HerzundLeidenschaft Welcome to my diary! I’m starting the tracking right here in Week 5 with this beautiful Super Boof XL Auto by Sweet Seeds.
She has shown incredible vigor from the start and is currently responding amazingly to some heavy training. Who says you can't push an autoflower to its limits? 😉
🛠️ Training & Technique (LST & Topping)
To build the ultimate canopy before the stretch really kicks in, I’ve put in some work:
Topping: I topped the main stem to break apical dominance. She recovered incredibly fast without any signs of stunting or shock!
Low Stress Training (LST):
I’m using green plant ties to pull the branches outward. This opens up the center of the plant, maximizes light penetration, and ensures all side branches get equal exposure.
📈 Current Status (Week 5)
Vigor & Health: Extremely vital, with a beautiful, deep, and healthy green.
Structure: Thanks to the topping and LST, she has a perfectly flat, wide, and symmetrical canopy with strong side branches.
Transition: We are right at the turning point where she’s preparing to transition into flower. The foundation is set for a massive screen of buds!
Growing this one with real passion and dedication. Let's see how she handles the stretch in the coming days! 🚀
