She is about four, weeks old, planted 11/25/2020
Gave nutes before but will lay off now. Should I still hold off for four weeks? Wondering because shes been in the soil about that…

I would say start next week at 1/4 strength and work up from there. You got this!

Could probably start in a week or 2 then as most people say FFOF is good for 6 weeks but I usually started feeding it after 4, and start low.
Another question, @Hellraiser
I never have run off from the holes in the bottom of my pot. No water in the dish at all… I am scared of over watering. I figured this girl is only about 3-3 1/2 weeks old I don’t think she needs so much water to the point there’s run off, can someone please enlighten? Terrified to over water.

Also, my birthday is January 14th, maybe I will start using nutes again on them on that date. It’s about two weeks out. Should I add calmag to my water for the next feedings until jan 14th when I introduce nutrients again? I have been using Poland Spring water.

Yeah watering to runoff can be a problem with small plant in big pot so would hold off on that for a while.

Wouldn’t hurt to start giving some CalMag, I used to use 3ml/gal to just keep the levels up.

Man, you really are a ton of help. Are you a moderator? Shit, if not, apply.
Anyway, another question… of course. When can I start defoliating?
Also, would there be any reason for my plant leaves to have like little traces of white specs
Almost looks as if it may be dust from something the can was kicking up. Not too concerned, she looks healthy still as yall said.
Nevermind, I just watched a video on defoliation. Think i’ll hold off and master LST before hopping into defoliating any plant, let alone an autoflower.
No, not a moderator and don’t want to be (been there, done that on other forums). I just like to help people grow weed, don’t want to be an enforcer of forum rules.
A little early for defoliating, just let it grow for a while first, don’t want to mess with autos too much, might trigger early flowering.
The white dust could be perlite dust or perhaps you’re using a misting humidifier whith tap water which would get white dust everywhere from the minerals.

The plant I’m actually talking about defoliating is not an auto.And she’s about 4 weeks old. My auto is just a baby girl. Anywho im going to tag you in a post of the bag seed i’m talking about and what I did to her, she’ll prob die 
So i’m mixing this Sour Auto journal with the Lemon Skunk bag seed I got going.
She was planted 11/25/20 give or take a day. She was going beautiful and at a nice pace,
I fed her with nutes at about two weeks old at half or less of the suggested dose and she didn’t take too well but didn’t take too bad? She was still growing… as it’s marks about a month of her growth she has four sets of leafs and I decided to top her yesterday and what a disaster… I clipped the top along with the right leaf so after discussing with some users on ILGM I decided to clip the other leaf and even her out… Now let her recover they say… well I topped her again two or three more times just because I want to see how she takes it and it’s my first grow, I want to learn as much as I can through experience. Will post pictures in the next couple days of both the Lemon Skunk and the Sour Kush Auto
Both got a little bit of water today, nothing serious just enough to wet their whistles. With a tad of Calmag/iron mixed in with the poland spring water as it has been testing a ph of 6.2-6.5.
I brought the light up a few inches to try and promote stretching…
So after leaving the shells skin on the SKA for over a week an half and using half of the suggested nutes (even the grow shop owner said to do this from week1) the plant had definitely been stunted and I was pretty sure there was no saving it and it wasn’t going to grow but here is a picture of her now. This is an autoflower on day 17 after grower error… unfortunately my mistake took a good portion of her life and she probably won’t yield what she could of. From what I read two weeks is critical in autos but we are going to grow her out!!
Sour Kush Auto
Day 17:
Here’s an update on the Lemon Skunk Bag Seed (NOT AUTO)
About two days ago, I tried to top her and I FIM’d, oh well. I have began LST and it is day 31 for this girl, anyway here’s a picture, awkward view but it’ll do for now til next week!
(You can’t really see it but she is bent over and tied down to the pot that way the undergrowth can grow up towards the light to create and even canopy)
PLEASE TELL ME IF ANYTHING I AM DOING OR SAYING IS WRONG, PLEASE. I need all the help I can get.

Ordering a humidifier but added a vaporizer to the closet space, it was around 23-26RH and with the vaporizer iv’e managed to boost it to around 40-55% depending if the door is open or closed. Should help a bit and hopefully see a little more life from these girls in better conditions…
