Hi, this is my first grow I have 3 girls growing that are in flower. They’re about 2-3 weeks into flower, I just wanted some input on if this is what they should look like or if there should be more weight on the buds, or the pistils have changed color too quickly. Anything helps! Thanks!

That's what they should look like. Watch that tip burn and those tacoing leafs tho. Your plants are hot and some over fed
I’ve been trying to figure out why they’re folding like that, I just haven’t been able to put my finger on it. Even before I started feeding they started to fold. You think it could be something else? As for the tip burn it’s only that one plant, should I put it in the shade?

They are doing the taco cuz they are hot. You need to water more the sun is intense and they are hot. The tip burn is to high ec/ppm
would you recommend misting the plants? Or they just flat out need more water?

If they are hot they are drinking lots, misting works but you should probably double your watering schedule period, esp as they are just drinking more by the day, and drop your nutrient strength like 25% with watering more. They will love it and that tip burn will stop
Will do, I’ve just been scared of overwatering. How much longer do you think before harvest? And how much do plants this size usually yield? I appreciate your help by that way. Thanks for taking the time to chat!

I'm not the guy to tell how much it's gonna yeild lol. Some others will try to tell you at 10 days whats its gonna yeild. Ballpark average, new grower, if you keep em healthy, the beans r good genetics, 3-6 ounces a plant
Honestly they ain’t that big lol. 19” is that tallest one. Thanks for the honesty though. I’m hoping to at the very least get an Ounce out of each of them.

Your outside. They will be dense. Make sure you let them flower for 11 12 weeks you'll get 3 a piece
Wait that long for autoflower? I’m not in a rush at all, but I just want to be sure lol. Should I be looking for signs to harvest or just wait the 11 weeks regardless?

When the trics are mostly red on the actual bud, and no more white hairs are produced. Usually 10 14 days longer than you think
Let me clarify. Most people don't know when flower truly begins to start their count down. Then the recommended breeder flower time is usually a week shorter than you need because you didn't hunt the ideal pheno and all that. Then most say chop at all milky, specks of amber. 35 to 60% amber way better. Expect 2 weeks longer than you thought

Question : Do you own a pet gorilla or yeti ?
There are a hella of lot of hairs all over flowers .
Alright. Do I go based off the top cola? Or should I harvest different areas at different times?
People say not to overwater, but what they really mean is that the soil shouldn't be saturated all the time. It's ok to water to saturation - I do it all the time. You can dig your finger into the soil and feel whether it's damp. If it feels completely dry right before you water it, it probably isn't getting enough water. It took me a while to learn that, mainly because people say, "Don't overwater cannabis!" - without explaining what they mean.
I recently learned also that when cannabis gets hot it transpires water through the leaves to get cooled by evaporation. So if it's fairly dry where you live, plants can suck up a lot of water during a hot day.
Maybe you can help me with the question above your reply? When ready for harvest do I go off the main cola or everything together? Or do I harvest different colas at different times?
