@@eugene5438 nothing wrong with autos for sure I like to grow them here and there for variety. Now that I'm making a lot of hash I prefer photos so I can get them larger and do more aggressive training
I'm a photo grower and I grew an auto for shits and giggles. I planted one in an Earthbox (15-gallon SIP) in living soil ( BuildASoil Way) and it got four foot tall before it started flowering. 14 ounces of really good herb in a 3x3 under a 300-watt Maxsisun.
Fantastic information for a first time grower. Hopefully popping beans before Christmas. Waiting on my Ac Infinity equipment to arrive. Starting with Fast buds 420 autos. Chris your show is one of my favorites. 60 years old and a disabled Marine vet from MN. Thanks
I grew 4 different Autos from 420 fast buds. Blueberry Auto, Amnesia Zkittlez, Strawberry Gorilla, & Purple Lemonade, all fire cultivars. They all grew in an Earth Box with organic living soil
I'm just now going through some Speedrun genetics myself and am loving them so far. Currently a week in on Supreme Runtz in my Blumat drip. Just recently finished a couple Fatality and one Sour Black Cherry Haze
@@RobSWVA nice. Got two strawberry banana autos pretty much ready to harvest, one I think stunted, a Tropicana cookies from Growers Choice and an LSD-25 about 10 days old from fast buds
@SmoochXO_420Gaming that LSD is pretty heavy with phenotypes from my experience, But there's an all big nugs one in there that I've found before. Only ones from them I've truly liked are the gorilla crosses
Awesome auto specific suggestions in this one! I asked a well known crop steering company how to steer auto's and their response in a live podcast was, "Why auto's?". I'd accidentally stumped the best and brightest by asking a question about auto's. Auto crop steering is an emerging practice with little industry support but fortunately prodigies like Dave Baker are raising the bar . It was nice to see ACI include auto's in their recent AI controller release. Hopefully someday 'auto crop steering' and 'photo crop steering' will get equal support, until then these discussions are the best preview of tomorrow.
This was a great interview! I really learned a lot of what I’ve been doing wrong from this episode. I definitely need to feed my girls more, makes a lot of sense that autos would use more feed than your typical photo.
Just finishing my first ever grow. Grew some autos, went pretty decent, quite enjoy the challenge of hitting the run just right. Learnt so much, next run loading 😁
check Coco If you havent already. In soil i would go minimum 5 gallons, also many people give autos too much light and dont notice it, DLI can get pretty high. LST is Important with autoflowers. Light scedule 20/4 Worked best for me with most strains. Have fun growing Brother 🎉
@konstantintzagas9462 Thanks friend. Great advice. Im in coco perlite. I also did give too much light at one point trying to push them. Im just keen to get those first few weeks down. First run i did the classic mistake of watering seedling too often. But all in all i got some awesome bud and learnt a lot!
Excellent episode! I'm growing Mephisto autos in coco in fabric pots, still trying to get a perfect grow. Every plant seems to have issues sooner or later. Buds turn out great, but plants looks sick constantly. Been experimenting with GH trio, calmag, silica....grow dots on others...idk my tent temps are always between 65 and 75 max, humidity 50%. Maybe giving too much water at one time and causing roots to not get enough oxygen. Always let em dry out a couple days but once the problems start they never go away. Love the hobby! Mephisto has some amazing strains!
I agree with him about lighting 34:00 in. I give my plants about the same. The trick is to blast it with light early on so it hardens off. Sprouted seedlings go from 400ppfd to 600 to 800 pretty quickly. All the way to 1300 par. I do grow some autos but mostly photoperiods and it's the same thing. My issue with autos is I try to stress them so they flower early and I get a actual 60-70 day harvest but it never happens. They get way too big and start taking up too much space. They're unpredictable too. Edit: the more your able to harden off a plant in veg, in any capacity, the less likely it'll herm in flower. So that's another benefit
