some nutes dont no what make but was told for vegging
and bottle of ace of bud for flowering
a tub of ona gell

well it s a start and like i say its only a pratice run really and any thing smokeable for myself is a bonus.
well i got 2 seeds from nirvana , northern lights automatics just to try i read that they not so good but only after i ordered them .
anyway through reading a bit on auto seeds and how to and how to and how to i germed them and planted them and soon relised my pot was to small so i read a bit on lst ing and tryed a bit of this .

Your leaves look a little pale. However you have a ton of vegetative growth.
Which just might mean you are adding too much when you feed, but need
to feed more often.

Is there a label on the nute bottle? Or the light soil bag.

Maybe someone can see something I am missing, I'm new to this.
But some specifics of what and when and how much would be helpful.

A close up of some of the pale leaves, and the any other discolorations might help.

That hole in the leaf worries me, bugs can be a real problem.

But overall, they seem fairly healthy.

Welcome to AFN. Moved your thread over to the New Growers forum where we can better help you through your first grow.

Your plants look nice. How often are you feeding them and at what strength?

hi and thanks fella for the input , first i have to confess the wee hole in leaf was my doing when stringing plant. ill get name of nute next few days .
i have only feed theses twice now and has been with a 5 day gap . i am putting 1 tea spoon of nute for 3 liters of water ,
is this to much ? to often ? any how heres a few more pics sorry best i can do for now

Autos tend to be a bit nutrient sensitive so care should be taken to not feed to much. I don't see any signs of that with your plants, if anything maybe a bit underfed, but that could just be the lights throwing the color off. Generally 1/4 of the recommended strength to start, slowly increasing it to 1/2 strength. Some strains can take a bit more but most are happy at 1/2 strength. Get a feel for your pots when they are almost completely dry and only water/feed again when they feel light. Depending on how much moisture your soil retains, that is usually every 3-5 days for maturing plants, so sounds like you're okay.

I would suggest you take your pictures under natural light so we can see the true color of the leaves.

well im pretty happy so far with this pratice run , its so i can get the feel of things a little before i go all out and get more equip getting as much tips and hints for all you wise and wonderful people in here. taking notes as i go along and cheers muddy for the soil drying tip and the photo 1 as well . im taking for granted the pups are females ofcourse please conform

 

[Muddy]

Yep, they are girls. If you had any males the difference would have been very obvious by now.

What ya think

ok so im on day 41 and for what i have i think and hope every thing on this pratice run looks good. im thinking there is to much big fan leaves taking up space ,maybe cut some of ? to let a bit more light in the undergrowth
anyway hoping i get a few more hints and opinions coming my way
few pics so all can see and advise
cheers

personally i dont cut my fan leaves that block new growing shoots, i just tuck them underneath the shoots that they are shading. The only time that i cut any leaves or shoots off is when i strip my plants "lollipop"
