From my knowledge is once to the third node you start training with not topping on autos. Some of the autos are just so quick it's crazy. But even with your "special" training it still will be fine. If its smaller than the others. Just prop it up on something to help level out to the canopy of your other girls.There is a "special" scrog method that I wanted to try. But she is going into flower and didnt get the growth needed in veg. Because there was basically no veg.
Yeah shes going to be fine.From my knowledge is once to the third node you start training with not topping on autos. Some of the autos are just so quick it's crazy.

Some auto strains they yield less per cubic meter. So really you just shove more plants in there lol. If you have a separate tent, get some colloidal silver and a auto, and feminize her to make a bunch of auto seeds so you don't have to buy packsThere is a "special" scrog method that I wanted to try.

Shut the front door! This is a thing!?make a bunch of auto seeds so you don't have to buy packs
Lol yes it is a thing. How do you think you get feminized seeds? Feminized seeds come from a female developing female pollen sacks and self pollination. Using colloidal silver you can force the female plant to do this. There are is plenty of information on how to do this specifically.I used special because its different from regular scrog. Nothing real special about it just different.

Only complaint is you have to guide the flap when zipping or it gets snagged. But I dont have much to compare it to either. I have pieces of a spider farmer tent beside me but havent opened waiting for all the pieces to get here.How's the quality of the vivosun tent? I like the vivosuns control hub. Haven't bought any vivosun products, but the visual looks of the growhub setup looks pretty dope.
Spiderfarmer tents are decent. I switched to using marshydro for my smaller tents. The marshydro has been pretty great for function and very sturdy fabric. I have heard good things about gorilla tents too. But haven't purchased a gorilla tent myselfOnly complaint is you have to guide the flap when zipping or it gets snagged.

I think this recirculating drip to drain? I forgot a couple things today so i cant really test it but I was getting it mocked up.What type of hydro will you be doing
A water report isn't always up to current date. As well as there going to be fluctuations from day to day. They test multiple faucets throughout that area the water is being dispensed. So your faucet may fall in the lower range, or the higher range for your area. They will have dates on the water information chart as well, if it's recent, it may be a good starting point, otherwise you can buy a drinking water test kit for less than $15 and adjust accordingly. Running tap is fine as long as you are staying up on the ppm in your reservoir. You can get a very affordable ro system and you can get the hoses and the direction t for the faucet from the washer valve and hook up the ro filtration system. If you have 400 for seeds, I'm guessing you afford a $250 ro setup.I need hydro help! Im starting at my water source. The main factor here is my budget. Ive got a pretty good tab going on this new grow. The 5x5 tent kit, $400 in seeds, and the same in the hydro setup. Plus I have a few more things to get. So I can maybe get a budget friendly ro system that I would connect to the washing machine cold water or if possible to save some money use my tap water.
Heres the info Ive got so far. Turn my tap on let it run for 20-30 seconds 203 ppm. Tested with the blue vivosun meter you can get in a bundle. It says calibrated ready to use but I am getting a calibration liquid. My water report depending on the year says 50-70 mg/l calcium and 3-9 mg/l magnesium. The main question here! Can I add 15-20 mg/l magnesium to get the ratio right and then add my nutrients? I understand that RO is normally the better choice for hydro but could I get away with tap for a few grows?
My bad on the tests. They have gone up since I haven't needed one in 12 years.A water report isn't always up to current date. As well as there going to be fluctuations from day to day.
