@EluGrows I'd be surprised if that's a result of nute burn, without hearing more about how you did or didn't apply nutes. It looks like something came in contact with those 2 lower leaves earlier in its life. Nute burn usually doesn't select just 2 random leaves. Particularly in that symetrical fashion.
i used distilled water, 2ml calmag, 2.5ml micro,2.5 grow, 1ml bloom, in 1 gallon, poured the whole gallon and got 10/20 percent runoff, 2nd week seedling, now i have spots on another, they start off light and turn to rust

What's in your dirt? I use stuff that doesn't require nutes until after a month or so. I'll give them nutes only a few times in their entire life cycle. And I still get a bit of burn on the tips of one particularly sensitive plant. It's obvious, and will appear the day after I feed.

Any chance you're spilling or splashing onto the leaves when feeding? If not, I'd tend to agree with Frank and Matt about the nute burn. Giving nutes to seedlings is a risky proposition, and typically not recommended.

On a related note, I never saturate an entire pot of dirt that contains a seedling. No need.

Two pots have cocoa/perlite and 1 has HF/Perlite and here are the latest pics

Hey guys.

I think the end is near. Trichomes look close to all milky with the appearance of amber here and there. What you reckon, chop chop? They dont seem to be swelling anymore.

Sorry to ping you Frank, but what you reckon? I know you have an eye for this thing.

Gotta love the s10+ camera mmmm
So frosty and in such high def.
Nice buds. Looks like some amber in the scopes, or is that the lighting?

Are you sure those are amber and not the lighting? The bud pics look milky and just starting to bend. The tent pics look like the hairs have fully receded, though. Tough call, how old are they?

Day 73 since popped out the ground with first few leaves. (Not since the seed went in the ground) since the seed germed maybe 75 - 76 days

Edit: and yeah, I can see a few amber when looking closely with the loupe in person

If those really are amber, you are in a safe zone to harvest. It will only amber up more from here. I haven't seen many autos taking more than 80-90 days and if you say they quit swelling, they are most likely done.

Nice, thanks buddy. I think I'm just gunna round it up. It's been a great grow and I'm happy with the results.
Thanks for helping me decide.

No problem, sorry I couldn't be more help. Congrats on the harvest. Frank should have an alarm clock that goes off when an autoflower question gets posted.

For all those that have been following:

Thanks for tagging along. Any advice has been very much appreciated. This is my second time growing and I'm over the moon with the results.
Dont beat me up about the trimming if it is bad also haha. Second time doing that as well. Into the tent they go to dry. (I have left both intake and exhaust fan on, is this ok?)
I have put the trim straight into the freezer ready to make butter when I feel like it.
Hopefully will have something to try in a week then into the jars for the cure!! Smoke report to follow in a few weeks.

Now enough jibber jabber. Take a look...

Edit: guess the DRY weight?

Second edit: the lemon zkittles smelt of what I would call typical citrus weed smell and produced sticky, dense buds the lsd 25 on the other hand, as I started to tease the buds, this scent started oozing out in the form of this rich, sweet, gassy berry smell. Almost toxic in the way it lodged in the back of your nostrils and throat. She stinks! Bright pink bits here and there with a purple hue all over. Really let her genetics flourish at the end and I wasnt expecting the pink at all. The purple was a welcome sight towards the end.
Overall the zkittles was easier to grow, and are denser more full buds. The lsd is a bushy making it hard to manage and the buds arent so full. But damn do they smell and holy moly are they sticky. I bet they both smoke awesome.

I've finally found someone who has some Mephisto beans in stock as
Mephisto seems to have unexpectedly have its websites down...I grabbed my Double Grape at Canadian Autoflower.ca ...just figured I'd pass along as a couple friends had asked..

Everyone loves Mephisto, but I find getting them can sometimes be tough
