Can you save an Autoflower that is too small for it's age?

Hey, I've asked a question about my Fat Banana Auto being too small. Is there even point in trying to save this one? It's around 3 weeks old. Started the recommended -6 hour direct sunlight method today. Kept it in a semi-shade under a tree before. Under window if bad weather.

If it's this size at 3 weeks old, there's not much point to continuing with it... Autoflowers have a pre-determined schedule and they are usually going into pre-flower about now... this little lady is nowhere near ready for that. For your next grow, you need to be giving your plant at least, AT LEAST, 12 hours of light a day... autos will grow with that amount of light but they won't perform to the best of their ability... ideally, you want to have 18-20 hours of light every day. I would consider using a tent indoors with at least a decent lighting set up - you don't have to get terribly fancy about ventilation and all that if you're not worried about the smell they produce. But for this little one, I think her time is done. Sorry!

No sorry Nickous but autoflowers start to flower automatically around 1 month from seed. So this one will start to flower soon and maby get 2 max 3 times this size. It is better to start again and take your 3 weeks lost then continue growing this for 10 weeks for 1 gram dried cannabis. I can help you with the start of your next seed and seedling if you want. Just send me a message and together we can grow you some serious plants!
