So I was nervous about how this grow and diary would turn out, which I why I am starting it so late into the grow. But thanks to a few friends on here, I decided to go ahead and post it. I’ve mainly used bending to keep as much of the plant exposed to light as possible, since I can only give her about 17 hours of light (4 hours w/ 400w MH & 13 hours 300w LED & Sun System 150). I really like how the lower growth is coming along. This is my 1st auto grow, practiced with some bag seed last year, so any advice is welcomed.
@CaciqueCayacoa, well that makes me feel better. My last grow I felt I could’ve gotten more outta the taste, but then like you said genetics plays a big part
@Cannabisqueen, I didn’t want to fim her because I’m starting to see pre-flowers. So far the spiral technique has worked....gotta start bending her around
@DougFresh,awe! Wow that's awesome to hear! Some autos don't like being FIM but some do; it's a grey area in the auto world. Most say just don't do it, I say try and see what happens aha :)
Gladness to know she is also happy with her trim;)
My AvT is doing my super well with the FIM I gave her she is 6 weeks into veg no flower yet
Looking solid. She's filling out nicely. Does a 12/12 light cycle have a negative effect on autos in flower...like limiting potential yeild? And will it kick and auto into flower? #noobquestions
@TheOutlawBubbaKush@goarilla the 12/12 light won't stop autos from flowering that's the one beautiful thing bout autos, set life cycle. I was nervous bout putting the girls under 12/12 instead of 16/8, but they seem to like it. Both the AvT and my diesel auto(no diary) have done very very nice under 12/12. Not sure if it's due to the nutes or it being a 400w HPS. Less light will definitely equal less yield but I definitely can't complain with what I have and what they should produce
@Jaindoh, thanks man! But accidentally topping her made me ultra nervous. I like her structure at this point. Not sure if I stunted her pre flower stretch (probably did) but we'll see how it goes. If she does start stretching, I’ll tie her down rather than bend
mine and my buddies were a bit on the light side as well, appears to be a sativa pheno vs indica pheno thing... been trying to keep temp/humidity down and circulation up
im just gonna either trim heavy and use all that trim or leave it on cause its so sticky havent decided XD
