Slow growing autos
caliEskimo5started grow question 4y ago
Why do autos stall right after preflower? I have had many auto flowering strains just sit around for a week or so, seemingly stagnant and without any issues but just slooooooowwwww.
Am I stunting my autos by reducing Nitrogen ferts during this phase?

This can happen during the stretch phase. Auto flowers are from the ruderalis family which flower based on time. The transition of veg to flower is slower then regular so with some strain's it can seem like they are doing nothing. But they are preparing to flower. Building Roots, Stems are getting thicker to hold the buds. Its completely normal, Plants are looking good.
Happy Growing

Ola bro,
E normal, também não sei explicar. Mas também jå passei por isso.
Apenas algumas cepas fazem isso.
Param durante uns dias, uma semana.
IncrĂvel, mas real...
Se queres melhores resultados, nĂŁo cultives auto. Aprendi isso, na primeira vez que plantei sementes feminizadas ..
Vais ver toda a diferença amigo
Boa sorte no teu cultivo e abraço

I donât have an answer but just anecdotal experience. I donât do autos anymore for a variety of reasons.. but a lot of mine would stall around the first weeks of flower.. theyâd have balls of pistils and sit like that for 2-3 weeks before packing on any weight whatsoever-bizarre

Growth rate expectationHi,
I was wondering how much growth to expect from my buds.
She has been prefloweringfor 10 days and the last 2 she s been in full flower.
Her top buds have a diameter of 1.5 cm at this point. That means in 15 days it ll be 3 cm diameter.
Will the growth exellerate?Buds. Not fattening
