I seen this with GDP photo this spring, I tossed them all, they just never did anything but set there and use electricity..

Looks like nute burn too me. The soil is to hot for this plant.
and this is why it’s stunned in the growth maybe

[Tojo420]

Ok that is guys so u think if I transplanted into better soil it would do better. Or should I transplant back into a solo cup to nurture back?

[CaptainWiese91]

No I would start another one, if you have more seeds.
3 weeks for this plant, I should be starting flower this time

Plants need nutes. If your soil does not have any then and you arent feeding it thats an issue. Since it's an auto i'd toss and start over. At this point there is no saving since you cant veg longer to correct issues. At 3 weeks it should start to flower soon and it definitely doesnt have the structure to give any meaningful harvest. My advice? Read some of the tutorials on the main site, get some nutes and decent soil and try again. Also what wattage is your light? typically a t5 wont produce very good buds unless you have a several of them.

Couldn’t the soul be too hot also ?
It looks really burned.
But totally agree -this auto cant be saved, should starts it flowering soon.

[Tersky]

I had not considered that but possibly. Potting mix is extremely vague so yeah it could have been too hot. Regardless, it doesnt like it from the looks of it.

You can grow OK under T5s. I did it for all the grows that the state did not need to know about. You will get just OK results and only be able to grow about two decent plants under a single panel though. T5s are awesome to have though for seedlings and clones and for stuff you don't want to grow very fast.

I agree toss it or move it outside out of the way, tell it live or die and maybe water it, drop some fresh seed.
I think it is bad genetics, or what we called a cull (and pull). I would like to try GDP again, but the seed I would do it with is to costly.
IF my soil was "to hot" not one of the other strains objected, so I dont see that as the issue. Nor do I see not enuf nutes being the issue.
One could remove it from the soil and look at the root and see what issues that may reveal. IF the PH is way off it may not be able to grow roots into the soil. Caffeine/coffee will stunt autos a great deal and not good for any plant. I am not closed minded, but I do think its bad genetics.

[Tersky]

I hadn't considered it being a genetics thing but i am still on my first cup of joe. True if others have had issues with GDP in the same way then i am inclined to agree that it might be a genetics thing.

Looks burnt to me

[Tojo420]

Ok thanks guys I'll just toss it and start again
