About 3 weeks in and already pre flowers? I know they’re Autos but this isn’t too early is it?

3-weeks is not unheard of, and on flip side, 5-6 weeks before flower has happened also. Phenotypes play big part of seed grows.
 
The only autos I've grown we're from Nirvana seeds, and while I've seen strange leaf formations, they were all uniform in flower time and for the most part, similar heights.
 
Don't they have some issues with some of their autos?
Man your guess is as good as mine. This is my first time growing Autos. I ordered from North Atlantic Seeds.

Barney's has been around for a while, over time every breeder will have some issues. I doubt they could have lasted this long if they didn't have mostly good outcomes with their strains.

I wouldn't worry about it, as a first time auto grower there is a lot to learn and you have to start somewhere, so it's all good. I think it was back in 2018 I grew a Sin Trabajo and a Blue Mammoth in an outdoor grow, both finished fine.
 
Looks like the stretch is on!!! Also started my G14 from Fastbudz. It looks good so I’m not going to start feeding yet. Are autos the same as photos where you wait til the bottom leaves start yellowing before you feed?

Looking good! Yea they are - just go easy with the food as it’s always easier to add more than take away.

The reason autos ‘eat less’ is because they’re usually smaller. But just like all strains/phenotypes some require more or less food.
 
They should still pump out some growth for sure. This thing pre flowered around week three, maybe start of week four and wasn't much bigger than your when it got its first pistils on the main nodes. It stretched nearly 3x its original size.

This is at 10 weeks from germ.

This was it a few days after its first pre flowers at the start of week 4, just after stretch started.

Pineapple Express rolling right along it seems. Top leaves are a bit turned down and new growth is looking a little light green, might be getting close to feeding time. Using FF trio + Calimagic. Only going to give 1/4 strength to start. G14 seems to be starting out strong as well.

Tall Pineapple!! Lots of white hairs sticking straight up. She’s had some stress for sure. Thinking I’m going to kick up the food to half strength, I’m seeing some yellowing of the leaves. And just LST’d the G14, she’s growing great!
