Gregzky..
Didnt take too much to find your primary problem...your transplanting..avoid transplanting autos..It can be done, but as I said, you run the risk if stunting.
Run your autos next time with the advice given and you'll have an entirely different ballgame!

cheersa

Im not good enough at ppfd v dli yet but would assume that autos on 20/4 - 24/0 need less pofd than those at 12/12 - 18/6.

Something ive been trying to get control of atm daily light intergral and all that seedlings at 100-200ppfd veg at 200-400ppfd..

We dismiss this fact as troll bait now, autos handle transplanting very well in fact just the same as photos.

I transplant small to big autos fems regs and i see zero difference or stress :-)

Re:transplants

I have to disagree..transplants do make a difference to autos! Particularly, 3 transplants...

when you pop that auto seed..You've got a set time to build a structure on that plant before it begins to flower...Everyone has heard of transplantshock..whether it be disturbing roots, change in soil medium, pH or what have you..sometimes the plant will lag a day or so..sometimes longer..It all depends on the strain..some are less sensitive.

For a photo period, its not a concern as you're not on a stopwatch..You merely hold off changing the light cycle to induce flowering..

That said..additional stresses..LST, FIM, or what have you compounds the problem..

Sometimes the roots get damaged in the transplant and that's what makes them take so long to recover... My best advice would be to plant in your final pot... That way you know that if your plant is growing slow its because of the size of the pot... Take this from the ADVANCED NEWB!!!

Lots of diff opinions on the stunting.
If these autos are stunted will they hermie and Is it dangerous to leave them with my other plants that are doing well? Meaning pollination !

Who knows if they herm - its pretty random. I leave my herms in as pollen drops not takes to the air. At best i get a few seed - if you want a lot of seed simply put a fan on the plant :-)

You seriously havent the foggiest of what your talking about on these chat boards...My apologies to the person I called out, who questioned you in the past.

King...You havent given One piece of decent advice on this thread since it was started and the grower inquired about the stunting problem...

Auto's and photos are very different...and those listening to people like you are doing themselves a serious disservice!

Funny..how even before Gregzky mentioned his growing method I was able to speculate two of the primary issues..transplanting and light hours...yet you make it sound like some random occurance

You have a grower with genuine questions... and your responses are no more than a bunch of jabbering away like you know what you're talking about...Not one decent explanation as to the two tiny plants..

And hermies dropping pollen...Your fine with? For a grower who claims to know what they're talking about your a total hack! Hemies..random?? You
shoddy breeding of plants with hermie tendencies accounts for you whacked view...wow!


Seriously..If you dont know what you're talking about...zip it!

Auto fad bubble?
Autos are thriving...are you just using bag seed?
