Very easy to grow, did not lag at all due to any topping, LST, defoliation whatsoever, kept stretching even after taking out all fan leaves. Looking back, maybe i could have had more main stems and less small ones, but the outcome seemed pretty good! 10oz dried (weight might go up more after the bud absorbs some boveda, dried a little too much). Extremely trichomy and well shaped unlike the pebble looking dull weed from dealers or some shops that used trimming bowls.

Looking back, maybe i could have had more main stems and less small ones, but the outcome seemed pretty good! 10oz dried (weight might go up more after the bud absorbs some boveda, dried a little too much because humidity went down to 40% the last 2 days). This went through a 14 day slow dry with great RH for the first 12 days. Extremely trichomy and well shaped unlike the pebble looking dull weed from dealers or some shops that used trimming bowls. 1/3 my plant was falling after removing it from the tent, too heavy right after harvest.

Some of my stems (1/3?) are 2-3" taller than the others. Should I bother 'fixing' this via LST, repositioning, or supercropping?

Repositioning taller plants on the side is the best solution at this stage of the growth.

Definitely able to be Chopped but depending on your preference. If you want more uplifting energetic then cut when all thrichomes are cloudy. If you want more sedative relaxing then wait until 30-40% thrichomss are amber color. If you want a good harvest and don't know what you like wait until you see 10-20% amber thrichomes. AC infinity sells a jewlers loop magnification thingy for like ten bucks. Buy It and overnight it. Thats the only way to truly know. I see many white hairs though and it looks like she's going for her last big swell and waiting a week or two could really pack the weight. But depending on the effect you desire she may need Chopped now. It's all about the thrichomes and their color, and what your preference is. Some push sativas further to get more amber since the strain is already uplifting Some cut Indicas early when only cloudy thricomes because indicas are already sedative Some cut when 10-20% are amber and rest are cloudy regardless of what kind it is. If you don't know cut a branch now dry it wait a week or two then cut the rest. Then you'll know which color thrichomes you prefer next harvest Please pick me as answer so i got a chance to win grower of the month contest. I would really appreciate it growmie. ๐Ÿ™

You can't really see clear pictures of the thrichomes. Yes you can see the amber ones on the sugar leaves. But that isn't what we want to see. We want to see the thrichomes on the buds, more importantly the ones in the cracks and crevices of the buds. It requires atleast 30x magnification and 60x is better. Ac infinity sells a 60x loop for ten bucks. Get one! Harvest your plant depending on the desired effect you want. Everyone has their desired effect, so what's yours? 100% cloudy thrichs for a uplifting cerebral head high. 30-50% amber thrichomes and the rest cloudy for a couch locked sedative body stoned high. 10-20% amber colored thrichomes and the rest cloudy for a all are good smoke. If you don't know harvest some at each phase of the thrichomes colors. Keep those labels so you know. When drying and curing is done, you will be able to smoke each of the different percentages of cloudy VS amber. Then you will know for next you what you prefer. But 10-20% amber and the rest cloudy is a good number to shoot for. Make sure to check all buds! Low and high from all sides of the plant and get a good overall idea of the plant. Don't just check the tops only. Goodluck.

@jpoo42, I can only speak from research I've done as I am not that experienced yet. Personally I wouldnt supercrop at this stage personally unless I was super comfortable and experienced and my plants were super healthy. The canopy in my opinion still looks great and she still has some stretching to go I think. My goals are to keep the environment stable, keeping air flowing, and keep up with defoliation for the light penetration and airflow. I think your grow is looking awesome though. Again, I am no expert though.

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

@jpoo42, That depends on your preferences! For now I prefer 80% milky or anything near that. More Amber will hit you harder on your body ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ’š

WOW! I only ended up with 12 grams from my Oriion F1 so your grow is totally impressive. Mine were just about the best 12 grams of weed I've ever smoked. It was covered in trichomes and tasted & smelled incredible. I'm totally jealous of your grow :)
