Concerned noob looking for feedback

Hi,
10 weeks into the grow, which seems slow to me, and flowering for just over 2 works ... Does this look ok? It's a northern lights auto.

I looks like it's been searching for light for a long time. Window light only?? Stretching.

[Kev100]

Yes, window only

[dirtymike]

Not enough light. Windows filter out elements of light that cannabis needs to regulate growth. A auto flower cultivar need 18 hours of light and 6 hours of dark. They release hormones to stretch to find all it can. Up, up and away with small buds. It spends all its energy to grow stems instead of flower. Full sun or a full spectrum light is your answer.

Thanks. I had a feeling that was the case. I'll move it outside to get more sunlight 👍🏼

[Kev100]

Would it be worth nipping out the smallest buds to improve the more advanced ones? Or is it too late?

[dirtymike]

Auto's are on a tight schedule. They do things rather fast. More light is your answer.

Maybe bend her over a tie her down.

But ceiling height isn't an issue for him if he's taking it outside so no need to try training it and risk it getting stressed.

OP just get more light to it. Autos like lots of light as they are not flower signaled by light duration. They have been genetically altered to flower at a specific timeline. What I've noticed is that they seem to follow a 4 week veg/10 week flower schedule.

As dirtymike mentioned. Autos don't give you much time to fix issues.

NO! Don't stress autos!

Hit her with a broom!

Thanks all. It's actually looking better already, after just one full day in the sun 👍🏼

i took 1 of my seedlings out of the window yesterday and put it in the sun, it grew 3/4 of an in in an afternoon

Hi,
T thought I'd post an update. We've had a run of fantastic sunny weather recently, so she's been getting lots of light, pistils are darkening and curling in, trichomes are 50% cloudy, no sign of them turning amber yet, but all in all I'm pretty optimistic. I reckon she needs another week to ten days. Fingers crossed she isn't full of seeds/comes down with bud rot.
Any last minute advice/feedback appreciated 👍🏼

Not knowing much about these but having grown outdoors mostly Id say you have at least another month to go, at least.

They need a nice full day sunny disposition

[Kev100]

Wow, as much as that! Okay, well fair enough 👍🏼 I guess I should resume feeding for a week or two?

[Bluey]

They appear to be in unusually small pots. What size are they?

[Kev100]

24cm diameter, 22cm tall

[Kev100]

Is it too late to be worth replanting into a bigger pot?

[Bluey]

IMHO yes, way too late..but I don't transplant nowdays...used to growing outdoors but not indoors

[Kev100]

What I thought 👍🏼

Be patient 😉. It’s hard not to want to try your product but you’ll be rewarded with more potent and tastier weed. Especially if you dry and cure it properly. Have fun 🤩
