RQS - Snow White (widow)

Well, I read that you're supposed to leave the LST til a bit later with autos but... I wish I did it a bit early, tbh. The stem has really thickened up and I didn't even scruntch it :D Usually, I'd bruise the insides of the main stems so it pumps a load of growth into it - but this has not been necessary. Simply bending it with some soft wire has done the trick. I've increased the pressure a little and I noticed that the bigger leaves are starting to cause some sweating where they meet... The level of transpiration is becoming noticeable, so I've upped the water a touch - I wonder how the roots are looking down there..? As such, I purchased a little fan for these guys (the autos are in with one CBD and one HG1) as, since I moved them under the TS-1000, they have started to really go for it. The little fan was less than 10 off Amazon, and it arrived broken.... Cheap Chinese crap, again. I glued it back together and it works OK off the mains, but it makes a noise and I don't want this when I am trying to be quiet, and I've also had this woman in my ear that I feel bad to tell to fuck off... She wants to be my gf but - you know... I don't want a gf... I grow these plants, and I like painting a lot and play video games in the evenings and basically have a full life in my own little world with martial art and my research, etc... but I do want to get laid... She's like, oh yeah I don't want to date, I just want you for "friends with benefits", she calls it - but dude... it is not. It is basically the same as having a gf but you have to also put up with how bad her dating life is every time you speak... Anyway - I noticed that there's some flowering starting on the 5th and 6th node today, as I was spreading out some leaves that I have read that I shouldn't cut off. So I'll put this as "flowering", even though I'm not happy and I want to re-veg..! She's nowhere near big enough..!!! But wow that was quick. Now I have experienced this for myself with autos - I will do things differently next time (I have a good selection of seeds from RQS coming for the summer - all autos). I am very glad I heeded the advice to not top this plant, as it would be so small - although I think I could get away with it if I use the TS-1000 and TS-600 from the start together, maybe, and good temperatures. At least with this White Widow S1 Auto variant. So - she's all tied down and in a nice, lazy S and I hope there will be a few colas, as the growth is nice and green and vibrant and pushing its way through the fans. It's very satisfying to see this :D The nettles outside are also growing the same - they are irrepressible! The LST, I - for some reason - put the plants in the middle of the pot... Idk why I did this... They ought to be in a corner. But no worries. It's going from the centre to the corner, and I plant to keep it going around the outside of the pot in a spiral, if it can make it, before stretch. Pinning down the branch leaves is a bit premature, but they are really obstructing the new growth - I wish I could cut them off, but I've read that I shouldn't do this. Another week and I'll re-evaluate the training, but atm it is fine to be low 'n' slow, baby..! :D
