New Grower Day 63 What y'all think?

.... NRK, you got native skills, girlfriend!! That's a fine plant by any measure, and a most impressive job in particular for a novice DWC grower ...your Brazilian is a nice lollipopping technique- nekked down low, to focus the energies and resources to the buds above! Whatever you're doing, it's not fumbling along in the dark my friend,...DWC is not for the faint hearted or clueless...with a little guidance, you are kicking some tail, proper! Many others have had the same and them some, only to end up with little mushroom clouds coming from their pots - LOL!,... I'm very glad you found such a good mentor in 'Cocha, too! He's a gem, and we're lucky to have him.... but still comes down to you to listen, learn and execute, juggling all the factors that make DWC such a dynamic grow method with a notoriously steep learning curve! And looky that hot girlie you made! ...now, Ima go drool on her lap if you don't mind,...
...buds look they have good density, with nice fat tops all around,...just loaded with trichomes too! You don't get all this unless your light and nute's are dialed in well,... great pics too, BTW! She's getting close... ... different strains, different ripening speeds, so she bears close watching at this point,... I think I see mostly clear, and some cloudy trich's, but I expect clouding up to take place pretty quickly,... at that point, the trich are technically ripe, max THC,... ambering happens when the THC starts to break down into CBN, the sleepy cannabinoid,...as mentioned, the uncommon auto won't amber up much until waaaaay late, well past prime for potency and aromatics,... I don't know if ShortRyder is one of these, so if you can find another grow of it, you might get insights about this,... meantime, talk with Cocha about your finishing plan-- final feeds, and cleansing period,... My best guess is about 2 weeks or so to harvest.... ...keep rockin' it luv, you're a natural at this! ...(damn, I Rep slapped you already?..gotta spread it around before getcha agin!)

Nice work! Gorgeous actually. I have two girls, similar timing as you - about 65 days now. There's a great thread on here on when to harvest autos, tells us newbies to watch those leaves, as they turn yellow you're getting close.

Keep us posted on the home stretch on this and the other ladies!

Hi nice work especially for a first timer in hydro I would be terrified of trying hydro. Did some1 give you a top about lolly poping I tough that was a nono

Hey frosty,
I won't say hydro is easy, by any means, but I'm learning. I'm at home all the time so i can check on things frequently.

As far as lollipopping, i don't know if that's what i'm doing but I've just imitated what I've seen guys do here.

My res are in my garden tub, so i have limited space and I've found my 12 4' t5's aren't giving as big a spread as is like. I felt i really had no choice. To maximize light i wanted to thin out spindly branches i knew wouldn't come to anything and wide leaves shadowing the middle and some outer bud sites.

It just makes sense to me. I don't believe I've caused any harm or delay. That short ryder there is proof. This grow hasn't been without incident that's for sure, but I'm going with my gut on a few things.

Hey akreso,
Thanks for looking in. I've read that thread and I'm watching everything, leaves, pistils, trichomes. I think I'll have to use a combination to try and hit it right.
My others are at 4' tall, would have been ideal for a Scrog i believe.
with your grow!

Look like 3 more weeks or around there. Nicely done bro shes a nice one. Some autos dont amber at all so i like to go off the stigma color, when theyre mostly orange start the 2 week cleanse. Gonna be a nice harvest!! Congrats!!

Thanks jayar!
I'm looking at leaves, pistils and trichomes and go with my gut. It'll all be good I'm sure.

Thanks I'm not left with much choice myself . My tent is packed I need to find a way to penetrate the bush(a Brazilian is needed lol). I started off with to many plants. Come check out my growhttps://www.autoflower.org/index.ph...-help-and-experience-to-get-me-through.43071/

Oh waira you're a real gem! Shorts real close i can feel it. If my other 3 turn out, I'll feel more confident. I hope they fill out more, at the moment they look a bit "jiffy pop" I would guess.
Watchin' em closely!
