This was my first time doing autos as well as going with a reputable bean company. I did some things with these autos that id normally do on photos, and experimented a little differently than I normally would.
Outcome thus far is where i wanted it in regards to: No real deficiencies, excellent grow environment, topping of autos in relation to stress and stunting.
I started 5 beans 10 months ago (i guess that's long for autos). They are now in different stages of growth due to topping at different times. I also had one seedling that "horseshoed", i babied it and think shell be a great producer.
The first picture i posted in original post is the first to ripen, number 2 should be tomorrow. The rest are on easy street until they get where they need to be.
For this grow i used the following nutrients, at different levels, for different stages: Soil- i went with equal parts FFHF and
FFOF. Started the beans in Qplugs and placed in humidity dome. After 4 sprouts, i transplanted to 3 gallon Rain Science bags (also where i noticed the horseshoe sprout.. i split the Qplug and "untied" the sprout so she could take off), finally all 5 transplanted.
Nutrients: I used the FF trio,
Fish Sh!t and
CalMag. I also run a Banana Tea every other watering, during flower.
Grow Environment: 60"x60"x80" A/C Infinity tent,
Vivosun VS3000 light, A/C Infinity Cloudforge humidifier, Fans above and below canopy for circulation. 6 inch exhaust set on 2 24/7 with adjustments made for humidity and temp control. This tent is inside a 20'x20' room that is controlled by Air Conditioning and Dehumidifier (really helps take stress off tent components and gets your numbers where they need to be, quicker)
Here are a few pictures of the run, ill answer any questions about my routine. also, I don't mind criticism lol.
