Hello fellow ents. I live in Holland, and still need to learn the local language. I've got no friends that can help with this venture, I'm all alone over here.
That said, I found a source of BioBizz Light Mix and bought a 50L bag of it for 1 plant. This will be an outdoor grow, and my first. Bought a 6.5gal/ 25L breathable fabric pot from RQS. Sunniest and longest period that hits my garden is West-facing. Strain is Diesel Autoflower.
I'm in Drenthe, The Netherlands, and should be inundated with how-to-grow-cannabis resources, but I'm at a loss. RQS (Royal Queen Seeds) has been a great resource, and I found Mr. Canuck on YouTube.
My seedling just cracked in the water today. So far, my research tells me Autoflowers don't like being transplanted, they take like half or an 1/8th of nutrients than photoperiodic traditional plants, so directly into soil she'll go.
My question is... nutes. Nutrients. First 2 weeks are just water, but this BioBizz Light Mix (https://www.biobizz.com/producto/lightmix/) is meant to just act as a well draining substrate, lacking nutrients. So I need help here.
NPK 3-1-2 or 4-4-4 or whatever, it's most likely gotta come out of a bottle. I would like to stick with organic over synthetic. Gaia Green is not found near me. Get me going in the vegetative state, I'll keep my ear to the ground come flowering state.
Halp ^_^ Thanks in advance. -LOLseas
For reference, I use Light Mix too, along with Biobizz Grow and Bloom nutrients, following this chart as a guide.
Previously, I grew outdoors for years using raw soil and compost only, which yielded great results and was significantly easier than indoor growing, although perhaps less exciting.
THANKS! I never came across that. So, is that chart specifically for traditional photoperiodic plants, or is it for the autoflowering plants (I didn't see any mention of either in the chart, and autoflowers use much less nutrients than photoperiodic)?
I'd treat autoflowering plants the same way I'd treat photoperiod ones. After all, they're just plants! :) However, it might be a good idea to seek advice from more experienced growers.
