People don't usually top Autos. Might want to avoid that on your next grow and see if there's a bigger yield. I feel like I could have had higher yields on my last mainline photoperiod grow if I'd spent more time in veg. Same idea. Looks like some nice buds though!
@user78235, good idea. I usually spend a loooot of time with my plants. My next grow I want to set up a DWC hydro system and a very simple training program and try to make it easy to maintain. I'm thinking about doing an auto as well to make it even simpler but I have some Zkittlez Glue and White Widow fem seeds that I want to try first lol
@3lementa1, thank you, yes I know, but until now it worked pretty well with topping. Sure, after I topped, I will never know what it would have looked like without topping. But I think the problems are more related to my rather wet soil (due to the auto watering), or to fertilizer problems (too few? too much?). But I want to keep my simple setup, so that I just keep on trying to find the strains that can cope with it. Until now, it's only Zamnesia's diesel automatic.
Don't be surprised about all the perlite on top of the earth. It's just because the light perlite of the top 1-2cm swims up when watering the pot at the start. Below, it looks much like regular BioBizz Light, with just a little more white perlite spots.
