Hey guys on my first ever grow im 56 days in with auto lemon and im curious as to whats going on with my one plant. I read that as it gets closer to the end the bottom fan leaves can wither and fall off. Well the very bottom ones did couple weeks ago then just the other day the next ones did and now the ones above those are doing it one has already fallen while the other is still on but barely. Also it hasnt really budded much its growing but slowly like the very top cola is a little smaller then a gumball and still mostly pastils like almost no green stuff. The colas that grew from the main stem have grown about 3-4 inches and ate budding but not nearly as much as the top mind you im doing lst. Not sure if it is just me or what i know its a thing that takes alot of patience and i am im just afraid i messed skmething up and wasted this plant. I used miracle grow soil with food in it. Havnt seen any bug around it or any holes in it like something is eating it. It has nice color on the rest of the fan leaves. Any advice is welcome. Thanks
 
it sounds like it is on schedule. Patience, Padawan! Remember that time to harvest is counted from time under 12/12, not from seed. Also, it is a given that home growers should add 1 or 2 weeks to the breeders' timetable. They grow under optimal conditions. We do not.

Besides checking the condition of the trics, gently squeeze the buds. if they are full and plump, they are nearing harvest. And they will give off a scent particular to their strain.
 
They are autoflowers so they dont need to have the light cycle switched. I have them set for 18/6 in a green house temp stays around 67-68 and humidity around 43%. Ph is always 6.3-6.5. Iv been really patiwnt i was just curious to make sure i didnt mess up because the buds are barwly even and actual bud mainly the white pastils still but i check today looks like they have more green to them and got bigger a little i was confused because if theu are growing so slow within the next three weeks im not gonna get that much from this plant. Do they speed up and hit like a spurt after so long. My biggest concern was the leaves falling. Thanks for the response
 
I think you are good. I have yet to start my auto seed. (have to make room) But what I've read is that you just leave them alone. Their genetics dictate how fast they will mature. You want those buds nice and plump with visible trics and a great smell coming off them, like ripe fruit (or stinky cat piss, depending on your strain). :laughtwo:
