Welcome to the world of unpredictable auto flowers!
18/6 would be much better for your plants, no plant has ever evolved on Planet Earth to grow under continuous light.
Pants do need "sleep" and thrashing them with never ending light is very unnatural.
Cannabis plants can only grow so much in any 24 hour period and this growth tops out at around 18 hours, meaning running your lights any longer than 18 hours, is basically a waste of electricity. 18/6 was derived at through 80+ years of research into cannabis and is not a random number.
Occurrences like what you are having was part of the reason I stopped growing autos for ever. Not much you can do anymore, once they start flowering, that's it.
She will maybe double in size, maybe only a third more, but not much more, and yes, they do need bulk light to perform to their best.
Hope this helps,..........

@canabius thanks for answering!
I m using coco soil , light schedule 18/6 , the lights is a panel led full spectrum made by me , i bought the led chips groow full spectrum . I had germinate the seed on the final place so i never did a transplant on it.
Is not my first grow on auto , my first tought was the lights , its first usage of it . I would love to know if they are proper but i think this is the only to get answer.

that depends. You should give some more details, like how much light and type of light, growing medium

Hi!
Many parameters can slow the grow of your plant : strain quality, low nutrients watering, over-watering, not enough light, not PAR/FullSpectrum lights, bad PH, etc…
But with autoflowering strains, you must also take in consideration the root stress, who can trigger the flowering. That's why you can't transplant them and why you need to start to grow them directly in big and full buckets.
I think you have here two problems : bad "purple" light and not enough soil/coco for the roots to spread.
P.S: Wow, did Organoman just denied the existence of Ruderalis (who evolved to grow and flower during north-pôle never-ending days) ?

Seedling doesn't growI'm growing 2 White Choco Haze. The same seed, inside a closet 60x60, the same soil, the same nutrition but one is growing and the another one isn't. I've switched the position and also added more nutrition but is too early to know if helped. Some idea?

No stretchConcerned about this plant. No stretch whatsoever yet. Veg period has been longer than expected for a auto (7 weeks) which has probably been a god send.
It’s throwing so many new shoots that the sun simply cannot reach them. Should I be defoliating or just wait?

Why could this seedling be growing so slow?Dropped 13 seeds from 5 strains.
Only these gave problems.
All in same conditions.
One died and the other is grasping onto life.
No problems with RQS before.
Is is the strain that's picky?
I guess I just got a bad batch?
Check out the diary for all the info
