This beauts coming on nicely :-D I just moved it in to my SF 2 x 4 tent with the SF2000. Will be transferring in to a larger pot as soon as it arrives. I would like to know from peoples experience on autos, would you top, LST or anything else as the best way to increase yield?

Homemade. alwaysba dilemma with which qatly to try bit each grow space is different so difficult to generalise. for yield with no restrictions on time , we have many options , with autos its a whole new game .lpl i am currently trying different methods in my perpetual auto grow with lots of different strains too. decisions on the way to try eachbjnenhave been based on their general grow choice that I then try to coerce into a form of training. As we don't have a recovery time to enjoy using , we have to be quicker reacting with no damage to slow growth. inhave tried topping, fimking , quadlining and my own recent quad +1 version . Fornmy room i cannot go too high due to apex roof so need a squatter plant than a natural grown one would give. By using the quadline I am able to create a more even canopy with longer stacked colas. Once the initial shape is set , the lower nodes of each branch are stripped out too. this concentrateds all that energy to the mains we chose No popcorn or bushy , light swallowing mush that wsdtes lumens for us. I adapted it by not removing the 5th nodes and instead pulled them 90° horizontal until the lowers have caught up. this gives 5 huge colas To get the long donkey dicks. easier for airflow management too. topping the 5thbisba good method too but I hate losing such a vigorous growing tip now so at a push i fim but never waste it usually.

There are about 4 techniques people use to increase the yield of autoflowers and they're LST, Topping, SCROG, and HST. Of the four it's LST and SCROG that seem to get the best results, I would suggest topping but I just feel autoflowers don't have enough time to fully recover from it with their life cycle being so short.
