okay cool
i just measured the height and it's now 1,5cm
i believe it should be taller by now, but lets wait and see!

also a question for those experienced with autoflowers, should i keep the light cycle 18-6 or change it to 12-12 when they start flowering? or run the lights 24/7 however i don't think this would be the best for plants since they also need to rest (right?)

thanks for getting back to me,
did you mean to switch it for 20/4 when it starts flowering?

Cool cool. Lookin' better than my first retard of a plant as a sproutling. (I hope she didn't hear that....) "No your pretty just the way you are sweety."

I had some heat problems (85-95f for 2 days) early on that killed 1/5 of my seedlings and made the first one to sprout grow all funky.

glad i spotted it before it got a chance to get any worse!

Ive read a few threads where pineapple express autos didnt flower under 18/6 meaning they ended up being photoperiod plants not autos. So thats something to watch out for.

Hey thanks for the information!
do you happen to know where i can find these threads? so i can know when to switch the lights then (mine are barneys which i have heard good things about and yeah dont think they would false promote a product)
i have seen other seeds that also go by the name pineapple express but are not autoflowers

more help is greatly appreciated !

Im growing g13 pineapple express right now and 2 weeks into 12/12 its starting to get a little fruity small.

They were on this forum but I didnt save the links sorry. Try typing it into the search bar. Im sure you will be good but if after 4 weeks or so under 18/16 you dont see buds forming 12/12 might be needed. The only auto I have grown was green house seeds green-o-matic which had buds forming around 20 days from seed at 8" tall.
