We gotta share our imperfect runs same as our perfect ones right? Found a seed in the peanut butter and carmel bud last night while grabbing some photos. Found a few more in other buds too. No nanners and no pollen sacks or seeds on the chatty cathy so Im assuming its just random seeding, still sucks.
I was gonna send the pic off to @Graysin for advertisment purposes and was getting it sized up when I noticed. The seed is huge!

Ok I just purchased the ilgm fertilizer the powder bags it comes with 4 bags I am growing autoflowers and I heard that less is more with nutes for them so I am wondering if you know how much of these I should give my plant yes they do have a chart on the webpage but it’s a little confusing and I think it’s based on photoperiods

And do you think this looks like it still has enough water how deep should I let my soil dry out before watering again

Yes and no. The schedule is designed to be extended or reduced based on your needs. For autos you could likely just follow it week for week. For photos you would just repeat the last week of veg or flower as needed.
1st and formost you will need a ph meter, a tds meter and ph up and/or down to feed your plants. The nutrients can only be taken up by the plant at certain ph levels.
Yes with autos less is more, in general. How much a plant can eat is on an individual plant basis. For your first run I recommend using 1/2 dose straight through, unless they demand more. Force feeding your ladies is an advanced technique so to speak.
Equally important as to how much is when to feed. That answer depends largely on the soil you are using. Some soils come pre ammended with nutrients.
As a rule, when runoff tds is below 1000ppm its time to feed.
This is a tuff question to answer for seedlings. I use a method of doubling to determine watering amounts. I start with 60ml when I plant. Then 3 days later if soil is dry I double to 120ml if not I wait till it is and do 60ml again. A plant your size would use about a cup to start. How dry is easy, fully. Cannabis likes a wet to dry cycle. If the top two inches are dry but the below that isnt, your watering too much for the size plant you have.
From bottom to top.
Cotyledryn (round tiny leaves)
1st leaf (single finger)
2nd leaf (3 fingers)
1st true leaf (5, 7 or 11 fingers depending on strain and phenotype.)
If I had to guess you are talking about the 2nd and 3rd fingers of your 2nd leaf or the first parts of your incoming 1st true leaf.