And ya, my plants outside I just cut down. Also live in MA. Was growing ghost peppers. Its been 70 all month up until the last week or so. Same warmth last month too. Honestly, the weather here is all sorts of messed up lol. More than its been in the past. For example, it's supposed to snow in a day or so LOL. The season needs to pick a lane.
I love growing auto because I can keep them small I have had at least one auto going in my tent growing for the last 3 years I start one 3 weeks before I harvest the one at bat but I always have one on deck
100% agree with the use of Far-Red.. I supplement my grow in Flower with an Electric Sky V3 @ Full power and can say that yields have 100% doubled since utilizing the Far-Red light spectrum.. Scrog game has to be on and a taller tent 100% necessary! 😆
My Xmas present i got the new spider farmer tent set up im so excited and it was great as it was all on sale Love your channel bro ive learned so much and continue Great video 🪴🔥💨🤙
Actually had an issue with fungus gnats on my last grow and I used maybe an inch of play sand that I had left over from my kids sandbox on the top of my soil and they were gone within 24 hours. My soil is all organic I won't say what company I used that had the fungus nuts in it but I used about 40% of their dirt, 30% coco core, 20% biochore, and 10% Peet/sphagnum moss...
Good thinking -- if you want to reuse the medium without mixing with sand you can try using pea gravel and a soil sifter to separate them after harvest.
Good information als all the time ❤ I want to start with Auto next run . So I got Skunk auto and I will be happy if someone can share his experience with this one 😊 best regards MGM
Pretty cool to here speedrun seeds as the original auto reg stock is from me I gave a bunch to a buddy in Colorado he and 2 others created businesses super pumped for them it's a crazy thing but I love it.
Cronk line is a little light on the nitrogen I've noticed. Plants get a little yellow pretty early at the end of flower, so im guessing not enough in the veg cycle. I've had great yielding autos with it tho. Is Ben ever gonna do he full auto line P.s. you should have daz on for a breeding episode on autos
Autos are tougher than photos. If you can pull of a auto grow like that ,, imagine what you can do with photos. West Kentucky ready to show up and show out... 💚🔥💪
I have two Banana Split autos drying now. They're from Ethos Genetics Tropical Thunder Multipack. Probably the fattest buds of any kind I've grown. And frosty. Also, a couple PPD autos from Humboldt. Big fat purple goodness there, too. I'm not all auto, Kong's Krush from Green House is vegging. It's all good.
autos in closet in winter and photos outside in summer this year both outside. growing first autos with grow dots not impressive runtz f1 both very small oh well next ones hopefully better or its really not worth money spent on equipment, will just use light etc. for spring vegetable seed starting.Trying grape ape and fat banana autos. runts may give a few joints not much there look good though.Topped runtz better than the untopped way more colas.
i have an off brand light i add with my sf2000PRO, which has a small amount of IR red and UV2, i also noticed a stretch/more limbs whilst in veg. One thing i also noticed is that the plants will produce defensive trichomes during veg, these arnt "active" but ive noticed it allows me to notice the terpes before ive even hit flower! not sure if these terpes form in different ratios in flower other than veg with UV+IR stress then what they would without the IR + UV but maybe this can be used to identify certain phenos before even going in flower!... ALSO the stacking and length of the triches seem like 1.5/2x than without the IR + UV
Chris talk to some hash makers specifically water hash. I dont think yall have done much of that and as far as i can tell its still a pretty adolescent part of the herb
I feel in love with autos don’t tell p I pop one with my photos and leave them in the veg tent don’t change anything just let them do there thing 5 gal living soil
Dave Baker? Sr, or Jr.? Flooring company Dave Baker? It's Chris from Springfield, Amherst, Chicopee. Area. It's been 10 yrs or so since I've seen you. Hope all is well if it is you bud. Otherwise great show

