Just read your harvest report and enjoyed it immensely. It's always a genuine pleasure to read results posted by a happy grower in love with their plant. Excellent detail in your closing comments; exactly the level of information that new growers would appreciate. Also, great final photo record..really punctuated the narrative. First rate effort. Take Care.

Good Morning. Droopy leaves occur with both under watering and overwatering. If the leaves feel dry and are slightly thin, it's under watering. If the leaves feel full and seem bloated, it's overwatering. Looking at your photos they seem to be puffy, so most likely you're using too much water, especially if your note about giving each plant a gallon each day is accurate. Back to your data notes again, it sounds like you're continuing to feed with both the original all purpose fertilizer and have added the Bloom fertilizer as well? If so they're probably getting an excess of nitrogen. They're still growing and need some nitrogen for a few more weeks, but if you're giving both, that's causing the nutrient stress. Also, I noted that you said you've been tucking some of your leaves to expose the lower buds, but I couldn't see any on your photos. This is a key time to get all those dozens of under-canopy buds exposed, so if you can't do it by tucking, you'll need to do some aggressive pruning. If you haven't done so yet I suggest you Go to the GrowWeedEasy site and review their "Problems and Symptoms" link. They have an excellent section on diagnosing your problems complete with good photos. The last time I checked, Nebula Haze and her team had 500+ tutorials. Just be careful not to be one of those folks who go to WebMD and imagine they have every illness know to science! All of this said, you've been doing a great job with your girls, and I love the methodical and detailed entries...librarians obviously are detail oriented! You're doing great, so don't stress out and enjoy the ride. Take Care.

Amazing work! Hands down the most beautiful outside garden setup I've seen, and I'm older than dirt. I need to follow your site to see the Autumn conversion. Fantastic gardening. Take Care.

, Good plan. Your first couple grows should be all about experimentation.☺️ First rule is don't stress yourself too much and your ladies will follow suit. Good Luck on everything. Take Care.

Good Morning, Your ladies look great, but they are definitely going to need more room soon. Anything less than 4 square feet per average Auto will have adverse results to their health and ultimate yield. I get the best results from allowing 4 to 6 square feet of floor space per auto. Also, it sounds like you added a second TS 600 to your tent this week? I have a number of those that routinely provide me with excellent yields covering 16+ sqft in vegetation and 10+ sqft in flowering. Just thought I'd share some examples. You've done super work so far! Take Care.

, I don't like giving direct advice on either stock trading or growing Lady Jane; Inevitably it will be misinterpreted at some point, then nobody is happy. Instead I'll just tell someone what I do. Autos are really fast, and I don't want them to get ahead of my prep; to that end I start them in their permanent pot to spare them the stress of an early transplant. Depending on the strain that's usually a 2 or 3 gallon SmartPot. I place an inch or so of clean river stone in the bottom then use Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil; it's sterilized and comes with an excellent quantity of natural nutrients. Using this soil I can routinely go through the vegetation stage and get to pre-flowering before I need to add any other nutes. This spares the plants the stress of too much fertilizer too soon. Regarding watering, when my kids are as young and tender as yours, I usually gently water them with 8 to 12 ounces whenever they need it. To encourage their roots I water in a circle around the plants, but not to within 2 inches of the stem so I don't risk damaging the plant. This makes the root system grow faster. I think it's fair to say that more plants are damaged by over or under watering then anything else in the first couple weeks. One piece of direct advice I will give is to suggest you to go the GrowWeedEasy website and avail yourself of their online tutorials. I don't agree with absolutely every recommendation they make, but overall their library is excellent as a source. Go grow! Take Care.

Certainly doesn't need any pruning. It'll sort itself out. Looks good! Take Care.

Congratulations on your first grow and welcome to a life-long hobby! There are many helpful and well experienced folks here that will jump right in when you have questions. Unfortunately they won't always agree with each other, but heh, that's cool. You might want to double check some of your data point entries; currently they're indicating you have a 6 oz pot and you're giving about a teaspoon of water per day. Accurate data will help when you need an answer from the forum. Prepare to be amazed, don't sweat all the small stuff, and enjoy the ride. Take Care.
