Week 2 it's started and now it's time for some experimentations with these ladies ✂️
During day 10 I've topped the Cali Snow and the Blue Dream and I will do the same with the other two. Usually I top autos during the second and the third week, after it's dangerous. I want to create a forest doing mainlining and scrog with all of them. It will be a mess in so tiny space 😂
Add some CalMag to the topped plants will ensure a good rehab 🤕
I'm really curious how other growers would have acted to do what I'm doing. So tell me your ideas!
I'll update every week two times, so I can read your comments and answer/act if people it's interested!
Day 12: Mexican Airlines is showing some orange dots maybe too much stress and she needs more CalMag. I think tonight I'll switch to 18/6 they need more rest and I want to go a little bit faster than the last time.
Day 13: All the girls seems to be healthy after the topping! I've switched the light schedule at 18/6 today and started to do LST and Mainlining on the Cali and Blue Dream. Very tough autos
Too much stress and light maybe? Should I use a little bit more of CalMag for this lady?
This is a Mexican Airlines on day 12, topped. I know these are really small dots, but I like to prevent.
Well, it's NOT extra nitrogen because you're not giving any to her, so cross that off your list... and it's NOT from touching the soil so cross THAT off your list. I'm wondering why you're feeding her calmag at this point anyway - calmag is used during flower and only if the plant tells you it needs it - it does nothing for plants in veg. With the Pure Zym and Great White, you're "improving" your soil but not feeding the plants at all... which isn't a bad thing as autoflowers don't want/need any nutrients for at least the first couple weeks of their lives... but you might want to think about starting them on some NPK nutrients - start with 1/4-1/2 strength and increase from there if they tolerate it well...
As for the small white dots, my inclination would be to tell you to keep watch carefully to see if you spot any bugs running/flying around. Have some Dr. Zyme's Eliminator at hand in case you do so you can get on top of them quickly.
I think you're risking a lot with your plans to top/mainline .. those should be left for photoperiods, not autoflowers... but if you've done it successfully in the past, all I can say is good luck!
When I have used SCROG in the past I threaded the veg plat into the net and topped/pinched them before going into flower, Some user will thread the plant into the net while in flower other just use it to create an even canopy for when switching they all stretch equally.
If this is your first time I would try and use it to create an even canopy then just let it grow out as is. I also tent to strip all mini bud sites below the canopy/net as they don't really grow into anything.
Good Luck!

@@@BSG420, let's hope to see it! 😆 This run will be more experimental for me because I've never grown 4 plants together in this little grow tent. However, thanks for the support ✌️
How often am I feeding my plants the nutrients listed below through each week? I'm a new grower. For an example, the Great White your using during week 1. How often to feed the plant it?
@Abovethetrees, i'm feeding nutrients once a week during vegetative and 3 times a week after the first week of flowering. Obviously you have to know what substrate you use. I made it on my own so I know exactly when to feed
@Abovethetrees, usually for each nutrient there's a feeding chart! If you using nutrients try to search for the feeding chart in the website of the product
