First time auto grow. 4 Cream Mandarin XL are 4 weeks old yesterday the other 1 AK-47 3 weeks old yesterday & 1 Blueberry 3 weeks old today. Just wandering if they are on schedule. Creams started budding on day 21, AK started on day 17 (what??), Blueberry on day 21 today. They are on 18/6 light schedule from beginning under 1000 hps, only light I have. Here's some pics of the girls n set up.

Oh yeah... I'm using pro mix hp cc and general hydroponics micro, grow, bloom and floralicious. Water is at 6.3-6.5, not sure how to check pH in medium, I'm assuming there is a tool for that. I'd appreciate any feedback thanks. I'm not having too much luck with the feedback, not sure if my titles aren't catchy enough or what! Lol I'm just a guy who loves everything about the all mighty ganja plant! Just curious if these autos are looking ok for what I got going on. Thanks, n please I don't mind criticism be honest with me.

Nope people don’t see all the threads. I got a grow diary had 1 person look at it n started day 1 seed n now 4 th week flower.

I’m no pro by any means.
And autos are a different animal too. In a way.
I think they look ok. Problem is with an auto is that ok don’t cut it.
Every little thing directly effects your yield. You can’t pause n straighten things before going to flower. Clock ticking. Now those lowball timeframes are not garuntee.
10-13 weeks is what mine said.

What’s your ph? And what lights how far? You need to maximize everthing and be coasting smooth early as possible.
Looks like your running a little dry too. Which could be the whole thing. My Auto ate up water. Dry all the time. 2 times a day in 5 gal fabric pots. I think with the “faster “ growth they use more water.

All the info is at the top of this thread... Age, strain, light. Appreciate the response. I'll go check out your grow, what strain you growing?

Little adjustment to nutes, they seem to be better. Blueberry (28 days old) tooktoff, it was the last to b dropped. It's the taller one, anyone know if the blueberry autos get taller than most? AK-47(29 days old) is looking pretty good. I've seen a lot of people talking about that strain being real airy, she seems to be filling in nicely, it's the middle back one. Cream Mandarins (30 days old)seem to be filling in really nice those are the other 4.

I grow autos, those look great. Just feed them and let them do their thing. My yields are smaller than photos but the weed is good.

Bend leaves out of the way if you can. Only trim the stuff that dies. They dont react well to trimming usually.
