Plant growing slow (auto flowering)

My first grow auto flower sour deisel is about 3weeks old is this normal

It’s a little behind. It is often due to overwatering. A seedling should only get a couple ml of water a day. Overwatering leads to stunting. Let that peat pot dry out before watering again. Cannabis does far better in dry soil vs wet soil.

Thank you so very much for your advice

Hey buddy im just curious about that light is it a grow light and will it put enough out to go from start to finish??

Its a grow light from lowes for indoor plants … I have it set for 16 hrs a day 11am-3am is this ok?

It is a 3watt 186 lumens full spectrum

@Tim6
I don’t think it’s going to work very well but I’m no expert. however I give you a A+ for effort. And you did come to the right place for information and support.
You can checkout my first indoor grow in a closet for helpful info and look at other growers grows here too that will definitely help you be successful. Good lighting is key along with a few other items. Good luck and happy growing.

All I can tell you us that autos are autos and they are on their own schedule. They are gonna flower whether you are ready for them to or not and once their internal clock says stop, that’s what they are gonna do. My 1st attempt I planted 4 and the harvest off 3 of them was 1 Doobie each and the 4th never flowered at all. That’s the thing about Autos, if you mess them up there’s zero time to correct anything. I am trying again now with 3 Autos and 7 Photos. I like the Photis better because I do tend to screw shiz up and need that time to fix them. They just take sooooo long. Good luck to you!

Thank you for the info

Sorry Dude. Don’t give up. I was about to and somebody told me not to dare and I didn’t and am having a better run this time out. You will too.

Ok can I use the same pot if this one doesn’t make it or should I just start over with a new pot I also purchased a 300 watt grow light

Awesome! What kind of light did you get? Idky you can’t use the same pot. I would probably rinse it out and use new dirt or whatever medium you use. If you hadn’t started feeding yet you could probably even use the same dirt after allowing it to dry out. Looks like a good little bag. I am still fairly new, only my 3rd grow, with one doing ok, one not so much, and the one I’m on now, and I’m sure one of these other guys will chime in with lots of great advice. I think with the new light and positioning it well, however the manufacturer recommends for each stage, and keeping your temp and humidity good, you’ll be alright. It’s just a learning thing. If growing in dirt, remember that it’s best to under water than to over water and when they are seedlings, and even into the start of vegetating, don’t water close to the stem. Only spray it a couple of squirts or something. Also, you might want to start it in a solo cup or similar and then pot up when it gets some bigger. That way if you need to, you can put some kind of dome over her to help with rH when she’s small.
