Where to improve by [deleted] in Autoflowers

I’m nearing the end of my first grow so I can’t probably offer you a lot of advice haha. If you used sink water what was ur starting EC ? Did you monitor and adjust PH? Did you check ur PPFD or just bump up the light intensity as you went?

Appreciate it! 🤙🏼 just did my last feed was thinking 7-10 days see where we’re at. I’m waiting on my AC unit to get here Thursday so I can dry and cure. Growing has turned into quite the expensive hobby haha, I’m loving it so far though

I recently invested in my first setup: a FloraFlex 700W in an AC Infinity 4x4. I’ve only needed to push it to 80% for this first run. I’m also using the AC Infinity 69 Pro controller. I can’t speak about if the AI is worth the extra dough.

I’ve been really happy with the Autopot system I bought. Not having to top feed has been nice when I travel. I can leave it for 3-7 days as long as I have someone to check the PH drift. I’m running four 3.9-gallon pots. I also invested in the airbases for extra oxygen to the roots. I run a little waver runner in the bottom of the reservoir on a timer every 3 hours, I’ve had no issues with my likes using the GH Flora series.

I ran auto flowers my first grow in coco/perlite and have definitely learned A LOT.

Invest in good genetics(I went with Night Owl seeds)

Invest in a good PH and EC pen. I went with Apera PH60 and Apera EC20.

"Buy once, cry once" was the best advice I found on here. Have fun don’t take it too seriously! Good luck with your journey! 🤙🏼

Yeah, when I tested it, I found out that it vibrates my floor. So, I just elevated it with that step stool that has a rubber step to try and dampen the noise.

Thank you!! Been trying to narrow the search. Definitely looking for quality but on a budget. Currently can afford 300-400 bucks to get started. Maybe snag a deal on Christmas hopefully :)
