Auto Flowering growth stunted HPS+LED

[redtoro]

Hi all this is my second topic here.

Stage one:- Here is my story I Have 2 Auto and 1 Super Auto. Big Band, Northern Lights and Nirvana Sky.
My growing medium is soil and I was growing under a 30 aquarium light I noticed that they were starving for light and read up a bit about the LED's with mixed reviews.
I was running the cheep Ebay LED's and I found that after a month my plants growth was stunted and yellowing. This was fixed with some sea emulsion treating an iron diffidence.
I was giving them 10-12 hours of outdoors light a day then I would move then indoors.

Stage 2-So now we are about 2 months into the grow now and 2 are taking off and the other was dark green had hairs and was just bigger then a sprout. I looked like a nugget. On the advice of this forum I changed my soil to something a little better, transplanted into bigger pots and set up a proper grow room with fans and a 600Watt HPS with shade ect.

Current: My plants are on the mend I thought diffidence again and messed up the PH slowly day by day they are looking better and I am slowly adjusting the PH.

Water every 4 days- 1 and a half weeks ago PH in 5.8 Run Off 7.8PH
Watered 2 days ago PH in 5.8 Run off 7.0PH

I run the HPS on and off 6 hours here and 8 hours there and when I switch it off I run the LED.

All plants are looking good so far except the tiny one that is showing signs of improvement.

#1 Can I run the lighting the way I am or am I confusing the plant

#2 The small plant looks like its flowering even though its tiny is this possible as its a super auto and its been 2 and a half months

#3 Have I done damage to the plans thats to bad now or should they continue to recover as long as I look after the PH and lighting?


Thanks for your advice in advance Photos to come in 10 hours

That little one looks like its trying to just grow a bud off the stem. Hehe.Idk, that should work, auto flowering right?
I grew autos once before, and it didnt matter what I did,
They just kept doing their thing. Doubt it will confuse them.
But maybe just leave the hps on when they aren't outside?
Sorry dude, I'm baked, and don't want to go back and re-read.
Just feed them, and give them a bigger pot if needed, you should be fine.

Hey Bleuballz Thanks for your input I appreciate it.
I am not longer putting them outside I just swap between the 600watt HPS and the LED ebay light when I am at home I run the HPS.

I still have no idea what that small plant aka #3 is doing.....
Also how far along would they be in relevence to the size of them?

 

[bleuballz]

I'm guessing between two, and three weeks old.
If you have the soil, and buckets ready, I'd transplant them, and give them a good
feeding.
I have no idea about the LEDs from ebay, but I would think you would get more
out of the sunlight (depending on your location) then the LEDs. And run the 600 at night?
That's probably what I'd do. And use the LEDs to veg the next batch.

I'm in so.cal and I'm going crazy waiting to put my plants outside full time!
I have mothers waiting to flower. And I hate spending money running lights, and fans.
but I do it anyway.

2 months old? They're not going to grow in size much more. Autos usually veg for about 2/3 weeks then go into flower mode. I can't believe they're that old and not flowering yet. Seems the genetics aren't very stable.

No I didn't know I was suppose to. The white hairs appeared 9 days ago. Should I be changing the light?
