1st grow Helppp! Auto and Photo

[Oneloveryma]

Agree with Lio on the light, if it is fem you need it, if auto you're right it won't really matter.

Less nutes your soil prob already has minerals in it

Plus if your ph is funky it could be locking out nutes, and or too many nutes are creating build up and locking out. and negative on dumping it in, needs some dilution.

Thanks so much for your replies!
So correct me if I'm wrong, but my impression is that because my auto is already 10 weeks old, and i never once used flowering nutes (only veg nutes and pretty far into life cycle tbh), that it is still lacking in necessary nutrients which specifically focus on bud growth/production, making it hungry for bud nutes.... am i right?
Also, it is 10 weeks old and it is my understanding that autoflowering strains only live a total of 10-12 weeks before they die...

So should I begin feeding it now with flowering nutes and just hope i get something in terms of yield in the next week or two...? :/

You stated that It was random bagseed that was an auto. 1. How do you know random seed was an auto? 2. If it was an auto and self pollinated (usually case with single random bagseed) still only 80% of those seeds will be autos. 3. If it was pollinated by a photo then onlyb50% will be autos.

Yes, you are right. It is from a random bagseed. I know it is an auto because it began making buds after only 2 or 3 weeks, with lights staying on 18-6...

Have you tried any of the suggestions that were offered?

I feed /water it about a gallon 2 -3x/wk

I actually said this wrong. I feed BOTH my plants (one being autoflower and the other regular photo) about 2 gallons (1 G per feeding once a week SPLIT (so about half gallon per plant 2x/week)!!!

I have been drying it out with fans, giving some more fresh air by circulating air for a bit (they are closet plants)...and i am thinking about feeding the auto tomorrow with tiger bloom (will have been 3 days since last feeding of a little less than half a G of veg nutes...yes i know i was dumb, its 10 weeks old and should have fed with flowering nutes instead) :[

I am still not convinced at all that its not revegging. It doesnot look anything like a normal cola. Nothing you do besides putting it on 12/12 will help if im correct.

And I dont think moving an auto to 12-12 will do anything because autos flower automatically regardless of light

Hate to say it but all things going on here it may be a bit lost. bag it up for some hash usage and maybe a couple smokeable buds will form but I would focus on the photo one

Do whatever you would like. Continue to askThe same questions because you dont like answers. And quoting a page on 420mag most def wont convince me that your random bagseed was in fact an auto and isnt just some strange mutant...also how are you going to flower a photo and an auto together?

Ummm...what is the definition of an auto? If it were a photoperiod plant, or some "mutant" as yiu suggest, then how would it have produced buds on an 18-6 light schedule after only 2 weeks...?

I hope you're wrong, but I already know the auto is not going to give high yield...so I agree, I will be focusing most of my attention on Blue Dream now....but still hoping to make as much buds as possible for the auto, and chalk it up as a lesson learned.

I do believe the reason it is strange and small is that I neglected to give appropriate nutes it's whole life! :/

I just realized yesterday that I only ever fed my plants (both) with GROW BIG (6-4-4) otherwise plain water, and they are 8 and 10 wks!!! Now I'm starting to mix nutes 2gether (big bloom 0-0.5-0.7 and grow big 6-4-4) and plan to feed maybe a couple times over the next week with that mixed with water, and then maybe next week switch to Tiger Bloom (2-8-4) and mix with big bloom (0-0.5-0.7)....What do you think?

Thank you so much. Congratulations on making me feel unwelcome and stupid. :/
I am not refusing to listen; I am simply trying to overstand!

That definitely looks like it started revegging in the middle of flower. Either your "auto" is a really weird mutant or it was never really an auto.
