This is my first grow of anything. I have 2 Gelato feminized autos from Crop King seeds. Indoor grow with 1100 Led. soil mix with coco/perlite. Went very light on nuts and only water the last week. Not sure what I need to do or just keep waiting?

I am seeing what may be some nutrient issues but cannot tell from those low resolution picture? I will move this to the infirmary.

Please fill in this form: (copy and paste part is below, this first one tell what specifically to include)

-Problem: (brief description)
-Medium/grow method: soil; soilless-- coco, or peat based like Promix, etc. (please provide the actual product name); DWC, NFT, etc.
-Feed and supplements used: include brand, dosage/strength, frequency of feeding and watering (alone); method-- by hand, drippers, rercirc' or drain-to-waste,... N-P-K #'s too if you can!
-Water source: RO/DI; tap- dechlorinated-?..... EC or TDS reading; pH (don't bother with this on RO/DI, do bother with TDS/EC though to confirm it's working well enough)
-Strain and age
-Climate: night and day ambient T and RH%; res' temperatures; any extremes in T/RH% exposure
- Light used: HID, LED, COB, combo of,... wattage; light cycle hours (20/4, 18/6 , etc.); distance to tops....
-Additional info: PH in the root zone. How long have the plants been affected?...How fast did symptoms appear?... Anything else you think might be relevant..

--Pictures including WHOLE PLANT PICS, and troubled leaves.. use normal light or flash as other light sources ruin color rendering, critical for diagnostics!

They should be ready for harvest by week 12. Those plants are not autos. You can flip your lights to 12/12 and in two weeks or so they will start to flower. But they will also stretch, and take another 8-10 weeks to finish. You have some tough decisions to make.
 
this is the first time I have tried to grow anything. So you don't think these are auto's? That is what I was told I was buying? I have added some better pictures. I stopped nutrients 2 weeks ago. Just using water. Please help not sure what I should be doing at this point. I thought the yellowing was starting because they were going to bloom. I have 2 plants at 12 weeks.

Does that happen often that you get something different than what you bought? I have 3 other plants that I believe are also autos in the same tent. I can't really flip to 12/12 or I will mess them up correct? Could I take these 2 out of the tent for 12 hours and place in garage or closet?
 
It happens sometimes. Ussually due to a breeder does not taking the project as far as he/they should. It takes many generations to stabilize the auto gene.
Man O green is right, you've got some decisions to make. Cull and start over, or flip the lights and treat as photo plants. 12 weeks is a lot of time to loose, I'd probably give everyone a good cleaning, make sure I could get a good solid dark period, and flip the lights. (Might be a transplant needed here too, as your 12 weeks down the road)

Many reputable breeders out there, poke around on the site, look at peeps journals and make your next choice.
Personally I have never had an auto not auto, and I've popped over 100 in the last couple years.
 
I have moved photo plants thru a flowering cycle.
I will never do that again. Every morning, every night, not one missed time. Can't go anywhere or do anything for a minimum of around 60 days.
 
If it has been 84 days and they still are not flowering they probably are not autos. Try switching the lights to 12/12 and see what happens.
 
Thanks so much I feel like a fish out of water. Everything I have been researching was on auto's not sure what I am doing now. I don't have another indoor tent to change the light schedule. Will it hurt them or shock them if I take them out of the tent and put in closet for 12 hours?
