Is it because extreme heat we are having ive raised light .the heat causing low humidity and high VPD or is it mag. Deficiency?

Welcome to the forum.
It is extremely unlikely that there would be a deficiency at this point.
Can you elaborate on what the specific concern you have? Your seedlings look perfectly healthy.

Welcome aboard.
Treat auto the exact same as your photo experience. Only differences really are we want huge veg very fast. Little to ZERO stress in that stage to not trigger the ruderalis. They can be finicky and flower early no fault of yours. Smaller… used to be weaker, but, man that has turned around. Can be run on 12/12 18/6 or any combination you like pretty much start to finish. Mid summer I run them 5/3 for my central air to be able to keep up. Can be run with photo start to finish. Flip photo and the auto just shrug. Have fun with the auto. To get great results some previous photo knowledge is something I suggest and you have it . Just my take on those aggravating boogers
I am organic myself. Too lazy to measure/test etc anymore. Expect a slightly smaller yield. Possible lower THC. Super smelly flavorfull flower. No phing within a few points either way. No runoff or ppm check. The key to growing organic living soil is soil life. Keep the life strong and vibrant the plant follows. Slower recovery from issues but they are much more rare than synthetics. As in overfeeding/under, Ph issues.

Nah, im starting to believe thats bro science. Been comparing numbers with a hydro grow and numbers are very close to each other. I love growing organically. The only large yields ive gotten are with photos and training. Another thing with autos if growing organically is to feed half of what you would photos at first and see if she asks for a full dose. Same with watering. Ive noticed that all the autos ive ran drink less and eat less…
Oh and just to add. Ive run autos full term, 1 transplant into 10 gal fabric bags and let er rip tater chip. Thats with charged soil tho.

I am judging by my results actually Chitty. Always full grows going on in 1 of my tents and usually mixed photo/auto some same strain. Just what I see. Probably wrong but I tend to stick with what I see hands on.

I mightve read that wrong brother. Are you saying that autos vs photos of the same strain the autos tend to have a lower THC?
That i can believe.

Storm may my person recommend growing the Runtz strain. My seeds were purchased from ILGM. Most potent AutoFlower I’ve ever grown. See my pics under Runtz

Thank you , ⁸yes ive strictly went by reading the plant today is day 7 for trop. Cookies, gorilla punch, strawberry pie and original skunk and i increased lightning and they have taken off just in hours they are all praying can tell i have 2 that drink more others. What i was having trouble with starting seeds in such big containers. So much more control in a dome transplant threw the stages.
