Light schedule with autoflower.
Sunlacking
started grow question 5y ago
Been using a 20hr on 4 hr off light schedule. With autoflower should I consider altering light schedule in flower or leave as is? By default leaving as is as this is a very keep it simple stupid grow.

Leave it on 20-4 light cycle. Autos don't need you to adjust your lights timing at all,

Your plant looks green and happy so I’d leave it alone

Just leave it as is.. An autoflower can flower with 24 hours of light, but most people recommend not going above 20/4..

Weak Stem
I watered today with my sprayer & one of my plants fell over, is this damping off or am I supposed to prop it up somehow? The other ones are fine.

What is happening
What is happening? Northern light was to cramped but could not move it so the photoperiod plant dominated it. I just put it under a led 60 spot light. This does not look at all like my other Northern light. Thanks in advance and will it give me anything.

Cold night temperatures
We are heading into some cold overnight temperatures later this week. Low 40's likely, with daytime 55-60. No rain expected, or not much at least, but unseasonably chilly and cloudy. This one needs time, however. Should I cover it, drag it inside for overnight.. suggestions?

Pistils showing before other four plants
Preflower in veg. This lanky one has an overwhelming plant smell as opposed to my other ones that have the distinct smell. Should I worry of pistils poking through already? Or one out of 5 matures faster lol? Will I stress it into a Hermie for 2-3 more weeks if veg?

Is my Shiskaberry a sativa?
I have the feeling that my Shiskaberry might be a sativa instead of an indica! Her leaves are wide and bright, her grow is tall and lean; all characteristics of a sativa genetic, what do you say?

Feeding
So I soon will be running autos in coco and gaia green. I'm a little confused about the feed schedule tho. Am I only using my compost tea 1-2 times? That's considered their food. And watering when plants need it correct. If so, what should i use in my water?

PH
I messed up & forgot to PH balance my water before using it. It was 9.4 before I mixed in molasses & formulex. I put 1 gallon in each pot. I realized right after I did that, that I forgot. I tried to fix it by adding a 1/2 gal. To each of just plain 6.1 ph water. What now tho ??
