These are probably the best pics I can get at the pot level. I may need to take the SCROG off so I can take the plant out.
Day 36 now is into the 6th week.

And don't know whether the plan is starting to turn purple or if I have to worry about balls.

Took the SCROG off to get them out and there isn't that much defoliation needed at this stage.
They are turning out much shorter and smaller than I expected but I was expecting them not to fit in the tent. Guessing that the 2 gallon pots does a great job of controlling the size of them.
Now I am wondering have I made them too short. At what stage should I stop training.

Still only 15cm / 6 inches tall, just going to let them grow for a bit.
Will tie down branches if they stretch too much
I too am struggling with the too short factor. I am wondering if I need to try raising my lights and increasing intensity. I know ppfd still needs to be in a ballpark range, but I wonder if less heat....less intensity, idk i'm not a scientist hahah but I hope you get what I mean.
Yeah them babies sure were short!!!! But this doesn't look bad at all IMO. They got enough height to the branches that it can breathe under the canopy. Height at this point...I guess could marginally help lower nugs with more light hitting from the sides. But its not per se a problem. Your autos are doing WAYYYY better than my mutant auto and i'm only a week? behind. My auto is 1/4 the size of one of your plants with only 3 colas

Day 40 coming along ok so far.
Looks like the stretch seems to have stopped and the girls have stayed pretty short.

If this is day 40 from seedling, then its just starting the flower stage. You should have....5 weeks? maybe 6 or 7 left? I've read of many people saying their grow went 1-3 weeks past what was advertised. With what you have now for 1 week flowers is pretty good. Nurture her right and you could get fat corn on the cob.

Looking good. That squat compact structure looks genetic. Im growing a Mocha Berry that is compact.

Yeah day 40 from seed, about day 10/12 from the start of flowering.
Yeah reckon I've got about 4 weeks maybe a little more.
By main concern now is being away for a week and they will be flying solo.
I've got a smart drip watering system I can turn on remotely.
The plan is after about 3 days I will water enough to saturate again, but can also using the smart soil sensors.
My only concern is that I was planning for these away waterings to be no nutes as Biobizz it only last a day after being mixed.
Any other thoughts

I topped the purple one and just LST on the Cream Cookies
if you could put your biobizz on a drip into the reservoir that your smart drip uses. Then you'd be able to drip biobizz in and half hour later drip feed your plants. Don't know if you can engineer that with what you got or if you'd have to buy double/everything again.

No what I have is just one inlet to the smart pump. I can then branch in into 2 and then I will have 3 drippers for each plant that are pushed into the soil.
How long until you leave for the week? If you can let them go a HAIR dryer than you normally do, and give a healthy watering just before you leave you shouldn't have issues.

Just less than a week
Do you think it is worth upping the BioBizz nutes or leave as normal.

Day 41
Some more defoliation and LST to spread out the bud sites leave a little more space in the centre where there are some buds catching up to the edges

Normal for sure. It'd be a bummer to come back to a deficiency of some kind. Be even worse to come back to excess having locked your babies out.
Your girls look so awesome bro! You're gonna have pretty good yields I think. Just imagine each of those tops being a corn on the cob.

Yeah I think I am going to go with a normal watering with feed before I go.
I will connect up the dripper with a 10l of water which should I enough to do 2 waterings while I am away
