I think back to my very first auto, a Trainwreck from CKS. It was also the very first plant I reversed for seeds. I grew it outside, somehow trained it to grow just 4 branches, destroyed one spraying the colloidal silver on it. I think I ended up with 23 fluffy grams of dry flowers and 118 feminized Trainwreck auto seeds.
You did a great job for you first grow. If you can put on the blinders and quit deciding to try every method suggested to you and settle on one and working on it you'll quite well.
