Slow growth with autoflower?
Fayah_Burnanswered grow question 3 years ago
Hey mate!
Yeah, looks like it has to do with the "grow environment" with that i mean temperature, humidity and light and light.
Your temp. seems to be pretty low, 25/26⁰C would be optimal.
Optimal humidity for vegetative growth would be around 60% RH
and last but not least, THE LIGHT, that plants need to be able to make the photosynthesis, that is the MAIN FACTOR.
For an autoflower 18 hours of light would be optimal, if the plant has never direct 🌞 sunlight or artificial light (lamps) then it will not grow properly, so, yes, if you wanna grow indoor you will probably need a Light Source.
Good luck 🍀

8 hrs of light will have slow growth. I would start feeding it some also. Cheers!

I think your missing a decent amount of light really. Depending on how much natural sun your getting will help. If its inside on a window ledge then it's not really going to grow quickly. Outside in a sunny spot would be best.

Why is one plant lagging behind the others in growth?Does anyone have any idea why my plant no. 3 is stagnating in growth?
She had always the same amount of watering and conditions (except different medium) as the other two plants.
Yes, she is younger, but in relation to her age she seems to be developing much more slowly.

Is my plant delayed in growth?Do you think the growth is slow for its age? It's going to its 7th week and it looks pretty small to me (I'm the gf) and this is my first grow and I'm not sure if we could have done something better to make it more bushier and bigger. Any advice?

Early flower and plant too small?Multiple questions: Is this the first sign of flower on the picture of D21 from sprouting? Doesn't the plant look to small for it still? How do I promote new node growth? Is watering roughly about 1.5L per week too little for nutrient influx?

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?

Growing problemMy last 6 plants (different strain and ferti) grow up slowly and with less foliage. Even in pre flower the plants stretch while I do LST, then at the 2nd flowering week they drastically stop stretching, is it normal? Every strain is having the same result approx 15g for plant

Dark leaves and short/compact plant18 days from seedling. Dark and a bit rumpled/twisted leaves. Branches are coming out but they don't have much space to breathe from the big leaves. Started topping with some chicken manure pellets, too much nitrogen? Also, the 36W LED lamp is only 20 cm away.

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

What do you guys think?It's my first grow (automatic, 6 weeks old) and compared to other plants, my plant looks a bit small/ridiculous. I give her 24/7 light (I read that on guides) is that maybe too much? What's your impression of her? I use two growlights (one from above and one from the side).
