Do pre-flowers mean slower growth
MaryJones
started grow question 6y ago
My plant has started showing it's first few pistils (white hairs) in veg. Does this correlate with a decreased growth rate?

Hi there! No, I don't think that the pistil showing should slow down the growth at all and actually at the first stages of flowering the stretch will begin and she starts to grow even faster!

During the initial swap from veg to flower it will slow. But as shag said only briefly and then goes into the stretch stage.

Forced supercrop due to lack of water
Hello mates, one of my plants bent its branches due to lack of water (I wasn't at home for a few days), and three of them has broken, even partially RIPPED. I put a tape so it can recover from the damage. Should I worry about this? She looks fine after a day (straighten up).

What everyone's opinion on those biodegradable wood pulp seedling pots? Should I transfer the seedling out when planting or keep it in the pot and plant directly like it says?

Plant’s Gender
I’m growing 4 random seeds that are somewhere between 5-15 years old. I don’t know if they’re photos or autos; I don’t know if they’re feminized or not; and I don’t know their strands. My questions: How can I tell my plants gender? What exactly am I looking for and when?

How short of a time frame into Veg can one go without added nutrients.
Soil is 3 parts Roots organic og,1 part FFOF,1 part perlite, light bat guano, and microbes to the rootzone. I have calmag that I'll be adding to my feed but nothing else until I grab the nutrients I decide on. Safe to say I can go this short time (2 days) without added nutrients?

When to switch?
Thinking of leaving these one more week then maybe switching to a 12/12 light cycle and putting them into flowering. Do you think this is too early? I know they’re short but that's because of LST and the fact that they are Indica dominate I think

Harvest autoflower so soon?
Auto Gelato from Ganja Farmer. Its day 58 and the trichomes are cloudy and the pistils are red/orange. The buds are beautiful and fragrant but still pretty small. Can she really be nearing harvest in less than 2 months? Is bud size typically lost in favour of speed with autos?

Top the plant again or not?
Hello growers, I have a question, I already top this 2 plants and I’m doing lst, and later I’ll use the scrog, but can I top it again? Should I do it or isn’t worth it? I read it could lower the finally quantity yield, and that is some stress to the plant. Is it worth?
