My plant so far

After going through various issues as a noobie, it's been almost 2 months of progress and here's what I have!

My first ever successful grow!!! I am happy that I've managed after so many attempts and so much money I've spent learning how to do it! There's been many ups and downs to it (killing all of my crops). But learning the concept is all there is too it! I'm starting flowering in 2 weeks. I'm going to save up for a new DSLR camera(fk this iPhone lol) so I can do grow diaries. Here's my progress so far. I'll add my previous grow attempts as well.

looks good man all growing is trial and error pretty much with anything we do is a live and learn experience keep us posted

Good job!
That seedling is probably dead by now. It had something called damping off, there was nothing you could do to prevent its death.
Looks like your soil quality might be lacking, MJ does best in the more expensive bagged soils.
Do you have books?
If you don't have or can't afford the books use growweedeasy.com

Good job man. And don't worry about it. I killed a good half dozen plants before I came across these guys and gals. I've now harvested two lots of none too shabby smoke. And well and truly on to my third (potential) harvest.

It's all trial and error. You'll be growing trees before you know it.

Hahah nah, these were my very first attempts like a year ago.

But I'm having a bit of trouble with her..

How often do you water and or feed?

Last pic shows outstanding growth. Think about topping so it keeps a tighter shape and doesn't require a ladder to harvest. Nice work.

Yeah I've topped it, before, (as you can see by the two stem looking things) when I get my autoflower, I'll top like 8 times

DO NOT TOP YOUR AUTO. .. It will die. Google it. You can LST when its young but not much more than that.

Oo, thank dude! Ended up saving me time

False.

I've seen more people screw their auto grows with LST than by topping.

Just asking, by topping an autoflower plant? How does it die? I've just recently started topping/fimming. I recently had an autoflower(bubblegum auto) it didn't go to well because I had a 45w led (idk true wattage) anyways, the bud grew with the veg. By topping it, does it cut off the bid growth too? (Sorry I'm stupid lol, just trying to figure out answers)

autos have a set life cycle... when you top em you take off valuable growth that you are working so hard to achieve. Take a plant that only has 70 days of life, cut it in half at day 25... it has to regrow then flower... never said you cant do it... but most tend to agree that topping autos is not a good idea.

Last pic looks good. I'd top off that pot with soil tho and cover those roots.

This is not true in plant science or my personal experience with autos.

The only thing different is that autos are bred with a variety that is not photosensitive. They flower when they become mature. Not when the dark time increases.

I have lst'd them and they grew back upright with more branching like any flowering plant.

And I had one I caused bad deficiencies with spots all over and yellow leaves. I leached the pots with fresh water and re fed a Grow solution at a lower strength. The plant stalled for a week then resumed growing. It took almost 4 weeks longer than originally expected. Even took its time stacking buds.

Formerly sick plant grew new leaves and yielded a qp anyway.

My first Grow was auto northern lights like many of us and it broke every myth about autos as I made every mistake and ended up with all 5 plants harvested nice.

But only one finished in its projected time.

the large plant looks like its over fertilized to me

anybody else concur?
