This is an autoflowering super skunk, i planted the seed to this plant (approximately give or take 3 or so days) Dec 9 . It popped about again give or take Dec 13. I was always told these plants are harvested within 2-3 month seed to finish... Well I'm wondering when I should start seeing buds forming on this plant. And when should I switch my lights to 12/12 if it doesnt appear when its supposed to. And as well on this plant I've been using the pruning method to remove whats under the plant (like the fan leaves and pocorn buds that don't get much light) to focus growth on the areas getting the most light from my limited 55w CFLs (I try to keep them as close as possible to it) to the top of plant. As well I've read (and the reasoning and argument behind it seems sound to me), supposedly pinching your stems to where they pop but to where they repair themselves and this makes the limbs stronger as well as making bigger buds and thc is created in cannabis as a defense mechanism and due to the stress factor it's heightened later in the flowering stage. And speaking to the pro pruning crowd, how does what I've done look. I've only taken two of the lower fan leave branches off and I'm wondering if taking off the next level would be too much? Keep in mind these leaves are getting very little light because my CFLs lack penetration and the tops of my plants have overgrown and are blocking these leaves entirely. I also sometimes will cut a fan leave halfway if it means a pre bud site is going to get more direct sunlight. My soil is miracle grow. My temps run from 75 to 83 stays usually 80. Humidity ranges from 25-45 I use no nutrients as I chose miracle grow for the simplicity of not having to add of do anything to the soil (my next investment will be done different).
