This really is a beautiful plant. It's grown out in a way that makes it seem like I've been doing LST the entire time. I did end up doing some actual LST towards the end of the week because if this plant shoots up during flower it will out grow my space. The aroma is still getting stronger, so I had to turn on the air filtration system. I like to use plant tie downs for LST. The roll of tie downs I bought are Shintop 328 Feet Garden Plant Twist Tie which can be found on Amazon. These work really well if you are smart. You can run into issues later on if you aren't careful because as any stem grows it will grown around the tie. When it comes time to cut the plant and pulling the ties it becomes a pain. This time when adding a tie down I make sure to leave a decent sized loop. I drill holes going around the bucket that I loop the tie downs through and tie off. I've decided to add an extra step by adding soft tie hooks at the end to hold each stem. This should prevent the stems from growing with the tie downs embedded in them. I watered twice this week with nutrients both times. Went to a full on vegetative feeding dosage on all of my nutrients before I start increasing my watering schedule next week. I've noticed less runoff this week with my watering which is usually a sign that a plant is getting thirstier. Next week will be 3 feedings a week. By the time I get to flower I will be at a feeding every other day. With increased nutrients comes a higher TDS. It's a good idea to look for signs of nutrient burn and nutrient lock out. An autoflower getting full nutrients suddenly can sometimes react negatively, so any signs of stress will let you know if you need to back off on nutrients a little. Increased nutrients along with the normal growth cycle has started to awaken the smell of the plant. I've decided it's time to turn on the carbon filter fan. My temperatures have been pretty high with the highest hitting 85 degrees. I have two AC Infinity AXIAL 1238 fans which bring in fresh air and circulates the air in the grow space, but don't impact the temperature drastically. The carbon filter fan will definitely bring down temperatures to a reasonable range. For the fan and filter combination I use a Hurricane Inline Fan along with a Phresh Filter. This is the second grow I've used this combo for and get fantastic results.

@Denzul, Oddly enough this grow felt easier than my last. I was a little less attentive BUT in the end good genetics always wins out. If I didn't do a massive amount of LST this plant would be over 5 feet tall.

I had a lady who started off with weird twisty leaves like yours and while she took a little longer she gave me some of the best buds I've ever had. And tons of them. And it was so call watching it grow. It naturally topped itself. Strap in for a fun and rewarding ride my friend.

@Denzul,I'm seeing some of the best growth out of this plant. It's insane. It's been shooting up since recovering.

If you are lucky and attentive they can go 11-13 weeks with commensurate increases in yield, 10 weeks for sure. I have one left that is going past 9 weeks now and looks good. If they germ ok they are great plants Fare well

@CloudSlappy, Into our 71st day of it , 10 full weeks and still has some upright hairs remaining, so a week or two tops should make a 13 week grow or there about. Going to give the Six Shooter a try see if the good stuff came across ;) I think as long as the nuets stay in place, and the trics stay milky you can keep going only the amber trics say ... cut it down dude 😎 None yet but it aint far
