Well I started growing 90 days ago I was doing great with my watermelon autos 3 of them and this community helped me grow the nicest plants I ever seen they were doing great and budding like crazy. well I decided to use my ppm meter thinking I was the man first grow and killing it well when using the ppm meter I mixed the bloom nutrients . I had no idea that the 10 × on the ppm meter because I didn't do the research or read the directions so when I gave her 1100 ppm I was really giving her 11,000 ppm I don't want to show the pictures because they are to devastating to look at but now I'm starting over I threw the ppm meter in the creek. these are the plants from this second run they are 2 weeks into veg I will keep you posted on how I'm doing .I did learn one thing about autos it's better to leave them alone less is more with these plants thank you everyone

Welcome. I'm new here and to growing myself. (Haven't grown since early 80's). I've overfed my plants during both water swaps (growing rdwc). Hoping I can get a handle on it soon. I figure if I kill em I'll do the same as you did & start over. It's my first grow, not last..
New batch looks healthy.

welcome - ted4152 is 100% correct....you hear all the time...ah its just a weed it will grow anywhere...Altho that may be true...growing Good weed has a learning curve. take no shortcuts and you will do fine. After 10 years and a break I'm still learning. one of the biggest things i learned was don't follow the directions on fert packages - I always use less than they say until I see what happens (burn or not). Oh and PH is important!
I love it man. The old school way of learning shit is f*cking shit up, that's what my paw always told me, and that's how I have lived.Well I started growing 90 days ago I was doing great with my watermelon autos 3 of them and this community helped me grow the nicest plants I ever seen they were doing great and budding like crazy. well I decided to use my ppm meter thinking I was the man first grow and killing it well when using the ppm meter I mixed the bloom nutrients . I had no idea that the 10 × on the ppm meter because I didn't do the research or read the directions so when I gave her 1100 ppm I was really giving her 11,000 ppm I don't want to show the pictures because they are to devastating to look at but now I'm starting over I threw the ppm meter in the creek. these are the plants from this second run they are 2 weeks into veg I will keep you posted on how I'm doing .I did learn one thing about autos it's better to leave them alone less is more with these plants thank you everyone
