Critical purple auto

I’m somewhere between 7-8 weeks with the same strain. Autos grow quick in coco, and I prefer a premix with a few of my own amendments. The stem is going to get too fat to really do any LST to it. Let it grow and remove bottom stems and leaves once it gets to a decent height.

Stick with photos and forget about autos would be my tip!

They take less nutes and can go longer before they need any. Don't try any time consuming training like mainlining. I just defoliate and do 1 round of supercropping after the stretch. I kept mine on an 18/6 schedule the whole time. You can do 24/0 or 20/4, but I think it's beneficial to have 6 hours of darkness. Leaf formation can be a little weird, so don't freak out if you get strange leaves. That's about it I guess, good luck!
