1st grow Helppp! Auto and Photo

Oneloveryma · Nov 18, 2016

Hey all, Im currently in week 10 on my autoflower which happens to come from a random bag seed
and currently in week 9 on my regular photoperiod baby Blue Dream

Anyway, both plants have been growing side by side their whole lives, and both have a ph of 7 currently. I am just now realizing that I have failed to switch nutes over since auto began flowering around week 3 or 4, and now that my mystery auto annnnnd my Blue Dream photoperiod baby are BOTH measuring about 18 inches!!!

Is it too late to switch over from Fox Farm Grow Big to FF Big Bloom OR FF Tiger Bloom??

Im assuming neither one of my plants are going to grow any taller....?

Can i still get nice buds even if ph stays at 7??

Thanks so much!

These are all pics of my 10 wk autoflower.
Note the curling leaves, small buds and other signs this baby needs to be nursed back to health!

Could this all be symptoms of high ph ??

i'd say it looks more like chronic overfeeding and overwatering

First question whats your light schedule? Looks like It was definately overfed and overwatered its whole life. But it almost looks like its revegging or something cause the structure dont look right.

And i think it looks strange because i chopped too many fan leaves off after flowering but its an auto

I dont think your auto Is right at all. If that was my plant I would immediately turn my lights down to 12/12 like its a photoperiod plant.

And yes that Is definately too much water. Nutes every time? If yes overfed aswell.

Yes :/

Oneloveryma · Nov 19, 2016

So what now?

Oneloveryma · Nov 19, 2016

Ok so i should switch lights to 12-12?

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.

I would switch It to 12/12 and not water for 3-4 days and then only water when pots light. After 2 plain waterings 3-4 days apart you can start using 1/4 strength nutes every 2nd watering.

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.
