

Day 56 for flower
The GDP is just about done, checked trics mostly cloudy with a lil amber. I'll let her go another week. The ddiesel still has 2 weeks or so left. They are looking ok. Gdp looks pretty bad as far as leaves. Looks like im having the same problem with the granite haze auto. Been checking ph and its been 6.5-6.8.
Autos are on day 45 for big granite haze, day 38 for supreme runtz, and for 2 sbch's its day 23 or so. The granite haze is looking pretty rough around the edges. Might be over fed. Not too sure whats happening, looks like lockout, but plant is still growing ok. Just gonna stick with the plain water for next couple of waterings. With a dose of recharge thrown in there. The supreme runtz is looking ok, shes starting to stretch upward now. The other 2 autos are starting to pick up the pace.
The photo seedling are picking up the pace too. Gonna setup the auto pots today. They will be str8 canna coco using canna a and b and pk13/14. Got some cronk nutrients for autos, guess ill give that a try on the runtz, once it needs more nutes, i believe nutes in pot is depleted. So next watering she gets a half to quarter dose of bloom.
Snapped a few pics. Gotta get a better camera.

So went ahead and put some auto seeds in some canna coco. Also went ahead and set auto pot system up. Have the 2 6.6gallon pots filled with str8 coco mixed with some mycos. Put 2 Fatality autos from speedrun seeds in those. Watered them in with a weak mix of canna a&b 5ml/gal. Watered each pot with 125ml before I planted seeds, waited about an hour, then planted. Used turkey baster to moisten dirt over seed. Used the rest of the canna i had and filled 5 gallon fabric with it and mixed in some grow dots. Just gonna use plain water phd to 5.8-6.2 and recharge once a week on that pot. Planted a mystery seed from speedrun in it. All the mystery seeds look pale and small, don't know about these beans. The Fatality seeds were big and dark green. We'll see.

Was thinking about top dressing the supreme runtz auto, but shes pretty green. Dont wanna overfeed like I've done to the others, gotta work on my topdressing skills with these autos. Also gotta find a style and stick with it. But thats what this is an experimental run, never had a space nowhere near this size. But hopefully it'll fill up now. All this moist coco raised the humidity up to perfect vpd range, so thats a plus, but this granite haze is looking rough, but flowers are getting bigger. She just gets plain phd water and recharge once a week. Snapped a few pics, not really much changed from 2 days ago, but auto pots and new round fabric pot.
