I welcome all criticism and advice.

My first two autos look healthy, I guess, but I'm pretty sure they're not nearly developed as they could be. Also, don't know if this is where they should be at their age. I do remember the seed packet saying 30 days of veg, so that's gotta be close. As far as growth, no clue.

The two fast-version Big Bud photoperiods have gone in different directions. The smaller one is in early flower and I'm not even sure what to do with that? Treat it like an auto from here on out? A couple notes I kept. BB1 was started in 1/2 pot and moved to 7 gal fabric pot, BB2 was started in solo cup and moved to same type pot.

The bigger Big Bud is still in veg I think and growing nicely.

Gorilla cookies auto seems to be moving along ok.

"Nobody knows what these things are gonna do"
-Someone on this site last year
My Autos were started on May 31 and have not started flowering yet but I think one is stretching 'cause it's taller than the 2 others. The second pic is of 3 others, different variety.

Does that really say what I think it says?try a kilt youl not get cock itch ya madman...sittin here laughing....do you work wi rockwool by any chance...? If so tru new coco...lol...
lol…I’d love to let you think it says cock itch, but it says Jock itch. 🤣 and I wish we had such cool sounding compliments such as “gardens a peach mate” in the US…breath of fresh air m8.
 
Diluted isn't so bad, defective! It's a grab and go. Especially if you don't know what to do. All pests hate it. Not a cut to integrity.
I'm bummed I can't use it in flower. 💐
Haven't had a taste problem using it on my tomatoes. I don't pick till next day & always wash anything I eat.
1x I made some skin dis-order cream*special order* for a friend's son. Upon smelling it he gagged & couldn't use it . Friend & I lol so hard😹 this was 25 yrs ago. Still LoL Thanks for the memory🎉
Have a fantastic finale to your grow! You'll rock it!! 🫵👊
Thanks Poozy, sorry I didn’t see this post! That’s a funny story…I’m traumatized from using it one time indoors years ago lol…I can still smell it in my nostrils lol.

Thanks for sharing those. One thing that stands out right away to me is your stems. They are much thicker than mine were at a similar spot. Also, your branches are extending further out.

I think I should have started my autos about now, not a month ago.

Can I ask a couple questions? 1) What size pots are those? And 2) Did you start seeds in the pot?

Nearly everything I could find about autos said start them in the medium you wish to finish them in. Well, my og kush and northern lights were started in the pots, but my Gorilla Cookies Auto, started in solo cup, has had better veg growth than either of those. At least in my uneducated view.

I'm thinking the 30-degree temperature fluctuations and lack of light early on must have hurt my autos.
 
Sounds like a nutrient deficiency. How acidic is your soil? Might to hit it with a touch of lime to balance th out. Lime always turns mine a darker green.
Good luck 👍🏼
I've tried using my meter but I don't trust it. It's always in the high 6s when I do. I did a soil test where you add water and then test with a strip. That seemed to show I was in acceptable range. Because I haven't been sure, I've tried to add properly ph'd water each time.

If my PH is acidic, would this help?

Every auto I've ever grown nearly triples in size during flower. They look good, just keep them on a consistent watering schedule and and make sure you don't overfertilize them and they'll handle the rest.
 
If I were to grow in pots up here in Ohio...15+ gal is how I'd roll. Too much fluctuating in moisture and temps in small containers IMO. Stable puts buds on the table.😉
Sorry I missed this.

I wanted to use bigger pots, but mobility and concealment were my objectives due to the nature preserve behind my home. People walk the path back there, and I guess my plants are not supposed to be visible to the public. I'd love to put them in the ground, but despite having plenty of room for it, I just know some asshole will get offended.

If morning sun and then facing south are good, as I keep reading, I could do that no problem if I can block the view. I should just build a greenhouse right in the middle of the yard. This issue is the only reason I'm even messing with pots.

Makes sense what you're saying. Thanks.

IF your soil is acidic sure this is the normal route, but PH In the high 6 range is only slightly acidic and the preferred range for weed. How is your soil for organic content? Organic matter can help buffer your ph and nutrients.

I filled each pot with Fox Farm Ocean Forest and nothing else. How that is for organic content, I'm not sure. Then I've used 1 tbsp top dressing Roots Organic Terp Tea on each of the plants during veg twice on the fast photo big buds and once each on autos. Since my two autos are flowering, I've since given them Tiger Bloom once, and no terp tea.

If this sounds like I don't know what I'm doing, it's because I don't.

That's why I make a fence, and grow pole beans. I've have a small area that can be viewed from the road...if your inclined to slow down to look close enough, before the bean foliage hides them thru to harvest.
