Grow micro and bloom
That's what I do Baxterwolfe. The only other thing I add is Hydroguard.

Ok yeah rifle got ypu... it will work then buy an extra bottle from the additives once at a time..just work your way up
Didn't mean to trample my bare feet through your thread Atrain. It just isn't often I know the answer. When I do I get excited and jump right in.
Find it hard to believe you have not even been nominated yet Atrain, while some day maybe I will be interested in doing autos, when that day comes your PM box will be full.
Keep up the good work
LOL yeah right

Hey its not trampling my friend... we're all here for the same thing to progress autos and help each other grow better brother....
Here's an auto Candy Kush. This is my last bean from a ten pack I got last winter. Best auto strain I've grown and one of my friends favorites. This is ten days, running in Doc's Hi Brix kit, first time I've run an auto in Doc's kit and I'm very excited. I've pushed this strain in other mediums,, now it's time to see what the Doctor's kit can do 
Have a great day everyone, great thread Atrain!!

What was your ratio of coffee grounds to promix, Baxterwolfe? That sounds interesting.
Hmmmmm....mother gave me some fancy schmancy pumpkin flavored coffee, I will NEVER drink that. BLECH! Wonder if the plants would like it. LOL
oops, had the wrong name there. My apologies.
A quick update on my Mythbuster a Bubble Kush Automatic from Royal Queen Seeds. Today is day 36 and she just hit 50" in height. My light is as far north as it will go and only about 5 inches above her head. Truly a first world problem to have. 
Rifle, how do you start your seeds?
I just started 2 autos in 1" rockwool cubes in a NFT tank with no matting, a trickle of pH 5.8 water running down it and a 125w CFL for light. Seems to work a treat but tutorials and stuff seem to favour propagators and heat mats which I got a poor hit rate with.

I dampen a paper towel with warm tap water then squeeze it out, fold it over once. Place my seeds on it, fold it over them. Two layers of towel above and below the seeds. I place that on a small dish 4"x6"x0.5"deep. Wrap that in plastic wrap. Cover with a dark towel and place on top of the tv where it is warm. 36 hours later I place the now sprouted seed into a rapid rooter plug and place it medium deep in my hydroton basket. It all goes into the tent; lights, fans, timers all on. 600w hps about 2 to 3 ft above them. As they grow I lower the light until I find the sweet spot.

I used about 3/4 of a cup of brewed coffee grounds to about 5gal of pro mix. The coffee is supposed to slow release nitogen and some other benificial nutes.
High all
Thought I would chime in on how ATRAIN suggestions has made my 1st auto grow fairly easy and successful.
Per Atrain instructions I ran 3 Hso sour diesel sreds and yielded over 400 grams.

Have you read this? LA's Quick Guide To Simple Backbuilding Technique For Buds! (for next time around of course)
Yes...I certainly have. LA back building technique is one I employed on my 1st grow with photos.
I don't agree with bud cutting on autos.
In my experience I won't take the risk of stunting.
