I have zkittlez auto seeds arriving today from automatically delicious. I win these on the DGC giveaway. Will be my first attempt at auto flowers. I run two flowering tents and have a veg/clone/mom space outside of my tents with lights on 18/6. I plan to run one auto at time in my veg space should I have any concerns about doing this. Also does anybody have any experience with this specific auto or know what to expect as far as structure and size

if it happens to be from fastbuds I found this on it from Feb 2023: https://2fast4buds.com/news/zkittlez-auto-cannabis-strain-week-by-week-guide
Hope it helps.3 -
Thanks @zoomycat they are from automatically delicious but that is still a very helpful guide since I have no autoflower experience.

@CarKnee My biggest advice being in my second auto grow is… Its not your timeline, Autos teach you to listen to the plants timeline instead.
If you play videogames… I can make a apt side scroller comparison. Both Photo periods and Auto flowering plants are like Mario levels:
A photo period is your standard level where the level scrolls as you move your character, You decide when things change and progress.
An Auto flower is your auto scrolling level. If you take too long to make a decision you may suffer losses. You benefit from being quick thinking and quick acting. Come up with solutions and implement them quickly when the plant has issues.
Have a known solid nutritional plan before starting that gives plenty of nutrients for the cycle. You can’t put the plant on pause or hold so personally I think having a organic fertilizer setup like Gaia Green Organics is really simple and easy to follow.
Don’t defoliate too much because how autos kind of go are like this… This plant seems to just regenerate its leaves in a day! Wow no matter how much I defoliate she just pops out more… Until she does not and I’ve been tricked into over defoliating the plant… Instead work on tucking and LST. If you can move a branch and prevent leaves touching then you don’t need to take the leaf and waste the plants energy trying to regenerate it.

@zoomycat I love the Mario comparison, I have been growing in a peat and compost mix and using Gaia green with recharge. Appreciate the training over defoliation tip definitely would’ve learned that the hard way

@CarKnee I had to learn the hard way. This was my first plant that I basically described there. But I’ve said this online and people have said… I got caught by this too!
