What’s up with my Auto?

I’m sorry I’m new at this can’t find support ticket. So I will wing it. This Bruce Banner in Promix HP pooped out of soil 1/14/2022. It’s in a 2 gallon pot( it was just to fill the space. Oh yeah I’m running a Maxsisun MG3000 in a 32”x32” tent. Light 300 watt pull from wall. So here is the plant I’m talking about( won’t flower) I just put in in the dark for 36 hours and all it did was stretch a bit. Now the next two pictures are of the same time and everything else the same.I thought I read something about hermits, I don’t know. Thanks for looking. The other three in tent was 10 days older and they look great, except small( my fault).

Sorry not sure what happened second picture is of the other plant (same age and container) and flowering fine.

Looks like you posted two pics of two dif plants. The fact that it stretched should tell you something....just leave it alone on an 18/6 or 20/4 light schedule and consider yourself lucky that you got an auto that didn't flower at 4in tall. The taller one is covered in flowers, it looks to just be a little behind the other...which can be expected when growing from seed. Even if they are the same BB, they will most likely not grow the same. One may need more attention than the other or be more sensitive to heat and lights than the others. One may be tall, others short, or different structure... Just shit you gotta learn to deal with.

Hermit? You meant hermie...as in hermaphrodite...as in both sexes are displayed by the same plant. Do you see balls on the taller plant anywhere? Do some cannabis plant anatomy research.

I understand some plants take longer to flower. She’s only got preflowers. Guess I’ll just keep it healthy and see what happens. Thanks for your reply. And yes not sure how it happened but the other plant is of the same age.

It is also entirely possible that you got one that needs to go to 12/12 to flower. If that ends up being the case then you have some figuring to do.

Dank, I never thought of that. You are right figuring to do. I will post what happens. Today 2/23/22 start of 12/12.

Good luck, keep us updated

Looks like it's already transitioning to flower. No need to flip lights to 12/12 for an autoflower.

I would have left the lights on 18/6 or whatever you were using and had some patience.

I’m using 18/6 and not giving up on her she’s been the same way for over two weeks. We’ll have to see what she does.

You just said you were starting it on 12/12.

40 days isn't too long for a plant to be in the stage she's in. Just focus on keeping it healthy and providing it with the proper amount of nutrients which aren't a ton for most autos and let her ride. What does the breeder say is the expected finishing time for that strain? Keeping in mind that's just a guide and they usually pad the numbers on the low side in my experience.

FristCavApache64, breeder says 70-98 days. I guess it hasn’t been that long. You are right most breeder numbers are low.. I will kept posting her.

So figure it could be 98-115 days to finish with a 56-63 day bloom roughly most likely. These are all really rough guesses as I don't know the strain but counting back from there she's doing just fine. Give her 18-20 hours a day of light, proper watering habits and you'll be in smooth waters. Good luck with your girls!

Not sure what to do very frustrated. I was trying to get my Ph to 5.6-6.3, soilless I believe by using too much Ph down I screwed up the ph in my plants. Most are 4.58 or close. I’ve tried Garden lime up didn’t work.Also tried dissolving in water first. Still no luck . Used tap water Ph of around 8.3. I’m out of ideas They have 4-6 weeks to go. All clear Trics . Just wanting to finish them. This is bar none my worst grow ever. I made So many mistakes, I should have done more reading on auto. The one with the nasty brown leaves are mostly wind blown. She’s the one in the last pic did change with the tap water. Went from 5.18 to 6.01.

I have know idea why some go to the mall and others don’t. I’ll try again.Best it gets, I guess.

With ProMix HP your water does not need to be ph adjusted. Quit that...

And give them a flush with just water. When they are dry again, feed.

Cheers

Thanks for the reply. I don’t know why I was so stupid. I’ve done about 8 grows long time ago with pro-Mix and never had an issue; except bugs. I mixed in some of the BeyondPeat. Realized after growing a tomato in it it comes out of the bad wet and Stays wet; people Never use this. I also was new to Autos,so made lots of mistakes.

Do you have a ppm meter ?

I think you are also over feeding.....

Cheers

Hang in. Your grow will yield some decent nug, and it will be a learning experience. I made all kinds of mistakes when I started. Eventually, I followed the Mephisto grow guide, and I grew some of their autos. This took all the guesswork out of it and the results were great. I highly recommend their 3 BOG as a bullet-proof strain that is easy to grow.

Chuck eye, there’s only one with a ppm of 600 all others are around 300-400. McStrats, I’ve got a few grows under my belt but this is the first autos. I will look into those genetics, thanks.
