Topped and created an 8 cola mainline, the overall growth was very nice, but I am at crossroads with these autos, less is more with them. The last run without all this training performed so much better!

The buds just never fattened up, these were a bit airy, next time I just let them rip and see how it goes. Started with 540 Grams / Yielded only 102 Grams, was a very tight trim, buds do look very good! I will grow these again, very soon. These buds will cure for another few weeks, the smell is awesome!

damn bro i like how you trained these things, they are looking good!๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿค™๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Thanks @Pajersey13, aside from the excess potassium i think they would even look better, I hope to carry that training process over to my MrJones FastBuds Gelato Grow #4 Grow, The buds at least are starting to get chunky though :0), just do not want to flush out all the microbes but suppose I will if by Tuesday they do not look better! You're Gorilla Glue looks badass and I am very excited to each the fruity pebbles grow, I may have to try that soon.

That tie-down training is on Point! Looking awsome!
MrJones

Thanks, @Dday314, just took a peek at them after work today and they are all pointed up and growing - should be the last real training I have to do to them they should just produce some buds, and hope they get chunky, going to start 5 fresh seeds today and plan on the same training process, will try and document close - thanks so much for the like and looking at the diary :)

Ive got 2 auto seeds I usually dont top but I wanna try, this gives me hope.Was nervous if I topped more than twice i'm stressing her out. Do you top in more than once place a session or do you do 1 and allow it to recover?Obviously this would only occur the second or third time topping.
MrJones
MrJones
@ChefSpliff, I have always been ruff on my Autos, all I have truly grown, until recently "My Jedi Kush Grow" I find as long as the plants are growing fast then you can ruff them up a bit, this process requires only toping the main cola 2 times and the 2 side branches directly under the 1 time, truly whole process and recover should be less than a week, Week 4 seems to be the sweet spot, as in week 5 these girls often flower and the stretch is used to drive the manifolds - again this is only the first 2 attempts at this but will know more after these next seeds get planted. I am also in the culinary industry!

BTW These techniques really shine on photos. While I don't Top often, rigorous Lst does a damn good job.Happy Growing brotherโœŠ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Looks nice and frosty ! How did you find your results topping and mainlining an auto vs just LST? Did you find it created a lot of stress for it or handled pretty well? Looks like a successful grow to me!
CloneKingz
CloneKingz
@MrJones, Hmm gotcha! I have always topped autos for some reason, should run one without topping and just lst to compare. I just recently switched from a peat mix with plastic pots to fabric with coco/perlite and love it. I find my plants are able to build bigger root systems and quicker than my old soil setup. Good luck with the ventures sir!
MrJones
MrJones
@@CloneKingz, I have been brutal on auto flowers, the ones that grow hard anyway, have to pick and choose your warriors carefully, this plant was topped but not mainlined, you see I let it get 6 nodes, the side branching on the 3rd and 4th node was really nice so I topped above the 4th node, then topped the 2 sides branching there and again on the side branching at the 3 nodes, each one of the 4 side branches produced 2 colas that I fashioned into the manifold look, all this was done before the end of the 4th week, by the end of the 5th week we had flower and the stretch - honestly they looked great but the yield was meh. So I will try the same process in an upcoming Cream mandarin Grow, thinking to grow 2/3 plants in COCO Coir using MEGACROP and see the difference between, I am just not a huge fan any longer of salt-based nutrients. Setting up a drain system to measure run off, PPM, EC seems like a pian, but nothing ventured nothing gained.

So beautiful ๐Ÿต๏ธ I was thinking to grow this strain but I have small growroom 40x40 cm, so I have decided to grow fasberry now. If it's not hard for you, could you please measure width of the plant? Maybe I will try this strain next.

@MrJones, 14 inches across not so big for my growbox. I think it will fit perfectly. Thanks for your answer and your dairies really cool. So detailed and interesting :)
MrJones
MrJones
Thanks! @VanillaBud, the way I have this plant trained it is about 12 inches high and 12 to 14 inches across, each but is about 4 to 6 inches tall and 2 to 4 inches around - I think I could have yielded more with a SCROG doing 3 plants in 5-gallon Buckets - I do love the way it looks as well - thanks again for stopping by and taking time to comment!
