SCROG Grow

Looks like some kind of weed. Maybe its a good sign alot of other weeds can be beneficial companion plants to sativa I know for instance some people with living soil aim to have the whole of the top soil covered in cress because it benefits the plant and encourages good bacteria these are mostly organic grows :)

Sounds crazy but I think it came with the soil,

I have used SCROG on autos before and I will tell you that they have seemed to love it. It is really good for helping the lower branches and bud sites get more air and light giving you a better yield from top to bottom, so you get less of that popcorn bud. You should do it before they start to flower that way the bud sights get a much light as possible, and because I have noticed that the older parts of the plant aren't as flexible as the newer ones, and don't really like to bend as much. It will also provide more support for the branches which is great for increasing your yield. If you are thinking about doing it I highly recommend going through with it. It has only done good things for me, and it will do good things for you as well.

Hi mate, from what I know of autos they don't like a lot of stress. Topping, LST and SCROG is probably their limit. You shouldn't have any problems but as they have short veg stages its best to get any training done quickly so as not to stress her in flower as it will show in your final result. SCROG is just a technique where you separate the colas, giving them space to breath. Something that should be adopted in all grows. I hope this helps, good luck and happy growing.

And yes super phos rock works really well, imo. Though I use "light" supers. like 14% phosphorus. but it works good, fairly quick release. You can just sit it in water, add citric acid maybe a bit of soil/microbe stuff along with molasses, sugar or something to kinda "prep" it. Like one day, and it's good. Usually has good calcium and sulphur with it.

Soft rock phosphate and potash.

B.A.C. make an organic P/K booster. It is a single bottle formula and very concentrated, meaning you don't have to use much and a bottle will last many, many plants or multiple grows. And the best thing - it actually works! Bio Diesel by Sensi is another product, which is guano based and works very well, but half strength is plenty strong enough. Bio Canna make Bio Flores, that is a complete bloom fertilizer with elevated P and K levels, which works well too. Any other "raw" sources of P and K are very slow acting and for best results can be mixed with your soil a cycle before it is needed, that is, make the P/K mix in advance (10-12weeks) before you need it, so that the the soil microbes can break it down into a state whereby your plants can use it straight away.
