I only grow autos and I would never even THINK about topping them... You've got such a finite space of time in which your plant can "do it's thing" - if you stress them out as much as topping would stress them out, you're not going to have good results unless you are an EXPERT grower. The most I've done is LST (with one HST which was an accident)... Autoflowers are pre-programmed... let them do their thing in their own time... Your grow looks absolutely stunning - don't mess with success! 😊
thinking about moving them outdoors once the summer kicks in - anyone had experience doing this ? good or bad idea? My thinking is, I only have a 100w Mars TS1000, and its done great for the seedling and veg, but they have started preflower.
Sun is always better than artificial light! You may have to contend with more pests in an outdoor environment but this is exactly what I'm planning to do this year! I'm planning on some "travel" time for my ladies... outside as soon as the temps allow, back in the tent for the too-cool nights - until both daytime and nighttime temps are good.
Good luck!
would anyone bother trimming off the yellow fan leaves or just leave them? I have no issues with space or airflow - plus I kinda like the colours they have right now as they are getting near harvest time
noticed some new white pistil growth this morning - I have not seen that before on my other grows. Is this due to stress? I am so close to harvest now should I even be bothered?
It is the plant having one last desperate try to get pollinated/pregnant and is quite common with cannabis.
I would not worry about it, however I would be harvesting asap anyhow, they are plenty ripe!
thanks all! really enjoying this new hobby of mine! feel like and am starting to get some ideas now how to get them growing nice with out stressing to much over them :)
@eurorack, they are getting sooooo frosty and sticky now... if I just brush pass them and they touch my skin, I can feel and smell it for like an hour after :)
Your week 2's look like my week 6's of this strain! I'm thinking I should have bought a better light and that my tent temperature is a bit too cool, there are some beginnings of pre-flowers though it feels too soon. I've also got a helmet-head seedling that is on week 7 or 8 and its tiny like as if its trying hard to do stuff but on a miniature scale.
Looking good, and way way better than mine.
I'll be posting my Afghan pearl tomorrow and show all its yellow leaves, flowers look OK. Honestly don't know what it is, though I've been experimenting with light / ventilation etc to try keep my tent in a more stable temp and humidity range. Maybe my plant is retaining too much water and its messing with the roots (best guess).
