    Default I think my autoflowers arent growing as they should

    Hi guys,
    So here is my trouble - I have germinated and planted in 9Liter pots (2.4gall) auto northern lights and auto blueberry last Monday (30.04). Now for paramount reasons i keep them in the pots in a room at night and get them out on a terrace where they get that nice, free, natural sun all day long (currently getting slightly over 10 hrs of direct sunlight per day). However i am worried about their size, they seem to be quite short and the blueberry seems a bit droopy to me (am i overwatering? its my first time growing). There also appears to be a root coming out of the top of the soil near my blueberry, it might be just a small alien plant though as i used a mix of soil and natural fertilizer, but not sure. Im leaving some photos with a credit card for scale and links to the seller if more info is needed. Also is there any chance that these babies will be ready by the end of July? I will be eternally grateful for any help and tips. Thanks!

    Thanks man!! Anyway im more worried about the light as they get about 10-11 hrs of direct sunlight and then 4-5 of indirect one. Ive been told that they would require at least 18hrs in order to achieve average results in yield and quality, its gonna be a real downer if i end up with just like 20-30 g per plant this way and with thc levels that are way low.

    It's too young to flower, it takes 3/4 weeks to reach maturity before flower can begin regardless of light cycle. Anything over 14 hours should keep it out of flowering. The light you're giving it now is all good, and they look happy.

    Autos need at least 18hrs of sunlight. I ran my autos first two weeks 24hr sunlight then after the first two weeks I ran them at 20hrs sunlight and 4 hours darkness for the remainder of the grow. Ten hours is not enough
