Sour 60 donkey dong green

Are my plants small for 2 weeks old they are auto flower. The first two I was having trouble with pH levels, that's baking soda on the first plants leaves, I'm doing all organic,the third one is doing the best but can't figure out why I was having trouble with the first two, because I'm using the same soil for all three plants don't mind the other plants on dishes in the picture there beef steak tomatoes and canulope.I'm using the 18/6 light schedule,would I switch my lights to a 12/12 light schedule since there autoflower or not.

I have sour diesel autos growing now. They’re 5 weeks into flowering. Mine started slow also , but the stem getting sturdier and the roots kept growing and then they took off. I run my light 24/7. Autos, I’ve been told can handle it, the only issue is I seem to have to water a little more often

It looks like there doing nothing to me by eye site, thought I would ask since they look small and I thought auto flower started to flower around two weeks old, but I was wrong guess it depends on the strain.

Mine started flowering at around 4 weeks old and naturally have continued to grow. Mine were not much bigger than that at 2 weeks old Heck, my best plant with the biggest and fattest buds is only around 18-20 inches tall. You are right though, each strain is different. I was just looking at an old post of mine in another forum here on MP and at 1 week they were only an inch tall. If you wanted to you could search my posts on plant height and see mine

I do have a question though I use ph meter,to check my pH,light and moisture. By the moisture level when would you water it from 1-10 ten being soaking wet, I've been watering when my meter reading is between 1-2. When would you water

 

[Steve1]

I have a moisture meter but (to be honest with you) I'm not really sure about it. In the solo cups I would go by weight. Water them and notice how heavy they feel. Then let them dry out and notice that weight.. In their pots, I use my finger and go to the second knuckle. I have one girl that I have to water a little more than the others. She gets a little droopy in between waterings. They need that wet/dry cycle to build the roots.

Ok thank you and I'll use ur method to check water level

 

[thegloman]

Exactly.
Wet and dry weight.
2nd knuckle deep dry? Time to water.

If you are actually growing organic, you should not have to worry about your pH unless it is way way out of whack.

If you tap on my name it will take you to my profile page. The tap postings and scroll through them. Probably towards the bottom of the list. I was concerned about the height. Here are some current pics. 6 1/2 weeks into flower
