First time grower, so I’m sure it’s me.
Planted Amnesia Haze AF the second week of Oct and “Melissa” is only 6” tall. Is there anything I can do to save her or do I just need to be patient?

Autos kinda do what they do. As she is going into flower, its kinda at its potential as is. Love her and she’ll get u some nice nuggs.
Thats why I grow photos. Much more control over when they go into flower and the ability to keep in veg u til ur ready to flip. Sorry charlie…

All it took was a couple of those 6" plants for me to decide not to grow autos. I am planning a run with some Siberian ruderalis once I acquire the genetics. But they will be for CBDs…

Looks more like a bud than a plant.

Yeah that soil looks awfully “chunky” and I don’t see any kind of drainage additive like perlite or vermiculite. Very important to have a loose, well drained soil/medium.

As @kellydans stated on the medium . Looks dry as well. Fox Farm Coco Loco is a great coco medium to start with. It’s amended with nutrients and beneficial bacteria that’ll feed your plant for 4-5 weeks with PH’d water at 5.8-6.0

Oh man I’m against cocoloco it was not good for me. Cocoloco should be treated as a soil not coco also will get better growth out of it from my understanding. I did a good wash and rest everything in the cocoloco also and still nothing but issues with it. Ppms were all over the place oh could not get right it was a mess from the start. Ended up transplanting after a week in cocoloco and plant looking dead I mixed ffof and cocoloco like a 50 50 mix and it went well from there. After that mishap I switched over to canna coco bricks and it is the best switch I have done so far beside switching from blurps to hlg lights lol

Likewise on the light brother. I’ve had great success with coco loco from germ to harvest. I like the ability for constant feed and watering. I’ve grown in soil and prefer the cleanliness of coco over soil. I did mix HF and coco but prefer not too for PH reasons. I use the coco loco mainly and auto pots because of my work schedule, up at 3:30 for plant maintenance and then off to work by 4:30 and home by 6:00-7:00. Makes life easier for me and especially the plants . I’ve heard nothing but great stuff about Canna and will most likely venture down that road when I can get more free time. Thanks for the input Brother
Hi @ShortyGal welcome to the community!
I had one of my plants do what yours has done. Grew two inches and started flowering. I kept it as a novelty, framed it in a shadow box 
. Once it started flowering the plant didn’t grow much. Keep her! Buds are cute and a great learning experience.

I grew 2 midget autos myself and it sucks. Now I plant more than I need and cull stragglers

S.W.I.M. someone who isn’t me🙃
I started with three. The first one got overwatered. The second one was growing like a beast and then all of a sudden one day it was as if someone had stood over it with a magnifying glass and burned it up, and then there’s Melissa here. She’s the only one that made it. Might rename her to Tyrion Lannister.
