28.04. - Did notice that my PH adjusted water (saved in a plastic bucket) did start to smell a bit foul, so I mixed a new one. reduced the water frequency to every 12h, but doubled the amount of sprays by doing a second run after a few minutes - managed to get the humidity to 60-70% during dark time by switching off the ventilation. Other than that humidity was 45-50% Temp 22-24Β°C - removed the plastic bottle "domes" and did turn on fan during dark time to start moving the plants a bit. However turned the fan, so it does blow on the wall and not directly on the plants - moved the pots to the corners of the box to further remove the amount of light (was stupid and flipped over one bottle and it fell on plant 1. Her stem now is a bit diagonally, but looks like no damage *phew* *making note* never move pots when you have a humidity dome over your plants^^) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 29.04 - did mix 5l water with boosters and gave 40ml of that mix to each plant: 20ml root complex 8ml powerZyme 1 drop of Supervit - noticed that plant 3 falls behind a lot. it didnt really grow since 27th - no idea why looks healthy otherwise. Maybe builds up more roots? xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 30.04. - outdoor temp did raise to 24Β°C+. Box now is 25-27Β°C. God summer will suck *scared* - still not a lot of change on plant 3. Leafs also strangely are pointed upwards. Color... looks good and healthy though so still no idea... - the other two look good. more darker green, less yellowish (maybe the boosters did work?) However, growth looks a bit slow overall compared to some timelapse videos of other growers - probably either my low-ish humidity or my frequent watering? - reduced the spraying a lot, instead I gave 50ml around each plant. Did decide to try a normal watering with a bit of drain tomorrow. - Saw two tiny flies today (one on the yellow sticky pats, one I killed myself) - maybe fungus gnats? probably should get some nematodes xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 01.05. - First real watering. PH 6.6 , 22.5Β°C Water temp. very slowy gave water untill a little bit of drain was happening each 11L pot fit roughly 2.2L until drain started. - maybe earth wasnt compressed enough? - still very warm outside for beginning of may. Highest temp in growbox was 28Β°C - plant 1 and 2 doing well - plant 3 still isnt really growing well and shows signs of mutation again (only 1 new leaf instead of a pair) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 02.05. no water today slightly lower temps, humidity around 60% during dark cycle, 45% during light cycle changed to 20/4 light cycle xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 03.05. still no water temps around 21-25Β°C same humidity plant 3 gets more strange/mutated every day - probably will be a fail plant 1/2 looking good, also growing in height. Biggest one almost 8 cm now Stems didnt really grow stronger though - is this normal? xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 04.05. still no water nothing changed on temp/humidity pretty sure plant 3 will be a fail.. look at those mutations and the slow growth... plant1+2 keeps stretching, building new nodes.. very dense. Height 7.8-8.9cm

Hi, first grow here. My automatics are at their 16th day above ground. I think I have to top one of my plants to keep her height in check. Where and when should I top her? should I rather only do LST or maybe even wait for now (but they are automatics, so I should be quick?)?

With Autoflowers you want to avoide as much stress to the plant as possible because you are on a set time of growth before its flower. Topping is considered stressful to the plant. However, some people do this and have good success. Personally I always LST my Autoflowers and they turn out amazing. If I were you, I would simply pull down the plant to level out the canopy and keep pulling down the branches as they grow. This will open it up and cause more branches to get better light and in return produce amazing colas all over. You can check out my Banana Purple Punch Diary to see how I LST my plants and then what they grew up to be. I hope this helps.

Looks like my plants are growing towards the wall and not towards the middle where the light should be the best. Why do the plants behave like that and what should I do? Raise the net, rotate some of the plants, then redo the net? Remove the net completely? leave it as it is?

Actually plants tend to be taller when there is lack of light... If in the middle you have the brightest light that's normal that branches remain shorter. Plant in the right corner stretched the most in the grow tent corner area. Wild guess - she receives less light because of the fan. Just measure PPFD in different parts of your grow tent and you'll see. You have to rotate plants. Try alternate position of the fan.

what should I do? history: 21.05. Water with full dose of fertilizer ... 26.05. Soil really dry - Water with half dose of fertilizer 27.05. Plants look super healthy (24Β°C 55-60%RLF) 28.05. started to droop (27Β°C 40-45%RLF) 29.05. even worse, (25Β°C 45%RLF), surface still moist

Make sure to get 10-20% run off each time you irrigate too, this is essential for plant/soil health.

Looks nice, I hope #3 will also be a succes, maybe she's just a lil bit shy and needs more time. Good Luck!

@Elyxion, Thanks, but plant 3 is not only late. She shows a lot of mutations. Leafs are really deformed, the whole plant is not symmetrical and kinda looks sick. It already started at germination with her strange asymmetrical cotyledons. I might give her a few additional days, but probably will remove her out of fear that the weak plant attracts pests that could also affect the two healthy plants.

@James, thanks. growth is a bit slower than I did expect seeing other timelapse videos from more experienced growers, but still ok for first grow I hope. Plant 3 does worry me a bit
