First Indoor Grow is it working?

jxck02 · Sep 21, 2023

First time doing this and I've been going off different things people have advised I did go for the autoflower as I thought I'd maybe would of been easier but starting to think the females are better.

Could anyone provide me any assistance would be extremely grateful! I've got Lemon Haze, Northern Light and AK48 but they don't seem to be at the right size when I'm looking at other people's plants that are roughly the same age.

I placed them in a wet paper towel to crack them on the 3rd of September and then moved them into my shed with a heat lamp as well as mylar sheeting the first week or two was going perfect, growth was definitely there but for some reason don't feel like they're shooting up like they should anyone got any advice, or knows what's going on?

They are in 15L pots and have been using SHOGUN START, KATANNA ROOTS and the terra grow alongside terpinator.

My lighting cycle is 24/0 but would drop it down to 12/12 after the 4th week

The light is also on max light throughout the day the setting higher then 600w illimious light I think it's called throughout the day throughout the night I stick with 250w

what brand light are you running. Soil looks to be pretty wet. Are you watering then letting dry before watering again? If I had to guess if say maybe little over watering. But autos have a mind of their own when growing.

Drop that light to 20/4 or 18/6. Plant need a dark cycle otherwise the growth will lack specific processes u cant supplement without dark. U dont need to switch light cycle, if u grow autoflower at all, it ll automatically start flowering when its ready. I think u have feminized seeds too, I didnt see anywhere regular autoflower.

Terra grow is peat, right? Dont overwater it, peat dries slower. U need slightly dry and wet cycles, so measure weight of pot. Without slightly dry cycles, your plant will suffocate.
Currently they r building roots, especialy when u give em food specified for that. No need to worry, they ll catch up later and have vigorous growth. Just maintain optimal PH and PPM for the stage of plant. I had for example some autoflowers flowering at 7th week for example. It ll still stretch and growth in flower too lil bit.

Learn smt about LST for more buds.

Only photoperioed has these changes of light cycles neccessary.

Hi mate thanks for the advice.

They are supposed to be auto brought them from weedseedshop before I came across this place. I've since dropped them down to 18/6 which cycle would be better for higher yields that or 20/4? It's my first time so just trying to get some pointers for now and the future.

I'll slow down on feeding them now and give them an extra few days to properly dry out rather then overdo it.

As for the method I'll look into that now was interested in trying it out but once again thanks for taking the time to give me some advice appreciate it pal.

I'm waiting for it to get a tad bit dry when I put my finger slightly in the soil there is excess water coming out of the pots though.

20/4 I think but this also depends from a strain. If u really want the biggest yields do hydroponics or better aeroponics and get a led light with full spectrum with samsung lm301b or better lm301h evo. Lumatek Pro version has also diodes similar to lm301h evo, for smaller tents they ve one of the top led lights but even for bigger tents.
