I’ve watered once with water phd to 6
7. What is the pH of your water?
6
8. What kind of fertilizer do you use and what is its NPK ratio?
None - shouldnt need any with this soil mix until flower
9. Do you foliar feed or spray your plants with anything?
No

Too cold. Raise the temps to closer to 80 if you can. Are you adding in a bunch of pH up/down?

16 day old plants and you have only watered 1 time ?
Started in 5 gallon pots , wet the soil, let it sit for a few hours then planted germinated seeds - waited for the soil to dry out and then watered once .

You don't need to ph water for soil grows.
The soil will buffer the water correctly itself.
At least this is how I grow in FF soil.
You need to fert before flower regardless of soil unless you are organic.
Look for fox farms feed charts. They all start at week 1 in ff soil.... 🤔
Feed them.
Plus 1 with upping temperature.

It would have been better for you to start in small pots and transplant up as needed. 5 gallon fab pots @ 73f will take too long to dry out. I want my pots to dry in 3-4 days @78f+ then I can feed once a week. That much soil with few roots and foliage make it hard for the plant to go through the water and roots stay wet for too long causing problems.

Get your temps up as best you can into the 78 - 80f range. and watch their colour...lime green = under fed, dark green waxy leaves = over fed

My autos started to flowered at day 21 and I basically missed the whole veg fert cycle..

Many auto growers start in final pot.
You really have NO CONTROL with autos IMO so it may be best? 🤷‍♂️

Seems like you soil mix is a little hot for seedlings, maybe to much N. They should grow out of it and be fine.

Day 21 - they seem to be ok now - even the little mint julep is showing some growth(might top her just for fun - didn’t think she’d still be alive) . The 3 super lemon haze are super bushy - I did some LST on the main stem and tucked some branches as well. Also filled up the self watering plant bases , added 1/4 strength big bloom , 1/4 strength grow big, and a splash of cal mag (no idea why but I did) .

I have 2 auto gsc at 7+ weeks now and they were transplanted 2 times each, solo - 1 gal - 3 gal, Auto's don't take shock very well, there's very little recovery time so if you're going to shock your plants during transplanting then don't bother transplanting but if you can do it without shocking your plant then WTF. Roots don't grow into dry soil so if you only water the plant and not the pot then the roots won't search for new soil if its dry....
