Hey fella's!
I recently had to move my ZZ skittles from her sunny spot to another room, in here she gets about 5-7hours of indirect sunlight from 7-8 till 15ish
The rest is indirect sunlight because the sun turns to the other side of the house.
So first of all, is this enough light for her? I can't really hang any more lights and since it's a projectroom it only has 1 lightbulb at the ceiling.
She is about 76 days old
A ZZ skittles autoflower.
I normally feed her every watering but she has been losing a lot of fan leaves. I gave her a bit more nutes then usually and she got nuteburn so i think she's dropping leaves because she's at her end.
I hope you guys can give me any advice on how much Longer she should go, how i am doing, what i need to be doing etc etc

Looks like she still has another 10 days or so. You want to have 70-90% red hairs vs white. Harvesting now will give you a nice light high, good for morning and housework, but lacking that hit-you-like-a-freight-train quality we all love.
 
Also, you can snip the fan leaves when they start dying. They're taking up energy at this point that you really want going into the buds, but only cut the dying ones for now.
 
These are the Windows, the room is normally still being world on but for now it's stoppen for a while

Dying fan leaves are dying due to the fact that they are feeding the rest of the plant. They don’t take energy away from the buds...they are feeding those buds.
 
I think you have closer to 3 weeks left on those, personally. My guess is another week or two for the pistils to finish curling into the buds and the remainder to pack on some final weight and ripen.
 
Allright, what do you think about the window situation? It should be do able right?
It depends on how much light the plant gets. There’s a guy here who has a grow going that only gets window light and his plants look amazing, but the plant I have growing in the window in my home office for fun grows very slowly.
