Accurate Information About Autoflowering Plants

[Pumu]

@Pumu I believe that's way to hot,especially for autos. Where abouts are you,are you In the states?
STR8

No I'm not in the states.
if your comment is bcs of yellow perlites, I was not at home for 2 days and I had a heat problem problem. Temp was around 36 C but it's around 27-28 C now. BTW this is a PC growth so far and meanwhile I'm preparing a bigger grow cabinet which will have more free room and better ventilation so I suppose heat will not be an issue anymore.
what about nutes, any advise ??

 

[Pumu]

Hey Pumus plant is 12 days old??
I have one sprouted and it's way smaller than that it doesn't even show on my pics it's 15 days old. Could it be stunned?

Hey there, I ve planted the seed just 15 days a go. She popped out after 3 days. Because of this is my first grow I don't have any idea )))))

 

[VzlaDabber]

This is my first grow also. I just lowered the light based on what quagmire said and the chart posted on an older post. Where are you from?

@Pumu 40/20/20 is way hot! My veg food is 4/3/3 ,then added micro,macro you get close to 6/6/4.
40/20/20 is way too hot..
No websites you can look at for nutes? You could go Organic and make your own, try Earth Worm Castings,and make a tea.

Recommendation is 1 lid for 2 l water, what if I use 1/5 of lid for 4 lt water and just water my girl 1 lt out of that 4 ? Then doest it count like subtilise 1/10 ?

 

[str8smokn]

Not sure.check nutrient /fertilizer threads.

Anyone here have advice on cold weather flowering? Have an auto in soil outdoors that is about 32 days old but no flowering yet.. just a couple of random pistils.. Am thinking that the cold has slowed it down. Switching to 12/12 not an option cos it's already getting less light (outdoors). I'm in Aus, so not super cold and good light during daytime.... It is trained a bit hard, but apart from no flowers yet, looks good..
I'm hoping that i'm just being impatient.....
Cheers for any advice.

 

[str8smokn]

@santb have you topped,or super cropped that plant? Autos do not take anything more than bondage,LST training,their life span is to short as it is. If you've done any pinching or topping then I would say stress is why she is slow flowering.
STR8

 

[santb]

Nah no topping etc although probably almost super-cropped when I bent her over. She is literally at 90 degrees. Plus, have accidentally knocked off couple leaves and a whole side branch while training...
That said, most of the growth in the photo (today) has been since training started almost 2 weeks ago; she has gone nuts with the training, just no flowers.... Definitely has a couple of pistils so seems like almost there... Starting to think maybe not enough light plus the cold temps... Days are now around the 10.5 hour mark and getting shorter where I am in Aus.
Thinking mite put under a light @ say 15/9 for a week and start bloom nutes as of today.....

 

[str8smokn]

Ok autos also need around 13hrs of light to flower out ,to their best. Autos were made for longer day light hrs, not shorter days.so you will need supplemental light.
STR8

 

[santb]

Sweet was starting to think that. Was hoping that the relatively stronger light here might compensate for lack of duration....
She is doing quite well as an experiment...just wanted to see if it was possible in winter here.
BUT I do want the buds so under the light she goes :)
Will it still flower you think with the low light and just take much longer, or do you reckon she'll just die off or herm if left out..?

 

[Quagmire]

I just did a grow of AK47 x Sour60.. it was my 2nd grow and took a pair of twin females and did an experiment to see how auto's would respond to F.I.M. cutting..
it doubled the harvest on the FIM plant and slowed down the finishing time by about 2wks... check out my grow called BubbleguN guys.. I was very surprised how well an Auto responded to this little cut.. I take the very top of the plant, gather up all the leaf material in my hands and cut it in half.. I did this about day 20 or so, man I need to take better notes.. I have side by side photos in my thread showing what she did after the FIM trimming technique... I also supercropped her which to me means pinching each growing shoot at around week 6.. then hit her with some PK.. good luck bro

 

[str8smokn]

@santb i think you will get airy,thin buds if left out with low light. Not sure ,have not attempted.
STR8

 

[santb]

Quag I mite try fimming next auto (in summer tho'); the amount of abuse I have accidentally given this current one makes me think they could handle it..

Str8 Yeah don't mind airy bud to a point (i vape) but if too under-developed mite not be strong enough either so yeah she's under light now for the duration. Already seeing more pistils so you were spot on she wanted more rays.. Will get another pic in a day or 2 to show the difference.

 

[str8smokn]

Good to hear..sending Good vibes my friend.

[santb]

No worries (here we say no wukkers. Aussie for no f....n worries). We love our swearing and abbreviate everything!
Ps thanks again for advice str8 and quags.. Just gettin into this stuff. Is good.

Hey guys,

My Internet is down and it has taken me three days to try and load pics of the 12. I have contractors tearing down my house and they broke my modem.
i'm really worried about some of my ladies because to me they look a little yellow. Could it be nitrogen deficiency? If so can I fix this with a micronutrients formula high in nitrogen? Floramicro is what I have.
also some of them look droopy as if rhe've been overwatered so I have changed from watering one day, next day no water, next water. Two waiting two days between them.
the big one is 20 days old and the others are 13 days old and i'be seen a slowee growth or no growth for 3 or 4 days in the ones that are yellow or droopy.
please check them out and correct me where I am messing up.

 

[VzlaDabber]

Here are all the rest. Also a panoramic view. My light is air duct cooled and it sits 10" from the seedlings. I followed some advice by Mr. Cervantes saying that of it does not burn the back of your hand it won't hurt your ladies. I could lower it but a shadow is casted for the outer ring of plants.
thanks for your time.
