did you trim / manicure her ?
I keep finding conflicting views on trimming autos ?
I started to trim her before she flowered. I chickened out after trimming a few and decided to let Mother Nature take over.
Next time I’ll know better. 
thank you for your input.
i aim to harvest around Nov 5 and I have never put her to the scissors. i will send a pic tomorrow …maybe there will be some sunshine.

I have 2 Gold Leaf photos that were sent to me by mistake. I’ve been growing them in pots in our guest bathroom since the beginning of April. I didn’t switch them to 12/12 until the end of July because I thought they were autos.
I bought a timer for my lights and covered the window with a black trash bag to keep the room totally dark when the lights are off.
I’m hoping to harvest them next week. Fingers crossed!

Looking good @James68!
How weeks into flowering when this photo taken?
about 2 weeks AND now I have bud rot …boo hoo 
Most likely a dehumidifier should resolve the problem?

do you know about Trichomes and the colours thereof ?
I am on the dehumidifier hint…thanks for the nudge.
I am informed of Trichomes and the colors, clear amber and opaque white. The colors indicate THC levels.
Greetings my Prince
I followed your advice and bought a de-humidifier, this de-humidifier has a built in Sterilising Ioniser made by Samsung which kills the Botrytis spore and you can recycle the water it pulls out of the atmosphere.
I send you great thanks for your salient advice

Congratulations!
The de-humidifier should resolve your mold problem.
As a precautionary measure, from my readings, after having dried the buds, you might consider rinsing the buds in a bath, blending one cup 3% hydrogen peroxide in four-five gallon water.
