Sweet Seeds 1st Auto grow.

[Nosias]

Day 57,
Cream Caramel is leading the way and starting to slowly fill out flowers. This is the hurry up and wait time. Still a little upward growth by a few secondary branches but the main cola seemed finished at 21 inches. I have tons of light in the tent and am hoping they fatten up real good in the next 5-6 weeks. Not sure on the exact time but it will be fun to watch them fill out for sure.
The NLx's are a little behind the CC with the untopped one still getting a little taller at 32 inches and the topped plant at 22 and holding.
If all goes well we should have enough flower to fill up a handful of quart jars...but I am getting ahead of myself.

You are hitting it out of the park. Yes make sure you have enough Mason Jars for sure. Always plan and be prepared. You have seen them thru some rough spots and here is your reward. Enjoy the rest of the journey.

We all seem to have issues that is part of the learning. Do not be too hard on yourself. Enjoy and know you are watching some ladies dance for you in that tent. Nice tent.

day 59, Everything is going pretty good. CC is about 3 weeks into flower and a week ahead of the other 2. Liking how the buds are growing.
My system is not perfect and a little stress showing up on all the plants but I am going to just let them do their thing and keep everything running within acceptable limits. These pics are just before lights out and the plants always droop a bit at this time. They know its sleepy time.

Day 60 and things are doing fine!
Mixed up more nutes. The plants continue to be thirsty with the added lighting and the dry house due to winter and the furnace running.
Have a humidifier trying to keep up but the RH for the home is barely at 20/25% depending on the time of day.
Tent is running 45-55 % rh and 74-82F.

CC is now 2 ft tall and continuing to add flowers and stretch a little bit more....aaah!
NLx#1 is now 3ft tall and perhaps will force me to bend her main cola down as I only have a few inches left up top for the lights.
NL#2 is also at 2 ft and seems stable but will bear the marks of stress I put her through.
So much for the slow start with these plants. They obviously like my abuse... or just don't care.

They are doing great!!! B4 you cut or bend her you should be able to get so extra head room by reducing the cords on top of lights. All in all you have a healthy tent. Great effort.

Day 62 and a quick update.
CC is filling in at a good pace and seeing some frost shining at me. NLx#1 has shot up to over 3 ft tall now. Knew it was sativa dominant but didn't expect this height.
The Topped NLx is gradually making more flowers. Think the NL'xs will be a fair bit slower to mature then the Cream Caramel.
Learning alot about Autos and really looking forward to this last leg of the grow.

Maybe a little later then desired but supercropped the main cola of the tallest NLx to make room for lighting. Had zero room left and lights were only 11 inches from the top. As this plant is the last to go into flowering and has a long flowering cycle, hopefully it won't be stunted much by this late HST.
Put in flooring and trim at home most of the day. Time for a break.

Got to do what you need to do. Good job. I use the rubber bendable wire and tie the top down. Also I am not sure how long to keep the duckt ape on. Maybe it is not ever an issue and does not need to be removed. Just a friendly thought.
