So I decided to take a risk and add some more soil beneath these two... and it went really well! (I think.) I first carefully removed the diatomaceous earth layer sprinkled on top, got my partner to help with extracting the plant (and holding) while I added more soil to the base of the same pots. Then it was a slow flip back into the pot and some extra soil added around the edges. They're looking good and hopefully the extra room means they'll be more comfortable now. Not much else to report really, other than the weather seems to be improving! Looking forward to seeing them begin to flower over the next couple of weeks, then will introduce some diluted bloom nutrients into their diet. Smell is getting slightly stronger now too, but not overpowering or 'weedy' yet.

Hey Your ladies are looking good! Could you take a look at my week 3 dwarf diary? My girl is a little small for 20 days and I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to boost her growth organically! Any feedback is appreciated!

@ladiesgardens, Thanks for the advice! We've been blessed with a day of sun today so they're currently drying out and getting some good rays!

@LawAbidingCitizen420, She's looking good at week 4 now, but maybe a little over watered? Maybe let them dry out a little, and more direct daylight if possible :-)

Looking nice.. what soil are you using? No stress summer wil begin shortly :) Your pots are a bit small for autoflowers, next time I would take some bigger ones (at least 15L) so they don’t get root bound and stay healthy till the very end. Good luck! 👍

@ladiesgardens, not sure if it’s smart to transplant, maybe it’s best you make a growingquestion, there are pros here that will answer that. All I know is that Autoflowers stop growing for up to a week and that’s far from good for a autoflower. They need a stressfree life.. I hope 8L will be big enough but just ask to be sure. And always remember, the more room foor roots the bigger the yield and plant.

@CoastGrower, just plain potting mix with veg nutrients included. Thanks for the tip! I wasn't sure how big to go on the pots - do you think I should move to a bigger pot? Or maybe remove the diatomaceous earth/add some more soil?

Don't feed bloom nutrients untill she at least shows sex. You'll know when that is because white hairs start forming on the nodes, but that won't be necessary for at least another week or two.

Looks great! I'm also doing my first autoflower grow but not doing so well. May I ask how much water you're giving each seedlings from week 1-4?

@knifepartie, Thanks!

@pillowz,Generally the first week just keep the soil damp, week 2-4 , water till 10% drains out bottom, re-water when the container "feels light" and at least the first 2 IN of soil is dry. It is better to underwater than over water. Over-watering is one of the biggest mistakes in growing. especially for beginners who, rightfully so, check and water there plants way to often. Depending on size, the first couple weeks might only need 2 watering a week, depends on soil type and drainage as well.
