Day 17 beginning of Week3, Node starting leaf 4 not to sure if to top at 5 and start LST?
A Few questions is topping worth it on Autos?
Will LST help with yield in an outdoor grow?
Any advice welcome
No worries, maybe they didn’t get under a light fast enough. Would be a good idea to start them with a cfl as outside is temperamental. You can bury the stem quite a bit and it will grow new roots as you have a lot of pot space left. I did northern lights sensi last year :p
@NewbeeJay, Add a good few inches of soil, too about in between the 1st set and where the soil is now. Take care not too overwater while it grows new roots too avoid stem rot. Will help give your plant more structure for lst, if you Bend in 1/4 stages will be less risk of snap.
My NLA went from similar size to yours too over 1m in 10 days it’s the one on my profile pic I did no training on it though
Critical is saying I’m sexually mature and ready to start making you fat buds. If it was photoperiod you could flip it when your ready. if it wasn’t feminised auto those pistils sticking are the most obvious sign its female I think there called preflowers. Male plants would have balls there instead(pollen sacs). It’s just starting so keep with veg nutes till next week I would then do half/half with flower nutes( dependant on media). It’s gonna gain a lot of height over next week or 2 and you’ll see bud sites starting in a crown thing full of pistils. You wanna keep fan leaves from blocking light too these sites with LSTenjoy this is where the fun begins ! They looking great by the way and good luck bro
@ToadieK,I put the ties to help strengthen them as they started out tall and just kept growing tall, all had excellent root balls when re-potted at end of week 1
Lst good to start 4-6 node I start bending on 4 and works well on auto’s. Definitely worth it on outside plant too. I’d only top them if there doing really well/ good conditions and getting good light otherwise will do more harm. Lst will help a lot with new sites/penetration increasing the yield. Looking quite tall though
All plants look very nice. Some great training going on and thank you for choosing our Auto critical+2.0 to be included in your garden.