Good episode. I also grow giant autos. There's something addicting about growing autos
I DONT EVEN GROW AUTOS , BUT I AM HERE TO SHOW LOVE 🔥🙏
You hit the nail on the head with the far red stretching them.
Absolute GOLD of an episode! Took down lots of notes. Love growing Autos, very helpful info. ❤ Thank you both ❤
Great interview. I had the pleasure of meeting Dave a few weeks ago at the harvest cup. Great guy!
I only grow autos and found very tall ceramic pots the best for maxing out the plant. Great innovation from this guy. Pushing the envelope. Respect.
Best episode yet learned a lot

Support small, proper breeders, guys!
@@TheFreakonhell they definitely aren't low quality but good try
Quick note for all.
I do not have a lisp lol. I was sick with a cold and had halls in my mouth for the whole episode. Didn’t want to start coughing.

@ my Gorilla Punch Just popped as well as my Lemon Cherry Cookies 💪🏾
Good episode 👍 I live in Massachusetts it's good to see we have alot of home growers
Thinking out of the box ❤
This is the information I want.Thank you.
Thanks Chris, I appreciate the knowledge you give to home growers like me. Makes a huge difference.
Great content, great channel👍🏾💯
being from MA this is super duper excieting to watch. thanks for the content Mr.G

Iv been using sugaree for 10 plus years, it’s basically grape juice. Works great for adding lots of trichlomes.
Great episode!

Brother Mendel Genetics rock!
Always interested in learning new tips and techniques for autoflowers. Thx MGI
I know exactly how he feels - that 1st grow!! I just started my 4th year growing and just love it. So fun and challenging. A little like golf! 👌🏻😉

Love your channel bro ive learned so much and continue
Great video 🪴🔥💨🤙
Great content
💚💚💚 for feeding your autos properly 👍
A lot of that is not for me, but still, always good to see your Garden Talks.
this guys grows a lot like i do with the rock wool and coco and 2 tents. I get fantastic results!
Actually had an issue with fungus gnats on my last grow and I used maybe an inch of play sand that I had left over from my kids sandbox on the top of my soil and they were gone within 24 hours.

I still remember to this day the head grower, when he was there called photoperiod plants autoflowers. 😭 had to bite the tongue real hard on that one.
Pretty cool to here speedrun seeds as the original auto reg stock is from me I gave a bunch to a buddy in Colorado he and 2 others created businesses super pumped for them it's a crazy thing but I love it.
you have anymore auto regs?
Auto's Baybah!
Cronk line is a little light on the nitrogen I've noticed. Plants get a little yellow pretty early at the end of flower, so im guessing not enough in the veg cycle. I've had great yielding autos with it tho. Is Ben ever gonna do he full auto line

When he talked about adjusting the feed to the ppm/EC he wanted, do you just up the amount of base nutrients for that or up everything?
I just happened to be paying attention at 47:16, and I am quite sure this guest meant to say “auto” rather than “photo”.
You are correct
Hi, does your AC-Infinity discount work on Amazon Europe?
Just got a Fastbuds 10 pack of BPP. Stoked for this!!🔥
Sorry for your loss Dave 🙏
Good information very similar to my style I cant remember if he use C02 it can increase density of bud mine are like a rock wen dry
I use tmb bottles.
How would I get my hands on some of your seeds all I’ve grown is auto I really messed up my first run and got 3 ozs off 1
Love chanel!!
He has more patient than me as soon as it's dried I'm smoking it.
Thanks man

I've had an organic grow going but I'm starting to understand you can't have 'big' autos if you're not pumping them full of nutes.
@mr.growth do you know what light Dave is running as his Infared light?
I’d love to be a guest and share what I can about autos and photoperiod genetics
I grow plenty of Autos that keep up with my photos. Of course Genetics
I started with autos and had good success early and now growing regs and fems in the Vgrows and it's a different style for sure...

My auto’s sometimes won’t switch to flowering. I have to switch the time to 12 hours.

It is Rockwood but, extremely high EC for young plants. Dang. Might try it. Never even considered before.
Rolled up with coffee in hand
Running terp sneeze from speedrun now 1st auto
Great Interview
I have the fungus gnats too
I try sand on top now
he's only using far red? or full spectrum + far red?
💯
i would like to know what his co2 meter reads so i can test mine to his and see what i can do to make my autos over 1 pound
Don’t have one.
Autopotamus said he run his at the same ec
Yes Lynne and I grow similar.
Shout out to somehighguy. I hope he is doing okay.
You know it
How bad of a screw up is it to start autos in a small pot?
