Coming to a close here with Tangie'matic. This grow has been so enriching! I decided to go outside of my comfort zone and head strong into the controversial world of topping autoflowers.
Some people swear by it, others stand by their stance that topping an autoflower will destroy any chance at a decent yield by stunting the plant in its already limited life cycle.
This plant has been a true partner throughout this grow process. I pushed with the top, she pushed back with buds. I pushed her again by changing her grow environment when I decided to prematurely move my grow tent into the basement. She stacked and fattened.
When I traveled and let her house get too chilly, she tossed me a couple of foxtails to remind me that I need to do a better job. I responded with more environment correction and she rewarded me by finishing up beautifully.
Great job! Even without the challenges that you had you really came through on this one in my opinion. Iβm going to switch over to ebb and flow for my next auto as you really can see a difference in the yield and quality.
Thanks for sharing
@blazin_skywalker, youβre a bad influence on me lol. I have a gorilla glue and an amnesia xxl autos that I went and topped this afternoon since reading yours. Truthfully I did it to my Moby Dick early on and the results have seemed pretty good so far.
@Silverback_Guerilla,There's nothing like enjoying the beauty of buds in their natural lighting. I felt like I was looking at her for the first time! π
This is a wonderful grow, well done π
But why is tangie purplish, isn't is supposed to be white ? I also have tangie she is in her 8th week and is frosty white lul π
@WiddieThePooh, Thank you! I think the biggest factor in the throw of color was the dramatic temperature fluctuations this poor plant endured. When I moved them into the basement to finish flowering, the day/night temperature swing was pretty substantial. This is just a theory though. βοΈ
What a yield truely awesome grow, great colours. Iβm growing 3 Tangieβmaticβs if I can get anything close to that per plant I will be amazed lol. Iβm hoping for 16 oz off 3 plants. Enjoy those flowers.
@DustyDuke, Thank you so much! Do you have a diary shared for them? I'd love to watch the grow! She's been curing for a couple of weeks now and oh my terpy word, what a beautiful smoke!!!
Hey! Im talking to u on Instagram..
I want to learn w/ ur diaries, dank plants π€
Its my first run, DWC setup.
By the way, great inspiration to me, thnx for share

That is amazing. What was your average indoor temp? Also I am using 8 gal current culture now. I have light leaks in between the holes where the tubes are supposed to go through, it leaves a gap. Did you have any issues with that? I bought a linear air pump and I have a feeling that brought my indoor temp much higher , Iβm sitting at 84F from 80F now which is not good at all.
