Not for nothing but look at it like this and I tell people all the time. Yes you will have less of a yield due to newbie mistakes, but the best way to learn is hands on and you did that. There is no one size fits all mold for growing, environment is always different so advice has to be taken with a grain of salt, but the fundamentals if adhered to will result in smokable bud. Will you have dense dispensary trophy looking bud on your first grow??? most likely not, but will you have enough free bud to not have to pay for it? ABSOLUTELY. In time comes experience and a better end product, but in the meantime you get to enjoy the fruits of your hard work. Light fluffy airy buds or dense dank stinky sticky nugs makes no difference right out of the gate. Enjoy the fruits of your labor and now is a perfect time to really wrap your head around curing so your bud doesn't smell like lawn clippings. It truly is one of the most important parts of the grow cycle. Best of luck my friend.

great looking plants mate, I wish you had more photos and videos showing how you topped them! I will follow along. Happy Grow!

Ahhh, I see what you mean by topping! Excellent example of how it's done. I'm becoming a believer. :raised_hands:

Don't forget to give her at least 1 week flush with ph RO water if you can.

hey Kaya, just a bit of general advice there's very little you can do in the last 3/4 days out of 70, trykes take 2 weeks to ripen so anything you do the last three days won't make that happen fast, in fact three days of darkness might damage your trykes, anything more than 24H might. Darkness is induced to make sure the bad tasting and smelling photosynthesis chemicals are less present at the chop. 12h is enough for that actually. Hope this helps ! :rocket:

Is the above pic at 5 weeks? I only ask because they look small and autos can be tricky. Did you transplant them early on? Check out my week 5 pics for comparison. Just trying to help as in the past I transplanted my autos and they never recovered and I ended up with a 5 inch plant that had on popcorn nug cola.
