You have to realize that autos grow faster then photos so an Auto can pass a photo in growth for a little bit.In my first grow and I had room and decided to add an auto to my already vegging photos for this challenge. Still a ton to learn but to start at same time asa everyone in the challenge and pass most of my photos that are 2 months ahead is thrilling. I sprayed with sts so its a scratch on using flower but I am stoked how good she is doing. But if anyone sees anything I need to do other than training let me know. I plan to train more in my next run but want to learn this part first.
Your Auto is flowering already so it has went through it's stretch, photoperiods will still double or triple in size when they get flipped to flower here soon.
Also some of us topped our plants and then trained them wider instead of taller.
For example, my plant is only 11 inches tall (15 inches without tops bent) but is 24" wide.
Little over 5 weeks old
Another thing is your node spacing is a lot longer then some of the other plants in the contest, some have the same amount of nodes or more but the plant is shorter/bushier.
Increasing the amount of light you were giving your plant during veg could of helped reduce the stretch and give a shorter node spacing.
Please don't take this negatively, your plant looks great!
Just saying that there's things to consider with plant size and Auto vs Photoperiod.
