ultra micro auto main line grow

NSRDNTSNH Been reading on topping and mainlining autoflowers and whilst most dont recommend it due to the short veg time I'm very tempted to try it as it would be far easy to manage in my small grow area, and have 4 main colas instead

NSRDNTSNH was away 3 days and had to leave her on a drip feed which probably over watered a little but seems as though she didn't mind as had nearly tripled in size in that time! looking very healthy with only plain water so far!

NSRDNTSNH so after last week the plant took a slight turn for the worst, to begin with at the end of week 2 it had filled out the solo cup plant pot with roots far far quicker than i expected, and 3 days after repotting into a larger one it still wouldn't perk back up.. somehow the water runoff from the larger pot was quite acidic with a ph of around 5! I dont understand how as it is the same soil and water as the smaller pot it was in and the water ph was around 6.1-6.5 from the smaller one. I had flushed the soil as much as I can and the runoff is now around 7 ph but I don't know if it will become acidic again later on and now waiting for the soil to dry out as it has probably overwatered the small plant by now, however it is still growing just far slower than it should be.

NSRDNTSNH after some ph problems which slowed the growth for 3 or so days I had to flush the soil which definitely helped, initially i would have topped the plant once it had gotten a little larger but has seemed to handled it no problem at all, now the fun can begin main lining, still undecided how many bud sites/ colas to go with 4, 6, 8?

NSRDNTSNH despite the water runoff still low at around 5.5 growth still seems to be good, leaves are lush green and have been very perky

NSRDNTSNH slow but steady, first sign of pistils at the beginning of the week.

NSRDNTSNH think im done with lst and mainlining now, time to let her grow vertical as more calyx are popping up, started feeding bud candy now too. temps have dropped here over the past few days which hasn't helped

NSRDNTSNH pistils starting to pop this week

NSRDNTSNH had a big stretch and bulked on a lot of calyx and pistils for the first 4-5 days of the week but has seemed to slow down a bit the last two days, leaves are still very perky and looking healthy

NSRDNTSNH slowly gaining and sugaring up, waiting on the calyx to swell and ripen, been leaving her in the sun for a bit recently and just started using pk13/14

NSRDNTSNH started feeding plain water again now, buds slowly stacking and swelling not sure but i think maybe another 2 weeks left on her, wish it really could take 65 days as stated but knew that was never really likely

NSRDNTSNH still going, got a few white pistils still probably around 70-80% are orange/brown now and only the two centre colas are still producing new calyx and the tops, some trichs are beginning to turn amber now too

NSRDNTSNH good, expected the plant to be a little bit bigger despite the fact that I had intentionally kept it as small as possible, just wish it could take 70 days rather than 90 but still happy with the outcome000
