New Grower Little Concerned?

[MR ROOKY]

Hi guys
I am a little concerned about my Auto easy ryders, they have been out side for a month, they are looking very healthy in all this
great weather the UK is getting but after a month now and they are still very small, about a foot high, they did not have the best start
as I allowed the shoots to get quit lanky before placing outside after some top info from this forum, so went out lanky and kept
finding them fallen over, finally did a decent job of propping them up with canes and pipe cleaners and they have bounced back great.
I guess now they are a foot high and just coming into ther 4th layer of leaves. My concern is after a shoddy start with me really not having a clue
and the fact they are autos and have a life span of around 10 weeks, my worry is due to the initial stress they have gone through will they
be able to complete there flowering before there life span ends, I have another month and a half from now, I am told a lot can happen in this time
and I am trying to stay positive, but what do you guys think of my chances? (I move them around with the sun so they get the max I can give them and I have just given them there first very light feed. Any thoughts would be brilliant good news or bad, ill just put it down to experience if bad!
cheers

It's a weed and it will recover. As far as letting them get stressed, that will affect yield if you don't correct the problem, but it shouldn't have that huge a difference. What you're explaining shouldn't devastate a plant

easy rider will only grow about a foot some taller but 1-1.5Ft is normal. as far as stressing the plant it may effect the plant a little bit, but the plant cant finish its life cycle until it finishes flowering so theres no way your plant will finish its life before it flowers unless it dies for some reason. i think that you should be fine. you have any pics we can see what kind of shape they are in? you have to remember your growing autos and easy ryder is a older strain so you wont get 3-4Ft tall plants from those you have to look into getting some new genetics. if you want hugh plants look at Dutch Passion and their genetics are top shelf so you will get almost garenteed good plants.

Brilliant as usual guys, yup that makes total sense about the life cycle, I had it in my head that it would be 10-13 weeks then BAM dead
harvestable flowers or not!
They are very top heavy with l foliage being In the top 4ins of the plant due to me allowing them too get so tall before the proper leaves came on.
No pics yet as bit of technophobe, have not worked out how to do that yet :-/. But the words mean a lot. feeling better about the situation now.
I used too smoke shed loads and never bothered growing, now going back to it for health reasons, finding this growing malarkey pretty therapeutic
even if occasionaly I get a panic on.
So whatever happens not counting untimely death I should get a half decent harvest, fingers crossed? cheers man

12 weeks is average and outdoors will usually add a couple weeks........Some food for thought, another thing some pictures would really help with diagnosis of your issues......
