So the seed was stuck on one of the cotyledon‘s. While trying to gently remove the seed it cracked one of the cotyledons almost clean off. It was just hanging so I left it. I was almost about to toss the plant but I thought I might as well keep it and see what happens. She doesn’t look to bad

You would never know that she started out sorta handicapped. One of the coytledons was broken but she has rebounded. I almost threw her out because of it but I’m glad I didn’t!

Growth has exploded mid way through week 3. She is adding 1-2 inches of vertical growth every day. The best time to top autos is around this time. I should have topped her at the beginning of week 3 but I waited till the beginning of week 4 which didn’t alow the tops to spread out enough.

I should have topped her earlier. Before she grew over a foot in like 5 days. She’s pretty big now and starting to flower so we will see how this goes. You can see in the one pic where she split into two tops. I hope I didn’t mess with her to much topping her late but she seems fine.

I’ve started to give her a light feed 2x a week. She is starting to pick back up from me topping her to late. Awesome pictures to come! I just bought a go pro so I will be doing a couple videos also.

She is starting to smell really good. Really fruity and sweet smelling. I’m super excited for you guys to see the final product. I haven’t had any problems other then some purplish stems which is probably from the cold weather but I’m not sure. Maybe cold water also?

Buds are looking and smelling nice! You can see there the main tops should be a little bit further apart. But hey it’s my first auto. EVER. Really my first harvest ever too. Because it’s going to finish before my bag seed. Go check out my other grows and like and follow!

I’ve started to give her nothing but R/O water with a ph of 6.3. She is doing great! Hairs are starting to turn orange, trichs are milky, and buds are starting to swell. Only a few Amber trichomes tho. Like less then 1% . Check out the pictures and give a like or follow to see the harvest videos,pics, and final weights!

Soo as promised I got some close ups! And a couple videos! Please like and follow! I’m wondering if I cut nutes out a little too early because trichomes are like 90% milky but only a few Amber still. Maybe 2% amber. She is doing awesome and I honestly can’t wait to try her out it was well worth the wait! Let me know what you all think!

So I cut her down last night and all 197 grams are in my drying tent. I couldn’t be happier with canuk and this northern lights plant. It’s got purples and pinks in the tops and all the other buds are a nice light green color. The smell is amazing. A little fruity but it’s hard to put my nose on exactly what . Be on the lookout for the harvest update in around 3 weeks!

Thank you! It looks like she is going to beat out my bagseed grow and the other couple autos I started her with and be my first harvest ever. I’m so pumped! I was very nervous going into this because I see all the people that fail at growing or the buds just aren’t right and I really wanted to give the girls the best chance to produce big fat stinky sticky buds. And I think I’ve figured out what works. STAY TUNED FOR MORE GROWS and Harvests! Really if anyone has any questions feel free to ask! I don’t know it all and I’m willing to show you my mistakes and how I fixed them! REMEMBER IF YOU SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING! Because I see a lot of fire on the site and I love it!

@idigmusictoo,a couple different lights. 150w hps, mars hydro 420w or something and then like another 600w of a custom built led with cxb3590 cobs 2700k and 3500k and then some supplemental blues, reds, uv, and violet I think. I can’t rememeber what all I used.. my flower tent is similar with around 600-750watts of led and then 600 watts of hps

This was a KILLER looking grow. I see some experience shining through here. Nice job! I am attempting my first "topless" SCROG (trying to bend instead) with 6 different strains right now, one of which is a Northern Lights Auto. It would be cool if you would follow along and make a suggestion or two. - Zannabis7

Yeah.. I have to say I am pretty impressed with Canuk Seeds. The strains I have gotten from them so far have all turned out to be great growers. Congrats on the harvest!
