Slow growth after 20 days,Advice?
richgrowsstarted grow question 5 years ago
Hi 1 of my Autoflowers that was potted on 1st March 2020 only grew 2 nodes after 20 days,the rest of the same autos are now into their 4th node. Did I miss something out? it is currently on Veg fert with Ph of 6.3 and 620 PPM

Its stunted from topping as I see zero other reason for it, this happens sometimes being more risky to do it earlier than forth node.
I know photos can do this but autos you will have more consistent luck finding another training method.
Sometimes it works and thats great but others you get a dwarf or worse. Will still produce I think.
"Never stress an auto" its what I go by.
Good luck they look good other wise 😃

it seems to me that you made the topping too soon but you may also be giving too much water due. controls the weight of the pot well, tries to leave the substrate almost dry and does a light watering with growth nutrients

@richgrows Hi mate I think you may have topped it too early which can stunt the growth especially Autoflowering plants

Hi, the best is to plant an autoflower direectly after Germination Their final Pots ( filled with afluffy perfertilised Growingmedium) because if they stay to Long in Tiny Pots they may get stunteed. And Automatics hate transplants.
So we just have to wait if the Girl was damaged alittle due the time in small pots or not.
Happy growing

Why didn't my plant stretch?Why is my Wedding Glue Auto so short? She's healthy as can be. The issue here is that she is in day 30 with zero signs of upward growth and only 5.5" tall. Can I fix this somehow? Huge leaves though. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

No change in growth. Shall I get rid ?I've given them 3 days under raised humidity and I haven't noticed a change at all. I just don't feel they are worth my time anymore, something is not right and I don't know what. They should start flowering soon and it's nowhere near ready to, it's tiny. Anyone else agree ?Week 3

Induce stretch in a short plant.After much research, I couldn't find anything on how to properly handle a really short plant. Does anyone have a thought about this? Or how to induce extra stretch? This is for documentation and research for this particular grow situation. Please see week 5 entries. Thanks all!Week 5

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.Week 4

Opnions?I really feel like two of the girls are stunted have not really had any new growth and already showing pistils. The other two seem small and not much growth maybe from transplant shock. while the last 2 are booming and doing excellent and way larger than the others. Opinions?Week 4
