Auto 5 week of flowering. Feedback wanted

Yo just wanted a lil feedback on my auto. She's about 5 weeks into flowering. I am giving 12/12 cycle direct sunlight unless it's raining then it's under 500 w. Giving small amounts of Beastie Bloomz once every 5 days starting about 10 days ago. Any suggestions? Seed came from platinum cookies.

so, it is about 8 weeks old and 5 weeks into flower? it looks healthy, just a little small. hopefully it will swell a little in the next few weeks.
Ya, so what happened was I germinated the seeds and they got knocked over into my flower bed. Couple weeks later I found her. I moved her to the pot and about 3 weeks later it started flowering. It's about 18in. Any reccomendations to bulk her up? I haven't been adding any N because her color was really dark and seemed healthy so I've been using beastie blooms stand alone.

only way to make it bigger is more light/more hours of the day. probably dimishing returns vs effort at this point tho. keep it healthy, add light if you want. there is no magical bulking nute that will make a significant difference.

For sure. I've thought about that but like you said I don't want to mess with the flowering process by adding light. Just gonna keep her healthy and enjoy. Lol. Thanks.

If it is an auto it shouldnt matter. You could give it an extra 4-8 hours of light per day. Many ppl do 20/4 for autos

I didn't know that. That's good to know. Thanks again. Is there any way to tell if it's an auto for sure and not just a very late plant that started flowering because the weather/daylight change?

nope, if it is a photoperiod plant and you give it extra light it will reveg after a few weeks, and start throwing weird growth, non serrated single leaves and such before it starts growing again.

She woulda got hurt bad when was knocked over man.. autos apparently don't like being transplanted.. u should start n finish in the one pot.
Here's a pic of my 9 week old trainwreck auto.. my 1st auto grow, going strong

I have gone 24/0 20/4 and 12 / 12. They were all awesome grows but they all had to be treated differently .after several auto grows I have learned they will get as big as you want them to get or as big as you allow them to get. I am on my 48th day, i'm taking down this 3 x 3 tent with a 600 today and leaving them in the closet and upping it to 1000 watts.
I am using the new Sensi pH perfect formula. I am just using the base.
autos CAN and should be stunted on purpose but not until you have experience with autos. I recommend everyone growing their first few autos with the K I SSmethod (low low ppms ) . If they are transplanted prior to stretch they won't stretch and still produce big buds. notice my center auto with the cigarette pack was purposely stunted as I want it to be behind schedule. last year you will notice 4 jock whores produced Over a gram A watt Of stank stank. I was going to keep them in a tent but I guarantee you since this is early flowering and this 3 x 3 is full,if I put 1000 over it and space them apart more they will continue to get bigger these are big and just started flowering. I use 5 gallon smart pots 100% coco Galaxy ballast. First time using AN ph perfect . I will get a picture of the one plant I did not want to stretch I made it like I will get a picture of the one plant I did not want to stretch I made it like this on purpose notice how thick the stock is on purpose notice how thick the stalk is. are there any other advanced nutrients products that would help with flavor etc. I was going to use molasses The last couple weeks

What I was saying was the seeds got knocked over before I thought they germinated. Then I found the plant growing in my flower bed where the seeds fell. I did transplant then and I agree that probably didn't help her grow bigger. She is small but the bid is looking pretty solid. All of it was an accidental grow. Lol.

Here are some pics today. I think what I've learned is that by not having more of a 20-4 or 18-6 is the reason why she is so small. Luckily (so far) good genetics have me optimistic that although it won't be a huge yield the smoke will be good. I have a 8x8 shed I am preparing so I can do a real grow. Lol

never go higher than 450ppm keep it effortless untill that extra 20% is worth it
