Hey hey ๐
I just wanna thank you all for your advices, I do appreciate it a lot ๐๐
Gaby (named her Gaby the Gelato) ๐ง grew stunningly in week 2, I was very pleased!๐ sheโs luscious and vigorous!
I read each one of your advices and decided to make a decision whilst bearing in mind each persons advice!๐ค
I decided to take a risk and I topped her ๐ I will then tie down her branchโs in and X shape due course and defoliate her depending on how she responds โ๏ธ The other option is to let her recover and then cut the first set of branches off and mainline her๐ค will have to see how she recovers! ๐โโ๏ธ๐ผ
Whatcha guys think now that Iโve topped her? Cut off the first two branches and mainline/flux?
Iโve fed her some microbes from a local brand - keen to see how it goes โ๏ธ๐ฑ
Edit - between topping and the next day Iโm pleased to say her growth is looking good so far, letโs hold thumbs!
Thanks for reading folks ๐๐ฑ๐
Okay, sheโs compact with tight inter nodal spacing - Iโm thinking of fluxing this lady!
Iโm nervous because I donโt want to stunt her, but feeling brave. Any advice or tips? Iโll consider mainlining instead!
You got more seeds? If so donโt be worried you got to always be trying to advance your knowledge just do it whatโs the worst that can happen :) ๐ฑ๐
@Zollies_zn,for that i have not sollid answer my friend if they are not showing white pistels as small as they can be when they start then your to late but normaly you have still time if you dont see any signs of white pistels you can up the light๐๐
@Silky_smooth, awesome, thanks a lot, Iโll give it a bash - Iโm an unconventional person in any case ๐คช Iโm keen for this! And shot for the tip about the 24hr lighting! Last one, if I switch to 24 will it affect my other flowering autos?
Keen to see how this lady turns out!
I've only grown 2 autos so far & got the courage to top them both last season, was only on the 4th node & both did well.
Have heard the fastbuds get a bit bigger than most autos, so I'm sure she'll fill out nicely.
Will keep an eye on this one & maybe get brave with my next batch. :P
@Shinsimilla, Thank you Shin! i appreciate that, i'm very excited to see what happens ๐ been such an enlightening experience doing this training๐
Hi there,
Your lady looks amazing :) i did the same technique as you, trying to create an X shape plant.
And that on my first try, can't say i'm not a little bit worried ghehe but time will tell mate!
Happy growing,
Grtz- BB
@Zollies_zn,
Naah, I thought because of this excessive training that your plants are going through, you might have needed some nutes, to speed the process up. Good luck brother, I'll be following this grow.
@WiddieThePooh, I donโt use any nutrients, but Incase of a deficiency I have biobizz grow and bloom on hand!
I use organic soil with organic amendments - let me know if you want a list of that perhaps?
And as you can see so far the โdont mainlineโ remark is a joke right because she looks very amazing my friend๐๐๐i wish you a bountyfull harvest๐๐๐๐๐
@Silky_smooth, 100% ! You were spot onโ! and thank you, its been such fun training this beautiful strain๐ can't wait to perfect this method ๐ thank you for the good wishes Miss, much appreciated ๐๐
Hey there!
Thanks so much for growing our genetics :)
Good luck with your Gelato Auto ๐๐ผ
Let us know if you need any assistance
Happy Growing! ๐๐ฑ
Hey, I used to think that I couldn't top or LST autoflowers because of chances of stunning her but honestly, nowadays breeders select such good genes from prior genetics of autoflowers that it can be done and they will reward you with large harvest.
