I made a mistake this week. I wanted to try with the LST but after two days, with the plants getting bigger and bigger, I realized that the 3.5 l pots are too small for this technique. So I removed the hooks and this is the result: crooked but healthy plants. π
SO I don't know what to do: repot and continue with LST? unfortunately, however, you have already advised me against repotting the autoflowering plants, I would not strain them yet. Or put on a normal vertical brace? I'm more inclined for the second solution, but I think I should start with another technique anyway. Defoliation? Topping? Main lining? I don't know..help! π·
thanks for the advice and good growth to all! πβοΈ
@Filou, in the wild nobody picks leaves. I lst & defoliation a little mid bloom. But depends how she grow. Take a look @ my g.g autos r pretty big under LED
@BDD_RJP,Oh ok! I thought to do it later ... it also depends on how the growth goes, the Gorillas will be small when they start to bloom..I thought I would use some defoliation, topping and maybe LST..but I'm still not sure of anything π why you don't?
@WeedTheNorth, yes, I have a small garden and I put 6 plants .. I don't know how it will happen with the neighbors but ... who will live will seeπ
my english is google translation π
Hey also from Belgium here ;).
Following you so I can check up on your first grow, while I'm doing mine aswel. :D
I think we started growing about the same time, so hopefully we can learn something from one another.
Have a great grow and a happy 420!!
@Tikihoofd,hey! cool, I started following you too! which part of belgium are you from? me from LiΓ¨ge. I saw your diary, beautiful! for the moment I grow outdoors, but I think that for the next I will do autoflowering indoors by buying some material. It is certainly a type of grow more suitable for this country. I also wish you a beautiful growth!!! πβοΈ
Wish you a great grow dude!! When I put plants (in general) at the sun, i realize that the plastic pot get too hot! I do put a felt (fabric) around them, so it takes the sun instead the pots. Roots doesn't like high temp. I do suggest you protecting them! Also, small holes on the pot increase oxygen rate on roots, they need it.
Wish you a great grow!
Youβre a bit late for re-potting but I see you have multiple plants in 3.5L pots. You could re-pot one and compare in yield after you harvest.
Next time take much bigger pots, I use minimum 16 to 26L.
Good luck!
