HELP! Day 10, noticed tips turning brown

Ok, I understand, then what can I do to prevent pests? I read a lot of blogs saying that neem oil is harmless to cannabis plants, and it’s cheap too. I’m not going to use it if it’s harmful for them.
 
Depends what pests you're likely to experience and that varies hugely by location.

Just monitor your plants closely. My pests were predominantly fungus gnats, white fly and snails, all pretty easy to manage & treat and not too harmful for the plants either.
 
Also never use neem oil on your buds, it causes some folks major issues. It also leaves a bad taste behind.
Look into predator bugs such as ladybugs and praying mantis etc..
 
Agree with @bluey

Unless your plants are infested don't spray them with anything. Follow cleanliness protocols so you don't have to spray your plants or deal with an infestation.

If you're still going to do it start with something mild like insecticidal soap that you can make yourself for pennies. It'll probably not affect your plants much and will keep pests from getting a foothold in your garden.
 
I have another question, when do autoflowers start growing the most? My biggest fear is that my plant will stay small and start flowering when it’s too small..
 
AAAaarrgghhh!!! My question is not when will it grow the most. My question is always, 'Why isn't it growing faster?' But that is because I am ginger and inherently impatient.
Once you get past the three week mark you should see the plant takeoff. Me, personally, after that three weeks it all goes the same.
 
I noticed that the sides of the leaves started to curl, should I worry about it? I’m sorry if I’m being annoying, I overthink a lot and that can’t let me sleep at night

As I said before, heat stress and full sun on those hot days will do that for sure. Lucky it's not fried.
 
Ok I put on the second layer of shade cloth, I think one layer wasn’t enough because it is thin. Anything that I need to do more for cooling down the plant?
 
A seedling that size with those high temps I'd have inside on a window sill during the heat of the day and only put it out morning and late afternoon until the hot spell had passed.
 
There are some that take up to 8 weeks before they start to flower. The sooner it starts to flower the shorter it will be in general.
 
I find autos do not do well outside of their comfort range, to hot to cold to dry to wet negatively affect these girls.
 
Ok so I got another question, should I start feeding her nutrients now, or I should wait to see some deficiencies?
The biobizz nutrient schedule says that the vegetative stage is covered by the nutrients that the soil has, or that applies for photoperiod plants?
 
When we talk about a soil being 'hot' that means it is chock full of nutrients. As you water, the runoff will flush, and roots will remove nutrients so it cools off. Usually, the nutrients are meant for vegging plants and flowering nutrients are needed when it comes time.
Listen to what Biobizz has to say.​
Your next question is when will your plant start flowering. I go with 5 weeks in an auto. It probably starts earlier, but that's what I go with. Take a look at the GWE website about sexing a plant. That will show you what girl parts look like for comparison on your plant.
 
Yes the soil will have nutrient but I still like to feed at 1/4 or 1/2 strength anyways to preserve the naturally occurring nutrients and allow the breakdown process to continue without tapping into it much once I have 4 or 5 nodes. You currently have 1 so for now I would practice how to water correctly and allow the soil to feed your plant but once your plant has 4 or 5 nodes I think it would be best to start feeding it with the nutrient of your choice.

Can you get through veg with only water? Probably but I would hate to flip a plant in soil that is low in nutrient.
 
I understand, my plant now is growing like 4 new leaves, and they look healthy, if I haven’t made a mistake so far when watering I guess I’m watering the right way, every 1-2 days because it’s really hot. Thank you!
 
Hello, what could cause these leaves to turn brown, they feel crispy too.

I'm going to try not to sound too technical: Shit happens.
Those tips are probably from the issues you were having at the beginning of your grow. I have never had a grow without at least some tips being browned. The rest of the leaves look fine.
Something for the future. What you have is old damage and there is nothing to be done. The tips are brown and dry. If they were light green, yellow, or some other necrotic looking color, it would be new damage you can have a bona fide worry storm about.

I never fed her nutrients because I was scared to not overfeed her, should I feed her only veg nutrients or should I add flowering nutrients too? I have Biobizz bio-grow, bio-bloom, top max and calmag. I’m saying that because she is showing some pistils on two nodes, is that pre-flower?
