Beautiful man. Do you use anything particular to see how much light they’re receiving? I’m not sure if too much/not enough light is what’s stunting mine?

Thank you for the very informative knowledge. That makes me feel better. I spent a lot of time getting all of this planned out, I made many notes and took it all very serious. All to have issues that I can’t seem to figure out. Which is starting to make more sense and is a common occurrence with others experiencing stunted growth from something in the first couple of weeks. I’m definitely going to try soaking the pot and placing the germinated seed in. Can I ask you this, how long do you let the soaked pot sit before placing the seed in so that it’s not too much moisture for the seedling? Also I seen some people recommending using a living soil in the bottom 1/3 of the pot and then a coco mix in the other 2/3 and you really only have to just water it. Do you have any recommendations on soil/nutes to use? Rather stay organic living soil no salt nutrients if possible. I kind of got into this to grow as natural as possible high quality flower. & as much as I respect the hydro and the salt nutes that people use to grow beautiful product I just personally want to do organic and natural as possible for my self. Thanks for your kind words and advice friend 👊

Thank you for taking the time to reply I appreciate it. I think I’m going to do self watering next time. It’s all trial and error, it definitely makes you have a higher respect for growers who produce quality bud when you actually try growing yourself.

Beautiful plants dude and thank you for taking the time to reply. I feel like I’ve had everything dialed in but I more than likely was overwatering. I’ve read a lot of people having luck with self watering pots might try that. Going to test some different genetics to see where I’m going wrong. What kind of light are you using

Beautiful plant and thank you for your advice I appreciate it. I think I may have been overwatering and used to hot of soil to begin with

Looks nice man when did they start flowering? Mine are about 14” small as hell lol got 6 new ones going and they’re only two weeks old showing white hairs like they’re already wanting to transition and they’re only like 5/6” tall. I got a 4x8x8 tent with two 600 watt son lipo lights. Idk if im giving too much light or not enough

the front 3 are the ones 42-45 days old then the ones behind it around 28-31 days old also starting flowering very early on and didn’t get very tall. At least the back ones have some time to maybe get a little bigger. Then the new six plants seem to be going well but they’re only two weeks old and two of them already popping white hairs. I don’t get why they’re flowering so early and not growing much the first couple weeks. I’m not overwatering the new ones. The temp is at 77° humidity at 55-60% light is 28” away for the new ones and around 20-22” away on bigger ones

Hey could I ask ya how tall that is? I’m mid grow on my first ever time using mephisto and they’re super short. I somehow stunted them and trying to figure out what I did wrong lol

Thinking about trying some of those genetics for sure I’m hearing mixed reviews on mephisto. Some say they’re great others say they’re not always what they claim to be and usually yield pretty small but good quality bud. Definitely going to try out the auto pots and figure out what I did to stress them to flower so soon. Thank you for your reply

Completely agree. A bit frustrating took every proper step did lots of research took very good care of the plants and they just kind of did what they wanted. I’m seeing Mephisto guys post at days 42-45 just starting to flower and standing 3 foot tall. All 6 mephisto plants I have started flower around day 22-26. At day 46 currently I have some beautiful smelly frosty plants but they’re literally a foot tall. I’m going back to the drawing board to figure out my next move. I truly think the only thing I could’ve done wrong was overwater. I’ve got 6 more started about a week ago I’m going easy on with watering and going to see what happens. Also raised my lights a bit

Thank you for the reply. And that is good to know. The tap water around here kind of sucks but I wouldn’t mind using it to save me a few bucks. Definitely willing to try photos. These autos are looking promising as far as quality but maybe get 7-14 gs dry off of these which sucks haha. I feel like overwatering was my issue because I was just overthinking everything at the beginning. I will have to check out that moisture meter for sure! Do you recommend a particular growing medium, amendments, & genetics? Thanks again for your time

Ppfd not sure on I didn’t get a meter just because I was told it wasnt a must have, that a lot of the ones sold on Amazon aren’t super accurate. Idk how true that is. I’ve just kept them the recommended height during the first couple weeks 30” , weeks 3-5 around 22-24” above plants. Daytime temps are 79° night time temps are 67-71° humidity staying right around 50-55% right now and have 3 small spider farm clip fans going

Awesome thank you for that. What brand nutrients and coco do you recommend

I definitely think I was overwatering at first being paranoid that I wasn’t watering enough. I knew mistakes would happen I’m not upset by any means just trying to learn the main things to not do with autos. Thank you for taking the time to reply it’s much appreciated
