Autoflower Cannabis Seedlings in DWC (Auto Grow 1)

In this video I cover starting the cannabis seeds, growing them in peat pellets, and finally transplanting them into the DWC hydroponics system.

    How did you do the time laps? Thanks.



  3. Lars Larsen on July 16, 2022 at 9:56 pm

    You can easily drown seeds to death by putting them in a glass of water. Just plant them directly in rockwool or soil.



  4. Mirra Mac on July 16, 2022 at 10:01 pm

    Hello I have a question- how do I force my plants to flower



  5. Icy Bird on July 16, 2022 at 10:04 pm

    What was the shit on the tips? I’m having that happen



  6. Roudy420 on July 16, 2022 at 10:05 pm

    Did you know that adding 1-2 DROPS of hydrogen-peroxide (you know, the first aid bubbly stuff you put on cuts.) to the sprouting water the seeds will sprout INSANELY fast. Use it right at the start, or if most of your seeds germinate and there is a stubborn one, add it then and it will sprout by next day.



  7. Abdullah Haywood on July 16, 2022 at 10:06 pm

    How long did you let your seedlings grow before deciding to put them in your system



  8. SirShootsAlot on July 16, 2022 at 10:06 pm

    Might wanna try germinating the seeds first in a slightly wet paper towel in a zip loc sandwich baggie and place in a dark area for 24-48 hours



  9. The Sarge on July 16, 2022 at 10:06 pm

    I found the peat pellets really restricted my autos when I tried them out for three grows



  10. Kanaan Lamont Bothwell on July 16, 2022 at 10:08 pm

    What nutrients are you using ????



  11. Bruce097 on July 16, 2022 at 10:09 pm

    Looks like a neat setup! Be interested to see how you put things together 👍



  12. Forgetfulpot 56 on July 16, 2022 at 10:10 pm

    what r you using for material to hang to block doorway? sounded like velcro somehow?



  13. Zemmer on July 16, 2022 at 10:10 pm

    52% humidity is a little on the low side for this stage. 70% would be better.



  14. Home Grown And Stoned on July 16, 2022 at 10:11 pm

    Hey are you interested in a sponsorship?



  15. A.L.P.D. on July 16, 2022 at 10:11 pm

    Rockwool is better, u dont make ur water dirty with coco pucs later.



  16. Closet Urban Grower on July 16, 2022 at 10:12 pm

    That might just be seed casing on the leaf



  17. back2growing on July 16, 2022 at 10:13 pm

    Give the last one some time..i had one pop after 16 days in a napkin..so be patient..



  18. John Inphx on July 16, 2022 at 10:13 pm

    Those Home Depot buckets let in light and let stuff you dont want grow … I’d switch those out for black.



  19. RonTech34 on July 16, 2022 at 10:14 pm

    Your buckets will let light in they need to be black or either spray paint then a dark color



  20. Turner’s Lawncare on July 16, 2022 at 10:14 pm

    Love this channel! Re watching your video’s! About to start my first DWC autoflower! Any advice or tips I would appreciate it! Go check my video out! I always follow back! Happy growing



  21. Craig Bambury on July 16, 2022 at 10:17 pm

    Or. We’re. Can. Gt the bucket lids. Sted off cutting mines tht way. Crap. Bro help brother out Scotland here wwg1wga



  22. ßluedream on July 16, 2022 at 10:17 pm

    growing in home depot buckets is a big mistake. the light will penetrate causing algae.



  23. DeZZ NugZZ on July 16, 2022 at 10:17 pm

    Very nice bro the sour crack sounds delicious.! Excited for this run my friend.👍💯👍



  24. Go Grow New Mexico on July 16, 2022 at 10:18 pm

    It’s probably just from the pellet I get that sometimes with rockwool



  25. It's Not A Drug, It's a Leaf! on July 16, 2022 at 10:19 pm

    Ok, I’m confused because I’m new to this whole autoflower thing, but The title says "Autoflower" but the seed you are using are Feminised seeds. Aren’t these two seeds different? Can you grow a feminized seed as a Autoflower? I ask cause 1 of the main difference in these two is the light cycle. For feminized seeds, you are going to need the 12/12 cycle to make it flower as opposed to autoflower that can be grown under 24hrs of light because of its generics. You see where my confusion kicks in? How are you going to grow these feminized seeds as autoflower?



  26. Sonoma Seeds on July 16, 2022 at 10:20 pm

    How can we email you so we can send you seeds.



  27. Go Grow New Mexico on July 16, 2022 at 10:26 pm

    Humidity doesn’t really play a factor bro plants will a climate to there environment.



  28. Ryan Comeau on July 16, 2022 at 10:28 pm

    What was the final cost of the build not withstanding the original smaller diameter drains? Thanks and great channel.



  29. Ghost In The Darkness on July 16, 2022 at 10:30 pm

    WhT happened to u ?



  30. Andethidial bubabibub on July 16, 2022 at 10:30 pm

    The tiny one looks like all of my trials.. They stay like that for months



  31. Lars Larsen on July 16, 2022 at 10:31 pm

    Start over. Those plants got stressed by the taproot hitting air at 1". They’re going to flower at 3" tall and your yield will suck.



  32. jah12879 on July 16, 2022 at 10:32 pm

    If light still goes through the bucket you can spray paint it.



  33. Hopeless Romantix on July 16, 2022 at 10:34 pm

    Obviously not very experienced with autos. Poor starting technique, poor feeding, inaccurate information and tips. NEVER transplant autos! Start in the pot your going to finish in… at least 3 gallon pots.



  34. Ali Arsalan Khan on July 16, 2022 at 10:34 pm

    Know that else is inert and absorbs plenty of water instead of Hydroton? Coal.



  35. WillieBs Snap on July 16, 2022 at 10:36 pm

    I was waiting for you to talk about how much nutrient mix you start off on new plants. You never say anything about it



  36. Mike on July 16, 2022 at 10:39 pm

    Skip the seed water soaking step with the initial germination and place the seeds straight into the rehydrated peat pellet. I’ve had 100% germination success doing it that way.



  37. Sir Zex on July 16, 2022 at 10:40 pm

    What app do you use for recording on the phone in the tent? Plz help



  38. cesar gr on July 16, 2022 at 10:41 pm

    Those aren’t autos seeds. I thought by the title



  39. paperclip on July 16, 2022 at 10:42 pm

    Hey😀 nice setup, Im gonna try with small rockwool cubes instead! Should do the trick i think. My setup is screaming for roots. Are you using ro-water or just plain tap water?



  40. Robin G on July 16, 2022 at 10:49 pm

    Should wrap your lines too. Totes work so much better and the hook ups are on flat surface. Nice setup though.



  41. Ghost In The Darkness on July 16, 2022 at 10:51 pm

    I’m starting a dirt grow indoors , seeds are in a paper towel right now . Day two. You have inspired me to record it ., tell me , if I knew someone growing in a state it was illegal should that person do a video on it ?
    Anyway I AM growing Afghan kush , not all the seeds dropped but when I pushed the others in they sunk half way.



  42. Symbiotic Grow on July 16, 2022 at 10:51 pm

    Left my pineapple Auto in water for up to three days by mistake because I forgot 😬, it rooted out but I thought it was dead. Decide to put in the soil and Glory behold it grow. Lol it’s been healthy ever since 😅
