Apart from total chaos, all is well in my tiny grow compartment. The plant seems to ignore the abuse caused by my inexperience, don't know if i'm lucky with the grow conditions or just amazing genetics. The buds underneath the light are doing amazing, Trichomes are developing larger 'heads' and are slowly turning milky. Pistils underneath the light are turning red/orange at a rapid pace. The buds above the light are developing trichomes and their pistils are just starting to curl, however, I would say they look atleast 1-1.5 weeks behind. I seem to have a reverse popcorn bud problem 😡 where I cant harvest the top and let the lower buds keep growing. This brings me to my dilemma, should I harvest when the lower buds(also the largest in this case) are done or do I have time to wait until the buds above the light are also ready to harvest? I would prefer a low percentage of amber trichomes on the majority of my harvest. Any feedback is welcome!

Loved this grow! A friend of mine is currently growing the same strain at day 40f. You seem to have a pretty good idea what you're doing now but I have a couple of recommendations for any future grows. IIRC you topped your plant, which some people don't recommend with autos. Personally I abide by this and just let my [friends] autos grow as nature intended, but I also haven't seen many instances with topping autoflowers leading to big problems. Usually just a bit of stunting which is easily fixed with kelp extract. I think your main issue was height by the looks of things, which is really annoying. The best way to fix height (imo) is by super cropping, bending branches to cause a stress and hormonal response. Not only does it mean you can limit the height of your future plants, but you can increase yield by doing this. Finally, i'd recommend some of RQS's fast flowering photoperiod seeds. Autos are beautiful in their own right, but if you want to do any HST like topping or super cropping then autos really aren't the best way to go sadly. Good luck on any future grows and if you ever need advice just drop me a message!

@The_Ending_that_dannyed, Thanks for the tips! I have already planted another quick one, so switching is not an option. I have looked into super cropping and it looks interesting. At first it looked a bit brutal but after some research I can see its benefits. I'l definitely try it out.

Looking good. It is crowded like you said, but she is looking very happy. I am also on my first and at similar time frames. Good luck with harvest.👌

Do your highest buds come above your light at all times as in this picture ? She's coming along real well aswell,

@phailure, it's a good thing those buds that don't get light still grow though

phailurecommented8 years ago
@Bstoner, Yep :( Since the last update they have even reached the top of my grow compartment which is about 10 cm above the LED's.

Hi this is a super fast version I wouldn't recommend topping her unless you have space issues as the 4-5 week is super important for development of good buds - looks like it will be a nice canopy 👍

@phailure, I'd suggest using some sort of LST instead of topping if you aren't experienced, and if you don't know growweedeasy.com i'd suggest to take a look there aswell ;)

@BigDaddyK,Thanks! I only have about 45 cm to work with so I have to keep it short. That and a chance of a higher yield convinced me to top it.

I received one of these as well, I'm interested in seeing how well these grow.

@phailure, I expect big things just from your name alone! I'm sure it will be a great learning experience at the very least.
