Things look pretty good I'd say, this week I started seeing an obvious switch to flowering on most of my plants. I did a little LST to help even out the canopy a bit but probably will back off so I don't stress the plants too much as they are starting to bud. Next year I'm gonna do LST only, no topping, and start training a week earlier.

What do folks like to give their auto plants during veg/flower transition? This week they got a batch of aerated compost tea, and a little fish hydrolysate. Will probably start giving them a little phos bat guano soon but will keep up the fish for another week or two to try to get as much size as I can during stretch. As this is my first auto grow - do folks typically find that autos stretch a lot during weeks 4-6? Should I throw up some trellising about now?

So here is a garden overview on day 28, followed by close ups of each strain (there are a couple of seedlings in the background that I tried direct seeding into my bed a few weeks late...those are only at 2 weeks and I won't be trying that again):

This last lady is a Walter White runt, although she is not giving any signs of going into flower yet so I'm optimistic she will catch up. Just LST on her, no topping.

Keep giving the nitrogen although the grow from wat I've seen over the years autos need more nitrogen in comparison to a photo in flower now I'm not saying to give it the same as u are now but let's say u use 2tbsp per gallon do like 6 tea spoons as far as the phosphorus/potassium is concerned I start with a tea spoon roughly and slowly bring it up depending on how plant looks lmk if u need anything will offer a hand anytime

Hey thanks Fitzy...I have been feeling like they aren't quite getting as big as I expected given that the plants are in a shit ton of soil outdoors. I hear everyone talking about how autos don't feed heavy and so I've been airing on the light side for the whole grow so far. Just yesterday I gave them about 2 cups of fish hydrolysate and they seem to really like it. I suspect I could have been a little heavier on N this whole time...in any case, I was totally thinking along these lines and I will follow your advice!
