Why do my autos take longer than everyone else with same strain
If you live in a different part of the states or heavy LST make your autos take longer to grow. I see all these diaries that at 7-8 week there’s is not only way smaller ( I only have the diaries going now) and they are finished way sooner than when I have grown them. Thank you

General feedback
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, to me the plant looks healthy, however it is a bit small considering it’s age, right? I’m thinking it may be because of the cheap ‘300W’ light I was using at the beginning of the grow. What do you guys think? (Video end of week 6)

LST method, topping and switching to flower!
Please look at my four girls and advise when I should top them? LST going good so far but think I need to wait a little longer before topping? Anyone have a preferred method of doing things? I’m hoping to LST for another week or so and then switch to flower, am I rushing things🙏

How do you measure your plants correctly?
When measuring the height of a plant do you measure from soil to top of canopy or is it the length of the main stem? MIne are trained sideways.😎

Height control
I have limited space working with these plants, I know that blue dream likes to stretch. Working with a 2x4’ tent with a headspace of about 4’. Any advice on growing techniques to keep these in control while getting max potential volume?

Topping/LST in same week or one week apart?
Regarding manifolding/mainlining: Is there any difference or what would be preferred between: Topping as early as possible in week1 and LST new growtips in week2 vs letting stuff grow out for 2 weeks and Top and LST new growtips at the same time? Cheers 👍
