First Indoor Grow and Feeling Good

[waincox]

Hey I've received so much good feedback in this forum and I appreciate the expertise I've been able to get. So, I want to share some photos of my first indoor grow. I germinated 2/2 Afghan Kush seeds that were supposedly autos but after 5 weeks I have my doubts. However, the plants seem to be pretty strong. Do I flip from 18/6 to 12/12 or let them carry on a few more weeks in my 3x3x5 grow space? They're about 24" tall. Even if I get some criticism I'm pretty happy with how these are going so far

Give them another week, they look about to pop. If they are autos they should be happening any day now.

If after a week they arent sprouting white hair, flip em

They look healthy and happy, good job man!

Thank you for the feedback! Will autos stretch when they start flowering and for how long? I see differing info online and I don't want to run out of vertical space...

yes they will stretch first 2 or 3 weeks , not so much later.

They will stretch some, depending on the strain. Autos usually don't stretch as much though. Could be 3 or 4 inches. Could be a foot.

What light are you using and how far is it away right now?

I'm using a Mars Hydro TS1000, started at 24" above, now at 18". They've been growing like weeds () the past week and a half so perhaps they're in the home stretch

This grow has been going pretty good and the first pistils popped a week ago. I noticed these spots at the top of one of the plants that literally appeared during the day today. Does anyone recognize this issue? I'm also getting some yellowing leaves at the very bottom of both plants. Thanks for any help!

Well nevermind my last post, still going strong. Afghan Kush is looking good. C'mon build my confidence a little

Looking good man! Fill that scrog up!

Now it's getting to the exciting part. I think I'm only a few weeks away from harvest. The aroma is getting quite a bit stronger, luckily my carbon filter and exhaust fan are doing their job

Thanks for the boost!

I need an opinion, I'm 78 total days from seed with 37 days since the first pistils popped. This is supposed to be Afghan Kush auto. This is in FFOF soil/coco/perlite mix. The leaves are turning yellow and the lower ones are dropping as expected. The trichomes are crystal clear but I'm wondering if I should feed a few more times or go with plain water from here on. This is my first grow so I'd appreciate any expertise.

Feed them.

 

[waincox]

That's what I was wanting to hear since I fed them yesterday

Quite impressive first grow! However those plants are nowhere near Harvest, you've got at least a month to go; recommend you continue to feed normally, best wishes!

@growsince79 @Beachwalker thanks for your input! Always appreciated!

So I kept feeding and no regrets, the buds are fattening up and some nice purple color is coming in. I love the fall colors
