What's the breeders flower time? What strains,where did you get seeds from?inside or outside? What size pot? And when did you start feeding nutes?your in a good spot.
Why don't you start a new thread here in the Autoflower section and post up some pictures also so we can see what you see.
If your week seven then this has to be a 100+ day flower then. How much are you feeding?

Seeds from herbies on there website advertised 8 weeks from seed to germ... Inside 5gal pots Fox farm happy frog soil no transplanting... Started feeding grow after week 3 started bloom nutes around week 6 and feeding at half strength so far 300w led from mars hydro I beginning to think the light is not doing so well during flower...

Ok well the 8 hrs of light is probably why they are staying small. Autos need more light , they were breed for almost no dark period. you will need to add supplemental lighting to increase light time to at least 12-- hrs of light, but of course more the merry.

Mine have been under 18/6 The whole time first time grow so just learning as I go thanks for all the infoOh for sure that is his problem Str8.. I've done 4 grows now regarding Auto's and on each one I've used different light schedules so I can learn for myself what they like and don't like.. I started with 24/0, then 18/6 and last grow 12/12.. I even allowed light leaks in on the 18/6 vs full on darkness to see how they'd respond to a light leak, you know, like hermie issues.. NONE. I noticed on 12/12 they stretched a bit more then on 18/6.. bud production on 24/0 vs 18/6, I felt the 6hrs of darkness produced harder buds, more dense and better resins.. I just feel all MJ plants need an area of darkness to do the magic they do.. this run I just switched them from 18/6 to 14/10 to see if I can get them to stretch just a little more for the next 2wks.. we'll see, but 8hrs of light would be very strain specific as I'm sure at least 1 Auto would perform under that low of light conditions, but overall bud production would be quite limited so lots of plants would be needed to make up for it and a high # of plants can be held against you under certain circumstances... better off with 4 big ones with lots of training then 16 smaller ones to achieve the same goal in the end.. change your light schedule to at least 12/12 and watch her.... if not to late in the game already... LUCK.
I do not know anything about the MARs but I've heard they do good..maybe it's just the soil with your feeding program that's kind of Dragged the grow/ flower time out. From what I can see she looks good just keep giving her flower food. They do kind of take a minute to shot off, they will grow till the day you chop almost. I do see alittle clawing ,high nitrogen but it's not bad now just watch how strong your feeding is.less is better when it comes to Autos..

Yes autos are of a lite feeding family.
She still looks good.

I don't rate herbies grow times, just popped over to dinafem and got some Amnesia xxl auto, blue cheese auto and an og kush auto, think I'm 5 weeks in and the blue cheese is thriving, jst shown her pistils now, the og kush seems to be struggling and the amnesia is 3 weeks behind anyways, it's also my first time with nutes, I've only ever used rainwater in the past and got very impressive results so I'm hoping for better results this time round, very interesting thread too, I've always repotted autos with no adverse effects, jst make sure the first pot the soil is nice and damp/sticking so it doesn't fall apart when you take it out te pot, and I've used nitrozyme during the repot process which helped a lot, gave me no down time using that over not using anything during the repot this time so. And I'm running a bio range of organic nutes under 250w clf blue for another 3 weeks the. Flick over to the red bulbSeeds from herbies on there website advertised 8 weeks from seed to germ...

Hey Seraphim longtime no see my friend.how did your fem autos turn out?the ones you did the thread on? I mustv forgot about it as i didnt see how they turned out.(i dont doubt it was good)Specified grow times on all seed sites(for autos) are nearly always lies! Seed companies suck you in by claiming 60 days but the truth is that there are only two kinds of autos.
Normal autos, which takes 70 days/10 weeks and super autos, which takes 100 days/14 weeks. These times are from the day the plant is above ground until harvest
So take all specified times with a pinch of salt as they are put there as a marketing tool.
Hey mate, good to hear from youHey Seraphim longtime no see my friend.how did your fem autos turn out?the ones you did the thread on? I mustv forgot about it as i didnt see how they turned out.(i dont doubt it was good)
Thats a shame it wasnt up to your standrds but thats what its about and thats how you are so highly thought of in the auto game.because your standards are high.Hey mate, good to hear from you
I never finished the thread but it wasn't good news with the cross as when the mother was tested on completion she was far from the standards I have set for myself. She had a great smell, structure and appearance but was severely lacking in potency so I have had to go back a generation on the blue blood project so I can get it right.
I have started another feminisation thread which I will complete this time, and I am using a strain that has been developed for over 10 years so there is no danger of disappointment on this one
