Auto-Flower Quick Guide
Germination
- Soak your Easy Bud Box seed in room-temperature water or follow your preferred method (paper towel, pellet, etc.).
- Keep in a warm, dark place (70–80°F) until you see a taproot (~½–1 inch).
Planting
- Once germinated, place seed in the grow pellet or your potting mix, tap-root pointed end down.
- Cover lightly and water gently.
Early Stage / Seedling (Week 1–2)
- Use 18–24 hrs of light per day (LED or sunlight).
- Keep soil moist but not waterlogged.
- Maintain temperature around 70–80°F and moderate humidity.
Vegetative Stage (Week 2–5)
- Continue light schedule.
- Begin using nutrients (Micro, Grow, Bloom) — mix into 1 gal of distilled / filtered water.
- Add nutrients: Micro → Grow → Bloom, 1–3 tsp each (start low).
- Feed 1–2 oz of this solution per plant daily.
- Check soil moisture, water plain pH-balanced water as needed between feedings.
Flowering Stage (Week 5–Harvest)
- Autoflowers will switch to flowering automatically (no need to change light schedule).
- Continue feeding daily with nutrient mix.
- Maintain lower humidity (~40–50%) to prevent mold.
- Keep temperatures stable, preferably 70–80°F.
Harvest
- Watch for signs: pistils turning brown and trichomes getting cloudy or amber.
- When ready, cut branches carefully.
Drying and Curing
- Hang trimmed buds in a dark, ventilated space for 5–7 days to dry.
- Once dry, place in airtight jars for curing.
- Open the jars (“burp”) daily for the first week; after that, do it less frequently.
- Cure for at least 2–4 weeks for better flavor and potency.
