Yeah agree
Photo periods are more forgiving you make a mistake & you just correct it & veg a bit more

Autos you need to be on top of them from day 1

It’s better to learn with photos

It bemuses me why autos are advertised as good for new growers

Thanks @Oldchucky, You called it right. The Canna terra professional is a peat based soil. I’ve never used it, but others have had good results with it. It’ll take a week or so and you should start seeing increased growth.

I use it, its great and it comes with nutes for most of the veg stage. For lighter soil they have their seedling mix. I would say add more perlite and up to 10% coco next time. You can go up to 30% perlite too, biobizz offers a pretty solid soil with 30% perlite but for the rest you have to buy it and put more yourself, its quite cheap.
Its the brand I choose when I wanna get fancy. Canna Terra Professional. It has tree bark which also helps with soil areation, but its more expensive than other brands.
I also live in a very humid area and thats what saved me, more perlite and some coco. Do not use more than 10% coco though, as a soil conditioner works well but a substrate that is half coco half peat wont. I tried it hahaha.

No, you got me wrong or I explained myself wrong. Biobizz is the one that is 70% peat and 30% perlite but then it kinda becomes a bit expensive for just... peat and a bunch of perlite. I add the coco coir myself but some brands like Top Crop (with 10% coco) and Cover Crop (with 20% coco) do use it as soil conditioner in their peat based soils.

Well not just the nitrogen, it also acts as a general nutrient buffer but is not a bad thing.

Also tree bark is even better than arlite for microorganisms. I probably said this like 3 times in 3 days but giving homes to microorganisms outside of the rhizosphere is a good thing too because they live mostly there, surrounding the roots. I always add arlite to my soil, besides the one I put on the bottom for better drainage. They live comfortably there releasing nutes slowly too.
