Hi. If I understand right, then you want to grow regular feminised seed together with auto seeds in one tent? You already put the seeds in those 3galon pots? I hope you dont make the same mistake as your grow here 
You need to start with smaller pots and after good roots develop then you need to transfer them in to bigger one. generaly you start in small pots like 0.5 litres. then you transfer to 1galon a then in to 3galon pots(3galons is for really big plants tho…I use 1 galon and its just fine for me 
). And you do it so you dont overwater them and have enough oxygen in roots. Its not like outdoor growing where is 36C and full sun, so the pots dry out very quickly.
ANd one rule for growing: You can alwas ADD nutrients, you can always add water, you can always add more light and everything wiil be alright in 48h. But if you overfeed them or too much water or too much light, you put your plants uder stress and they never grow to its full potencial.
LESS IS MORE! Keep growing man

I am only vegging the fems in the auto tent, today i´m setting up another tent (smaller one) for the vegging plants, when the time comes for 12/12 i will have two tents running one in 18/6 and another one on 12/12…
Autos went directly into the 3 gallon pots, but the fem seeds are in cups right now, don´t have 1 gallon pots so they will go into three gallon pots once they need transplanting…
That´s my plan, but can always tweak it here or there, thanks bro.
OK well. But be careful. You dont want to over water them again. The soil has some nutrient at start so add some after they show some deficiency.
I personaly wouldnt grow auto plants in bigger pots than 1galon because they simply dont have so much time to make big root system. they start to flower very soon and dont grow so big as normal plants. you should maybe consider to buy some 1galon pots in my opinion, but Lets see others opinions I am interested as well 
I am setting up my second grow right now, also with auto plants I plan to start the seeds in like 3-4 days. I will make new topic so we can compare to each other

Here is my previous grow if you want to see
With autos, pot size seems to dictate final plant size. I like two gallons, but that’s because I only have 30" in my cab. When a tap root hits bottom, it begins to produce auxins that tell the main cola to stop growing.
If I grow them in small pots they will stay small. These are some that I’m growing in a party cup challenge. They still have another week or two to finish.

It’s a challenge for sure, last time I tried this I killed them in the first three weeeks. Im only doing it for the challenge (contest) on ICMag. These girls are getting watered three times a day now. It is my first try using chemical nutrients, Lucas formula with GH 3-part. They are autoflower seeds I made. Out of nine total planted only these two are female. Last test run had a similar M:F ratio, so now making fem auto seeds.

I got me 12 fabric 1 gallon pots from amazon, just now. 12 pots for $15!
Gonna be running autos in 1 gallon pots in the little tent, which i will also use to veg my fems, and then onto the big tent; bu the autos will remain in the little tent for the whole grow.
Thanks @Fisch i was thinking of doing it like this a long time ago and when you said it, i did it.

I just watered my plants for the first time since they sprouted. 2.5qt per 3 gallon pot, real slow and easy to make sure of an even distribution of water. It had a very mild solution of Canna Rhizotonic and Cannazym (Like a 3rd of recommended dosage. Runoff water went to the greenhouse for tomatoes and whatnot… Re arranged the tent too, this is what you guys see in there.

This Peyote Cookies is up to something, but haven’t really done anything to it, other than watering with a little Cannazym & Rihzo, very mild, very much so. I put 5mL in two gallons filtered controlled pH water, so…?

Eso es tierra?
Mete el dedo hasta que encuentres humedad…hasta donde llega?
Are your lights dimmable? I wonder if your problems aren’t phototoxicity. Your driver has a dimmer right? Turn that down and see if things dont improve.

The soil is totally wet as they were watered for the first time yesterday.
The lights are running at 100W right now, the CitizenCLU048! So i dunno!
And i forgot to mention that everysingle plant got the same treatment and this is the only one acting up!
idk sometimes not everything is a problem to be solved, i think maybe a lil small still for feeding but im not familiar with those products not every seed is going to be a strong vigorous plant also idk

I got seedlings that are a day or two old they all took the same and that one i dunno, i might have to cull it, and replace it. Gonna start soaking another one right now for that purpose, i’m not about to deal with a weak and defective seedling having a whole bunch of freebies to choose from… Cheers!

De cualquier forma: no riegues mas hasta que tu dedo encuentre seco hasta la segunda articulaciĂłn previa al nudillo. Y solo agua. Cuantas veces has regado con Canazym desde la germinaciĂłn? Y solo con agua?

It’s the first watering all the rest of the plants are green and healthy, i’ll show you; but this is the only one and also a pink diesel i wanted to rescue but it’s genetics i think. I gave them like 10mL of water with a sprayer everyday until they had cotyledons, after that just yesterday, 2.5qt per 3 gallon pot, run off water was clean and clear. Temp is always at 26C stable, and humidity around 60RH. Pictures of the other plants…
