They're lookin good Deltsy! From what I can see you have good shades of green and new growth seems to be nice and firm. I noticed some droopy leaves in one of the pics towards the lower part of it. May be some minor overwatering. I'm a newb too and I dont ever plan on doing a soil grow, but still...gotta show some love. For your 1st attempt at growing you're doing a kickass job it seems and your ladiez seem to be diggin your setup. My thing now after all I've seen with our DWC is to try to identify causes of deficiencies and whatnot to try to get better lulz. The growth is so vigorous after the first couple of weeks that they literally look different EVERYDAY and the hardest part is playing the 'wait game' :( Nywayz, there's ya some feedback ;) Swing by the thread and leave the ladiez some love sometime. As alwayz, Happy Growing and good day to you sir!

The only reason I would consider growing something non autoflowering after this experience would be due to yield. Im hoping for an ounce per plant. If I get that
then I will grow nothing but autoflower strains. Any other autoflowering strains I should try after this?

If your going to get serious about autoflowers you should set up a breeding run.
So you don't have to shell out hard cash on a small pack of seeds.
It's seriously the best thing to do, since you can't effectively clone autos.

I'm following this thread completely, because I'm interested in Green O' Matic.
So don't worry man, I'm with you.

They look like they're either getting too hot (Poor ventilation, high ambient temperature, maybe it's very hot in your area?)
Or not enough water.

They should be nice and perky. Each leaf will respond to it's environment differently. It's easy to read leaves on small plants like yours.
As long as each leaf is getting a balanced diet, enough light, water, and cool enough temperatures, they should be perky.

They're looking great though, give us an update when you see little baby colas forming.

Are you finding all the help you need?

everything is going great so far C.Indica. A couple of them have now started their colas so its really getting excited. What exactly do you mean by a breeding run. Im very intrigued because I've been paying good coin like you said for seeds. Thanks for all the help its greatly appreciated. Oh and as far as temperature the tent temperature sits at exactly 75 degrees and the air outside the tent is central air conditioned at a steady 72 degrees. The humidity inside the tent is consistantly 50%. If you can recommend any tweaks to this please don't hesitate to let me know.

Hey... Deltsy i've been following your grow as well. Just never got around to posting anything until now. Looking good by the way. I grow autoflowers as well and I see that you ordered Blue Himalaya, I just got done growing that and the smoke is great man. But what he meant by a seed run is, instead of buying all feminized seeds. You should buy a pack of regular seeds, that way you can come across a male. Keep the male completely seperated from your female plants unless you want to pollinate them all. Male plants have little ball sacs (pollen sacs) on them and once they open up, they get all over the white hairs of the females. When this happens you will have tons of seeds man. Never have to buy another seed again. You can just keep the male in there with the female if you want him to make love to all your girls. lol (6 plants will get you about 1000 or more seeds)or you can separate him and collect the pollen by placing a piece of white paper underneath it to catch all of the yellowish pollen that will drop out of those sacs when they open up. Then rub some of that stuff on a select few buds. Very easy and saves you a ton of $!
P.S. You only need one male to do this. So as others arise, which i'm guessing you'll get a couple more, I would chop them down and dispose of em.
