Quick start.Don’t need more watts at the moment.I will transplant my girl in 6,5 liter pot and transfer her in a Mars hydro grow tent,where I will train her with lst and maybe topping (we'll see though). 15w fan blowing 24/7. Both planted 6 days from the photos

Had some issues with mold forming in the bottom part of the pot”1L water bottle”. So I thought I should make a couple of new ones. For what so ever reason I started stabbing the bottom of the new empty bottle and stabbed myself on the hand😀.No comment. I think this is a result of an experiment I did to check the drainage of the pot. I’ll water a very little bit and let the girls to use all of the water near their old soil. I’ll also wash the old soil and let it dry in the sun. Gorilla looks kind of bothered these days. Hope the changes and the change of the fan's volume ,from 2 to 1 non direct,help. Thanks for reading. I’ll keep you updated for the health of the girls. After that do you think I should take out the tent and transplant into 6,5L a bit earlier?

Day 14: The lady is inside the grow tent with 250 watts. Kinda lost track of the days plus I’m impatient so I thought I was probably like end of the third. The girls look like they adapted and showing big progress.Check out my other diary with Sensi Skunk Auto. Day 20: I can say that LST has helped already my girl. Stronger main stem and a regular bush may look like this Royal Gorilla Auto by the end of week 4. After that I expect the flower production to start. Nitrogen toxicity isn’t a problem if you got worried from this update.

Day 21: Light defoliation and the cuttings go back to the soil. One side branch was so strong that took some skin(?) when pulling it. LST starts doing his part and the height is 6 cm from soil. Day 22:Saw the first pistil today.She looks really happy. Day 26: More branches can be tied down now thanks to the lst. From the side branches that emerge, I’ll cut the side branches on the first and maybe second node. They won’t become something special.

Day 28: I think the lady would kiss me is she could. Wide and healthy leafs that show me zero nutrient problems,stress and doesn’t have a problem with the light.The internode distance is optimal for many future colas. Day 34: Broke the main stem with lst.I thank the guys who answered my question,I selected the guy who answered first though,I think that's fair. No more readjusting the lst for now. The growth though...it's amazing. Top genetics in my opinion.

You can see in the pictures from day 34 that I snapped the main stem. Flowering started less than 2 weeks ago but I’m growing an auto. I applied some duct tape and waiting for results. The stemp hasn’t die off. Should I top though?

I wouldn't unless it starts to die. You probably saved it.

I’m about to lose it. Big progress both from the broken stem and the plant as a whole. I think though the accident was very stressful and it turn it into a hermie. Once the lovely community makes sure I got a hermie I will cut the balls off(no cap). Day 36, one day after the hermie incident.I cut the sacs of and keeping a really close eye on it.Like checking every hour on different lighting again and again. Main cola looks like neither full bounced back, nor losing the battle from the harm I did to her in the middle of the fifth week,the tape is still on. I'm anxious if I face a light stress till the full recovery of the stem. I can't LST thats for sure and I have an HPS lamp. I'm aware that my yields will not be the same as the true potencial of the strain but I'm sure the taste and high will be diffrent for me due to the work I'm putting in and the "stress" I'm going through. Day 37: No sight of sacs. Looks thirsty every day and sometimes I water twice.The soil is dry one the first cm.

I would give it another week if it is a hermie pollen sacks take a few weeks to form before they drop pollen. Just keep a close eye on it
