Another week passed by and some interesting things happened, good and bad. In the meantime I removed the 36W bulb and added 3 23W 2700K warm white CFL bulbs to achieve a sort of a "full spectrum" lighting and promote a healthier grow. πͺ
First thing first the Auto Chronic is turned out to be a mutant also π½, so maybe it's not my entire fault that the other 2 seeds didn't sprout, but nevermind. In the first days it only grew one true leaf and now after a full week I can see it's growing another set of leaves, but I'm not sure how this will turn up. Because of this mutation it's also growing pretty slow, compared with the other two. Normally I've would have threw it in the bin and just put another seed, but I'm curios how will grow in the next week and maybe it will recover after growing a full set of leaves. Hoping for the best.π¬
Next, the Auto Northern Light turned out to be winner. After it topped itself after the first node, the two branches from that first node grew larger and thicker one day after another. Also the leaves from the where it topped itself grew pretty large and overall it looks pretty healthy, so all the worries for this baby are gone. I'm expecting this plant will grow nice and bushy and maybe a good yield to. Fingers crossed. π
Last but not least, the Auto Jack Herer is growing nice and healthy, with small inter-node spacing. This looks to be the most "ordinary" and I'm glad at least one of my plants is growing as expected, two weird ones are enough. π
Unfortunately I don't have a ph meter, so my best guess is one or more of these problems: nutrient lockout, ph imbalance or nutrient burn.
The first 3 photos are from an Auto Northern Light and the last 2 are from an Auto Jack Herer.
A ph meter is an absolute must have. Without knowing the ph its all a giant gamble, you have no way of tracking ph shift, and thus have no way to accurately adjust ph. You can get a good meter on amazon for about 45 bucks. Happy growing.
@rambo_97, yeah, should be enough. I stopped posting here, but last time I used only 10x13W LED bulbs (130W total) for 2 plants and did better then CFLs
Hey @TheNoobDude I have 3 * 23W (2700K) + 2 * 40W (2700K) + 2 * 40W (6500K) + 2 * 20W (6500K) home LED bulbs with actual consumption of 200W. I am growing 3 plants with them. Are these enough or I need more bulbs?

You know that "SeedsMafia" are romanian scammers that are reselling old cheap mostly non-germinating seeds that they buy leftover seeds in bulk from some cheap breeders for cents and they resell it a way higher price...Most of the seeds are usually not germinating. I only buy now from real breeders. 120+ days is way too much for this Auto strain...
