The stretching was significant. The plants were left unattended and one got burned.
I have broken 3 broken off of the biggest plant in mistake. The plants bounce back quickly.
One stem was bent by mistake in a “supercropping” fashion. It didnt splitbor crack the branch so i taped it up and will let it develop the knuckle.
I gavr them another feed of 8tblspn of flower girl and and 6tblspn of veg stage dr.earth nutes.
LsT took forever and was very needed. Plants were growing tall
They have been rotated to optimize growth.
Day 19 of flower:
I did my week 3 defoliation 2 days earlier than scheduled due to Personal time restrictions. I took away large fan leaves and any fan leaves that were going to grow towards The middle of the plants. I also cleared out the middle of the plants so that oxygen would flow better and humidity could be controlled.This is the only major defoliation that has/will take place for these autos. Other than that i will only defoliate what i cant tuck up untill week5 then i will do a light defo on fan leaves that are blocking bud sites while they finish develop
Lesson learned:
Dont tie plants to where they grow to mishapen. Make it grow slightly off pattern so that it still grows vertically but not bunching up and still exposing new budsites
Should i lollipop White Widow Autos?
I want my top colas to be large and i dont want to take the chance on my plants trying to expend energy on branches that wont produce good bud.
On the other hand, i dont want to stress the plants out to much by cutting the small branches off.
Go for it. Save a lot of trimming work. Larf buds are such a nuisance. Widow tends to have ball shape buds and the lower branches are like pin heads full of leaves.
I would plan to trim off half the amount on one day. And the other half in the next.
Checking trichomes for harvest:
I am noticing that Some of yhe plants have amber trichomes but i feel like my buds could still grow more than they have. Its also only week 7 of flower and this is not a fast flowering auto. Should i start flushing anyways?
Yeah @DoDrugs429 he's right. Still lots of time for her to developpe trichs and fatten up... Don't lok at sugarbleafs overall amberness, but ratther at the buds clear to milky/amber ration. There should be almost no clear trichs in the areas you looks. More arounds the predicted harvest time of your strain more or less. But the giving time is usually an indicator to start looking and prepare for harvest..
