CRITICAL AUTOFLOWER RULES: 1. NEVER TRANSPLANT - Start in final container 2. NO NUTRIENTS FOR 10-14 DAYS 3. KEEP HUMIDITY HIGH (70-80%) 4. TEMPERATURE: 75-80F (24-27C) 5. LIGHT: 18-24 HOURS PER DAY 6. GENTLE HANDLING - Seeds are fragile CONTAINER SIZE: Autoflowers prefer 3-5 gallon final pots. Roots determine yield potential.

WHEN TO FLUSH: Start flush 10-14 days before harvest date. FLUSH PROTOCOL: Week -2: Stop all nutrients. Water only. Week -1: Plain pH'd water. 2-3x pot volume. Final days: Water lightly. Let soil dry slightly before harvest. ORGANIC GROWS: No flush needed. Stop amendments 2 weeks before harvest. Feed microbes until end.

WHEN TO FLUSH: Start flush 10-14 days before harvest. FLUSH METHOD: Use pH'd water only (no nutrients). Use 2-3x pot volume in water. Let runoff clear. ORGANIC GROWS: No flush needed. Just stop amendments. Feed microbes until harvest.

WHAT IS LST? Gently bending and tying branches to create an even canopy. Increases light exposure to all bud sites. WHEN TO START: Week 2-3, when plant has 4-6 nodes. Stems should be flexible but not brittle. HOW TO LST: 1. Use soft plant ties or coated wire 2. Gently bend main stem horizontal 3. Tie down to pot edge 4. Continue tying new growth 5. Stop at first sign of pre-flower BENEFITS: - Even canopy = even light distribution - More bud sites exposed - Increased yields (10-30%) - Controls height

WHY NOT TOP AUTOS: - Limited veg time (3-4 weeks) - Recovery time = lost growth - Stunted plants = lower yields - Increased risk of hermaphrodite ALTERNATIVES: - LST (recommended) - Leaf tucking - Mild defoliation EXCEPTION: Only experienced growers with fast-vegging strains should attempt topping, and only in optimal conditions.

LIGHT DEFOLIATION (SAFE): - Remove 1-2 large fan leaves weekly - Focus on leaves blocking bud sites - Best done in veg and early flower HEAVY DEFOLIATION (RISKY): - Not recommended for autos - Can stunt growth - Reduces energy production WHEN TO DEFOLIATE: - Week 3-4 veg: Light defoliation - Week 1-2 flower: Remove blocking leaves - Late flower: Avoid LEAVES TO REMOVE: - Large fan leaves blocking light - Yellow/dying leaves - Leaves touching soil

CFM (CUBIC FEET PER MINUTE): Measure of air movement. Higher = more air moved. CALCULATION: CFM = Tent Volume (cu ft) x Air Exchanges x Modifications MODIFICATIONS: - Carbon Filter: Add 25% - Each 90-degree bend: Add 10% - Long duct runs: Add 5% per 10ft FAN SIZING (UPDATED FOR SMALL/MEDIUM GROWS): - 4" Fan: ~190 CFM (2x2, 2x4 tents) - 6" Fan: ~400 CFM (3x3, 4x4 tents) - 8" Fan: ~700 CFM (5x5 tents) PRO TIP: Buy one size larger than needed. Run on speed controller for quiet operation and lower energy use.

WATER CHANGES: - Every 7-14 days (full drain and refill) - Top off with plain water between changes - Never add nutrients to top-off water RESERVOIR CLEANING: - Empty completely - Scrub with 10% bleach solution - Rinse thoroughly - Refill with fresh nutrient solution AIR STONES: - Clean every 2-4 weeks - Replace every 6 months - Check air pump output regularly BENEFICIAL BACTERIA (OPTIONAL): - Hydroguard, Voodoo Juice, Great White - Prevents root rot - Add after each water change
