Sorry for the late update. First off thanks to all who have replied. They were definitely on the dryer side. I am now watering 3-4 liters and likely every 3-4 days. The light is now at 500 ppfd and they are in 7 gallon fabrics. I fed them with Gaia green 444 (2 tbsp) and 284 (5 tbsp). They are doing much better. I'm new to autos but run 2 tents of photos with no issues. These autos seems to be very hard to keep happy compared to my photos. These are not the best genetics either I'm afraid. Once again appreciate all your time and input. Take care and have a great day!

I think if you start with autos first, you learn how to read them and approach them and love them more. But, if you start with photos then treat autos like photos, that’s where you run into issues. If you master autos, you master photos pretty much

If you are so inclined, you MAY raise up the ppfd. I have my HLG 600R at 22” dialed back to 435watts. This gets me ppfd at 800+ with 500+ at the edges. If you do, you MAY have to increase watering also.
amen bruv!
coming off photos, I was surprised how fragile the autos can be. but I'm 2-3 weeks to harvest now and I very much appreciate the 8-9 weeks from seed to harvest as well heheh
I never ppmed my tapwater (and in some places didn't PH either but the I moved to my current location and yes - not all tap water is equal.
you don't have to do it until you really have to do it haha
