Bubba Kush auto. My second attempt. Grown in FF OF and used Miracle Grow nutes. Going to get some close ups of the buds tomorrow when I have time. But it's the end of the road and three days of darkness after lights out.
So how are you people getting such huge yields?
I need to up my yields big time.
Whats your secret?

I looked at the girl today with the USB and it's mostly still clear with a few amber trics. Getting noticeably fatter though so I'll let it go another week. Still transpiring actively.
What use to be a really smelly citisy smell has now devolved to a slight foam carpet padding smell. Don't know it that's good or not......

How do you like the Fox farm soil I've been debating on switching back to that soil.Bubba Kush auto. My second attempt. Grown in FF OF and used Miracle Grow nutes. Going to get some close ups of the buds tomorrow when I have time. But it's the end of the road and three days of darkness after lights out.

Quite a bit of difference between the Ocean Forrest and Happy Frog, OF being hotter. If you add some limestone I've found that gets negated. Worked good for this auto. Started needing nutes at about 6 weeks. I waited till 8 and it suffered. I have one more pot filled with it for the next auto and that will be all though.
I have half a bag of the Happy Frog for the autos after that. For my photos I'm using ProMix Bx.
So you prefer the happy frog for auto flowers?

Not really. It's good soil but one should stick with one kind I feel. The Pro Mix has hardly no nutes so you start with a feeding regime right off the bat. I'm using up the FF stuff with the autos as they are more demanding.. I always had pH issues with it at the end with photos but that is not the soils fault.
This time absolutely no pH issues. I added a cup of DS limestone to the 3 gallons. And watered with 50/50 well/rain so not much extra calcium was needed.

Genetics is a big part of it. My auto yields varied from six ounces (Gelato) to shy of a pound (Gorilla Glue).
I use ProMix HP in 3 gallon fabric bags, plant elevators in saucers.
Mega Crop one part for nutrients and I wait until the pot is almost dry/feels light before giving water/food again.
I feed with every watering.
To judge when to increase food I watch the bottom leaves, when they start to yellow I increase amounts by .5g/4L.
The last two weeks of flower I was 1g/4L over their recommendations.
So, proper watering, good ventilation and light height.
BTW > my well water has a ppm of ~500 and the ph is 7.5
I do not adjust ph, the ProMix HP is buffered and Mega Crop one part is chelated (their term for buffered).
I use MH/HPS so no Cal Mag needed, between my well water and the MC I have found I don't need more.
Cheers
I'm just trying to decide if I should go back to Fox farm soil or stick with miracle grow soil which I think sucked big time fr me this year. I felt like I had better luck the last time I used Fox farm. With my next grow I Might try Fox farm happy frog and see what happends.
