Auto Seeds Transiberian update Day 12

Hello all.. hope all is well.

Here is my auto seeds transiberian autoflower on day 12.

Is she looking ok to you all?

I was having some rusty discolored leaves which had me thinking cal-mag was needed.

I just gave her the tiniest bit of fox farm grow big and some molasses and epsom salts.

She is not tall at all but is getting wider rather than tall.


How does she look to you all?

I'm hoping she will start gaining height soon. I grow under a 180 watt ufo led and once I see white pistils I add 4 40 watt 2700k cfl's.



The seedling/baby is a photo period fem. nirvana blue mystic i got as a freebie. Im just gonna veg/transplant and top her till auto is done then switch ufo to 12/12.


I hope everything turns out ok with this auto. If I run into issues I wanna fix them instantly cause I know with autos you dont have recovery time which effects yield.


thoughts? things wrong with plant???

any pointers would be great.


heres some pics.

What kind of soil are you using?what are your temps and humidity? what size/ type of pot is she in? How close is the light? How much are you watering her? What's the pH of your water? I wouldn't recommend feeding so early

Discoloration can come from the leaves contacting wet soil ....
I would shitcan the cups and CAREFULLY transplant into a 3 gallon pot ,
Only water ( lightly around stem ) NOT THE WHOLE CONTAINER.

Autos are fickle and anything that can stress them will bite you in the ass.
Even transplanting sometimes stunt them. That is why i always START in the final container size and just let the plant grow. If you are using good soil there is no reason to feed right now .... The plant will only feed on what it needs ( sometimes there are strains that are heavy feeders ) but most just thrive on the soil medium without adding anything.

By allowing a large pot from the start it can root as much as it wants ( it has a limited veg stage - 4 to 5 weeks BEFORE sexing and preflowering ) so letting her get her " legs " going without overwatering or overfeeding is a must. They are " plug and play " plants ....
Just plant seed , give her good light ( 20/4 - 18/6 ) , and start feeding at flower stage and you are golden. Most growers throw shade on AUTOS , i love them .... I can plant and let them do their thing until i see the transition into flower and add a little bloom / boost and that's it. Overthinking these results in shitty , low performance plants.

I also pop seeds in rockwool ( then plant ) or Rapid Rooter ( i like these cuz i can premoisten with light seedling water ) wait for taproots to show then place in soil or hempy bucket.

Mist occasionally instead of overwatering.


Peace

I grew that exact auto last year, mine was very branchy, grew about 1m tall with over 3 oz of 1 plant, frosty plant, your whole fans end up covered in tricombs

sorry guys.. the one in the tiny cup is a nirvana photoperiod blue mystic.. that transiberian was put in 5 gallons of soil since day 1.. its a cheap organic potting mix that I doctor'd up with bone meal , black kow cow manure compost , dolomite lime I then cut that with 50% perlite.. its 1/2 potting mix 1/2 perlite.

disregard that little plant that is just a photo strain im vegging along side this auto.


Plushberry.. 3 oz and 3 foot tall plant.. awesome... with what light though? I doubt my 180 watt ufo could make a 3 foot , 3 oz plant but maybe... I keep the light 10 inches above top of plant.. seems to work perfect right there.


I've heard great things about transiberian so thats why I got it.

Buzbuddha - yes brother I germ'd the seed directly into 5 gallons of soil.. I learned last time to not transplant an auto.



HansBud - she is in 5 gallons of cheap organic potting mix I doctor'd up. Day temps - 78 at highest and night temps 70-74.. humidity stays around 60%... she is in a 5 gallon bucket with a ton of holes drilled in bottom and up sides.. 10 inches from 180 watt ufo... I water every 5 days... I have not once in my life ph'd anything in a soil grow... not that it matters but anytime I water her I bubble the water for 24-36 hours with an airstone.

thanks for the help ya'll
