Autoflowers growing slow

[DaZeD*oNE]

So my autos are behind at around day 13 from sprout. I have them in a 5 gallon bucket cut down to fit 3 gallons. I was wondering if the big diameter could b slowing root growth. Or also I haven't drilled drainage holes yet as I'm watering sparingly. Maybe that's hindering them. There nice green and look healthy other wise. Any advice would b appreciated since I'm on a clock with vegitation with autos

Autos are notorious for getting off to 'a slow start' because they spend the first few weeks developing roots. Go to growdiaries.com and do a search on the strain that your growing and compare your plant's development with others that are growing what you're growing. Good luck!

Autos run on their own terms ... “ clock “ or not ( not sure what you meant by that ) .
Autos just want to root and setup without much assistance. Planting in large containers is never an issue , its Like any other seed.
Just remember , you only have to keep them happy for about 90 days average , no complicated growing needed.

That’s because they’re often put in too big of a pot!

Transplanting can be done but only once and when the plant is still young.

Seems you're doing well if they're nice green and healthy.

The strain is landlock funk. I found one diary and there's was twice the size of mine at week 2. Maybe I should have went with a 1 gallon pot to get the roots established well then transplanted
