Grow Questions
jpoo42 week 7 started grow question 4 weeks ago
Adjust taller stems or no?
Some of my stems (1/3?) are 2-3" taller than the others. Should I bother 'fixing' this via LST, repositioning, or supercropping?

Plant. Too tall

training is fine... wouldn't take much to even out a couple inches here or there - a little extra lean with a few might even space things out more or not? but, i'd avoid the supercropping unless it's getting light burn.

assuming a relatively happy plant, a little stress should not cause an hermie. canopy looks good to me.

No...just let it grow naturally, it will mean less stress for the plant.

Please go to 18/6 or 20/4 at absolute most........ALL PLANTS NEED SLEEP!
Growing at 24/0 is SO wrong on so many levels in my learned opinion (horticultural degree).

Let some well considered LST be your friend.

Damn dude....that Orion is SICK! Well-done! I've been scared to top these autos, but yours is looking fantastic! I may try topping on the next grow (Strawberry Gorrilla Auto). Our Orion turned out nicely, but was finished seed-harvest in just 62 days. Crazy you were able to take yours out to 10+ weeks. Nice work!

@jpoo42,
Thanks jpoo...our Orion was only 23' tall with super tight buds and was a beaut, but not in the same universe as yours. Well-done! I look forward to seeing how your harvest turns out!

@SirVerdePollex, thank you, well appreciated :) this is my first grow and i think what caused it to grow longer/taller (tallest stem currently 38 in) was all the training (LST), and also DWC maybe? Not sure what else though but this plant seems to be one of the biggest here :) Topping was great, noticed no lag time whatsoever. I did follow the topping advice of not cutting the last node off, just roll off the baby leaflet pair with your thumb (there's a yt video on this somewhere), and it didn't stop the growth at all
