Tips for faster ripening in the last couple weeks?

(Autoflowers)
Dim the light? More dark hours? Colder temps? Lower rh?
I got these autos that gotta wrap up and get dryed and jarred before i travel for t-day. Theyve been at 20/4 light cycle.

Hard to say with autoflowers.
Most are unpredictable.

But yes, I’d cut back the light to try.
Lowering the RH can increase resin production in some plants.

Maybe drybacks?
Hell idk bud. You’re kinda at the mercy of her clock…still.

I’m pretty sure going to straight 12/12 with dry backs will make them finish faster.
How long ago did you start them? What is the length of time they say?

I know when I talked to atlas about speeding up fast photos he said to cut back on water at the end. I figured similar things for autos also

@blowdout2269 I was merely seconding what you said!!

Pretty much decided that outdoor in ny is fast photo and autos. Had a terrible year this year between septoria and bud rot.

I’m thinking I want to take some of clones I got and start making my own fast photo plants.

Would love to see how they are coming out. Especially since a member just put up a bunch of mephistos packs for trade

How much time do you have left before you have to cut?

Do I ever?

Didn’t the private lounge get removed?

I figure i can give em about 12 days to maybe 2 weeks. Then 10 or more days hanging and a few days trimming puts me close to deadline.
Bout 12 weeks from seed to chop.

Just something to think about. If you have to leave before you get done trimming you can put semi dry weed in the freezer. It will pause the process until you pull it back out.
It takes some pressure off of getting it all done.

I think you’re gonna be fine.
85-90 days should be sufficient.
I’ve had many autos showing like 10% amber, the going to like 40 within a day.

Just dont dick your cure!
