tropical cookies auto sativa alpha

Adding some bloom nutes after she’s flowered will help but you got to get her there first then cross that bridge. I think having a small amount already in the soil ready to go prevents any stall when she decides to flip.

With auto flowers and a half assed decent soil you won’t even need to add nutes for a few weeks. If you used a prepackaged soil that has delayed fertilizer in it you may not need to add nutes at all. Adding some bloom nutes after she’s flowered will help but you got to get her there first then cross that bridge. That gives you some time to read up on it and make decisions.

Water when she needs water. You can use a meter or stick your finger in the dirt both are just as accurate. At this age just focus on keeping her moist and not soaking wet. She won’t need much water at all right now. Start with maybe a half cup gently poured around her about 1-2 inches from the base of her stem. When the surface is dry again do it again. As she grows you need to increase it. Again just keep her alive and use that time to read and catch up.

Then you won’t need to add any nutes. You may supplement some flowering stuff later but maybe not. Again…bridge…cross later.

Water right before she needs it.

Why? They can uptake water within minutes. Even wilted plants will rehydrate in under two hours depending on mass.

She doesnt but the soil does and soil saturation allows for unhindered root growth. Roots arent going to explode to bottom of the pot but top 6" being kept at least moist is important at that size.

Read what I said.

Allowing the soil to dry increases the need to seek out water causing even more expansive root growth.

And ultimately with the amount of soil in that tub you’ll likely overwater if trying to saturate that amount.

Suggestion for you.

We have a lot of resources here that you can take advantage of. Feedback from members is important but as you have seen points of view can differ for techniques for growing pot.
Recommend you use our forum diaries section by hitting the 3 horizontal bars and navigating to forums. Once there scroll and find diaries. From there use the spyglass to search for terms like autoflower or the soil you are using. You can even put down your nutrition selection and strain of weed. The system will populate all the diaries that match and you can look at historical grows that you can follow and duplicate success.

Good luck.

was actually reading a diary of a newer grower who had an auto and from the same brand seed "queens royal" i just turned down the light some. the posts mark 4" and the string guess i could of done with out. my soil is basically mirical grow. but didnt know i can refine a search like that thank you!

Good advice here. Just make sure you're getting good info. Some people know how to grow autos and others kill them all summer.

So in general terms when a seedling gets tall like that its because they are stretching for the light. That means the light is too far away or too dim. I cant remember if that has already been said and dont want to read again. Also not saying what you need to do just some "most of the time" knowledge.

Its also a sativa which tend to stretch because of genetics. I'll be trying to keep an eye in here for updates.
