The devil is in the details

@Sweet_Seeds, Hey Apolo, Thanks for the reply👊. I've grown many autos from lots different seed banks and I've topped almost all of them around 90% I'd say. Of that 90% most took to the topping very well, but there were a few that didn't like it and stayed rather stunted. Most of the plants that I topped took right off and more than doubled in size, you just don't get one large main cola you get alot of med-med large sized buds. I've reached the 3-5 ounce dry per plant quite a few times in the last couple years, my biggest weight for an auto was 5.89 ounces dry from one plant, Green Gelato auto. Look up my To Top or not To Top post as an example, I did everthing exactly the same except for topping and training. I haven't topped this plant because it's my first time growing this strain, but I will consider it the next time I grow this strain for sure. The plant is growing strong and starting to change colour a bit, looks like it'll be a good one!!! Hope all is well!!

@northernMike, Happy New Year ;) We do not recommend any technique that may create stress. Autoflowering plants have a defined life cycle and you will not be able to make up for it. Perhaps, you can apply LST. This technique involves little stress for the plants. Sweet smokes! - Apolo

@Sweet_Seeds, Hey Apolo, Thanks very much for the reply, I'll take care not to overwater and go easy on the nutes.I'll be using Big Cannahuna nutrients at half the rec. amount to start. I was wondering about how this strain takes to topping and training, if topping is even rec.? thanks again. Have yourself a Great Christmas and a happy New Year!!!

@Cyrusdavirus, NICE!! I'm sure they appreciate that 👍👍..

@northernMike, I give away 100% of everything I grow to family and friends

@Cyrusdavirus, Thanks, It's my first red strain so I'm pretty pumped about this grow, seems strong so far. If you don't smoke any, what do you do with it?? Make edibles or just gift it away??

@Cyrusdavirus, This light has no dimmer and it is very powerful, I try and lower it a little and the plants react right away, shying away from the light with the leafs curling a bit. So I leave it 3+ feet above the plant the whole time and let the plant grow up to the light, still experimenting with this light, not sure if it's the light or some other factor that keeping my plants small and compact, maybe the food or both. Switched the Bruce Banner to 100% organic with Dutch Sciences and we'll see if that makes a difference from the last one that I used Big Cannahuna nutes on. Always an EXPERIMENT😶😐😑...

@Ju_Bps, Thanks👊, she started to flower very fast!!!

@ZoobZoob_farmZ, Thanks again, so far so good!!!

@Bostongirlgrows, She's got some colour, not quite as red or purple as some I've seen on GD, but she's not done yet and I have a few more seeds so maybe I'll try again before spring arrives. She stayed very small but the buds are putting on the weight everyday💪...

@northernMike, she may not be dark- but she’s thick 🌱

@northernMike, Anytime my friend. I’m following along now 😉

@Seed2WeedYT, Thanks very much, Right back at you!!!! This plant is growing strong, starting to change colour now, looking good!!! I'm a little late with my post but I'll be caught up by tonight, thanks for stopping by the garden👊👊..

@Tropicannibis_Todd, When I first started growing at my other house I had the same problem, this is what I did. I filled a 1 gal. glass pickle jar with water in the tent and put a car battery warmer around it, plugged it in to a timer so it didn't run all night. Got alot of humidity from the jar and the warm water helped keep the temps up in the tent, just an idea, you can modify it a bit if you want but it worked well for me. Later!!

@Secretflower, Thanks Much👊, Everything is good!!

@Metatronix, So far so good👍. Thanks again!!

@love_2_grow, Right back at you👊..

@Ju_Bps, Thanks again, Super excited about this one, first time growing a red strain so I'll need all the luck that I can get👊..

@northernMike, she’s pretty. Buds look great all trimmed up 🌱 👊🏻

@DEVS_GENETICS, She's a beauty that just loaded up with frost in the last couple weeks, The end is in sight, can't wait to sneak a test puff😋...

@Inganjawetrust, Just put them in the jar the other day, the smokes not bad, a little early to tell, but I'll be wrapping a papaer around some very shortly for the second smoke test😋..

@MrGrowthSpurt, Thanks Very Much👊. I have approx. 3-4 weeks before harvest, the reds and purples are making an appearance so there's hope yet, fingers crossed!!!

@Mrs_Larimar,Thanks very much👊👊, Just wish it grew a little bigger, maybe the next one😵..

@northernMike, we will be watching to your next try and I'm sure it will be even better 😎

@HappyWeeds,Thanks very much, just wish the plant had gotten a bit bigger, it had a very small root ball, so I think that was the problem. I have a few more seeds , so I will try again.. Later!!!

@MagicoVerde, thanks👊.. just wish it would have been a bit on the larger side, Maybe next time😏..
