Hey there community! :)

Take a look at my BubbleGum Auto

Is it getting to pre-flower or it has deficiency of nutrients? Salad green center.
 
No that is the healthy part. Looking good though! Good job getting started!!!

The bigger leafs with edges curled down and being too dark of green is less healthy. Cannabis is a bright vibrant green. Not that the over done nitrogen is that bad becasue it aint bad... and the plant will not slow down on that account. That is a minor overdosing that wont matter and the rest of the plant will never remember unless it continues.

That said you are not far from likely being root bound ...if you grow it fast. That may cause a long list of problems. Are you planning to bloom in that pot?

If you have a decent mix in there, in the right sized pot, then you should not need to add much more than water until bloom, if the pot is sized correctly. That plus silica, maybe some cal / mag depending on the water situation. And if you are running a great soil some molasses product for the microbes.

But you can also run soil mixes that run out of nutes in days and then need to be constantly feed.

Some people mix up stuff in the soil that is recommended for other plants but not for cannabis.

You are likely somewhere in between.


Anyway what you are asking about is just growing fast and not enough chlorophyll built up yet. Take a look at it tomorrow and I bet it looks healthy.

Almost time to top it it looks like? :hmmmm:
 
VilliageIdiot, thank you so much for your time replying to me!

Good morning to my BubbleGum:

I am feeding with soft fertilizer NPK 6-3-6, planning to get some with more phosphorus for blooming.

Thing is that i am growing in PC Case so i don't have much space and that's why i chose autoflowering, cause i can swear i read somewhere that if autoflowering plant's roots reach bottom and bound it'll trigger flowering. For me it's not about quantity, i just want a couple of grams to smoke on evenings and the idea that it's my own stuff would be amazing!
Never thought about topping, cause LST and Topping is stressing autoflower plants too much, at least that's what i found in a few articles.
I have one sprout of regular seed, nirvana's Ak-48 and i am planing to transplant it outdoors on 4.20, dunno if getting my bubblegum outside is a good idea. Ye that would give more space to grow, but if some crazy stuff happens and it gets too windy or too cold at night... I was planning to actually start and finish in the pot you see in pics. There is people who actually grow in solo cups without a problem.
 
One more thing - i noticed that my baby is acting strangely, after 10-15mins of lights on she is actually trying to "clap" with top node leafs :D

LST and topping are way less stress than being root bound. Being root bound, especially in a small pot, can be devastating.

There are many easy ways to induce flowering early in an auto better than letting it become root bound. But that is a side issue.


Autos are for experts. A photo period plant you can control the the size and bloom very precisely. You can keep it out of bloom until the plant is precisely the right size and start bloom precisely when it is ready. An auto plant you can not control as easily when it will flower. The nutrient requirements are vastly different. The list goes on and on but in general most peoples advice are based on growing normal plants and many things are different... so always mention that when asking. Or better yet start a journal and have Auto experts come help you.


If you want to grow in a compact place efficiently then pruning and training will be your main method of doing so.

Autos can be trained just fine. It is not recommended to prune them but you are in such a small size that it doesn't matter. Your plant likely will outgrow that space if left to itself and properly taken care of. It likely will need to be cut in half to fit in a PC grow before you start bloom. Cutting it back when done correctly will likely also double your yield.

The plant, if grown correctly, will double min and likely triple in height after bloom starts, if all is healthy.

I don't know about PC grows though. I can't help much.

:goodluck:
