Agreed. All the rest cept for the first fast and vast planted looks fine. But I wish it would make up its mind to either grow or die. Lol.

Of course it would do this with my first auto. Do you have a phase by phase you use to grow these guys? I soak them in water for 5 hours then drop the seed into rapid rooter and put them in a dome until they sprout, then when I see the tap root I transplant them into their home for the rest of their lives. Am I doing something wrong? When do you start to feed them btw?

If you are using FF happy frog, you will probably need to wait about 3-4 weeks to feed. Are you using the FF trio, BB, GB, TB? I used FFOF and the trio for my first grow. I still have 2 of these to chop.
 
I dont feed my plants till about week 4 to 5 of life.and i soak all my beans in water for 2 to 3 days then into tissue.till i have a long taproot.i then ease the shell off.pot the bean then straight into the tent. Works great for me everytime;)
 
Also, I have a JH that was planted 9 days after the other 3 that were planted in her "class". The harvest for this one looks like it will be at least 4 weeks later than her classmate. It lagged pretty bad and ended up being almost 6 weeks behind rather than 9 days. Point is, it came around after looking like it was a bust. It is the biggest and best of the 3 JH that were run side by side - she's just taking her sweet ass time to mature :)
 
Or stick her in a tiny pot and sit her in the corner of the tent she what she pulls then stick a new bean in her place;) juat a thought and no loss;)

and this is the simple process of completely cutting/or pinching the new growth, correct?
 
Beast,

When you cure, do you put a hygro in the jar? I think I blew my cure. After 4 days of drying, I cut and put the buds in jars to cure. I added a digital hygro to each jar. My RH in the jar has not risen above 49%. I have read that anything under 55% and there will be no cure. I have 6.5 oz that will probably taste like chlorophyll and give me a sore throat :)
 
Schtiggy i dont cure mate i dry my weed in boxes for 12 days.then i lay it out on shelfs on newspaper in a dark cupboard.then i smoke away and revisit the cupboard when im running low lol;) my weed always taste like it smelt on the plant.thats my aim everytime top quality buds;)

Hey Schtiggy, not to disregard the advice of beast, I was just reading some info on Boveda packs, for hydrating overly dried bud, which should bring RH up enough to continue cure. You've probably heard of this anyway.

*by no means am I trying to give advice to the people I seek advice from*

Hi Yeats,

No, please feel free to chime in. I am still learning too. I thought the Boveda packs would only maintain RH and were just for storage. I read that they would not allow the cure to restart once it stopped. I actually thought that once the cure stopped (below 55%) that there was no way to restart it. can you direct me to what you read? If I would have had them to start, I would probably be fine.
