IMO if it was an auto you would know by now .
My autos showed flowers @21 days old, under natural light in June.io
2 months is almost the total grow to harvest span of most autos.
I don't see one sign of flower .

Some proper photos I took this morning

Just started to rain when I noticed that’s when I brought it in inside so it wouldn’t get anymore water

 

[Ghosty420]

That’s why it looks a lil wet on top, soil feels dry too

Does the container feel like its full of styrofoam?

That container is to wide and shallow by the looks of its

Do you see signs that the plant is a female and growing buds now?
I don't. That may really be the good news!
If the plant is a photo period and not auto you can nurture it and keep it going in vegetative growth with proper light control until it is worth harvesting.
Autos can be easy for some or the most complicated if you try to manage something that already has its destiny set. I am learning the hard way [ or my autos are ].
Just me maybe, but I say photo period plant not auto at this point.

Still feels heavy tbh, it’s holding 13litre of soil

I don’t see any signs as of yet whether it’s male or female, if it’s not an auto what’s good news about that? I’ve got some auto seeds on way aswell should be here any day

So the first 3 photos was taken 11 days ago, it’s been growing for 2 months now it’s Afghan skunk auto flower, it’s my first grow I thought I would just plant the seed and water it and see what’s happens (btw I’m doing outdoor grow) it stunted growth for about 6 weeks in seedling stage, I gave it some miracle gro and calcium and it’s improving made a lot of improvement this week tbh, any advise for me?

I would transplant into a larger pot with good drainage and soil like happy frog. Get a moisture probe and water according. Prohibited root growth is stunting.... good way to keep clones until you're ready for them.

Again another person running autos outside, they are ment to be grown indoors, they hate stress and are not hardy like photoperiod strains, think of the sun a a giant full spec light, this light has red and ir in it, this can and will cause your autos to flower prematurely and or dwarf out, while possible it is not advisable and though I have seen a few nice autos grown outdoors the majority are small low yield, now let's get to miricle grow, it sucks and is not ment for weed, they put sodium in it ie salt, try botanacare pro grow autoflowers luv it, allso I suggest you use FFOF for your medium and don't forget to add a bit of perlite and clay pebbles for good drainage, do not Transplant sow seed in nursery pot you intend to do your whole grow in large autos go in 3gal pots while smallish strains go in 2gal pots.

Interesting. I only grew a couple autos indoors with success. I am now trying autos outdoors, which by my logic sounded like a great idea. The first transplant to outdoors went well, the plants double in size in 2 or 3 weeks, but my 2nd transplant to outdoors (thinking maybe they'd benefit from more time indoors) seems stunted. They stayed short and are already budding after a couple weeks.....

I'll let you know how it goes compared to my outdoor photo.....

Thankyou everyone for advise it honestly means a lot, just got these in post, I haven’t got lights yet I’ve got a reptile tank with a light but apperantly it’s the wrong sort of light

That’s why I’m doing outdoor right now

NO ! That is he good news. Surely by 2 months every auto would show something, even as a tease?
The good about photo is you have control. But without lights little.
Choose a light fixture and get them under a longer light cycle, or except what you see, there won't be much to harvest for your effort IMO left to natural daylight.
I mean what do think that will produce? I see pros disappointed with finish weight too often after what I consider stellar grows .
If that is an auto or you can not control the light cycle deposit another quarter to play again.

This plants just a gamble to be honest, I’ve just started germinating some new auto seeds I got but I’ll see where this plant goes thanks for advise man

I'm old skool. I don't like using auto flower or feminized seeds. I also don't like the taste of growing in any medium other than dirt. The synthetic grow media always seem to lack some micro terpene or essential oil that gives it a slightly different taste. That's just me.

OP, for the next grow do yourself a favor and get your setup right before you sprout plant material. You'll be so glad you did and will avoid countless problems. I realize finances/space can limit what you can do but try and get the basics, light/soil/water right and you'll have a pretty seamless and bountiful grow!

Not sure where you are but my GF asked me to setup a medicine tent for her so I told her to order a 5 x 5. She ordered 2 by accident. I would let it go super cheap to help you out but shipping would be prohibitive if you aren't in the local area. I'm in the South East of the USA.

(Quick update) this is the 5th day I haven’t watered them, I was defiantly overwatering 10000% the soil feels dry the first 2 inches but can tell it’s still moist at the bottom as bucket still feels abit heavy... I guess they are still growing but slowly maybe? Getting bored of sitting around and not doing anything to it to be honest lol, just been staring at it most days for hours lmao, what’s everyone think?

Looking better!
I lift my pots and use a meter to know when to water.
I use the meter how this thread shows and have holes in my 5 g pots for this method.

New Simplified Way to Water Marijuana Plants

The other day I had an idea and after testing, it works great. To know if you need to water, get yourself a soil meter. Poke or drill 4 holes in your pot 1/4 way up from the bottom spaced around the pot. Insert the meter probe into the hole and test for moisture. If its dry, then water SLOWLY...
