well my experience with fem seeds is they seem to be week. they dont grow with the hybred vigor of regular seeds. give it a couple of extra weeks and it should get going

Awful state of affairs with all these wacky autoflowers. It seems that people have nothing but trouble with those.

what size pots are you using? In my experience, if you're using too big of a pot, the plant will focus its energy on growing roots before growing tall.

bongman10 · Sep 20, 2010

its just a small bout 500 ml pot

it went ok until it got its jagged leaves then jus stopped

It sounds like it is just starting slow. I would give it some more time.

Let me be the first to ask.... what type of lighting are you using?

hoss12781 · Sep 23, 2010

My two cents ...

Lighting could definately be a factor. Also as those before me mentioned genetics. The first time I bought autos I got Speedy Gonzales from Flash seeds. I got three fem seeds, one of which germinated and had the same problem yours did (under 700w CFL and 150W HPS). I dubbed him 'retard' as it only grew several inches and produced enough bud for a bowl. The second time around I got some seeds from Short Stuff (auto-assassin and snow ryder). They are now frickin huge and will provide about an oz each.

125 watt 6400k P+G CFL I have a 2700k ready to add wen it gets going. i am growin in coco with a handful of clay pebble in the bottom if that helps thanks

cut off the tips of the serrated leaves and see of that gets them going.
I've seen a few that stopped after the cotyledons opened up and it always worked.

bongman10 · Sep 25, 2010

thanks everyone but over the last few days she has grown a little more and has started to develop the first set of true leaves i think its just a slow mover but i did add a bit of a+b canna coco feed just bout 1/8 recommended dose that might have helpled a bit thanks again everyone ill keep u updated n try n post a pic soon

Some seedlings atend 2 grow tap roots, that will stunt them 4 a while.be sure not 2 give water 2 help them,cause if tap rooted it will drink from the bottom only...My 2 cents.

bongman10 · Sep 25, 2010

right well i have cut bak water n am now only givin in little bits every now n again it seems to be doin better now but still new grower almost so am still experimentin thanks guys

robside · Sep 25, 2010

Oldgrowth, no disrespect but that is a blanket statement that "fem seeds" are weak" here are some pic's of my "fem" seeds and thier progress, from seed till now.

Little Tommy · Sep 27, 2010

I have never had a problem with FEM seeds. I think it depends more on the quality of the breeding and how it is managed by the breeder.

bongman10 · Sep 27, 2010

hello again good news shes doin ook now i think still really slow but jus getting 2nd set of true leaves throuygh however still really small and my pineberry has just popped out of soil so lookin better now thanks for the replies everyone think i just needed to give it more time its in its 3rd week now and still no taller than an inch but oh well thanks people
