Auto Training?

Beautiful! I want my babies to look like that ♥ Ill add some cal-mag to the pH water I give them today, just in case. It is only on those 2 leaves currently, but I dont want to take any chances to have to go further up. Im already worried about how this one is going to turn out
 
Hey BU2B are you growing this plant currently? I think I saw it in the "show your grow" thread...I'd really like to follow along and see what you do with it (if you are growing now).
 
Scissors or thumb nail? Good job. I only used some Recharge with cal-mag the other night and my runt NL has leaves like yours, lower older leaves. I have current pics but I spent over 5 hours on the phone with Amazon last night, started at 7 pm, ended around 12:30. Murphy's Law strikes again so I haven't loaded the pics to my laptop yet.
 
Got some spikes in today. I feel like I'm hurting my plant/ not doing this correctly, but I'll see where I end up. I removed a couple fan leaves from both as well. I think I have most of the growth sites showing, please let me know if you see any not getting light :)

I wish I could tell you. :doubtful: I want to train Chewy, splay it out, just not sure about a few things, I need to read up. It's looking the best of the three and the youngest, easiest to work with ... if they're ever easy. I just fold and tuck leaves that are blocking buds, on the other two plants. I want to do BU2B's version, mine are all in flower or preflower already. I'm going to work with Chewy the most. The other two will have to tell me what they want to do. My AC hasn't quit running for a few hours and it's going to get hotter this weekend. New ceiling exhaust fan is on the way here, nephew's going to look to see if I can run ducting to the eaves toward the west, it's only a couple feet from the attic opening in the closet. Your RH looks high in one pic, 71%, was that early morning? They're growing fast.
 
This is my 8 week old Northern Lights Auto. I topped the 6th node and have defol'd it pretty heavily a few times. Started training it a bit late but it was very receptive and cooperative. I will definitely start training a bit sooner with the next grow to get them more horizontal earlier.

Edit: The single flower in the center is on the 2nd NL that's a week younger and was not topped or trained. The bush to the right is part of an unruly Afghan.

Lily, I have no smell happening here yet and I've got a much better grow environment than I did the first time. When Mag was growing big colas I'd walk in the front door and suck in the aroma. The forecast for the next week is 90+ every day. House AC at 70, closet doors open, plants at 80 degrees but low RH, 35-40%. Better than burning them up at higher temps with the doors closed to get the RH up, right now. I have to get my tiny humidifier in there later, just spent over 3 hours running a specimen to the vet, pug has a UTI still. Vet said with his rare disease that he WILL get stones again. By age 3.5 he had already racked up $20K in vet bills, he turned 5 in May. Depressing. This was when I got home -

I have to stuff my nose into the plant to get the smell. Your plants are coming along nicely, I don't like that they are so much smaller than my first grow. I've decided to follow the aggressive veg amounts recommended on the GH flora series, id like to have another big plant. I'm unsure why, but the tent is a little warmer l, sitting at the 85f marker. I'm not ready for this heat or humidity. I think I may turn on my exhaust here soon. I can't imagine having to pay so much or worry so much about my animals medical health. I hope your little pug starts to feeling better soon ♡♡
 
Thank you! It comes in tomorrow, I'm excited to hook it up. I'm running out of room for spikes and I haven't quite figured out how to properly use the twist ties for training yet
 
I stuffed my nose in this morning, just smelled like a plant. I gave 1/2 gallon each last time, they need watering/feeding today. I lost yesterday with the vet time, have laundry to finish, housework to do. I'm babysitting a doxie for 10 days starting this weekend, my dogs need their nails buzzed, I have my infusion today, leave in an hour. Wish I could twitch my nose like Samantha in Bewitched.

My pug had puppy strangles before he was 4 months old so he was pre-exiting already, for insurance. He has the rarest form of stones, it's a metabolic problem so he has to be vegetarian and low protein which has risks to his heart. When the stones debacle happened, bad vet experience but bad laws for pets. I would have had to pay ahead for records, filings and for an atty @ $300-400/hour to drive here from the 'burbs to file and appear each time to only get back what it cost to save him. It took over a year to find an animal rights attorney. I worried every waking minute of every day about the debt, then I was diagnosed with kidney cancer. Having the kidney removed wasn't bad at all, I had surgery in Joliet.

I wish all 3 of my plants were like Chewy. It's almost self-training right now, I need to get the pots in the kitchen again to work on tie downs and trim some leaves. While I hibernate from the heat and babysit dogs.
 
Watering update :) I decided to water them 2 qts each at 4am this morning. Ive decided to follow the aggressive veg recommend nutes on the GH Flora series. Removed some fan leaves from both plants this morning, hopefully making way for air and light to reach the growth tips without hurting my babies too much.
