Hi guys,
amp;nbsp;
Looks like my first experience in growing is sad, as most likely I watered them not sufficient or there is too less light (Mars II 400 LED).
Blue dream and Med gom.
Tent 70x70x160.
1pic. 01.04.17 planted;
2.pic 17.04.17 after 17 days, only 4 leaves;
3.pic. 11.05.17amp;nbsp; after 40 days, only 7 cm tall;
4-8.pic 14.05.17amp;nbsp; 2 days without watering and survived only 2 plants;
9-16.pic 21.03.17 Blue dream Auto = 30cm, and Med Gom Auto = 7cm.
amp;nbsp;
So my questions:
lt;ol
lt;liDo I need to switch to flowering cycle and turn my LED to blooming/flowering mode;lt;/li
lt;liAs everything happened so slow, how do you think, is there any chance that there will grow something out of these plants?lt;/li
lt;liAs all of them are Auto, what light cycle should I apply? Since I also have same just planted seeds there as well (as I was skeptical about current plants, I planted some new ones); for new plants light cycle 28/6 is needed right? For flowring ones 12/12? What should I do in my case, as I have both types in one tent?lt;/li
lt;liAs well as, if I have any chance to save all plants (old ones and new ones), what moist level should I keep to satisfy both plant types?lt;/li
lt;/ol
So my main questions is, do I have any chance to save old plants, or better to put them aside and focus on new ones?

Many thanks in advance!
Get the light as close as you can without it being too hot. Make sure not to over water them. Watering too often will stunt growth make sure the soil is pretty light when you water it. If you pick up your container and it feels at all heavy it doesn't need water. Assuming this is in order Leave the light on 24/7 until they start flowering at least. And I'd only go down to 18/6 at most once they start flowering. But autoflowers should not be photosensitive at all meaning light will not affect the flowering cycle. So the more light the more growth in theory. I don't generally grow autoflowers but sometimes I get freebies of auto strains when I order from attitude and I grow them in my veg room under 24/7 light and they get about 2 or 3 feet tall and produce 1 or 2 ounces depending on strain. But under a 600w light.
If your new I'd try a regular strain. Autos can be tricky, unforgiving, and have a higher rate of going hermaphrodite. They need optimal conditions for all parts of their short lives to produce mediocre yeilds. I recommend trying a regular strain. If your growing indoors grow regular and you can probably pull a pound off that little light. If you grew incredible bulk from doctor kripling or pineapple express from g13 seeds. Something rewarding . Autos are for growing outdoors when the days are too long for 12/12 flowering. If you have control then reap the rewards
