Just snapped the main cola branch straight of B today so angry with myself. Don’t know if I should keep it taped up or see if it might top itself now. Clean snap off not even dangling by a thread. Don’t pick fabric pot up from the top when doing lst argh! A is still a little stubby compared to the rest but we all like a underdog so who knows. C’s new fan leafs are back to there original colour and has also started showing sights of flowering with A,B. D is still a week behind the rest and still flowers later, hoping she gets along with the temps and humidity. Tents getting full but still have a lot of height so happy over all. If you have any suggestions about my snapped stem please let me know. Have been using the GHE 3 part M/G/B 2/4 week- M- 2.5ml/gallon G-2.5ml/gallon B- 1ml/gallon 5/6 week- M-2ml/gallon G-1ml/gallon B-2ml/gallon Was using silicon at 5ml every 3 gallon unit they started flowering this week. Have read about using it when in flower and does not seem like a good idea. Smoke easy peace! Let me know what’s going wrong in my garden, Bless

Plants look really nice and happy. For veg your blue spectrum and bloom red spectrum. I'm keeping it simple actually your veg lights have a heavier percentage of blue than red it actually uses both/multiple spectrum's. Using more blue spectrum helps control the inter-node spacing on the plant stems keeping your plant a bit more compact. When your auto start to show a few pistils I would keep using veg nutrients and your veg/blue light until she does a bit of stretching. When shes half way through her stretch switch to your bloom/red lights and start using your bloom nutrients.She will be showing little tufts of white pistils by this time. In bloom it switches to a heavier percentage of red than blue. Red spectrum helps bud growth. If you switch to using your bloom/red lights too soon the red spectrum will cause your plant to stretch more. If that's what your looking for that's fine. Most auto growers like to create a nice somewhat even canopy by using LST type training to keep the light intensity as even as possible when she's growing her buds. Hope this helps.👍

Hi @Ray28! I would give it a chance to recover. If you have some aloe vera (in gel) this can help to heal the wound. Put some aloe vera around the wound and use some electric tape to fix the stem. A support (strings, bamboo stick) will also increase recovery chances. If after a few days the broken stem doesn't seem to grow again, then consider removing it, you don't want your plant to drive all its energy into that cola. Hope this will help, let me know in the comments section if you need any further information, and happy growing! 👊

@Ray28 . use both switches when blooming. or you will only use half your power of your light. more light = more yield. (in theory) Let your fan hit your girl direct and blow her around. you will get stronger stems. We don't want a push over 😄 it will stress your plant a bit to. witch is good. low stressing is safe on auto's ;) just take a look at outdoor plants. how hard the wind pushes them around. best of all you get a fan that moves so the airflow is not concentrated all the time on 1 place What nutes are you giving? those leaves are not a bug problem. Very nice first grow :) 👏👊

@Ray28, indoor plants in soil will still require some added cal/mag ;)

@@Aiiogrow, Just got up the list of nutes on week six I am giving to the gals. At my very first feed I added 5ml of calmag only to notice that was something I should not do with soil. Have been doing a cycle between nutes and water making sure not to over do it. Stay blessed

Nice your making good progress. Usually the first few weeks of bloom growers will say to themselves or question if their making good progress in bud developemet. In a few weeks you'll look back and realize it's really just a matter of time and patience. It's essentially a mid grow crisis in growers heads.

Hope your plant rebounded from the accidental topping! My quick one out grew my tent last week so I had to supercrop the top because it was touching the lights. I'm at 6 weeks and still no flowers, some pistils though. Happy growing and high yields!

You are in flower so whilst technically you can clone an autoflower, you would have to send it back into veg and get prepared for a weird looking plant. I would go for a repair although it is very late in the day. If you are taping a broken branch or main stem use grafting tape if possible. Allows the plant to still breathe whilst it is repairing and increases the chances of a solid repair. You can also use small wooden splints either side of the break for additional rigidity. Massively hardy plants and if you think about it ,we bend them, twist them, snap them, cut bits off here there and everywhere and they still bounce back within days.

I did the same thing about a week or 10 days ago. I taped mine up and it healed pretty well. Check out my pictures, it basically just made the stalk thicker on the bottom. In the pictures you can see where the stalk was broken and is hollow. It made the two side stems grow up quicker and now they are all about the same size.

The leaves have already dried up, it won't reattach the cola. As you said, not even hanging by a thread. It will act as a TOPing and produce side shots. We all have done it when learning to LST. Good luck mate

Hey man. From my own experience the leaves growing like that is due to the plant being constantly blown by wind, I grew mine outdoors and noticed after we had windy days that it was growing similarly. If your fan has speed settings try a lower speed or point the fan so it circulates air but isn't aimed directly at the plants. Hope that helps. Other than that they're looking great Good luck ✊🌱

Everything looks fine friend. Maybe should have started in a smaller pot and transplant her after a few weeks but that's nothing serious. Cling film for humidity is a good trick cause they like to be in 60%/70% humidity enviroment now. Give a little bit of Root stimulator for a good start 🙂 Ur temperature seems fine to me, Keep ur lights close enough to avoid stretch. Don't overwater to avoid droopy leaves. U can do a lot now in pre-veg. Other users will probably be better for getting good tips than me. Happy growing 😉
