Hi all

This is my first autoflower grow under 250hps, it is about 8/9 weeks old and budding nicely, seems a big one thou as it is an autoflower...

just wondered what you think of my first attempt? and how long do you think I have left?

Cheers P

not bad dude good grow my advice would be to LST your next plant, just tie down the main cola so all bud sites are same height that way you will yield alot more.
as for when its ready it looks like it needs 2-3 more weeks yet all them big white hairs will fill out with bud and start to turn brown when its close to ready but the best way to tell it by the colour of the trichomes -clear = no good, cloudy = nice stone. and amber = more of a body high and most people would chop when the trichomes start to turn amber

its autoflower when the plants go's into flower without switching the lights to 12/12 in other words it will flower no matter what light cycle you are on, if you find one not going into flower and youve given it ample time too you might want to switch the lights to 12 hours a day to make in flower, you may have to keep the lights at 12/12 until harvest then tho. as for tieing them down now i would say its too late but you could tie them slightly down but dont do it all at once or you will break your plant. the best time to tie it down would be an hour after you have watered them, they will be more flexible after they have been watered. good luck i hope it go's well for you.
