Hey some one please stop by and give this question a thought dont like losing sleep thinking about my plants thats some bullshit haha, well any way my plant is like 20 cm tall and its at day 27 im a little worried about the length howcome it hasnt started stretching. Have i stunted my plant? of course theres no way to tell on those facts but i can say what i havnt done. No heat stress or light stress nor nute burn or any defficencies and shes been all healthy throughout the whole grow and seems like shes really happy and i looked that others that have grown this same strain had at this point the same length in inches so 20 inches and im at 20 cm haha well if anyone has any thoughts of what i should do to maybe help a stretch get going ? thank you all !!

hey bbg, im new to the auto flower world so i have been doing a fair bit of research. I was reading yesterday to NOT start using flower nutes until week 7-9. apparently vertical growth will stop if flower nutes are added week 4-6 maybe this was the problem? hope this helps. peace

Where did you read that?

 

[Automagical]

will have to get back to you on that, does that sound like rubbish to you? im new here and all and any info if greatly appreciated.. this is exactly what the guide said about the life cycle (as i wrote it down) - week 1-3, end of week 2 start light veg nutes. week 4-6, vertical growth will stop/slow if flower nutes added. week 7-9, start with flower nutes. week 10-11, discontinue flower nutes let fan leaves yellow.

That 7 to 9 weeks before adding flower nutes is the thing I question,A lot of autos are usually done and ready to harvest by that time.Once they get the main f lower pistols js when I stat flower nutes
