My first grow
NL Auto week 6 in soil+perlite+coco should i ph like soil or coco?
CLF 40w.x6 light on 20/4
Maybe Phosphorus deficientcy?
Are they too many leaves? Should i defoliation them?
Can i get it better for now in short time before harvest?
Thank you so much
 
I've never grown auto-flowers but they look fine to me. I think you should relax.

But maybe somebody else will chime in.
 
I think they look pretty good for only week 6 under CFLs! I don't see any evidence of a phosphorous deficiency. As for your pH, if you are using soil in any capacity, I would use the soil pH levels or maybe a compromise between the high end for hydro and low end for soil so maybe around 6.2 or 6.3 would be good. I wouldn't defoliate the plants unless you are comfortable doing it. You could read more about it here: http://www.growweedeasy.com/defoliation but I would be very careful with it. You could try doing what I do and tucking the larger leaves under the bud sites and smaller leaves. That seems to help a bit. When do you plan on harvesting them? If you wanted to speed things up you could try adding more light but other than that it's all about patience.
 
Defolitate - on the inside of the plants, cut the larger fan leaves off. Not all of them. Will allow for better light penetration as well as let the air circulate better. You want to do it now cuz if you wait as the plant gets bushier, mold could set in. Mold happens when the air doesn't move around much.
 
Maybe it's the CFLs. They are your lowest yielding light after all. Sorry to piss in anyone's cereal. Just trying to be realistic.

I also have no experience with CFLs so I'll stfu now. Best of luck no matter what!
