autoflower

what are the problems judging by the pictures of these auto flowers from dope seeds.
here's the stats:
lava rock and course vermiculite soil less medium
growing under a growtek cfl t5 24" tube(x2)
ph is on the high side,(kentwood water)the ph meter is late
just started adv nutes sensi 2+ yesterday



the ones on the left are a week old mi5 from dopebeans and the other older ones(2 weeks) are a mix of short stuff and onyx from same place.

here's my philosophy,besides the fact that the ph has just been adjusted and adv nutes just begun at probably less than 1/3 strenght,I think that in the auto rudalis nutes must be applied alot quicker than regular strains,but I'm no pro.
So let me here what u think are a few problems and how you correct this.

way too early for nutes and way too early to tell the good from the bad. Have patience, I also grow auto and have learned to just let them do their thing.

are your autos done in 3 1/2 months or are they the 10 weeks from seed?? Makes a little difference on particulars.they are working to be 3 weeks this friday and from what I understand they will pre flower in weeks 3-4,so I would imagine nutrients are needed during this time due to the fast process of reaching maturity.But I'm no pro and that's why I have friends to ask.And I'm sorry for posting more than 1 tread about this,attaching pictures kinda screwed me up and kept hitting back buttom after the submit.

here is mine at 16 days. so i dunno but i hope my pic can help u as to where they shud kinda be towards 3 weeks

the lil bitches are like 9 days old

i think they need their own container. and more light and are they growing in a pile of soil on the floor?

That was funny,but I can see how it looks like that.They are grown in one of those rubbermaid containers.I was told 4 for every sq foot,but as u can see they are about 8 inches apart long ways and 6 inches side ways.It was just a test instead of using my pot containers.The layers of lavarock will enable the roots to take a more general track downwards.If they were regular beans they would be in 2 gallon containers,but I'm looking into the white bag thing(kinda diggin them.The auto's are looking a little better,I'm only at 350 ppm's but I think I will need to go to 600ppm's to get better results.The 6 on the left look like champs now,they are a week younger and are bigger than the one's on the right. I will post new pics Saturday or Sunday,need the house to my self first.
