After a few days of stomping about and watching all my work drying up before my eyes and trawling through forums seeking info and advice i decided to chop them back and stick them back on veg in a seperate tent i picked all balls off and they never grew any more so il give them a chance to reveg and started some autos20191108_182502.jpg20191108_183506.jpg

thought id better update, its been a funny few wk some ups and downs firstly i noticed growth slow down- not good! a) i had topped the pots up because they were a bit low putting more coco in up to the 1st leaf it was too much and smothering them b) i was struggling getting my temps in the sweet spot im havin to run my extractor 15 min on 45 min off to keep temps up i also had to cut some 1ft squares of thermoboard to stand on because the cold from the garage floor was cooling the rootball too much causing some kind of lockout but since righting these wrongs we have explosive growth boom!!20191214_193047.jpg

Nothing much to tell all plodding along nicely, the three eldest girls are doin their thing shortys in full flower she didnt have much of a stretch i think because i stressed her by putting her pot touching the radiator i transplanted her because there was steam coming out her pot! but the other 2 have stretched considerably i thought autos are meant to be small plants!!!20191220_103601[1].jpg
