top heaviness
poke_smotstarted grow question 2 years ago
OK so this is my last remaining AK47 plant after losing a couple to heat stress. This was the runt of the litter and is looking ok but very top heavy at the moment. Any advice to make it a bit bushier down below? 😛
thanks!

Most of your energy will always naturally go to the top of the plant where it has the best chance of benefitting the plant. The best way to get better growth on the lower part of the plant is to bring it closer to the top. The easiest way to do that is to bend to top of the plant over as low as you can safely get it without breaking the stem. I would normally top it, but considering the health of that plant I wouldnt do it in this situation. Just gently bend the top and tie it down. . This will get better light to the lower nodes and it will trigger the plant to send more energy to them

Top it, that's the only way you have any chance now if building up the lower nodes. Top above the 4th. Good luck happy growing.

Newbs getting the hang of thingsOur soil PH has been staying around 7.5, I've been lowering the water to get it around 6.5-7. Keep it in a 5 gal bucket. Should I continue doing that or adjust techniques?
Using fan and exhaust to control air temp, should I be doing more?

Round leaves and running it through the free apps have proven useless.
Maybe a Pilea plant? Seed was in the dollar store soil I started the seeds in.

A non flipping auto?So I'm a day into week 6 with my RQS Northern lights auto, and still no signs of switching into flowering.
When should I start worrying that she might not flip by herself?
I got a young auto seedling in the same tent, so going 12/12 is hard :/
Any other ways to force it?
