Yes, I know my guy told me to dump this auto, but I will let the little baby finish out just because. What the hell, right?

Just got home from work and took a snap. Watered last time with nutes till I had about 20% runoff. They seem to be flourishing. Would be taller, but have topped what could be. My mentor tied his down, but I am not. Just wanting a few more colas and going for bushy and flat without too much work. Want to order the ph pen, but been too damn busy. It IS on my list for tomorrow...lol. Personally, I think the ones in the cat litter buckets seem to be thriving more.
Do you work at a flower shop?
Everything is looking great! I understand that too damn busy thing! (Shakes fist) damn responsibility’s!! Lol keep up the good work!

Retail! And I do cleaning and maintenance for food service establishments under the table. Always on the run.
That’s up to you gump. If it’s obstructing the view of the light, I would say absolutely get rid of it, but that’s just me, I’m not afraid to trim lol. You could also tie it out of the way if you don’t want to cut it off

The little puny autoflower smells like diesel fuel or gasoline and pine. Have read that I should buy a scope?..but then some sites say just watch the pistils to turn dark. I can def smell the little thing.

I think I will trim a little, just the big ones hiding the colas...and leave the rest.

Removed the big fan leaves shadowing the colas since i topped...plenty of new colas are looking brighter green and better. Have been watching the leaf tips for nutrient burn..maybe just a tad on the tips, or could it be natural???

I did remove that pesky autoflower from the tent to flush her good. Big fat bud with plenty of pistils. Since she was in the back and hard to reach it is the first time I have seen her up close. I do not have a scope, so figure when the pistils turn maybe 60 percent amber I will harvest her for a real pick me up high. Could be wrong...any opinions out there???

So here I am with this new (new to me) place I am buying from my relative will a lot of his stuff still in it. He is out on the road with a new railroad job...and the only help I have is the internet and this site. I don't own a cell phone, so will see if they make it to bloom. I wanna tinker with them, but that is only because I am impatient. There are sooo many different growers opinions. it gets confusing. At least he hooked me up with some compost and the basics. The last time I saw him and he saw my plants he said "looking good, find your groove". And yesterday I had a HUGE horsefly in the room..from the compost???

So I thought I would post my very first pic again...then where I am today. Got rid of that puny autoflower..need the bag and the tray under it. So here they are. Seems like the topping I did produced quite a few more colas and kept them nice n bushy so far.

I seemed to be doing good, after watering till I had runoff (which never did before) they seemed kinda "saggy". I think it was more than they were used to. Turned my fan up to high speed for some evaporation and they seemed to come back out of it rather quickly. Bout had a heart attack.
