This girl popped out so fast. I soaked her and put her straight into coco. She's in her final pot so let's see what this auto can do. This is my first auto plant and I'm extremely excited to see what happens. I won't be training her like I have the rest. I have NOT started nutrient feeds but listed what I will be using during veg once she's a bit bigger.
If you're in coco start with at least 1/4 strength nutes right away. There's nothing in the coco for her to eat!! Poor baby :) Lemon AK grows fast and strong (and tall) with the right environment. Good luck.
@bosgrower thanks for the tip. The coco is treated with calmag before I plant them. I soak them in a bath of calmag. Just scared to give them nutes. Do you think I should though? Don't wana kill her. Lol
@GGrows, you mention that since she has started to flower she won't grow much more. Autos, unlike a regular plant, do what is called the stretch while they are flowering. The buds will start to grow up "stack" and the branches will keep getting taller for a while yet. Don't give up on them, just need a few grows behind you. Outside, in good conditions, with proper feeding, in a 5 or 7 gal pot can yield upward of 1/2 Lb. That is an exceptional grow but it is being done.
Also, if you are looking for a bigger plant, take a look at some of the Super Autos.
All the folks above are correct, she needs to eat. If you feed her she will grow. As they say above just cut the recommended amount by half or a third, as the plants get some feedings and thing look good, you can up the percentage. But watch them and make sure the PH is right 6.3 is fine.
And I would also keep using the Cal mag with each feeding.
Best of luck, she looks good you should do fine.
@amazingautoflowers thanks dude. I have fed her since getting that info and don't worry lol won't give up on her. I just prefer photoperiod plants. I enjoy growing a big plant. Thanks for the advice and I will see how it goes but I'm 80% decided not to grow autos again. Everything else is exactly as you said.
