Cut your light back to 18 hours. She needs rest. Max feed for autos in soiless is 600 ppm 1.6 ec 500 is ok for where your at so far. Bring your ph up to 5.8 and try to keep it there until she starts to bud then to 6.2 to 6.3 Cheers

Size of Auto at end of Week 3
I know genetics is a big factor, but these are suppose to be Sativa dominant 70/30, and they seem to be so short, even the LST sprouts are only a couple inches. When do autos typically take-off and produce some distance between nodes or are these stunted?

Veg times SOG
What do you guys think, should I have vegged longer? I put the lights on 12/12 after vegging for almost 4 weeks. My plants are really short but pretty bushy. The shortest one is 8 inches and the tallest is 12 inches. I wanted to get an ounce off each plant but I'm not seeing it.

slowing
LST
I did for my first time LST training during the week 3/4. I'm really wondering if I exaggerated on pulling she down. I do think she reacted well but she looks too small to being at week4?I have some small branches coming up but they are growing slowing compared to the main one

What happens to my autos ? Too much fertilizer ? Nutrient block ?
First week I tried the devil and fertilized my autos as little as possible, knowing it was useless... Big mistake. After that I could see signs of too much fertilizer, i.e. pointed leaves and since then, slow growth with very small leaves. What has happened? Photo at 5 weeks.

White Widow auto height
My white widows auto's are in pre-flower right now after 3 weeks veg or 4 weeks after seed in soil. Ofcourse I want them to be taller and have more branches for more yield. Will they still grow these upcoming weeks? Or did I count wrong and they are still in late veg?

One of my girls is a little stunted - what's wrong? (Wedding Cake Barney's Farm - feminized)
So as you can see one of my girls is looking a little stunted, and the leaves are kinda flakey. It's still making progress but way slower than the other 3, they are growing just fine. PH is alright, i didn't use too much nutrients, i think maybe i could have over watered it a bit

Early Flowering/ Slow Growth
Should I be concerned that my plant has started early flowering but is still so short? I know this strain is supposed to grow to around 27", but it still seems fairly small for white pistils to be growing at 5 locations on the plant already.

Just to make sure my Lemon is doing alright
Although leaves look ok, my Lemon didn't do much in last couple days. Do you think this is normal for a sativa (only 3inches)? It'll hopefully catch up but still wanted to get your opinion. I hope I didn't do anything wrong with watering or it's not because of high temps? Thanks
