Extra perlite will increase the plants tolerance to overwatering. Root like air as much as water, and nutrients. If your area is prone to heavy rain at times It would not hurt. I usually place grow stone at the bottom and in the mix some. Same concert differ material.

When to use wick system I was hoping to wait until the end of this week to use the self watering bases since the plant looks old enough, and I don't want to over do it. Should I set it up after I too dress with recharge again, or will beginning of week 5 work?

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.

Blooming in week 3-4 The plant has 4 weeks from seedling 🌱 and it's already blooming. Why so early? Could it be nitrogen toxicity? What would you do increase the yield? I won't trash her, since the yield is not the primary goal.

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 is that?Yesterday evening feed 0.5 litre EC 1400 pH 5.9. Runoff was EC 900 pH5.6 Increased light intensity to PPFD 600. This morning larger upper leaves are in "praying" position, one leaf closer to bottom looks sick. If it's a light burn, why not on upper leaves?

Feeding right after repotting (coco coir).After repotting an auto flowering plant I get runoff EC of 800, while feeding water has EC 1200. I guess EC gets diluted (biggest part of coco coir is new). Should I increase EC of the feeding water? I see slower growth but it may as well be due to stress of repotting.

Trichomes mostly cloudy?How do the trichomes look to you? I have a hard time telling if they are mostly clear or cloudy. This plant has lost quite a bit of leaf material due to deficiencies in the last weeks, therefore I am not sure if I should harvest earlier instead of in 2 weeks.
