Perfekt start for autoflowers

Hello,
I bought some short stuff seeds :

-Russian Rocket Fuel
-Auto Assassins
-Onyx

My plan is to give them a 2 week veg time under cfl and then plant them outdoor. I want to get the most of these 2 weeks vegi ! So i bought some Mykos & xtreme gardening azos ! I heard that autoflowers are very sensitive to nutrition burn, so i want to plant them in seedling starter soil. I plan to mix the mykos&azos under the seedling soil an put them in 1l pots.

So what do you think, is this combination of mykos&azos a good start for autoflowers ?

:chin:

i think that looks like good soil, you can water less if your worried about burning them

Mhh. Or maybe the first 1/2 of the pot with seedling starter mix and the other 1/2 with light mix soil ? And mykos&azos mixed in both. And how to use the azos best ? Starting in rapid rooters and then roll the rooter in azos before transplanting, or start in soil and mix the azos under the soil ?
I just want to have perfekt conditions :)

When you say light mix, are you talking from biobizz?

If you can afford them bigger pots to start them in, it wouldn't hurt :)

2 litre tallpots, or 4 litre square are good options if you want to get them too a decent size.

Yeah, i mean light mix by biobizz :) thats the point with the pot size. I cant go too big, cause i want to plant them outdoor and transport them in travel bags. And the cabinet for the veg time is very smal ( 60 cm side lenght ), and i have around 28 autos.
Are maybe 1l selfmade rocket-pots or airpots the answer ?

Thx for your help and btw : sorry for my bad english :)

Have you bought the 1L pots yet?

If you are willing to make some, 2litre pop/soda bottles are nice :)

I've never had any problem using straight light mix.

All mix is too hot and can stunt them in my experience, but light mix is my no1 choice to start AF's in

Yeah got them from my last grow. soda botles are too high... Im limited by the travel bags ! Ok thats sounds good to me using just lightmix from start. And is it worthwhile to build rocketpots in the same size like the 1L pots ?
And i think i will do it like xtreme gardening says to water the plants with azos mixed in the water. And mykos mixed under the soil....
My feeding plan is to give them seaweed extract and supervit after week 1 ! I also want to water with oxygenated water ( treated 24hrs with an airstone ).
And what do you think about mixing the mykos 1 week before inserting the seeds under the soil, so they have 1 week to "activate" !?

I had never tried tried any of the products you mention,

But i just looked them up and they all sound good.

Normally I stay away from anything other than plain water until sex.

Maybe do some trials within your population, with the different products, it could be helpful for others

I tried supervit on very young plants and they loved it. Seaweed has a very low npk but many minerals and is good for the roots and mykos. The only thing that could go wrong is azos, i didnt use it before but read good things...

Just remember that they don't need anything too strong,

If you are worried, try it on a few, and you will know for the future.

The only way to know is to try. :)

yes mate, by the time they are sexed/ready to transplant, allmix is perfect.

Just too hot to start them in, but considering light mix is cheaper to buy it works out ok :)
