Hello there folks :) I apologize for being lazy and not taking pics during the first week. My baby was born in a plastic solo cup, cut up at the bottom, filled with bio bizz light mix and a fair bit of coco, soaked just right and covered with kitchen foil. Germinated in four days. Was then placed on the sunniest windowsills in my house. I moved the cup around, depending on the comings and goings in and out of my house and to give as much direct sunlight (thru the window) as possible to my baby. Was repotted in the final 12l pot 5 days in the first week, in a similar biobizz LM + Coco mix. Im using the BioTabs starter pack for Nutes. As of today, it is 10 days old and leaves are pointing up, which I've read is my baby's way of praising the sun. I follow the sun and move the pot around during the day, between the sunniest and stealthiest spots outside my house. From about 11 am to 10 pm. It's a little cold at night where I live so my baby sleeps in a self contained outdoor shed. Size wise, it is still small so watering is very marginal. No signs of overwatering or underwatering. I guess I must be doing okay so far. Thank you for reading :)

looking good. Nice and strong! Personally I would consider FIMming her, I'm now getting 2 colas for the price of 1 by topping mine when everyone said not to, I honestly believe this whole topping autos thing is a myth.... I would maybe consult someone on the effects of FIMming after flowering has started but now looks like a good time to do it if you want to turn that main cola into 2, 3, or 4. Just my tuppence, and many will probably disagree but it's definitely a worthwile risk. Disclaimer: Experiment at your own risk. I have no idea what I'm talking about, and topping or FIMming your autoflower may result in unpredictable outcomes! but hey, that's what makes it fun right!

@LawAbidingCitizen420, I have the exact same outlook on MJ growing. Mess with the variables, with the formula, to see what works best. I cant believe yours is only starting to flower now... I thought the switch to flowering was genetically decided within the seed itself. Seeing as my other two plants are a little unstable, Im not sure I want to mess with this one... I could use a decent yield.

@WuWei, I hear you, and it is conflicting, I almost lost sleep over decisions with my plants! I say this because I started with 4 seeds. One died, one was just LST'd, one LST'd, topped and generally just manhandled, and the other left growing as nature intended (although I accidentally stepped on her so she's a little fragile! don't ask....) and being totally honest with you the quick one that's been pushed to the limits is doing the best by far. She's a little behind as she's literally just started flowering like 8 weeks in but you can see already she's gonna yield better than all the rest. My advice is try something a little different with each plant, and see what the outcome is, whatever works best take that forward into your next grow. First time is always a trial run and only you will know what method works best for you but don't be afraid to experiment, they're a lot tougher than we give them credit for!
