First grow! Red gorilla girl XL auto

I use an automatic inline fan and when the temps/RH get to high it turns on to medium speed. 1-10 speed settings. It also has an alarm setting should the temps get above that and then turns on MAX. I also have some fans in the tent that do not vent air but circulate it. normally when they come on the inline will also come on giving the plants a nice mix. If you fan is a turn dial type with no automatic controls, try and find a sweet spot that creates the ideal temps in your tent. Then worry about the RH after. can add in a humidifier into or outside of the tent. You could also get something called an inkbird that monitors temps and RH then turns on the fan. thus turning a non automatic fan into an automatic one. Best Of Luck!

For autos, and being a first grow.. just regular LST in my opinion. Many of which have been outlined already by others. I do not like trellis nets cuz I like to see every bit of the plant and be able to move and inspect. You’re locked in with a scrog. It’s hard enough spotting WPM or pests without one, I can’t imagine with one.

I think 99% of grow related questions can be answered with "It depends...". That's what makes it such a fantastic hobby :) Anyway my 2 cents: Leaves produce energy which generates plant growth so you should let them be. However: Remove a leaf if it will make for a better distribution in your plant. Remove a leaf if it blocks a bud. Remove a leaf if it is yellow or sick. Remove a leaf that is always in the shadow, as it is not contributing to growth. Some say remove a leaf to improve air circulation but I have found that one to be difficult to assess. But it's always worth it to check your seed bank's website for specific cultivation advice, as some strains respond better than others. I have noticed no difference between autos and photos. Good luck!

Unless your room is sealed and you know what your doing, It's not worth it. They plant also needs light energy provided to it in excess of 900PPFD or 20 DLI a day before it really needs it. If you new, you don't need it. get a handle on everything else and worry about co2 when you prefect your growing style. Good Luck!

The first signs of stigma, (white pistons, white hairs) is when your plant is classed as flowering. When your plants start flowering you have to make sure that you're providing higher doses of phosphorus and potassium, these are the main minerals your cannabis plants need to produce buds. Lower the N, nitrogen is more KEY in the growth phase the P-K part is more for flowering. If you need more detailed info please feel free to DM me. The info that comes with the plant arw guidelines and flowering can be delayes in different environments, lightning, nutes, temps and so on. Some autos if stalled might not flower until wk 8 like mine, or migjt start on wk 2, depending on stress and condi, it all plays a part. Happy growing Buddy.

If you have good air circulation, then it doesn't matter where you measure. The sensor should not be directly in the light of the lamp, otherwise it would heat up and falsify the result. Even under the canopy of leaves, the air circulation is poor later and can cause slight deviations.

What nutes are you giving and what soil are you using? keep in mind that every plant is different even if from the same strain, what one likes the other might hate. Also keep in mind that auto's need about half the dosage of a photo-period but to be honest, I would have waited another week to start feeding, more if it's a rich soil. I'm no expert by any means but what I normally like to do is make sure my PH, temps and soil moisture are in check then look at the nutrients. If it's looking like deficiency then try to identify what type of deficiency and supplement. If it's burn (which is what I am seeing) then no nutes for a week or until new growth looks healthy. Don't freak out though cos it isn't terrible looking :) Hope this helps and good luck with your grow!

I like to wait for the third week or 3-5th node like stated below. Have also grown like suggested with keeping it low to the ground and it also worked. try something and see what works best for you. Be gentle and go slow. no one needs a snapped branch. Good Luck!
