The others all died so sad!! I ordered new 5 gallon fabric pots for her final home. lie-Loe-Learn
Ok So here are my girls. 6 DDA, My first time growing autos.
They are 49 days old and 2 have been topped( One was by accident whilst doing some lst whilst very drunk, the other on purpose at node 3 on day 17, i seem to be getting better results from the accidental topping lol. Either way topping these has not worked for me and will impact on final yield)
16 lt fabric pots
mars hydro 1200 AND 600W HPS
6inch outake with speed and temp control
1.2mx1.2mx2m tent
Canna nutrients started at week 2 1/4 strength and moved upto 1/2 strength now. A+B, Bloom Accelerator, Pk13/14, Rhizotonic and canazyme, They are now being fed twice a day with around 10 to 20% run off, once in the morning before i go to work and again when i get back. Ph is kept between 5.8 and 6.3
Temps Run Between 75 and 82 lights on and drops to around 65 lights off on the night.
Rh was kept between 55% 70% first 3 weeks and now is steady 30% to 40%.
DDA 1
DDA 2 ( Few of the fans have extra growth )
DDA 3
DDA 5 ( The accidental drunk butchering )
Lights, Camera, Action.
For some reason i have no pictures of 4 and 6, or i was to high and forgot to take some, I forget.
4 is pretty much the same as 3, a stretcher, few days ahead in flower production tho, and 6 is like 5 just a little shorter.

So...After I added fans and adjusted things in both tents... I could hear the girls holler at me..
So DD2 got a haircut just now..Also did the White Widow
Day 15.... So far so Good

Hi everyone 
Today i need your help. This is my 2nd time ever growing weed and i have a question or two. If you take a look at the Pics if made,
How long will she need to be finished?
Does it make sense at this Point to reduce N to 0 and just keep giving large amounts of P and K?
If you look at an overall Picture, you can see Parts of the Plant beeing greener as the others. It´s like that for weeks now, any advice? Too much P? Not enough N? Other Parts are looking dark green, some are very yellow at it´s leafes.
Look at this Picture and compare it to the others This bud seems to be much further then all the others. Is that normal?
Few Pictures are with Flashlight, the rest is in direkt sunlight so colours are natural
It is not like i dont want to give her the timne she needs. But she is taking much more time then expected and it gets very tight inside my Closet. There is another DD and a Blue Dream in flowering which will yield lower when i got no room for training
Edit: She is at day 78 today

Crocodoc, I feel for you. 
I had one go almost 90 days once, but she wasn't anywhere near as tall as yours.
Alright, my gut reactions: The leaf color is out of my range of expertise, but she's so close to harvest do you want to concern yourself with it, other than to identify the cause? Have you tried epsoms?
As to how long, my brain says at least another week, if not longer. Her pistils are just now starting to turn with vigor, and I try to hold off until most of the ones on the canopy have turned.
Having said that, you're within the harvest window, so she would be a candidate for harvest at any time IMHO. Your need for space to accomodate two more plants will be the driving force in this decision, I suspect. I took one at this stage when my husband was dying and I wanted him to pass in style, and I can assure you I had some of my most intense highs with that harvest.
Hmmmmm...... It hadn't occurred to me that something in the terpene profile at this stage might potentiate the cannabinoids in a way we haven't considered. This might be worth taking one early and comparing it to one left to the ultimate end. I have two that will play that game with me growing right now, as a matter of fact, and DDA7 just started blooming.
There's already signs of color.
The lower buds on DDA6 have begun to stain. *contented sigh*
Those intense highs I remember may be more tied to my emotional tone and my body's chemical reactions to the drama of death. If you can, hold off as long as possible. They've been known to pack on some serious weight in the final week.

My Condolences to your husbands death 
I´m not exactly sure about how long she is away from harvest. Thats why I ask. Pistins are turning Orange one some Buds, but on the other Hand, you can see them getting bigger daily. Thats the case for the last, lets say 10 Days. Here are some Trichrome Pics from the Buds with the most orange Pistins
I would say some Cloudy, most of them Clear. this tells me it is not to close to harvest Day, if i´m right

I agree, and nice trichomes shots. I wait for cloudy, and on my plants that seems to happen overnight. You're close my friend.
Thank you for the condolences. We're eternal beings. It took a while to understand that, but I'm there now. Being part of this community saved me from the shock. Is there any wonder I can't do enough for all of you?

If I may...
.... With autos you want to top early, but not too early. You want them to recover as quickly as possible to keep the accelerated timelines from working against you. This span around 14 days appears to be sweet spot with auto, at least to our experience. They bounce back and thrive. Later than that and you run the risk of stunting the growth and earlier you run the risk of stopping them in their tracks. Four to five nodes works, most of the time. As we all know, cannabis can sometimes be finicky and you end up with a runt. We love the strain so much this never slows us down.

I decided to boost her with Triacontanol today. So she got a full dose of Hesi Boost today. On my last DD Auto, that instantly doubled the amount of water she drank. She have to be ready at the end of this month. I will report about if this worked this time too

I'd never heard of Triacontanol until you posted that. Intriguing. I'll be watching for the report. More water suggests more blossoms. More blossoms mean more oil.
They where at 15 days...So seemed like the perfect time...
If I may...

You can use it when you grow organic too. It is made out of alfalfa. Don´t know how exactly cause i´m not growing organic, but i guess google knows everything

Could you recommend a light schedule? I'm doing the lantern thing now.
Also, how do they like the nutes?
