So I’m 25 days in now and my plants look small for starting the flower stage. I’m still new to this whole autoflower thing seeing my first grow that was suppose to be auto went 18 weeks. Is there substantial growth in the flowering period or am I going to have dwarf plants.

No stretch
Concerned 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?

Expected standard size by end of week 4?
I couldnt help to see that other growers´ photoperiods (BB strains) are taller, thicker and leafier than mine by week 3 and 4. Is it normal that mine by the end of week 4 is this size? Affects that the seed shell is still attached to the stem? Will appreciate a lot your comments

Hi guys. Considering the several problems of this grow, how I can change my setup for the next grows? Now I'm using Plagron Alga fertilizers and the Promix substrate (no fertilized). Do you suggest to set the lamp in bloom mode (more reds) also during the veg phase? Thanks, M

Is my plant too small (in week 4) to get a decent yield next month?
Should I worry about the length of the plant at this time? I'm now halfway week 5 and it's about 25cm, but it's hard to believe this will still double in size in the next 2 weeks, assuming lenght growth will stop or slow once flowering starts.
