My auto flower is too small and already started flowering

“Pot size is a very important aspect for your autoflowering plant’s size and determines the limit to where she can grow. If the pot is too small your plant will become root-bound (this means the roots don’t have any more space to grow) affecting nutrient intake. Your plant won’t be able to breathe properly and is more likely to die or yield almost nothing if you don’t transplant it quickly.”

But it’s probably pH. Right?

Tell me about root bound plants in coco?

I’ll switch to BioBizz light mix, saw good reviews on it and it’s organic!
I will start a new one on Monday, and I’m wondering,
Do I, just for the beginning, put it under “normal sunlight” near a window or just right away with with grow light?
BioBizz Light Mix and Spiderfarmer SF1000 are perfect choices. You can go 2 weeks without feeding, although I would advise you use BioBizz RootJuice from the beginning.
Below is my first ever grow, both autos. I used the above mentioned soil and light.
Also put them directly under the light but lower it and dim it to 20% in the beginning

Sounds as simple as the rest, awesome. Are you going no till? In a month I'll have enough used soil to recharge. I'm running a perpetual harvest in 2 and 3 gallon pots. Maybe you could give me some tips here? I have the technical data but, not this experience, yet :eyesmoke:...stay cool..
Sorry to bring this back up from page one. But I just saw it.

Plus they’re arguing anyway. :bigjoint:

The last time I chopped the plant and added 4-4-4 and bone meal. I watered it every once in a while to keep it wet. After a month or so I ripped the stalk out and transplanted into from a 1 gallon container. Smooth sailing since. Just keep adding the 4-4-4. I have yet to start a new plant in this but I don’t see why not.

I’m done buying soil

As mentioned... a simple upgrade in light will pay off very quickly as by others .... A good entry board like SF 1000 ( spider farmer ) , HLG ( Rspec kit ) and similar tech. You want light that will give that plant a much better grow.

SF 1000 V2 led board - Samsung Diodes / IR and Meanwell driver ( suited for 2x2 but expandable with another via jumper wire included ) So you can daisy chain multiples to suit your tent / space size PLUS hit that 35w/sqft or better you need to get the goods.

I finished a review on this board for @Spiderfarmerled and am quite pleased with it.

Does it put much heat off? I use 3-2000 watt Sosen/Samsung gives a little heat but not much

No I’m very sure you’re the genius who basically scoffed at the idea of too small a container for coco. Lol. But you just keep on keeping on.

Newbies reading this - don’t repeat his mistakes.
Wtf are you talking about?

Tell me why then since you obviously have all the answers and you’re the one with the tiny plant asking for help. Lol.
I don't have any small plants nor did I ask for help. Relax, go smoke...whoa

An update for whoever is still interested.
As soon as I changed the light, the plan stretched and grew like a mf. (Considering how small she was)
She has buds everywhere, in every corner and looks very healthy as well.

light is a huge factor in growing the plant!
she looks like a small bomb of buds:bigjoint::bigjoint::weed:
