Day 71 and these ladies are going to enter a 48 hr sleep, going dark for two days before I cut them down. The trichomes are about 50% amber, the leaves have turned an autumn yellow and sugar leaves taking on a nice purple hue. They have been flushing for almost 3 weeks now so the smoke should be pretty smooth. They smell sweet like fruity candy and the buds are dense. I am a wet trim guy so in two days I will cut down, trim and then dry. The temps in the grow room without the lights will be from 15c at night to about 20c during the day. Humidity with no watering should be right around 20%. I will update week 11 for the whole trimming and curing process then will add the harvest week with all weights and stuff. Stay tuned and say hi 👋 if you stop by! Update : MOLD!! Ughhh what a disappointment, I caused the mold it’s my fault with my 48 hrs of darkness. So the plants were suuuuuuper dense and compact from the start, checked them before the 48 hrs of darkness and they were fine, during the darkness with no light on there was nothing to take down the humidity and it went to like 70%+ humidity......... I ended up throwing away 3/4 of the bud, I only kept the tips of all the colas. Now I’m not mad or anything and I’m using this as a learning opportunity for myself and hopefully others, this is the first auto plant I have ever grown and I should have had the light either higher or dimmed or not lst’d and let it grow up and out. It was too short and bushy from the start. So if anyone takes anything from this I would say it was the 48hrs darkness which raised the humidity to crazy levels which caused the mold 😩. We have lots of other bud here so we’re not gonna starve but it still feels bad. I’m off to start the solo cup challenge now. Happy growing everyone!

Looking forward to seeing pics. I just set up a account and I'm also about to grow my first auto flower. I've been growing for over 25 yrs but never auto. I just ordered zkittles auto, Gelato OG, GSC Auto, candy kush auto, sucker punch auto , and Gorilla Zkittles auto. I ordered 5 of each strain and plan on starting grow indoors and outdoors. I've got a bigger space and I'm still sold on old fashion 600w HPS , but I agree with smaller grow LEDs seam to be the ticket! I'm gonna keep up with your grow to see how it turns out but I've done a ton of reasearch one thing I noticed when your plants were seedlings you should try no Nuets at all just water and root stim and folic and humid until second or third sets come out. Everything I've read auto like super low Nuets I've even been looking into Bio nova they have a pre-mix I guess with autos there's no forgiveness in veg. I thought your plants looked a little shocked but was pretty impressed by difference between day 28 and day 34 looks like there taking off. Maybe I'm wrong but I want the same info about my grow hopefully we will be able to improve each other's outcome!! One thing I've learned in 25 yrs is you never learn enough and absorb all advice from beginners to expert. Hell I failed at growing the first 15 yrs in my own opinion look forward to more chats. Peace. Dr.GT73

@Johnnyronco, I'm in week 9 of a Zkittle, 2 BlackBerry Kush. One topped one is a mutant with some crazy leaves but is huge! Have a peek.

@DrGreenthumb73, Zkittles is an insane plant! She will be your favorite. I'm growing her now with a BB from 420 also. Mines over 2ft and she's been topped. This strain loves light! Drinks like an alcoholic. But be wary of nitrogen after preflower. She will nute burn fast. I bought a product called Flower Fuel to fix it. NPK of 1-34-32. The 2 rating I was giving was burning her but I also have slow release nitrogen in my soil. Just watch those tips and cut back immediately when ya see burn. Otherwise the buds are FREAKING HUGE!!!

@Johnnyronco, I have the same thoughts🤔.. also got a punch if AutoSeeds ordered and want to play with them in the next round. I think everything is dependent on a perfect veg, if so I think it's a possible way to train Autos. But I'm just smartass now. Also have to see how everything works. Just saw at Mrs_Larimars Club Riot Diaries that she topped the Autos on day 11.... 🤯🤯 Good luck anyways, cheerz 🤘Oim.

@@@OimRausch, well so far I’ve been trying to stretch it out! So small and bushy with no stretch. It’s hard to get light to all the bud sites so I basically laid the main stem down horizontally with the soil and lots of tying the branches to separate them. We will have to see how they turn out but I’m already thinking of mainlining or topping a couple autos after. I have a bunch of auto seeds so I think I will play with them for the next grow. People say you shouldn’t top autos but why not give it a try right?
