Hello! New member here 👋

First time grower here!
This is such an informative place, and I've almost religiously searched daily for advice through all the threads and forums going here. I got my girls as baby vegies, two are still veging but turned out there was an auto in the mix and this is where she's at now! I'm pretty happy with how she's tracking, now I'm at that point of wondering just how much longer to wait...as I said it's my first time so I'd like to get it right. I think she's been in flower for about 6 weeks, however it might be a bit out because she went early before I really figured out what was going on (I didn't even know autos were a thing then)! Any advice/comments/next steps etc would be so much appreciated!

Looks as healthy as a butchers dog. No tip burn, or curling leaves. That's going to be a very frosty lady. Take a pic with the flash on to show all those tasty trichomes. Oh and get yourself a jewelers loop (5-10 bucks on Amazon) to keep an eye on your trichomes. The white hairs will all turn brown/red, then you'll want to harvest when the trichomes inside the bud head get a few amber ones, don't judge the trichomes on the sugar leaves, they will turn amber really quickly so ignore them. Just look inside the bud core more, if they are milky with the odd amber, its harvest time!. This will let you know she is at her most potent. If you want max couch lock effect, you can let her stew for longer.

And write down as much as you can in a notebook of what and when you did something. I'm baked all day everyday, so a notebook was a life saver. I tried to do everything on the fly, gave double feedings when it should have been just water. Smoking weed whilst growing weed is fun, but it gets confusing lol.

I wish my first plant had looked like that. Good Job.

Thankyou that is exactly the info I was after!
I thought from what I've been seeing on other posts that it was going well but it's really nice to get some affirmation from someone else that it is! I don't have a green thumb when it comes to anything else so I'm giving myself big pats on the back for this!
