When growing autos indoors in soil, what is the best time to top them to prevent them growing too tall for your tent?

Hi @JasbadSirron! I usually top autos at the 3rd node, once the 4th node has fully developed. This makes me remove a part of the plant, but recovering is faster when the lower parts has true leaves / has already developed new growth. Keep us up-to-date and happy growing π

Hello ! Just like athos told you the best moment is after the 4th node (3rd or less for main-lining) . The supercroping is a better technique as the plant can recover faster from the stress than with a simple toping that will slow her down a bit & it will allow you to controle height better ! Hope it will help you ππ

After the 4th node, removing the 5th (or most of it, if you are FIMing). In my last diary I FIMed an auto. In your case, I would use supercroping if you are having height problems

Any guess on how much longer until harvest? I'm aiming for 20% amber or more for the couch lock but I don't want to be waiting for trichomes that don't actually turn. Since this is an indica I'm sure I should see a transition from to amber it's just hard to tell if cloud or clearWeek 10

Plant is growing slow, maybe I'm wrong but I don't see a lot of difference since the flowering kicked in. Not as big as I expected. Looks very healthy and no problems but not a lot of evolution. She didn't get much sunlight the last 2 weeks so that's one major cause I suppose.Week 9

Any thoughts on these trichomes? Plant is only about 6 weeks through flowering, but the trichomes looks super milky and somewhat amber, and its about 80% red hairs. Strain is supposed to be an 8-9 week flowering period.
I prefer higher proportion milky, but this seems early....Week 9
