09/10: The are both still much behind where i would expect them to be right now. I think maybe this strain just produces much smaller plants than im used to? Not sure. The run is actually starting to look as big as the other, just shorter.
I havent yet decided if i want to take the little one to flower.
I will be transplanting tomorrow, and will decide then.
09/12: I transplanted one today. Im bot going to repot the little one.
Oddly enough they are both already showing signs of preflower. Admittedly, I have only grown like 4 autoflowers ever, but I am very surprised by how soon these are transitioning. And frankly i dont like it. Would have expected another two weeks for veg development before this started. She is going to be a very small plant likely.
I’m about to finish a BPP grow and mine was a runt too. It grew short and tight but has some great bud development. This was my first grow so definitely learned a lot since. Good luck with your grow!
@RootedJourney, congrats on your first grow! Thanks for letting me know. Now i am conflicted and unsure if i want to bring the runt to flower after all. Haha. If yours was like this one, thats super impressive that it produced those flowers.
@Growyourhi, hey thanks for checking in! Looking forward to growing with you and comparing our plants.
Yeah, i have seen this once before with an Auto and didn't end up transplanting it and letting it finish. I expect ill do the same with this one. I may leave it in this cup as there will of course be room for it in the tent, but i run an auto pot system and do not want to worry about maintaining the little ones water in such a small pot. So it will probably just end up tossed out.
