When cultivating Acapulco Gold Autoflower seeds, the optimal growing conditions are essential to ensure the flowering plants reach their full potential in terms of potency, yield, and aroma. Whether you’re a professional grower or a beginner this strain needs to be tended to with care to guarantee the best results.
In terms of temperature and humidity, Acapulco Gold Autoflower seeds generally prefer a warm and humid environment. During the day, temperatures should ideally stay in a range of 74-76 degrees Fahrenheit (23-24 degrees Celsius) while humidity should be high at a range of 70- 75% relative humidity. This type of climate is ideal during the vegetative stage and will help ensure that plants reach maximum growth and development.
During the flowering stage, you should adjust temperatures so that they range between 70 – 74 degrees Fahrenheit (21- 23 Celsius) and reduce relative humidity to 45-50%. This type of climate promotes larger, more resinous buds and helps prevent the occurrence of powdery mildew or other fungal pathogens.
In terms of soil and nutrients, the Acapulco Gold Autoflower strain prefers a light, sandy soil mixed with organic matter like worm castings or compost. This will help reduce compaction and promote oxygen flow throughout the soil. As far as nutrients go, you will want to use a balanced blend of macronutrients as well as some optional micronutrients. A good starting point would be using a 7-8-5 NPK ratio and supplementing with trace minerals (such as magnesium, iron and zinc) throughout the life of the plant.
Don’t forget to provide your plants with sufficient light. For best results, you should be using a fluorescent or LED lighting system set to 15-18 hours of light followed by 6-7 hours of darkness. This type of light cycle will ensure that plants’ metabolic pathways are able to stay active and you will be rewarded with strong, healthy plants.
With the right growing conditions and some TLC, your Acapulco Gold Autoflower plants will reward you with beautiful buds that are full of flavor and power. They may require a bit of patience and knowledge of the optimal conditions, but you can expect a rewarding harvest that will satisfy and delight.
