Week 4.
Dwarfism continue also with the soil plants.
First time using LED, and wondering if the blue spectrum over the red is responsible of the short stretch.

Difficult to maintain a balanced nutritional parameters for all the plants.
EC 1.6
PH 6.2
28-30C light on
25-29 light off now with dehumidifier
Rh 55-70% ( I will add extra ventilation)

Apologies agayfor the photo quality. My camera is in it last days.

Once a plant is stunted it rarely grows out of it.sometimes they can still produce some decent bud, but stunted is stunted!

Thanks for the comments.
For the Coco coir I am perfectly agree with you. My bad no other excuses.

But for the soil, environmental parameters are quite good. RH a bit high, but not a problem for the soil stage. Nevertheless they are dwarfs.

Genetics are solids.
Ppm is low, but I would assume a stretch not the oppoy.
What I did wrong now?

Ill have to go back and read what you e been doing. I had a couple dwarves when i first started autos. For me it was letting environmental conditions drift in the first couple weeks. I have had alot more success keep a close eye on temps and humidity and try my hardest to keep it perfectly dialed. I dont know how you are watering either. I like to give my seedlings just enough water to get to the next watering, about a cup at a time, slowly working out from the center keep the outside dry to encourage root growth if that makes sense. Basically just watering a 4-5 inch circle around the sprout and try to keep it moist until about 2wks and then i start watering the whole pot and let it dry back before waterings. I use happy frog soil so i dont start feeding until after 3-4wks and just use distilled water. Hope something here helps.keeping the environment dialed, and not overwatering is key to a good start in my opinion. Its alot of work in the beginning but isnt anything good worth the work?!

Week 5

I will do something a bit drastic this time.
A couple of livers and the Stilton seems almost there to me. The Stilton is particularly suffering with a completely nutrient needs that the rest.

I have pollinated with Killer Skunk pollen so next week I will start to cut 3-4 plants in Coco. They are small, thanking only space / light and the seeds should be ready to harvest (+2 weeks dry).

Others plants and the ones in soil will continue to be tortured.

Many thanks all for watching and advise

When did you pollinate? You wanna give them 5-6 weeks from what ive read, to make sure the seeds are viable. Looking good

Thanks KingRatt, very much appreciated you are looking over me.

It's a effimeral week 5, actually 7 from where they start flowering the first one.
I have lost a bit the count with autos as they do what they want.
Day 70-75 or something like this.
Next week they will be 5 weeks that I have pollinated them. For the majority I will wait and several are far to be ready, but the Stilton is suffering and 2 livers are very small.

I could consider an extra week eventually.

Dont know where i heard it, but i read somewhere that even fingered leaves are rare. I dont know if i believe that. I seem to get alot lol. Heres a 6fingered leaf from Blue Zushi, and Look at SLIC! Shes has 4 and 6 fingered leaves!

Hi all,
I finally sit down and checked my notes and calculated some numbers.

I am exactly at day 77 since the seeds sprouted.
I have then pollinated the plants at day 42.
The plants started flowering at day 30.
So I am now at 35 days since the flowers where pollinated ( theoretically 2 weeks after flowering).
I never spry water over the pollinated plants, just turn the fans off.
Quite pollinated tent.
