1st grow, tiny seed from unknown weed

Just after the lights switched off is the best moment, but only in veg as it raise the humidity so it can create a rotten bud issue in flowering. You can also foliar spray some nutrients like N or cal mag

Hi @U2malone put more small tuperware water containers. you can spray the walls of the grow with water whenever you can, and you can place some soaked towels spread over the grow. the humidity of your grow will certainly rise. good luck mate 👍

Hi @U2malone there are certain automatic strains that only start to bloom at 6/7 weeks. wait a little longer, if it doesn't start to bloom you will have to change the light hours to 12/12. Some automatic phenotypes on the market have genetic flaws and are not automatic plants, but normal female plants. see in the nodes of the plant if it has female calyx or pollen bags. the structure seems to me to be a female plant, if it’s automatic I don’t know. good luck mate 👍

Can you take a closer close up please. We can’t see the pistils you’ve spotted

Hi buddy wait a few more days :-) it may take 10 days after the time has elapsed until it comes out

You have a nice healthy plant there! Flowers will form regardless of being in a dense canopy (my Blue Dream'Matic plant was dense and yielded 200g under a 100w QB). Even if the lower leaves don't get a lot of light, they can be a stored energy source later in the grow. However, if you are getting high humidity or are worries about bud rot, then I would take away a little. For humidity issues, start at the bottom where leaves get the least light and remove those to reduce the overall transpiration of the plant. If airflow around the buds get so low that the buds are damp/at risk of mold, take away just enough to allow a healthy airflow in the middle of the canopy. Early removal of flowering sites at the bottom of the plant is a good idea, just to focus growth and energy to the bigger more desirable buds. Happy growing! 👍🌱

Some strains turn black or brown at the end of flowering, black means usually potent shit... Those pigments may disappear during drying though. I would not worry, and happy first harvest to you!
