MAUI WOWIE Autoflower

- Planning to employ some LST shaping in the coming weeks, no topping/FIMming. Shaping the plant is more for space control. *** this autoflower is hard to think about applying any shaping to, as the Nodes are right on top of each other, in a very short section of Stalk. We’ll See where it goes. Feb 2nd - the leaves from the 7th node are visible. Hoping it flies into Stretch real soon. -New Growth around the stalk and leaf junctions is full speed ahead. - committed to feeding nutes and the levels are going up each batch. -Bigger feeding circles on the soil, trying to make good use of the root space available - feeding tonight & will check activity under the canopy -molasses is a nutrient every other meal; not tonight. ** Last 2 pictures show there are branches to start LST with, and to find some sense under those leaves ** Feb 3rd - trimmed the big fan leaves and exposed Bud sites. - found the L plant main stalk to be close to 45degrees, in the wrong direction. Stood it tall with a stake. They are now equal in height while the R plant is slightly more developed. - I’m giving the main stalk a couple of days to continue with it’s own kind of upward reach, And it is happening - LST applied by the weekend. * made a decision to feed these two autoflower plants at 50% of recommended Veg/Flower nutes; including Rezin, when we get there. Moving them up slowly. Molasses, cal/mg & rapidstart will see use as needed. It’s an “Economy-driven decision” from a sudden curiosity about autoflowers. (And an empty tent lol) At the rate they are picking-up speed now, I will be watering them as one soon enough. Feb 5 a.m. - applied some LST to begin gently shaping the plants for my smallish tent. 24x24x64 - L plant has been kind of wrapped around the stake, to provide something to help lever the branch in the direction I need. Given its funny angle coming out of the ground, it’s an improvised rig that’s working so far. - R plant no issues - hard to see in the pics, but the plants main-stems are anchored to the back of the pot, and they are being gently pulled / shaped towards you. PM - LST completed & successful in finding a nice pattern for the branches on the plants. More of a horizontal orientation with Minimal loss of bud sites and leaves. No hard-bends but over the evening a shape was applied Feb6 - In the morning the plants looked spectacular after their LST Session last nite. Leaves have rotated to the lite and away we go. Leaving it as is for a few days to accommodate my bullying... “impressed with these auto’s” & the height is back to 4-5”
