First indoor grow! Purple lemonade

This was my first week ever growing indoors so I wasn’t expecting anything crazy, just want to get from seed to harvest. I didn’t want to have to transplant this plant because I didn’t want to stunt the growth so I put it straight in to a 5 gallon fabric pot. After doing this I’ve decided I’m always going to transplant from plastic cups to a 1.75 gal to the 5 gallons. I didn’t save many photos as it grew (currently writing this on week 8 of flower) but what pictures I do have will be uploaded with my thoughts and reasonings. Very new grower here so any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I didn’t take pictures the past few weeks and I also didn’t count the days accurately. This is definitely end of week 4 though, as I did lst the next week and no topping.

First attempt at lst

I did some more lst to add more light to the lower branches.

I took the lst ties off and cleaned up the bottom parts of the branches. Buds started to come in nice.

She stopped stretching at this point but the buds are starting to swell up.

She started to show some purple and producing frost and man does it smell beautiful. Everytime i touch it, it smells like skittles to me. I smell so much sweet lemon. I absolutely love the smell. And for such a short plant, the buts are way better than I expected with only more time to get better :))

Ok finally all caught up to date on this diary lol. She’s getting pretty close to harvest and I can not wait. I ordered a jewelers loop and once I get that I expect it should be pretty close if not ready. I can not wait to see my final weeks. Wish I had more purple though.
