kjones1423 So far so good. Waiting for my light and grow tent to come so she is in a solo cup soaking up the sun. I should be all set up by weekend. Using FFOF and watering about every day and a half.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

kjones1423 I found out my daughter watered her and it was a bit much as the leaves are curling down. I had to add more drainage so she could dry up. Watered after 3 days and fingers crossed.
I feel like she should be bigger when compared to others at 2 weeks.

kjones1423 Transplanted her a few days ago and didn't run into any problems. I am experiencing some heat issues due to a heat wave. I have a portable AC unit on the way so we should be good here in a few days.
UPDATE:
Received my portable AC unit. Tent is at 83 degrees with 55 RH. I have also started to put her outside in the mornings so she can soak up the sun then after a few hours putting her back under the light.
UPDATE #2:
Had to transplant today. Lost about 4 inches of depth in my soil. I was afraid there wouldn't be enough.

kjones1423 Added nutrients for the first time but went with a lower dose. I began putting her out first thing in morning to soak up that sun for about 4 hours. Afterwards she goes right back under the lamp.
She is reacting well to the LST so I will continue to work with her as she grows. I also clipped off a few fan leaves that were getting the way.

Outdoors, you can stop right at flower. No reason to train after that, you got plenty of penetration and height isn't as much of a problem. Indoor, you should stop after the 2nd week of flower (1st in my opinion, but experts seem to agree that LST in week 2 is fine if necessary).

I continue to do lst work on branches up until the end of flowering stretch . That ensures u maintain your even canopy until vertical growth is reduced. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

Once an Auto begins to flower do you switch to a 12/12 light schedule?

no part of the benefit of autos is the ability to run 16-20-24 hours of light during flower. 18 seems to be the most common number for auto flower growers...

You absolutely can, but it will hurt potency and yield. I have kept mine on an 18/6 schedule throughout.
If you have stealth reasons or energy concerns, they will do fine under 12/12. Otherwise stick with 18 hours or more of light.

kjones1423 She is doing really well. Ran into some nutrient lock so I ended up flushing the soil. Looks like she has recovered. I am a little worried since we are experiencing a heatwave and temp wil be 105 to 110 for the next week or so.

kjones1423 This week has been crazy. With all of these fires I have been dealing with ash and smoke. Sunlight is minimal so I think I will leave her in the tent for the rest of flowering. I didnt take some close up to see where we are at in the flowering process.
Any suggestions would be great.
