Dark Devil running out of head space
The_Chef_420started grow question 4 years ago
Help I am running out of head space with these Dark Devil Auto. Removing the greenhouse is near impossible and they just started to show signs of flowering. Should I top her or will that affect her sex bc of flowering? Theres no pre flowers yet. Thank you

the same thing happened to me too. try to do everything so that you don't have to toping. I had to top her because she was too tall and she was burning for a lamp. It caused her so much stress that she didn't get over it. For me, I strongly do not recommend cutting the top of the automatic at this stage of flowering. Good luck & let it grow!

I recently topped an auto that was younger than yours and it hermied on me. I think autos are very sensitive to topping late in veg or early in bloom. I had a similar issue as you and I was able to tie the cola down and get it away from the light, but you haven’t begun flowering yet and the will at least double in size. Perhaps auto cropping may be the was to go. See what some of the experts here have to say. Good luck!!

Hight ProblemsI’ve got 3 plants in my tent, but they’re all different heights. To compensate, I’ve hung my light at an angle, so one end is closer to the smaller plants.
My question is: Does this help, or am I better off keeping the light level? Any tips for dealing with uneven plant heights?

Buon giorno weed doctors, did anyone have similar uniform chlorosis at the top or maybe knows what's up? What could be the reason and the solution? ThIs this some sort of immobile nutrient deficiency or excess? Could this be caused by heat and light stress? She is 80cm tall and almost touches the lights in the tent. I'm usually suffering from Calmag and Nitrogen issues and haven't yet experienced yellowing from the top. Thanks

How to manage a tall plant with a thick stem in week 1 of flowering?One plant I ordered online was pre-grown. Now, it’s about 20 cm taller than my other plants. At the top, the taller plant gets more than 1000 PPFD, while the lower canopy gets about 500 PPFD. It’s currently week 1 of flowering. The stem is too thick to bend down.What would youdo?

Good timing or terrible decision?Hey everyone,
my 60×60×180 tent was getting packed. In order not to take my Tropicana Cookies Auto out, I tried to lollipop it.
Do you guys think it has a chance to produce some decent buds on top or did I ruin the plant?
It’s day 30, I’d say pre flower?

sehr unterschiedliches WachstumDie Rechte hört nicht auf in die Höhe zu wachsen mehrere Zentimeter täglich! Sie ist mittlerweile über 70 Zentimeter hoch und langsam kann ich die Lampe nicht mehr höher hängen. Die Linke hingegen wächst fast garnicht mehr und sieht auch etwas traurig aus. Beide gleich alt.
