Is my auto way small?

Hi:) first time grower

You’all think my auto is small? I see way many photos of autos with bid fat buds. Mine does not even come close. But in contrast to that. It still has 2-3 weeks left ( if it last that long), the leaves has started to yellow and there is no stopping it. (Tried everything except measuring the Ph. The plant is so close to harvest that I am not to worried. Next grow I most defiently will grant myself a Ph-pen. But my tapwater should be somewhere between 6.5-7. feeding it general nutriens as NPK. It also has some weird colors on top of the colas. Leafs are yellow/redish. Maybe genetics?

Strain:Amnesia haze auto

Age: 9 weeks

Hard to tell, without something for scale, but maybe a little small, looks like it’s been topped, so that will keep it low growing.

Nothing wrong with the plant ssize wize, it looks fine and of decent size for a auto. Not sure wats making all your pistols age prematurely though as it looks like its still got a good few weeks to go. What light cycle are you using (eg 20hrs on - 4hrs off or 12off-- 12on ect). Probably a help if you clarify your feed strengths too.

No thats not bad for an auto. Autos can range from 6 inches tall to 6 feet tall. Most autos are extremely unstable and many times you'll get the height of a ruderalis. If you grow a photoperiod plant under 12/12 lighting from seed, many times depending on strain, it will finish just as fast and yield at least as much or much more, while cutting your electricity in half.

Ah thats why the buds and pistols looked slightly weird. Where these seeds you bought if so were from or werethe they given to you by someone ? Ashame, hope others turn out much much better for you.

Probably the 24hours light stressed her out and she hermied. Cannabis plants need a dark period or they get super stressed.
Yeah I get that. But I read on 100 different websites that its okay to keep the lights on for 24 hours. Actually it was recommended, cause «autos don’t need rest». Guess next run I’ll keep it on 18/24 then:) Thanks for your input
