It’s not trying, she IS flowering!
no no! Autoflowers can stay on 18/6. Infact, as far as I know 18/6 is suggested for autos all the time no matter what time of grow. Autos are not forced to flower by light change. As like photoperiods. The topping stunted her growth effecting your final product. But, it's not detrimental. Atleast now you know. I'd bring her back to 18/6 if it hasn't been a couple days, and then just continue the water routine as normal. There others who can provide more knowledgeable input though stay tuned.
Good move in my opinion, its looking great. good recovery. Keep her on that watering trend. Good job, youre doing awesome!I moved the plant from 18/6 to 20/4
started flower nutes high in K.
she is looking happy!

Looks good! You might have better results at 20/4 plus gives lights and equipment a rest. Its hard to keep up with a 24 hour plant. And if you see yellowing too soon from switching to bloom nutes it's ok to feed the grow in flower if the plant looks like it needs a balanced feed. Bloom nutes cut needed nitrogen. High p is not needed. But high k is good.
Nice job!
Thanks MIMedGrower!! I am extremely lucky she is doing so well now after the abuse she has taken from my noob moves!!
really looking forward to see the yield... the LED light I am using is called a 1500W, actual power draw says 285W. If the 1g per Watt rule of thumb is true that would be 10 oz. The yield on these WW auto flower states 4-6 ozs per 3x3 space.

Great idea thanx for sharingI typically germinate in 1.5" rockwool, I like the 1 gallon square plastic pots for veg, but typically drill them out quite a bit to promote air pruining, feel the plastic containers make transplanting easier when I move on to 3gal fabric for flowering.
CosmoGrows makes some good points, as watering evenly is something over looked by the novice grower, and applies both to soil and coco.
Groweedeasy.com turned me on to transfer pumps you can find on Amazon somewhat cheap. Can't believe I didn't think of it before, another tool to make life easier. Here's my watering rig...View attachment 932537

Buddy look at ur stems. That a cal mag deficiency. Are u watering with RO or distilled water. If so u must add. Dark red purple stems r 100% signs of cal mag deficiency especially if ur plant look like it suffering. Hope this help. Just buy cal mag from ur local storeHere are some pics from along the way

After this photo from Jan 16, things took a turn for the worse. The soil level was not to the top of the pot so I added soil.

She has looked like this for a couple of days. At first I thought she was thirsty so I watered. Now it seems like she is over watered. I’m not sure... leaves are dry and crispy. She didn’t peek up at all after water on Sunday. Haven’t watered her since...
