Diesel Ryder grow!!

[should]

I believe they are on their forth or fifth week and my schedule started at 24/0 with cfls and now their at 18/6 with a hps. their so small because 1: their auto flower and 2: i nuteburned Them as seedlings and stunted their growth (not to mention the 90 degree temps they have to grow in). but yup so far so good, one of my other diesel Ryder seedling sprouted and is pretty stretched but no worries. the other one never sprouted so i put a nice bag seed in its place (which also stretched). heres some pics...btw i just nuted today

Should, I am looking foreward to new pictures of your grow. You are about a month ahead of me so I can look into my future through yours(G) I've got the same problem with hot weather yesterday it was in the nineties here and I am surprise at how warm the CFLs amke in the GH. How did you get the nute burn? I was thinking until they are around 4 weeks before feeding them.

I got the original nute burn by putting them in "hot" soil, but i got the new nute brn because i started them off with half strength nutes when i guess i shouldve done 1/4th. but as soon as they got them they all look 10 times better and healthier. heres some new pics...

Should, They do look like they are recovering do you think the nute burn stunted their growth? What size are their pots? I like to use those jiffy pots to prevent problems with nute burns from hot soil. I use their seedling starter soil in the jiffy pots I figure by the time the roots grow through the pot they are strong enough to handle soil with nutes.

Hi, shame about the nute burn and the stunted growth... not every grow can goto plan, this I know all too well! What height are the plants currently?

If they are flowering already you should just bombard them with flowering light and get the best you can and get onto a new grow asap. All the best.

lunarose- I do think the nute burn stunted them about a week and a half of vegatative growth, i also think its because its been at a stedy 90 degree temp in the room that stunted them so much, but theyre about 5 inches high and very bushy. the pots are pretty small, im not sure of theyre exact height and i can check on them until tomorrow, but their not big at all, probably 5 inches high witha radius of 2.5 (just a complete guess). Ill have to try out the jiffy pots next time though.

Firemansam606- i believe theyre about 5 inches tall but seem like their growing now that im giving them the right amount of nutes.

I was looking online about ways to improve the yeild and i saw something about adding Co2 by taking a bottle half filled with water and adding yeast and sugar, but in order for that to help me enough will i need to turn off my vent? because thats not really an option considering temps will get to the 100s. will it be a waste of energy and money to use the co2 genoraters with the vent on?

Should, So far I haven't had any problems with the heat and my grow area has been sitting in the nineties who would have thought CFL's could cause so much heat but they do seem happy so I ain't channging anything for now.(G)
I have been reading up on auto flowering strains and it seems that they recommend you start them in a 2-3 gallon pot and not to transplant.

[should]

Oh shit, really?
i guess ill try and transplant them all tomorrow to stop any further damage.

[should]

I actually had time to transplant them so i did real quick, i put them in some pretty big pots with an inch of rocks on the bottom and they look alot more spacious so i hope to see a big growth spurt , i also added the Co2 generator i talked about and i got air blowin in now insted of out which gets the temps down to 82 int he mornin which gives them a break from the heat.
when i transplanted i noticed the roots were allready to the bottom and spreading out, so it looks like i shouldve transplanted them either way. Also the roots looked healthy so i think they should improve soon, but well see.
also... pics to come soon

Edit- BTW the pots i put them in have a 4 inch radious (8 inches across)
