Hi guys, have a question for all of you, I have so many tiny branches (one of the pic shows you exactly what I mean), shall I leave them or cut them all? I can cut them at this stage of flowering? Also, I bought Bloombastic by Atami, shall I give it now? Or when (in Autos)? Thx

Hi there.. I usually cut the lower tiny branches, even with autos, so the plant can concentrate its energy into creating bigger buds.. the small buds (often called "popcorn") are usually not so liked by many people and often not very dense.. when it comes to bloom-boosters, or bloom-nutrients in general, i would wait until the plant has finished growing in length, and started putting their energy in bud-creation. In the beginning of flowering, the first weeks, they will still go through a strong stretching-phase.. because of this stretch, they will still require some Nitrogen, which is something most blooming-fertilizers lack (as high amounts aren't wanted during the budding phase).. Once you see she's not getting any taller, but the buds are getting bigger, then it's time to switch and add the booster. happy growing

That's a scary proposition with autoflowers. If you have an idea of how much time is left and that the growth has no chance of providing anything useful, its better to cut such things off early rather than later in the flowering process. I wouldn't cut anything at this stage, but a few stragglers way low on plant blocked off from light? maybe.... that's fairly high stress to be cutting the plant in bloom A little extra fluff isn't going to ruin yield. Just add it to the 'future hash bag' and throw it into freezer after harvest before it dries. Abunch of it will reduce yield of better buds, if too unruly, which i doubt for an auto. I can't help you with additives like that, sorry. I will say, that it can cause problems in the substrate's chemistry if the chemicals in bloomtastic doesn't mesh well with what is in your fetilizers. This is true of just about anything that isn't a complete system of products under one professional brand. I'm sure most of the time it won't be an issue, but the potential exists depending on what else you put into your substrate. Most of that stuff equates to GNC or holistic health sales tactics. If you see a benefit, go ahead and self-actualize or whatever, lol, but in general it's just placebo at best and a potential problem caused at worst.
