Looks like a bunch of happy plants getting to watch Monty Python all day!

I'm interested in more information on your tent setup. Size of tent, type of light, lighting schedule (if applicable since you mentioned auto, not sure if all the plants were also auto), etc.

Also, how does it compare to growing outdoors? What aspects do you find easier vs which are now more difficult?

Happy growing! Keep up the great work!

the tent came as a kit from mars hydro
added a tube heater cheap humidifier and a Arete one dehumidifier for climate
the auto has done much better than i expected already adding weight at a good speed
hard to judge on a auto as last time i grew autos they wasn`t that great even in the best conditions they were called low riders i think ?

the auto is packing on weight daily so really don`t want to change light cycle yet for the photos , was only a test run while vegging but have sort of falling in love with her cant wait to smoke her

any advise is welcome many thanks

Without much horizontal space many forms of LST won't help. You can still rearrange the leaves. Make sure the taller branches have their fan leaves tucked under the cones of the shorter branches. This is very low stress and should help the shorter branches catch up in height. I tend to do this when the light cycle begins and then undo it right before it ends. I undo it to increase air flow between leaves to prevent moisture from being trapped between them.

Hehe, had no clue that was a thing. You can try editing your posts instead.

Usually do something like this.

Edit: I forgot to mention.... so and so.

anyhow sod that nonsense will continue with progress in my garden
at 55 days from germination and re potted , (yes a school boy error i know but was a test run)
the gorilla glue auto wont be far off the time it says on the packet at 75 days by the look ?. Ive been on the low side with nutes hench the yellowing so gave her a good feed today with grow , bloom and top max and a bit of bio heaven . Will give her one or two more light feeds then water only .
i`ve slowed the Lsd and wedding cake to give the auto abit more time to finish
any advice is welcome many thanks
