They look right on for 15 days.Are you letting the pots get fairly dry?Over watering is probably the biggest mistake new growers make with soil.If you want to fuck with them everyday get some coco for your next try.Its alot more hands on other than just waiting for the next water in a few days.Other than picking a few leaves here and there I dont train my autos I just let them go.People do train autos but I dont think it helps as much as with photosFor the past week, I'd been giving light nute feedings (1mL/gal) and I noticed some nute burn on some tips a couple of days ago. I flushed them Tuesday and won't be trying to sneak any feed in a for a long while. They seem to be doing ok still. While I had it out to flush it, I decided to try some very minor LST on the biggest one. Doubt I'm gonna bother trying much more of it on this grow. Given my lack of experience I think I'm just gonna try to let them do their thing - screw it, they'll yield whatever they yield.
Here are a few Day 15 update pics.

You may have just nailed my biggest problem: I'm kinda fixated on them. Probably doesn't help that I haven't smoked in a few weeks and they've gotten to the point where I can smell them when I walk by the tent room. I wouldn't say I let them get particularly dry between waterings; I jam my finger an inch or two into the soil and water when it just feels slightly damp, not soggy by any means.Are you letting the pots get fairly dry?Over watering is probably the biggest mistake new growers make with soil.If you want to fuck with them everyday get some coco
Unless ur colorblindyeah,that protect will raise your ph.If you use it with your nutes add it first and mix it well before adding the nutes.You can add it to just your water but watch your ph .You have ph drops to back up your meter?I gave up on meters cheap ones suck and will fuck your plants before you know what happened, drops dont lie lol.
They look nice,I wouldnt worry about those couple spots.Try tucking those big fan leafs under the top shoots to let them get better light.Well, apparently no one particularly gives a shit about my thread, but I'm going to keep updating it.
Day 21 photo update. First 4 are just general pics:

The next few are some possible issues I'm seeing. Is it nute burn? Leaf septoria? How worried should I be? Since the flush I'd previously mentioned, they've only gotten water with a very light mix of Protect, so I'm thinking nute burn seems unlikely.

Now, for the last one, I think it may be good news? Do these white hairs that are starting to stick out at the nodes have something to do with impending sexual maturity? Kind of a shitty pic, but hopefully it's clear enough.

Since the pistils are becoming so prominent, I'm guessing that it's going to go into bloom fairly soon. Once it's out of veg, should I maybe start strategically removing some of the large fan leaves? I've read a good bit of different opinions on that matter. It seems that some people are becoming more confident that autos aren't quite as fragile as they may have once been; some people seem to swear by defoliating their autos.Try tucking those big fan leafs under the top shoots to let them get better light.
I would stick with the tucking for now its an everyday thing till your tops get taller.The more light the better just make sure you keep your temps in checkSince the pistils are becoming so prominent, I'm guessing that it's going to go into bloom fairly soon.

I've tried some tucking, but they just never stay out of the way for very long. I've put a stupid CFL very close to them for a tiny bit of extra light. I have another single 50w COB that I've been using to light a baby tomato plant, but I just moved that over to hit my main crop, hoping to penetrate thru some of the brush. I'm probably gonna hang it differently so it shines directly on them from the side.
Ok, thanks for the advice. I just went in to see what tucking I could do and I noticed something that I somehow managed to miss this morning when I took the other pics. The little nub-like leaves at the very bottom of the stalk are very yellow. Maybe those spots I pointed out are actually the beginnings of nitrogen deficiency? Time to start feeding them again? My phone sucks as a camera, but this pic is about as good as I could get on short notice.I would stick with the tucking for now its an everyday thing till your tops get taller.The more light the better just make sure you keep your temps in check
those are cotyledon leaves,the seed leaves.they feed the plant till the regular leaves form,they are suppossed to die.Ok, thanks for the advice.

Oh. I thought I was onto something for a minute there.they are suppossed to die.
I'm sure you'd be a better judge of that than I am. Here are some pics from a few minutes ago. Really need to find the damn charging cord for the camera so I can stop using a phone to take pics.are you seeing hairs at all the bud sites yet?
Right now, it's 16" above their tips. I did have it a few inches closer, but moved it up a bit yesterday. I'd seen people mention that, as long as the light didn't feel hot on your hand, it would be safe for the plants. It didn't feel remotely hot at 12", but figured a little more space wouldn't hurt.How far away is your light?
