Hey, I attached a pic of both on the same day, let me know what you think. Others told me left is slower by about 2 weeks.. hence my thought process

Dude I appreciate the pics top man. Both plants , one more then the other are at least 4 weeks away , trust me. I’m not sure where your getting two half weeks away, I’d give them at least 4 weeks and 6 weeks for the smaller . What lights you using ? That lady looks more Sativa so your in for a lot longer.Hey, I attached a pic of both on the same day, let me know what you think.

I would say that slow drying is the most effective for the best product. Drying too fast will not allow all the chemical processes the buds do within that 9-14 day span thats needed. Rushing it takes away from the optimal quality. I like to go 50/50. Temp and humidity. Keep it in the dark with a nice soft air flow. You won't regret it. Just my opinion. To each their own my man. Happy growing

also see if you can pull the branches horizontal so light can reach lower part , tie them down put holes in your pots, your gonna have a lot of bud not really developed because the leaves are covering the lower bud sites

Thanks man! I'm not sure on the time scales haha, I am in no rush at all, just would like a nice smoke in the end
viperspectra p600 I'm using. Unfortunately, no space! These two ladies are taking up all the space I have, diddnt anticipate two to fill up my whole tent lol. Would defoliation help - i know not usually recommended for autos

One of us is confused
i been told one lady is roughly 1 month away from finishing but the other lady is 2.5 weeks behind the other so around 1.5 months for that to finish... hope this doesn't confuse anymore hahahaha

Lol yeah that makes sense. Although when your thinking of cropping put up another picture so can take a look. I’ve let plants run even where there very ripe just to allow others to catch up never had issues.One of us is confused

Personally wouldn’t defoliate, just do some research on LST for your next run. Maybe try photoperiod plants next time? If you decide to run with photos look up FIM technique, helps with the LST.Thanks man! I'm not sure on the time scales haha, I am in no rush at all, just would like a nice smoke in the end

Wouldn't letting the first one go too ripe cause orange tri's which is a more paranoia buzz?? Just getting for my pre grow research. Happy to be corrected

Amber trichomes more sedative defo not para buzz, cut plants early and you’ll get a racing high which is not the one in my honest. There’s nothing wrong dude with letting it get too ripe, I’ve had loads of plants I’ve let go longer when they’ve been ready and it’s been totally fine .Wouldn't letting the first one go too ripe cause orange tri's which is a more paranoia buzz??

Of course, ill post pics in like 2 weeks or so! Ah nice, I'm about 40 miles west of London! I chose LED to run more efficient, I did shit loads of research before and saw hps run hot and cost on electric, I barely notice my LED on the electric bill... maybe £5-10 a month more
I'm using sensi bloom a+b, carboload and overdrive

For what it's worth half my auto is in the trash I defoliated so much. It would have been a leaf ball otherwise.

Yeah get what your saying on leccy bill. Hps for a 400 watt plus extraction is about 30£ a month, which for the return you get on yield would pay for itself. Highly recommend. Sensi bloom a and b sweet, I wouldn’t be using carbo load or overdrive right now dunno if you are? From my experience dude plants don’t need loads of different stuff, the basic nutes A and B and maybe a bloom stimulator after the stretch in flowering is more than enough. Basically if plants look healthy don’t need to mess around too much. Anyways I got shit to do my end so I’ll catch you soon

Never grown autos personally, what lighting was you using ? Go to all that time effort , photo plants can’t beat them
