Slow Growth - Autoflower indoor

Hello everyone I hope you a had a great Christmas.
I am a first time grower, not much practical experience. I believe at this stage the plant should be bigger also as i read other posts and plant looks bigger at this stage. I m growing in a 4x4 grow tent.


Plant: Auto Cheese
Stage: Beginning of Week 6 - veg
Light: Led w120
Light Circle: 20/4
Soil: Mix of 6/10 Coco Medium 2/10 enriched soil 1/10 vermiculite 1/10 perlite
Watering: 200ml every two days mostly when it dries out completely.
twice a week I add Easy Grow Booster
Oscillating fan on. every 15 min.
Temperature : 18-21 Degrees Celsius
Humidity 55-75% usually around 60-65%
Light distance from canopy: at the moment 60cm

Any help or tips is very much appreciated.

Thanks you

That's your issue.
Get 3 more lights and you'd have a much larger plant.
Everything else looks good.

The 20% dirt throws me off but that mix sounds like it should be watered with nutrients daily until runoff. If you had more dirt in there maybe less frequent. Also.... 120w led....

Or just get one good light.

Someone needs to get their wattzzup!!!

I agree with above look at that node spacing too. More wattz for autos

Thank you guys!
Around 300w should do you think?

Am I the only one who finds it weird that auto is in week 6 and has no signs of flowering??

4x4 tent you want closer to 500-600 true watts.

Something like this

Its so far behind cuz of the shitty light it hasnt started yet... it will soon. Likely going to finish out a very small plant. Half ouncer. Maybe an ounce.

At least I only planted one as it was the first time. If I add around w400 more can I still hope for a good harvest at the end or it’s too late?

It would help but autos flower on their schedule. You missed out on a lot of veg growth.... Under ideal conditions its whole live say potential yield was 8 ounces. If you have ideal conditions from right now forward, your potential max yield is probably 2 ounces. If you carry on as you are, .5 to 1 oz.

I have yet to stunt an auto and have that cause a longer veg. Shit if I stunt them they usually flower early lmao.

I think it’s to flowering even tough is quite small.
Is it too late to apply LST? So many i can increase the yield somehow or will be useless? I didn’t do it earlier cause the stem didn’t look as strong I wasn’t sure.
Thanks

Looks very healthy but as mentioned above, MORE LIGHT! Definetely recommend 2 SP-3000s for a 4x4.
Take a look at 26:45 for the tests in a 4x4

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Hello Everyone!
So 4 days ago I finally received a w400 led light. I think the plant is improving daily and in a less than a week looks better I believe. At this point would you remove any fan leaves to allow more light through or keep it as it is? Should I adjust anything? Thanks you

Definitely looks way better! Some people defoliate autos, I left 1 by itself and defoliated 2, and the one I left alone started flowering in 3 weeks, one of the ones I defoliated started flowering at 7 weeks, and the 3rd is still not flowering... Could be the genetics, but I would leave it alone.

Leaves are your solar panels, battery banks and early warning system.
Leaves need light to function.
Light hitting your soil/floor is wasted.
The choice is yours.
I'd let her grow. Looks ready to flower real soon. She could double in size over the next couple weeks. After that would be a good time to consider selective leaf removal to open bud sites to light.
She looks good. Keep it up!

Some of the leaves are now starting to have these yellow stains and started to crack, what can it be? Thank you!!
