Outdoor Autoflowering Lemon Skunk.

More light, bigger pots, and some good nutrients. Check out Super Soil.

It's best to keep it simple. Most autoflowers don't need much fertilizer. What you can do (and i personally would) is to maximize its exposure to light daily, plant in the ground if possible, and you can use unsulphured molasses as a natural nutrient. I don't think its a good idea to mess with fertilizer at this point even if you wanted to because they already had trouble.

So if i decide to transplant, which im going to, it would not stunt the growth or minimize health??
Also, i pinched some branches off the larger one and used some rooting hormone (powder) and replanted. any chance?

As long as you are careful not to damage the roots it should be fine. You can just take the whole thing including the soil to transplant it that way you avoid disturbing the roots. I don't think you can really clone autoflowering plants unless you do it early on. Personally i would just leave them alone let them do the best they can with least amount of stress as possible.

Thanks brother.
the cuttings look like they are standing up a bit more.

I also had a question about topping while in veg.
I found the tallest point on it and pinched off the very tippy top where the leaves develop.
that should help right?

if its an auto just let it grow no point in topping imo

someone gimme a little rep for my effort lol

thank you good sir!
