DWC Auto Flower Question

How to you account for the shorter nutdrient schedule for autos? The veg time is so short. I'm using the time schedule that I observed with the wifes outdoor plant. Seem like it was approx. 2 weeks and I noticed the pistils. With that time line the nutes almost have to be upped in placce.
 
RagWeed, I don't understand the question; can you rephrase? Shorter nute schedule seems normal for autos cuz they're faster.
 
I think he's asking how to revise the schedule for autos. If your talking about tho one on the site (https://www.growweedeasy.com/wp-con...eed-General-Hydroponics-nutrient-schedule.pdf) then i would cut out week 4 really. If you see pistols and you are sure it is done stretching then i would think you would be on week six as it dosnt need as much FloraGro for veg growth. 2 weeks old seem too short of time to get pistols though even for autos. My experience has been it takes 3-4 weeks but i havent done auto's for a while. Have you been giving it an 18/6 light schedule or 12/12?
 
The problem I'm having is the bride is not sure when she threw the seeds into the pots, from her date, it would be approximately two weeks, she planted somewhere around the 1st of August, according to her. Hence my confusion on nute schedule. it is not approx. 40 days old, if the time line is correct. I will know better after my indoor grow. Wish I could show the full grow, but to much identifiable information in the shot. Will move and update.

The dates made no sense, I kicked the wife off her computer and found this picture which sets the date back a bit. my best guess are that these are about one week and a half, maybe two weeks old. makes more sense, but still is pretty quick.

My last grow had two autos I received by mistake so I never need realized they were autos. After about the 5th week, they just looked different and 40 days after germination they were changing. Hard to believe but they were in the jars curing 5 - 6 weeks before the photo crops. Frankly, it changed mind on autos ... we’re friends now
 
I'm beginning to be a convert, it takes room to keep mothers, start clones etc. Auto's seem to be much simplier (If results are consistent) which is a huge selling point for the auto's once you select a mother. My first auto grow, we shall see
 
That's exactly the schedule I was referring to. I found an earlier picture that backs the date up possible two weeks, your recommendation makes sense with that new date.
This is my first Jack Herer indoor, so using 1/3 of the recommended dosage (Last years grow started at full recommend strength of other product). I have two grow bays that I use to veg in one and bloom in the other, plan now is to start a second seed and apply lessons learned from the first.
