Wanted thoughts on my grow

First time grower here. Running an autoflower on about a month in. Just wanted to post some pics see what everyone thinks. If anyone thinks I should do anything. Open to any advice! Thanks in advance

Looks a wee bit water heavy, its got that beefy leaf look, but still healthy. How often are you watering? I can't see from the angle of the pics, and if you haven't already, I would 'very carefully' drill out some holes around the sides of your pot, it will help the excess water evaporate and let the air circulate around the roots more. Massive broad leaves to her, what's the strain?

Blue bourbon smash is the strain. Those big broad leaves are what's scaring me. Afraid it's preventing light penetration

Oh and I'm watering about every 2 to 3 days

The way the leafs are curling. I’m not sure , maybe light stress ? What’s your light ? Power ? Just a guess maybe they need less

My lights a vivosun vs1000 100w running at 100 percent the last few days. Maybe cut it back to 75. On a 18/6 schedule

Good call on the lights, yeah that's too bright for this stage. I have that same light too, and I'm vegging at 50% intensity, at about 20" over two 5 week old plants with it. Dropping the light intensity should encourage the plant to fight for more light, and grow towards it quicker.

You can always tuck or loosely fold the leaves instead of removing them completely. Cutting them will stress the plant out even more and could stunt her growth entirely.

I've had some autos that ended up bonsi trees, with a quarter of an ounce as the yield because I took the wrong leaf off, in the wrong place, at the wrong time. Ya live and learn lol.

Is she showing any signs of getting worse, or any better?

tried getting some new angles for better pics. Trimmed off two almost dead fan leaves at the very bottom. Didn't. See much growth today. Afraid I may of stunted it

She doesn't look deficient in anything really, so it's probably just a water/light issue.

Usually about the 4th day I see results for any change I make. Just let her dry out. It may take longer because the pot is sealed. Adding some holes to let the air around the roots wouldn't be a bad idea either. Or carefully up potting it to a bigger fabric pot with fresh soil around it might help?
